What does Puppy mean?
/ˈpʌpi/

Puppy is simply the English word for a young dog, typically under a year or so old, used here as a name rather than a life stage.

It's a name that keeps a pet forever young at heart, no matter how many years go by. Puppy suits an animal with boundless, tail-wagging energy and a permanently youthful spirit.
