Introduction

No one likes to think that their dog is a tiny bit deceitful, but the simple truth is that all canines are cunning. Many plan and execute 'naughty actions.' A prime example is stealing food. The dog will wait until your back is turned or you are in the other room to grab a tasty morsel. Some pooches also know that they aren't supposed to climb on the couch, but the minute they hear your car leave the driveway they are laying on the sofa. Such actions are cunning so why not pick a moniker that showcases your pooch's ability?

Dog Name Meaning Cunning Considerations

Throughout history, canines have depended on their wits for survival. They have been called scavengers by many, but their ability to thrive despite severe circumstances is undeniable. It is the intelligence and cunning skills of the dog that enable the animal to flourish in less than ideal situations. Ultimately, any dog owner has to develop a healthy respect for their four-legged buddy's perseverance. 

A dog's intelligence is admirable. Most pooches quickly figure out complicated tasks. They also communicate verbally and through actions with their human caretakers. Dogs can rapidly recognize a person even if years have elapsed since their initial meeting. Many researchers consider these abilities to be the signs of true animal intellect. 

Another often overlooked dog trait is the ability to be sneaky and hide their actions, so they do not get into trouble if they do something wrong. This characteristic is a form of sheer cunning that many dog owners find endearing. 

If you want to test your dog's cunning nature, then let them watch you make a tasty peanut butter sandwich. Now turn your back or leave the room. Will your pooch behave and leave the tasty morsel untouched or will they turn into Jesse James and steal the food before your return and then look innocent despite the peanut butter encircling their mouth?
