Introduction
Java is an Indonesian island with the Indian Ocean as its southern border and the Java Sea as its border to the north. The island of Java is home to more than 56 percent of Indonesia’s population and is the most populated island in the world. Jakarta, which is Indonesia’s capital, is located on the northwestern coast of the island. The island is also the location of four of Indonesia’s eight UNESCO world heritage sites, to include Ujung Kulon National Park, Borobudur Temple, Prambanan Temple and Sangiran Early Man Site. The island has a lot to offer, including unique name possibilities, one of which may be perfect for your pup.
Javanese Dog Names In Pop Culture
The Solo River is the longest river in Java which then flows into the Java Sea. Solo is also the name of a 5-year-old Border Collie mix who received attention when staying at the ASPCA Adoption Center in Manhattan. As noted by Director of Animal Welfare Ruth Allen, when things are going well, she does not hear about it. But when there are issues, she gets pulled in. She was alerted about Solo when he had not eaten in several days. According to Ruth, he was stressed out and would not make eye contact. Ruth began spending time with him. She would hand-feed him chicken and rice and after a couple of days, he began to mellow a bit. According to Ruth, she said to herself, “there is an awesome dog in there somewhere. Spending time with Solo led Ruth to gain a strong desire to take him home; so she adopted the pup. Ruth explained that she had been thinking about adopting a dog for a long time, however, had not done so.
The day that she adopted Solo, Ruth had to drive him home through a torrential downpour and she learned that Solo had a lot of anxiety regarding thunderstorms. He wound up cowering on the floor of the front passenger seat. Ruth became determined to help Solo develop confidence. It turns out that Solo helps Ruth do the same. Ruth explains that she is a city girl now living in the country. While she had never visited lakes and the woods, upon bringing Solo home, they began visiting them together. According to Ruth, Solo helps push her beyond her comfort zone. Ruth stated, “I see now how dogs open doors,” Ruth adds. Solo provides me with mental support. I’ve lost weight. I love spending time with him. I need him as much as he needs me.
As Ruth got to know her new canine pal, she learned that he had other anxieties outside of thunderstorms. The sound of the furnace, for example. Ruth turned to a variety of resources to learn how to help Solo with his anxiety. She and Solo have worked with Rachel Maso, a Behavior Specialist at the ASPCA’s Adoption Center on relaxation technique and “enrichment options” to help Solo manage his stress when alone. According to Ruth, while progress is slow, each time Solo makes a progress is celebrated.
Javanese Dog Name Considerations
Having a hard time deciding just what to name your canine companion? You are not alone - this is a challenge for many when bringing home their new best pal. Fortunately, we can help you get started as you seek the perfect name for your pet!
Particularly if you are looking for a name that has meaning to you, it can be helpful to think of a place that you care about. It can be a place where you have lived, visited or hope to one day travel to. It should be the kind of place that when you are reminded of it, you experience positive feelings. Take Java, in Indonesia, for example. The island has a lot going for it, to include volcanos and beautiful beaches. Those who enjoy trips to the beach have plenty of options to choose from; you can choose to name your pup Soge, for Soge Beach or Bama, for Bama Beach, both of which are in East Java. Or consider the name Bromo, for Mount Bromo on the island.
With a name from Java, each time you call for your pup, you will be reminded of all that the unique island has to offer.
