Help me come up with a name for this pup! (kinda ski related)..

So we've found this cute pup and we need a name for him.

http://www.biglines.com/photosv2/200...ines_62497.jpg

As you can see, he has lots of Yellow Lab in him....but obviously has something else mixed in...not quite sure what. None the less, he needs a name. Mrs. JC and I are both snow advocates, so we would like to keep it snow related.

I'd like to hear some suggestions....might have to make this the unnofficial TGR puppy mascott.

Names that are out...as in no effin way:
Atomic, Salomon, Lange...etc. etc. The gear names just aren't sticking. Also have ruled out most resort names like Jackson and Alta. Thought about Ullr or Splat, maybe even A.J. Kitt but just couldn't do it.

On the block:
Powder (Pow for short)

And, uhhhh......that's about the extent of my creativity. Gotta give this poor thing a name and I don't want it to be super cheesey.

I say camo on account of his camoflage tounge

Digger. First thing that popped into my mind.

BroDog.

Seriously though, that is a good looking pup.

Killy

He's cute:)

Bode... he's kinda scruffy, and has that vacant look in his eyes.

Drift

6789

Maybe it's just me, but he seems to have some chow in him. That speckled tongue, the shape of his skull, ear fur, and his half-mane all suggest chow to me. For some reason, I've been seeing more mixes in the past year or so that appear to be part chow.

Bode actually seems like a good match, but you might be concerned that it suggests hero-worship.

You could call him Tanner, but then he'd be likely to die while hitting a gap.

If he were a she, you could try Firn or Neve. Or Hoar. Or Hestra.

What about the name of a favorite couloir or mountain?

Out (in a no offense kinda way):
BroDog
Killy
Probably Digger

Still Considering:
Bode
Cammo
Powder
Drift (my personal fav so far)...

Yeah, I've read that about chows and the tongue. I guess that might keep the size down a bit, but who knows.

Thanks for all the suggestions...keep em' rollin.

Nice looking dawg. Possibly has some Flat Coat in him ... maybe not. How about FACE SHOT? or ... the obvious .. 'cause he's mostly white ... POWDER.

rufus...

Mrs. JC is watching and says she likes;

Powder and Drift so far....

Rufus.............LOVE IT, but uhhhhh.

What about naming him after our beloved Plakespear or CoreShot?

Doug or Bart

Kevin Andrews

Chow-Labradoodle pup should be named "xuebai" which means "snow white".

devileye spotty tounge
spot for short
Gafney, gaf for short
after the superstar family, and gaf is kinda irish slang for your home

Pernunciation request: Xuebai--- zu-buy?

You makin stuff up again Trayc?

Freshie
BC
Cham
Jax (Jackson Hole)

ptex?

sastrugie? (sp)


nice looking dog for sure

Looks like a chow got to a labradoodle for sure, not making that up.
I believe it is Zu Bai, but you'd have to ask a native speaker of mandarin chinese. Xue - snow Bai - white.

But he is a dog, so change it to Huang Xue ... yellow snow

Chomper maybe. Or Kush. How about Blurred?

I still thing Kevin Andrews is the best name for a dog.

Name him Avalanche. That way when you're out in the BC and he gets lost you can yell "Avalanche" at the top of your lungs until you find him.

When I was a kid we had a dog named Dog. He was a stray that we got from my sister. Almost everyone that first met Dog would use his name unintensionally, "Hi dog, hi doggie, what's his name?" or "Get outta here you stupid dog." It was perfect, and if I ever get another dog I'm going to name him Dog.

I considered Camber when I was looking for a dog name.

You've got to be kidding. It's so obvious!

Leeeeerrrooooy Jeeennnnnkkkkkinnnnssss!!!

Seriously: By-Tor (and the Snow Dog) - Rush

Seymour RippinSki.

Off Piste. Opie for short.

I have no idea why, but "Hank" is what popped into my head.

Graupel or Sluff (sluffy)?

Maurice, MAURICE BALLSTEIN!!!!!! :D

All my fisrt suggestions are already taken. Maybe there is some french poodle in him...Couloir or Arete?

Camo tongue = CHOW MIX.

How about DC? (In memory of Doug)

That's a good one.......

We keep coming back to Powder (Pow) and Drift, though.

I like Bode, but I also think he looks like a Smitty. (not ski related)

HUCK

54321

The 4 tops for me.

Powder
Drift
Huck(good one MTT)
Bode

He looks like a "Buddy" to me, though thats NSR.

In theory, the best dog names (because dogs respond to them the best) have two sylables with different tones or vowel sounds in them. I've noticed this to be true... but them again, my dog is named bear (sounds like there, where, hair, care, etc) and she listens better than most hounds.

Start thinking about mountain names,too. there are lots of cool unique names in them thar hills.

I like this list. Huck might be my new favorite!

Coombs
Pow

Avy (he is white)
Splat or Woodsy
