Introduction
Australian Shepherd Dog Names in Pop Culture
Brianna gets to claim custody of Bella and Daisy because the Australian Shepherd breed was chosen specifically for her, as she tends to suffer from relatively bad allergies. While the Australian Shepherd is not a hypoallergenic breed and tends to shed quite often, apparently the breed isn't one that aggravates Brianna's allergies; thus making Bella and Daisy a great choice of companion for the famed country singer's little girl.
Trace Adkins, although being a dog person, has always believed that if a dog didn't "reach the top of your boots", it wasn't a real dog! So when Bella and Daisy came into the picture, the intelligent pair may not have met his exact expectations (being female dogs as well) but he loves them regardless and is most likely quite pleased that Bella and Daisy can provide a lot of love and happiness to his daughter.
The names "Bella" and "Daisy" are quite perfect for Australian Shepherds as they are graceful and attractive monikers. The name Bella has quite a few different meanings in multiple different languages, such as "intelligent" in Hungarian and "beautiful" in Spanish. Both of those words are perfect descriptors for an Aussie! The name Daisy is of course a representation of the Daisy flower which is made up of white petals and a yellow center. Interestingly enough, the Daisy actually isn't just one flower, but two; disk florets and petal-like ray florets which both give the Daisy it's unique petal pattern. Just like their interesting names, there is no doubt that Bella and Daisy are beautiful creatures who bring a lot of life and energy to the world.
Whether you decide to follow after Trace Adkin's footsteps and name your dog after something that captures their inner light, or if you decide to reflect their wild side with their name, be sure to choose something that you will always remember; because the dogs that come into our lives are truly things to be treasured.
Australian Shepherd Dog Name Considerations
For instance, a male Australian Shepherd may fit names like Texas, Hank, and Angus best. All of these offer a sense of masculinity while also embracing the classic nature of the Wild West! For females, names such as Cheyenne, Jane, and Lady are great examples that capture the beauty and free nature of the women who helped settle Western America. All of the names listed here, along with many more, are a perfect starting place for finding the perfect moniker that will forever symbolize how you see your Australian Shepherd. There is no doubt that no matter which title you decide to choose for your Aussie, it should be one that represents the breed's intelligence and carefree personality.

Community Dogs with Australian Shepherd Names
I got my dogs name from this website
He was rescued on a 100 degree day, and his smile brightened the room. Therefore, Sunny!

I saw him, and I though "woh. He looks like my grandmas butt". Dont ask me how i know what ny grandmas butt looks like

Harlow is a 2 1/2 year old toy American Shepherd who was rescued from a dog breeding home. She was turned into the rescue for producing only one puppy for a couple of litters. I adopted her from the rescue facility and learned she survived nine c-sections and complications from her spaying. She is making slow progress but is finally healthy and free of infections that have lingered while at her foster home.

I did not come here to tell about my dogs naming story I came here to tell the boy who named his poor innocent dog Poopy But Hole Tea that he needs to give his dog to someone who will take care of him and give him a good name. No dog deserves a horrible name like that no matter how he looks. And to everyone else, good job on naming your dog a good name unlike the mean boy. STOP PICKING STUPID AND MEAN NAMES AND GIVING IT TO A INNOCENT DOG THAT DID NOTHING WRONG!
Stop naming dogs names like Poopy But Hole Tea, Ugly, Dumb, Stupid, Get, Out, Scram, Dammit, and other mean names.
My dog is actually female not male.
