Name my puppy

Ender4212 · 02-15-2008, 05:43 PM

I have an odd request. I have put a deposit down on a Boxer puppy. He is currently one week old and I will go see him at four weeks and take him home at seven.

He is a brindle male (that is my preference and there are two in the litter). I have named my pets after mythology in the past. I have had cats named Pandora, Athena, Andromeda, and Maia. I haven't owned a dog in years, even though I'm more of a dog person than a cat person.

Currently I'm leaning towards Ares for the name. It means god of war if what I'm reading is correct. Another I thought of was Apollo, but a god of beauty and poetry may not fit a Boxer.

So, here I am asking for your help in coming up with names for him. I don't post here much, but I am an avid reader of several forums on this site. Thanks in advance!

This is the darker of the two brindles

This is the lighter brindle

Also, in case anyone wonders what they may look like at maturity. Here is mom and dad. I'm not having the ears cropped on this puppy.

Thread is worthless without pics.

Fair enough. Let me figure out how to add some photos of the two brindle males.

I really hate those dogs. You should name it LaMotta...or maybe Braddock. You know, because it's a Boxer! Haha!

I have never owned a Boxer, but I know a friend who has one and she's a nice enough dog. I have heard nothing but good things. I have a 12 year old son. We live alone together, so this is basically to be our third family member, and I hear these dogs are very good companions.

Braddock is actually a kick ass name for a boxer. Or you could go all out and name him after the infamous IVAN DRAGO!

Blumpster · 02-15-2008, 06:18 PM

Never mind that, I changed my mind. Name it Uwe Boll. HE'S A BOXER TOO!

Ender4212 · 02-15-2008, 06:21 PM

Isn't he that asshat that makes video game movies that all suck? I have never seen one of his films and don't plan on it. I have seen most of you bitching about him though.

Some interesting ideas so far, as well as some dipshit posts, but I'll take both types. I am interested in knowing why some may or may not like Boxers as a pet.

Tolanin · 02-15-2008, 06:22 PM

boxers are great dogs but very active so make sure you can take it out alot or have places for it to run.

Ender4212 · 02-15-2008, 06:23 PM

Yeah, we plan on daily long walks. I'd also like to let him run some, assuming we get him very well trained. The last thing I want is an energetic puppy (who looks like a big, mean dog) scaring the shit out of someone and he won't come when I call him.
