The Disney characters have been part of almost everyone's childhood, and who hasn't grown up enjoying from Mickey Mousse's adventures, been thrilled after rescuing the 101 Dalmatians or tried to catch his toys in action, like in Toy Story? Over the years we forget part of the characters from those movies that we watched so much as children, however, we can remember those moments by selecting the name of our favorite drawing and designating it to our newly adopted dog.
If you have just decided to share your life with a puppy and you are still not sure what to name it but you would like it to be part of W alt Disney's history, keep reading and discover in this article of our site the most suitable names of Disney characters for dogs.
Tips for choosing the perfect name for your dog
Before delving into the list of names of Disney people for dogs, it is essential to review the basic tips to choose the most suitable one. In this sense, dog educators and trainers recommend opting for simple names, easy to pronounce, short and that are not confused with words used for specific commands, since so the dog will be able to internalize it without problems. So, given that most Disney people have names with few syllables, practically any option on this list is perfect.
On the other hand, if among the short Disney names you don't know which one is the most suitable for your dog, we advise you to look at the appearance and personality of your furry companion As you already know, many of the cartoons are dogs, so you can take advantage of this fact to observe the coincidences between the characters and your dog. In this way, if for example your dog is a Dalmatian, Pongo or Perdita are ideal, and if your dog is large but does not have a breed, Pluto is a good choice.
The dog's name is a key tool in the socialization process and, in general, in all its education, so choosing one that simply sounds good or looks nice to us is not enough. As we said, it must be practical and short, being the most advisable that it does not exceed three syllables
