The second option which can be used is to call the dog a name which is based around its overall look. The name can be based upon the size of the dog, the breed and the dominance. Both options are widely used and it is simply up to the owner which name they choose.
When it comes to a large breed of dog, a popular name is Tyson. This name adds a sense of dominance to the dog. Medium size male dogs have a popular choice of name which is Rex, whilst a popular small male dog breed name is Max and when it comes to a tiny breed of male dog, the name can range from the large names to the small names.
