Hunting Dog Names

There are a variety of different types of hunting dogs and choosing a name will have a great deal to do with the type of hunting the owner does, and what type of breed dog it is. Some of the most common hunting dogs include the following: Basset Hound, Beagle, Brittany Spaniel, Cocker Spaniel, Coonhound, English Foxhound, Longhaired/Shorthaired Pointer, Irish Setter, Labrador Retriever, Vizsla, Weimaraner, and the Sheepdog.

Although some of these are very different in physical characteristics, all of them have similarities that place them in the Sporting breed group. Still, though, some are specialists in the water, while others have an exceptional sense of smell, and still others are extremely fast runners. Finding suitable names for hunting dog will mean considering these physical and personality characteristics that make them such unique sporting dogs.
