In order to choose a name for your new puppy based on food, you do not have to be a foodie. About food, there is something primitive. We all eat to survive and many people go beyond the physical needs of the food they eat and bind feelings to it.
Complete bodied, earthy, woody, or Sublime, Heavenly, or Tantalizing, even the words we use to describe foods have an emotional connotation.
It might sound peculiar, uncommon, weird, or just plain wrong, but there’s a definite propensity for our dogs to be named after food.
Many small dog owners want some unusual ones that will stand out and establish their dog’s character.
You’re one of them? Our list is here. Please let us know if you have more ideas and we’ll add them.
