I got my first choice

which is kind of strange, as I got tooled later on, one is not allowed to use the breeds name by the Swedish kennel club nor a country name or words like "on" "of" "in"…

And as me kennel name is Wolfdog of Sweden I kind of had 0 point right in my application

But I guess that they did like it anyway or had a very happy day. Or maybe they just felt sorry for me, because I could not read

I wanted to name my kennel this because, I wonted it to show on the WD planned litter that I was located in Sweden and for the ones in Sweden to know that I was breeding Wolfdogs

I love hearing these stories! It seems really common for people to pick names based on where they're located & what features are around. Don't think I have anything quite so inspiring living in a boring suburb of Chicago!

Sotis = Dog Star Sirius

(this is ancient Egyptian word)
This name is short and without diacritic - I mean, that it´s important too

(this name is not a problem to correctly pronounce or write)

Hello,

I call my female Caya very often "little witch" - because she behaves like it

Malá Bosorka is the slovak translation. I wanted to get a connection to Slovakia as country of origin.
