A mother dog is commonly referred to as a "dam." This term specifically denotes a female dog that has given birth to puppies. In breeding and veterinary contexts, the term is used to distinguish her from the sire, which is the male parent.

What is a mother cat called?

bitch I would probably name a mother dog Jules or Sandy or maybe the color of her coat. Whatever good name a mother dog would like to have. Lucy might work, but that is kind of too human and it doesn't sound adult, but if you like it.... There's a lot of names to call a mom dog, but obviously it doesn't have to have its named changed if it becomes a mother. It keeps the same name from the time the owner names it. So choose her name wisely to a name you will want to keep.
