Introduction

The Swedish Vallhund is a newer breed to the American Kennel Club (AKC) but has been well established in their native Sweden for many years as a reliable herding dog. Many people think the Swedish Vallhund closely resembles their cousin the Welsh Corgi but they are indeed a separate breed with their own personality. Deciding to add a Swedish Vallhund to your family should be done only after researching the breed and understanding their needs as they grow. Deciding on the right name for your new Swedish Vallhund should be an exciting experience for the entire family. Spend some time getting to know your new baby before you decide on a final name.

Swedish Vallhund Dog Name Considerations

Most people who have brought a Swedish Vallhund into their family want to find just the right name for their new companion. Scandinavian names seem to top the list, since they hail from Sweden. Swedish can be a somewhat harsh language and pronouncing names that have Swedish roots can be somewhat difficult. However, there are plenty of short, easy to say names that would be a perfect fit for your new Swedish Vallhund puppy. Research possible names and ask the opinions of each family member so they feel like they contributed to naming your new pup. Some Swedish or Scandinavian names are actually common here in the United States such as Elsa, Garth, Carina or Bo. So if you know of another dog in your neighborhood with one of these more common names, you might want to avoid it and choose a different name to keep confusion to a minimum when you are out walking your dog. It is also possible to honor the Swedish Vallhund’s native land without committing to calling them a harder to pronounce name. For instance, you can easily name your puppy Anders but can call him Andy for short; or call her Annie which can be short for Anneliese.
