One of the first things we think about before adopting a puppy is always: "What name do I choose for my dog? ?". To do this, we try to think of their most striking physical characteristics, personality traits or their behavior to see what type of name can best fit.
Choosing a name for our new partner is always a challenge, and all options are valid as long as they are to our liking and are not confused with everyday words. However, it is true that it is recommended to opt for those shorter names because dogs are animals that tend to memorize words with few syllables much better. Therefore, in this article on our site we share a complete list of names for dogs with 3 letters, beautiful, fun, original and for all tastes.
What is the best name for a dog?
As we have mentioned, the best name for a dog is one that has no more than two syllables We can choose three syllables if we want, but depending on the animal, it may take us a while to get it to internalize it. Thus, one-syllable nouns are ideal, because they are short, easy to pronounce, and therefore easy to learn. Of course, do not forget to choose a word that you really like, cannot be confused with another in common use and is pronounceable for all the people who live in the home. Although it seems obvious, it is important to keep in mind that all members of the family must say the name in the same way.
Another very useful tip for choosing the best name for your dog is to opt for those words that begin with a strong consonant and end in vocal. Why? Very simple, both dogs and cats have a much more developed sense of hearing, so they have the ability to capture many more sounds than we do. For this reason, words beginning with a strong consonant capture the attention of these animals faster and faster, making it easier for them to memorize their name.
Finally, and once the best name for the dog has been selected, it is essential to avoid yelling, punishing or reprimanding so that the animal does not associate the name with negative stimuli. Apart from this, we do not recommend opting for this type of training in any case, since it has been shown that positive training is the one that obtains the best results, since that allows to keep the dog stimulated and encourage his desire to learn.
