You have two dogs. How can you give one away, yet keep both?

“You can keep one dog and give the other away.”

This interpretation suggests that you can only keep one dog, which contradicts the riddle's requirement to keep both dogs.

“You can give one dog to someone else but still have both dogs in your yard.”

This fails to address the riddle's clever wordplay about naming, as it assumes physical possession rather than the concept of renaming.

“You can clone one of the dogs, so you still have both after giving one away.”

This answer misunderstands the riddle's focus on language and naming rather than literal actions like cloning.
