	Naming Your DK or GSP from Covey Run Kennels Deutsch Kurzhhars (DK's)
		Each dog generally has 2 names--a registered name (usually a longer and official name, reserved for the registration papers), and a "call" name (usually a shorter name that the dog is called by on a daily basis).
		Other breeders may allow you to choose the whole name, and still others may ask you to utilize their kennel name, but will allow you to choose the rest of the dog's name.
		The drawback is that the same names get used over and over again by a lot of different breeders, and that prolific breeders may have to start over at the beginning of the alphabet a number of times.
