After you have purchased a puppy and brought it into your home, an important question arises: what to name a boy’s dog or a girl’s dog? But is it really important to immediately choose a name for a new friend who will become a full-fledged member of your family?

After all, there will be confusion, and your animals will respond every time you contact, for example, a child or a cat.
