IT has been claimed repeatedly online that France sets a letter for dog names every year; for example, that all dogs in 2016 must have a name that begins with the letter "M". Is there any truth to this, or are those who are claiming it barking mad? Verdict:TRUEThis is actually true, however it only applies to pedigree purebreed dogs that are registered with the Société Centrale Canine in its Livre des Origines Français (LOF). As explained by the online news portal The Connexion, the Société Centrale Canine keeps track of the genealogy of pedigree dogs and the rule was brought in to simplify listings. Rowland then cited advice from dresser-son-chien.com for those who have a dog who has already been listed with a name that they do not like.
