Mudd is the kennel name of Daddy.

 

What is the difference between a kennel name and the birth name a dog is given? And, why 2 different names?

Girl 1 and Girl 3 are strong, and nurse fine on their own. Girl 2 was basically DOA, but Bill and I got her breathing ... kind of. She was having a erally hard time, and we thought maybe her lungs weren't fully developed. She is still not out of the woods, but she was born at 4:37 and has even nursed (with me holding her)

 

GAH .... just had another one.

 

Sending prayers for puppy #2. :hope:hope

Hope all is going well, sending prayers from across the pond for pup number 2. Fingers crossed they are ALL safe and sound and that mum isn't too jaded after her big day.

All racers are given a registered racing name with the NGA and then they are given a name to be called in the kennel. For instance my Emmy's racing name is Live It Up Drive but they called her Emmy in the kennel. In this case the daddy's racing name is Take It Over but they call him Mudd in the kennel.

our pups get named as soon as we figure out personality or something that fits them. Those are the names we call them their whole life (including their "kennel" name). The NGA registered name doesn't have to have anything to do with that name, but sometimes it does.

 

Now, if we get a new dog from a breeder who doesn't tell us their "kennel" name, we usually make something up based on their registered name -- i.e, CTW Well Done didn't come in with a name, so I started calling him Steak. I couldn't come up with a kennel name for CTW Natural Cure, but my husband did - Natalie or Natty. :-)

They also had a dog come in saddled with the unfortunate name of CTW Cows Are Out. Fortunately he got a pretty good kennel name (if I do say so myself :P ); Scout.

Thanks to everyone for the info on the kennel name vs. NGA name! I have been watching my Susie's little girl race, after racing they will be breeding her but the owner has promised that she will be mine after breeding. :) Her kennel name is different than her racing name and when I saw the post about Mudd's kennel name it got me to wondering why.
