Nicknames that should not be used

Dog handlers and breeders do not recommend calling a pug puppy Russian common names or nicknames of the country in which the owner and his pet live, especially this rule applies to the names of family members, close friends, and neighbors.

Strange, offensive or demonic nicknames, for example, “Hell”, “War”, “Infection”, “Demon”, “Devil”, “Devil”, “Demon”, “Witch” and the like will have an extremely unfavorable effect on the dog.

It is worth using growling sounds moderately in choosing a name, such as “Rex”, “Rose”, “Zord”, “Zeref” are perfect for larger individuals, watchdogs, hunting dogs, which tend to show aggression intentionally, for their intended purpose.

Interesting fact about pugs. The exact history of the origin of the breed is unknown. However, it is believed that it occurred around 400 AD. Pugs lived primarily in Tibetan monasteries, where monks kept them as pets.

Advice from breeders


Choosing a nickname is a responsible matter.
Especially if you remember who it was for - a small, unintelligent pug who, at the dawn of the breeding, slept with emperors on silk pillows.

If the above tips and recommendations did not yield results in finding a suitable nickname, then it’s time to turn to the experts for help. So, pug breeders usually advise:

  1. No matter how funny a pug may seem, you should not give him a funny nickname. At first, you can have fun with your dog, but soon you will get bored and start to irritate. The people around will chuckle, and the owner will blush.
  2. Consider the character of the dog itself. It’s better to wait a little with the nickname, but then get to know the pug better. There are many nuances in their character, so you should rely on this when choosing a nickname.
  3. Choose a nickname for your pug that consists of no more than 2 syllables. It should be bright and ringing in order to please both the owner and the puppy with its pleasant sound.
  4. By choosing a nickname, the owner can be associated with the disposition, color and preferences of his pug . It can be a simple word that reveals the pet’s temperament.
  5. When choosing a nickname, focus on the country where pugs originated. Dog experts still disagree on whether it should be Japan or China, but they recommend choosing a simple name of Asian origin. It will sound simple, but tasteful.

"Delicious" nicknames

“Delicious” nicknames are suitable for gourmet owners. To make it easier to choose a gastronomic nickname, it’s worth answering a few questions for yourself. What dish name sounds appealing? What does the pet look like? What taste would describe his character?

Can a nickname affect a pug's character?

Research and observations show that the formation of a puppy’s character depends on several factors:

  • education;
  • breeds;
  • heredity;
  • dates of birth;
  • nicknames.

A pug's name is a code that encodes his behavior, character, and dominant reflexes. Each of the pets is individual, but all representatives of the breed have common characteristic features: pugs are family and domestic, they are very attached to the owner, they behave directly and friendly. At the same time, they are proud, proud, love to show off and demand respect for their person. Despite their cheerfulness, they prefer to spend more time at home, sitting comfortably on a lounger. For this reason, the nicknames Lightning or Hurricane do not quite suit them. Small breed dogs have other characteristics that may be the basis for choosing a nickname.

Choosing the right one

For some, a pug is a breed that is no more beautiful in the whole world, but for others it is just a charming baby. In any case, it causes an attack of tenderness in its owner. It is impossible to make a mistake if, when choosing a nickname for a puppy, you choose one that will be pleasant to the ear. It should be short, but meaningful, and most importantly, easy to pronounce.



Before naming your pug, it is important to accept in your head the fact that this nickname will always be with him.
The owner will hear it day after day not only from his own lips, but also from the lips of family and friends.

In addition, strangers will also hear it, for example, while walking in the park. The pug, of course, is indifferent to the meaning of its nickname in the understanding of a person. However, the dog may like her or, conversely, irritate him.

This is surprising, but a puppy can come up with a nickname on his own. To do this, his newly-made owner must begin to pronounce the letters out loud. This should be done in a calm and slow voice. You can pronounce the same letter several times, and then the next one.

Until the alphabet runs out. It is better to write down those letters to which the dog will respond (turning the head or looking towards the owner). Thus, the letters that are most “interesting” to the pug should be used in his nickname.

Names associated with size

As you know, pugs are characterized by their small size, therefore, many owners give nicknames based on this fact. Some give funny names that are usually associated with large creatures, animals and even ancient Gods. It turns out to be an interesting pun - a little pug and a formidable nickname.

Selection rules

Nickname requirements:

  • Simple and short - two or three syllables, no more. It has been proven that dogs perceive only the first two syllables, so they will only remember the beginning of their name. In addition, as long as you say the entire name, your pet will have time to do everything he has planned before you pull him back.
  • The presence of clear, voiced letters. Experienced breeders recommend using growling and hissing sounds in nicknames - animals hear them well, so you can call the dog in a noisy place or from afar.
  • There should be no consonance with commands. You should not give your dog nicknames that sound identical to the commands “fu”, “lie down”, “sit”, “near”. The animal will be confused, and as a result, the educational process and training will not lead to the desired result.
  • Relevance. Being too creative in coming up with a nickname can have the opposite effect. Don’t forget that your pet also belongs to society, and when you pronounce a tricky or funny nickname, be prepared for a certain reaction from others. It's unlikely that your dog will like it when everyone around him laughs when they hear his name.
  • Immutability. The nickname is given to the dog once and for all; it is highly undesirable to change it or transform it. Dogs are smart and quick-witted creatures with well-developed memory and thinking. You shouldn’t disorient her by changing your decision every time.

Choosing a nickname for your pet is a fun and exciting process in which all family members take part. However, the main condition here is not to rush. Take a closer look at the new tenant, observe his behavior, habits, and reactions for a couple of days. Consider all possible options, evaluate how the pug reacts to the names you like. Follow the basic parameters for the correct name.
