Cute Names For An Energetic Pup

Despite the size of these teeny tiny pups, they truly present themselves as if they are one of the “big dogs” in the pack. These pooches have a gentleness about them, while also maintaining their confidence and lively character, making them a great companion dog. They can be used as a watchdog because they have excellent ears that alert them to sound, but they will need to be trained to not bark at every little sound. They also have a tendency for being protective of their human companions, but can easily be trained to be friendly with those around them.
