So, your thinking about getting a new dog. Or maybe you just got one and now you are wondering, "what should I name him or her?". Coming up with the perfect name for your new four-legged friend can be stressful and it can take some time.

A lot can go into naming a pet. Does the name "match" well with the look/size of the dog? Is the name clear enough for a dog to learn easily? And for some people, they want to pick a name that is unique and not used by a lot of people. Then of course there are some names that have been popular forever and sometimes you end up going with one of the classics.

Wag also gave some advice when it comes to naming your next dog. Keep the name of the dog to one or two syllables. The reason? It's easier for the dog to remember. Makes sense.
