  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact My Lhasa Poo's name is SANDY. It's actually easy how we came up with her name, we were trying to decide and has alot of names picked out but  nothing seemed right, and our neighbor and dear friend said how about Sandy because her fur was a sand color. And that was it. You always seem to know somethings right when you hear it, and that was it. Of course i call her funny little knicknames...Sandra doodle my little fluffy poodle, LOL Sandy Poo... you get it, the list goes on.

  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact  Rascal (R.I.P. 2006) came with his name Brendy came with the name Cleopatra (her mate at her abusive birth home was Cesar... go figure) but we changed it. When she was in trouble, it was Brendylynn Sue. (I miss you & hope whoever took/found you gave you a good home!!) Whimpy (son of Brendy and Rascal)  was Joe Boxer, but due to his cowardly ways and constant whining as a puppy his name became Whimpy (pronounced Wimpy.)  Lily was originally Lola, but it didn't fit her personality. Lola sounded too feminine for the rough & tumble puppy who barreled into my legs. ;)          I never really gave up on Breakin' out of this two-star town I got the green light I got a little fight I'm gonna turn this thing around

  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact Twix - I'd been waiting for a young, active Keesie to come into Kees rescue but wasn't sure I was ready (still grieving). When told about this scamp, I was torn. I told a friend I was "betwixt and between" about him. Have I ever used that phrase before??! Doubtful! I started thinking of him as Twix because of that and when I did adopt him, the name fit! Zig Zag - His litter's theme was children's games. My mom thought of Chutes And Ladders to use in his registered name - perfect since I do agility with my dogs. I came up with Zig Zag for his call name becuase of the way the chutes and ladders look on the game board. It's also a pattern that comes up in agility so, just too perfect.

  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact My dad named Brownie because there is a lot of brown on his face for a Beagle. I named Cuddles because she just wanted to eat, sleep and cuddle for the first week we had her. Bailey who I am pet sitting was named because the girls mom loved that name. My guinea pigs full name is InkBunny because it looks like her ears and paws were dipped in ink while the rest of her is white. My hamster Oreo was named because he looks like one. My gecko Cassie was named because we wanted a name that ryhmed with Wolfie. And my stray cat Sugar was named because the name just stuck. Army wives is the best show ever!!!!!!!

  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact I'm a music fanatic (I play several instruments, am a music composition major, etc etc) and I wanted both a name that represented my love my music AND a name that was unique.  So I picked "Strauss" for my Shepherd :-)  He's named after the violinist. I plan on all of my GSDs having the names of composers, modern day music artists, music terms, or instruments.  I will not be naming a dog Jazz or Beethoven for what I think are obvious reasons xD I'm REALLY looking forward to having a Joplin (Scott, not Janis :-p)     Friends come in all sizes, shapes, colors and races. They can do it, why can't we? Marcato Shepherds Where it's about function, not flash

  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact Popper - when I got him he had just been dewormed (he did have worms) and he looked like he was going to Pop, his belly was so round! Merlin - when we met him, he looked like my brother's golden hamster he had as a kid, which was named Merlin Roofus - From bill & ted's excellent adventure, but spelled way cooler Blossom - I don't know. I wanted to call her cookie. Her name was Summer, and Summer Blossom sounded neat Murphy - the people at my SO's work called her Murphy Brown, and Murphy stuck  Suzzie It's Mayhem!

  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact zatchbell322:  Lex - His full name is Lexington steele, which is an uhmm...lets just say "film" star.   errr... I know who that is, sadly... LOL Tek- his full name is Jason Varitek Bolint, but most times we call him "stinky".. He's named for the catcher of the Boston Red Sox.  At the time of his adoption, the Sox were on the verge of winning the world series, and he's so stocky and well built and athletic it just fit him. Rosie- came with the name "chichi" from her foster family.  I re-named her Rosie because she's so pink, and also it's my favorite bar back home... Indie-  was found abandoned on Industrial Blvd, so her name is actually "Industrial" but that's too long.  Usually "Indie-Brat" is what we call her, though... We had a fish (R.I.P.) named "Carlton"  as in Carlton "Fishke"... ummm we're big Red Sox fans...

  Re: Your dog's name... Reply Contact Shadow - had his name when we got him from friends and we never saw the need to change it. But my nickname for him is Pretty Boy. Jade - we plucked her out of a friend's tree. The friend's daughter had named her Chi (don't know why. 6 year old girls have a logic unto themselves.) Anyway, Jade's eyes are green, as in jade green, hence, the name. DW will call her Little One though she is not little anymore.
