The Jungle Book Dog Name Considerations

On the surface, the Jungle Book stories are about Mowgli, a young boy who is abandoned by his parents in the jungles of India. Instead of dying, he is adopted by the animals and becomes one of their own. He has many adventures and eventually learns to balance life in the human village with his existence in the jungle. Thanks to his unusual upbringing, he belongs on both sides which earns him a freedom that no-one else has. When you look into the deeper meaning of the stories, you begin to notice that there are many themes that Rudyard intertwined in the narrative. 

Kipling makes comments on society, illustrates what it is like to be abandoned and then fostered by a loving family. His stories show the freedom of living within the law and dealing with antagonistic forces. In his stories, the heroes always win against the bad guys and there is a happy ending. He even introduces human archetypes in his animal hierarchy and stresses the importance of honoring authority due to the recklessness of human nature. Obviously, the Jungle Book is a little deeper than we originally thought. That, and there are many exotic names to give to your pets.
