Advice for rename your dog
When looking for an original name for your dog, you should follow some basic advice so that the process is quick and easy for your pet to understand, and yes, you can change your dog's name.
For this, we will use 2-3 syllables that are easy to remember and you should pay attention to do not choose a name that your dog confuses with other words such as "comes", "sits", "takes", etc. Also, it is important that the name is not also that of another pet or family member.
Anyway, to improve the dog's understanding and adaptation to its new name, we recommend that you use one that can somehow remember the old one, such as:
- Lucky - Lunnie
- Mirva - Tip
- Guz - Rus
- Max - Zilax
- bong - Tongo
