My Keeva is somewhere between 8 & 10 months, we're not really exactly sure since she's a rescue and like I said, she got used to it just fine. Really, all a name is to a dog is something we say to get their attention. I'm sure your Golden will catch on pretty quickly just as long as you praise him whenever you say his new name and he looks at you in response. Where are you getting him from? Chances are, if he is in a shelter or Humane Society they gave him the name and he probablt barely knows it. If you're getting him from a breeder it'll take him a little onger to get used to a new name but he'll get used to it

Dont worry abou thte name problem, pick anything you'd like.
When Igot my great dane, her name was Roxy, we changed it to Baby, and she only listens to that name now.

We kept Angel's name because we didn't know if she would stay with us furever. When it came to adopting her we already thought of her as Angel. She now, after five weeks, comes to a long list of names that aren't worth listing but I can assure you that most of them would sound nothing like Angel! She is four years old.

Same here, When I got my pup from the shelter his name was 'Spike' ugh....i had to change it right away. His name is Camen now.

Well all we got "STEWIE" and he is awesome, I decided to keep the name, hey what's in a name any ways. He is so wonderful needs lots of love and attention.

He loves being out here in the woods running and playing, we are thinking about an electronic fence any idea? Are the good or bad I don't want to tie him up, and I don't want him running into the woods. We have a swamp near us, and the dogs love going there.


Any thoughts!
