As you already know, I have two fur babies. I love them sooooo much! They are a part of our family just as much as my human babies are. I still remember the day I first met both of them, holding them for the first time, and of course picking a name that fit them perfectly.
IAMS has releases a new video called “A Boy and His Dog Duck”. It shows how this sweet dog named Duck, got his name in an adorable way. Check it out…
How sweet is that? I have to admit I got teary eyed the first time I saw it. How adorable! Besides the cute way Duck got his name, I loved seeing the special relationship between the boy and his dog. They are our best friends and family members for life!
In light of this IAMS Duck video I thought I would share the stories of how my dogs got their names.
My boxer is 8 years old and I have had her since she was a new puppy. We purchased her from one of our neighbors that lived just down the street. I wanted to name her Lily, I thought that was such a cute name. My husband wasn’t a fan but sinceI had come up with a flower name he went with the theme and said “How about Daisy?”. I loved it. It was perfect for her. Daisy. And since I always give my my dogs a middle name I finished it off with Daisy May. Her name was complete (and super cute). She was super hyper and remained a puppy for well over 3 years. But she is the sweetest dog. She loves my kids and never gets mad at them, she is so patience and kind to them (even when they were babies and toddlers). She is protective and at the same time afraid of a lot, LOL. Our home wouldn’t be the same without her.
I met my tiny toy poodle back when she was smaller than a soda can. I picked her out while she was still 
being nursed by her mom. I had to wait about 4 weeks before I was able to bring her home. That was hard waiting. I knew right away I wanted to name her Zoey. She has a quirky little personality and the name fits her very well. Of course she had to have a middle name, hers is Ana. Zoey Ana. From the moment she came to our home she has been my little cuddle bug. She likes to nestle right under my chin and cuddle with me. It is so sweet. She is my baby, and since she is so tiny (only 4 lbs.) she seems like she is still a puppy. She’s not though, she is 5 years old. My daughter cannot get enough of holding and petting Zoey.
Both of my kids love having our two dogs in our home and they really are members of our family.
How did you come up with the names for your dogs? I would love to hear! Share in the comments section.
