Pick a name that matches the personality of the dog, or means something to you. Our lab is called Samson..he's really strong, when we first set eyes on him at the pound he won our hearts! He pulled on the leash so hard, he was so excited to go home! He's not always so smart, and took a while to grow into those big paws thus a little clumsy, we almost called him Pluto! Our Pyr mix is Montana...after the Great Pyreneese Mountains, montana being mountain in Spanish and my husband is from MT!
