Honestly, since it's not a show breeder, you don't really 'need' to ask permission, or even add their DHR to the registered. I like Mi Princess Sophie! It's cute

Well the breeder already put the DHR on the registration paper, so I think she wanted that to be part of the name, lol. I like it too, it perfectly describes Sophie, she's my princess anyone else have a good name?

I really like Mi Princess Sophie too!

Did Sophie's breeder have another name she called her before you brought her home? I incorporated that name into Ivy's registered name. Ivy's breeder called her "Faith". We wanted to name her "Ivy" as a nod to our first Maltese who had passed away at age 17, Holly ("The Holly and the Ivy"). So my new puppy's AKC registered name became "Wild Haven's Faith in Ivy" because we had a lot of "faith" that she was going to be the perfect puppy for us - which she has turned out to be! Wild Haven is the name of our farm.

If I ever get around to registering her, she will be Sea Outlaws Spookie Samhain. Kennel name, Samhain is the Celtic word for Halloween which is her birthday.

Any holidays around her bday you could incorporate?

Sophie has always been Sophie, when I was talking to our breeder before Sophie was even conceived, I already knew what I wanted to name her so I always referred to her as Sophie, so that's what she's always been called

I love that name!

As Stacy said, since her breeder doesn't show you don't have to ask permission to use DHR, especially since you are only using initials.

Wrong! Whether it's a show breeder or not....it's unethical to use someone else's name without permission.

Also.....on the AKC papers, I believe this specifically refers to an AKC registered kennel name. There is a difference.

Irregardless, whether a kennel name is registered or not, I would never use another breeder's kennel name without asking their permission. Just not right.

Ari name is Aristotle of Lake Lucein... Lucein was his sire. I did not get to name him but I have always registered my dogs to include the sire or dam name.

Well, regardless I asked the breeders permission, she's absolutely thrilled about Sophie's registered name, so it will be official when I send in the paper, her name is "DHR Mi Princess Sophie"
