QUICK: Name A Puppy (For Charity)
Some time ago I asked for help in naming my new, handsome, giant, amazing puppy dog… and boy did you come to the rescue. You posted 116 comments here on Zoomdoggle. There were even more on Twitter. And NameThis, a fantastic service for anyone looking for help naming anything, nearly broke the bank for over 360 more sugjestions. When it was all said and done though, I couldn’t name him Milo (too Disney), or Banksy (too hip), or Wally (too goofy). Nope, only one name felt right: Cashew! It’s good, right? He’s Cashew colored, he acts like a nut, plus the nick-name “Cash” sounds sharp and manly. The dog got a name, so far so good, right? But there’s more…
The whole thing made me realize how fun it is to name puppies. If only there was a way to harness all of that fun-ness for good. Introducing the Zoomdoggle Puppy Namer.
Here’s how it works: Every Monday we put a new pup up for naming at PuppyNamer.com. For every name suggested, our weekly sponsor will donate 50 cents to a pet related charity. For every vote that name gets, another 25 cents is given to the cause. But that’s not all. If your name win the most votes by the end of the week, you’ve won yourself a cool $10. How fun is that? Click through, Pup 1 is pretty rad and deserves a great name and, did I forget to mention, he’s also without a great a home? If anyone wants to take him, let me know and we’ll put you in touch with the adoption agency. Everyone’s a winner!

I sure hope these awesome puppies get named by spellcheckers. “Sugjestions”?!? Really, ZD.
Really.
