Ideas for Naming Your New Puppy

"After reading this book, I'm thinking of changing my name." ~Mutt "Bow Wow: The Somewhat Comprehensive Book of Dog Names" is a fun romp through a variety of ideas that include: Dawg Names, Human Names, Pure Breds, Victorian, Characters from Dickens, Leaders, History's Bravest, Sweets, Good Dogs, Mutts, Bad Dogs, Worldly Dogs, Out of This World, Colors, Double Dog, Feed Me, Pet Me, Flower Power, Rhymin Simon, Pairs, Action Figures and of course, Strange (but true). Examples include: Timpango, Scottie, Trixie, Scout, Buddy, Cuddles, Cutie Pie, Moonglow and Fifi. A fun introduction to pet names and you may find one you enjoy or you can give your dog a variety of names depending on mood or occasion. Right now I'm inclined to name the dog below us: "Barky Warky." I think maybe the owners should buy a second puppy so he is not so lonely while they are at work. "Such informative reading, and a nice chewy cover, too!" ~Scamp ~The Rebecca Review

Clever names, clever artwork!

What a great little book, filled with quirky dog names organized by categories like "Out of This World" (Sputnik, Ozone) and "Feed Me" (Ruta Begger, Pork Chop). It has a retro feel, with hand-drawn fonts and clever illustrations of dogs capering around the borders. This would make a great gift for dog lovers, suitable for reading aloud and sharing some of the funnier names.

Bow Wow: The Somewhat Comprehensive Book of Dog Names

Very clever, witty and fun. Nicely designed and illustrated. Great gift for new and old dog owners.
