I can think of “Bantay” and “Tagpi.”
Most Filipinos now prefer “Americanized” names for their dogs. My own dogs’ names are Pepper & Whiskey. I also had a dog once named Shadow and our female Dalmatian was called Dalma. Our current dog is named Kenshin, after Samurai X.
Maybe you can call your female dog Diyosa. Or Dyesebel. Or other famous Filipino characters. My cousin once named her cat Darna.

If your dog is a bit fat you can call it:
1. Malusog (healthy)
2. Batchoy
3. Taba
all of which indicated fatness
Some doggy pinoy names you can use are :
Bantay (guard), Bagsik (Fierce), Butsokoy, Pangit (ugly - for ugly but cute looking dogs), Bibo (pinoy brand name of hotdog also means energetic)…
Hope this helps..

To help you remember that “Philippine feeling” at a foreign land, I suggest these names for your dog. Names like, pangga or palangga (dear), mahal (loved), sikat (famous), bituin (star), sobra (excess), tambok or tabatsoy (fat), igat or kiat (flirty-female), kidlat (lightning), kulog (thunder), ulan (rain), bagyo (thunderstorm), hangin (wind), kutitap (twinkle), etc..

If you want your dog has a very unique name…go ahead and name it as follows;
if your dog is black, name it “whitie”
and if your dog is white, name it “blackie”
LOL!!!
