Divinity Inspired Dog Names

In terms of sheer power and ability, Sarama is essentially on par with the chief Hindu deities; she can run at incredible speeds, is said to be capable of altering her shape and size, has tremendous strength, and is extraordinarily intelligent. Sarama's reproductive system is also supercharged and divine in nature and function; the old girl is believed to have birthed every single dog that inhabits South East Asia! Moreover, Sarama is considered to be the Mother of All Wild Animals as a whole, suggesting that she's capable of birthing creatures that are outside of her species. All of these abilities have served Sarama well, helping her pull off the insane feats that she has in her most famous stories.

When discussing the Hindu goddess of Dogs, two stories must always be taken into account; the Ramayana and the tale of the Stolen Cows. While Sarama isn't as involved in the first story, the latter displayed her faithfulness to the gods and mankind. One day, a group of roving demons happened upon a herd of cows that were being tended to by a tribe of early humans. These demons - called Asuras in Hindu lore - stole the cows not out of necessity but because they knew that the Hindu early humans - the Angirasas - would die without them. That's certainly how things would have played out had Sarama not intervened. 

Using her divine canine senses, Sarama was able to save the day; she was able to sniff out the cows by following the faintest of trails and scared away the Asuras with a growl. Sarama was rewarded for her efforts, earning the love and admiration of the Angirasas and earning the favor of a particularly prominent and powerful deity - Indra the Hindu god of Heaven and the Skies.
