There's a lightness and optimism about the name Bless that I think makes it perfect for affectionate but well-behaved dogs.
I mean, you basically have a living, breathing, tail-wagging blessing in your life, every day, so why not name your pup Bless?
They say you should always "count your blessings", and it's just impossible to take life for granted when you have a dog named Bless.
It's also a nod to the etymology of the word, derived from the Old English 'blÄdsian', meaning to consecrate with blood. I see that as a fitting tribute to your dog's wolfish ancestors.
If you're not fully convinced, hopefully this gives you the final push to name your pup Bless. To me, it's both meaningful and a little quirky.
