Can't find a name for our new dog..

[offroadkid]

We rescued "Zeus" from the local SPCA on Sunday. He's a 2yo Lab mix and he is a great dog!!

The thing is, we don't like the name Zeus. In the past we had Labs named Ike, Willy, and Emmy Lou. We want something in a different language, like Japanese, Native American, or Maori, etc. My sister has two Labs, Kheone, and Kobe.

We need to pick a name fast, but just can't decide. Can anyone offer any good dog names?!!

Sorry no pic. right now, I've got it at 640x480, but it still is too big?! He's all black with small ears, a white spot on his chest, and his back toes are white.

My stubborn 2.5 yr old Malamute learned his 'new' name very quickly. It's all about association. Use it when feeding him/her and he/she will catch on quickly.

if it matters, he went from "nanook" to 'timber'.

I guess I've never tried it. Post some pics when you get them sized correctly to help us provide options.
