    What about naming it after a tree in the garden of the present dog centre. Such as:

    Yew Tree Dog Centre, or Beech Tree Dog Centre etc.

    It is transferable to other centres you may want to open up and you will not have to plant a tree of that type in the garden of any new centre as it will realte to the "founding" dog centre.

    Personally, I like that suggestion and my own better than many of the others: doggy, pooch etc all sound a bit 'twee' to me. That may go down fine with a certain kind of dog owner, but be a bit offputting to others.

    However it got me wondering whether you could do anything tying up what dogs DO to trees ... probably not, and just as terrible as some of the others!!!

    'Canine Creche' has opened near me in the last couple of weeks. Must be the new craze!

    Think about what potential customers will be typing into google to find your type of business and put as many of those words in as you can. You don't need to be clever, you need to be found! Re the place name, could you widen your appeal by using the county in the name rather than the actual town?

    PS I still love The Doghouse though!
