can you name a dog duck
1 A dog named âDrakeâ is usually named after male ducks which are hunted. 2  Other cool hunting dog names include âBulletâ, âAdmiralâ, âGeneralâ, or âJetâ. 3  Since hunting dogs are very sensitive to commands, never pick out a name that rhymes or has a similar-sounding name with commonly used commands. If youâre bringing home an older hunting dog which has already been registered or has already been given a nickname, giving it a new nickname can be confusing for him and you might find that he will fail to respond to its new name.
