Re: Which name for a golden retriever?
in reply to a message by HaySkyNat
Ohhhh both great names. I'm leaning towards Willow. I really love that name. But I would choose based on personality. Willow is a very mellow carefree kind ofname whereas Xanthe would be spunky and sassy.
Also just a thought, I did read an article once that said you shouldn't name your dogs ending in the "oh" sounds because dogs only hear vowels not consonants so if you use the word "no" a lot as a reprimand they may get confused between that and their name. I'm not sure how valid that theory is though, probably not a huge deal.
