Can you name a new dog business better than we can? Help!

Starting something new. Monday to Friday dog day care with overnight holidays only for the daycare dogs. Dogs will be collected from home in the morning and dropped back in the evening by van. We're on a farm a few miles out of town with a couple of enclosed paddocks, acres of arable land and some woodland. We have the potential to do a small pet hotel and board sheep/horses/goats etc, but initially just the dogs.

I keep coming back to calling it Doggy Daycare & Small Pet Hotel - I have zero imagination when it comes to this sort of thing - as shown by my stunning name change.

Please help. (and yes, licensed, insured etc)

Use the name of your farm in it.
eg Brookfield Farm Dog Daycare & Pet Hotel

Use the name to sell your USP - you have large green open spaces for the dogs to frolic in and dog owners will enjoy that much more than dropping them off to an urban building. You need a name that brings fields and farms to mind.

Use the name of your farm in it.

This is good.
Classy and solid.
Will set you apart from all the dodgy dog puns.

Definitely add in your location, nothing wrong with making it a bit witty at the same time too to help it stick in the mind.

For example - I know there is a fish and chip shop called A Fish Called Rhondda in Pentre. I've never been but it is a fish and chip shop in the Rhondda and the next time I am passing through RCT I am sorely tempted to pay a visit!

I agree with using the name of the farm. Makes it easier for people to know where to find you especially if the farm is already on maps and signposted. Never underestimate how badly some people can get lost.

I volunteer at a local theatre and without fail every single year we get a phone call before a show asking where we are because people have gone to the other theatre in town.

So pleased that I asked!!! Hadn't thought about using the farm name - it is a little long and people struggle to spell and pronounce it, but we can use the initials and it will work really well, thank you all!
