…to ask what’s the best dog name you’ve ever heard?

[Whadda]

Funny/cute/witty/daft… let’s hear ‘em.

Rodney. Such a good doggy name and suits him

Went passed a lab called Geoffrey the other day - I rather liked it!

We used to have a Labrador/Boxer cross called Oi!

@LJAKS

Snoop. His medication says snoop, dog.

This has just reminded me that any correspondence from the vet came addressed: Giggorata - Trollop.

Kipling for a Jack Russell

...because he was ruddy 'ard (Rudyard)

A great big standard poodle called Puzzle

A friend at school wanted to call her two kittens Castor and Pollux, but her mother refused on the grounds she didn't want to stand outside in the evening calling out 'Pollux, Pollux' .....

Our current cat is called Pilchard, and one of our dogs is Otto which suits him so well

I know two sausage dogs called Bangers and Mash

I went to high school with a lad who had a cat called Matt.

Simon

Colin He’s just the sweetest dog I’ve ever met I must ask where his owner got his name from

I named my cat Colin and he was really sweet too. My mum named his brother George after her dad and she called our dog Emma after Emma Peel played by Diana Rigg in The Avengers. It suited her because she was a saluki and so beautiful and elegant.

Bob. My tough, no nonsense, little Jack Russell. Sadly no longer with us. But definitely suited his name.

A boxer called Punch. Personally I prefer human names. I've still not got over the tragic story of Alan the dachshund in Conde Nast's revolving door.

I'm the opposite, pets aren’t human so why give them human names? I appreciate that they’re nicer than some humans though and definitely part of the family. My neighbour’s dog was called Miss Chief, she definitely lived up to her name!

I sometimes see a dog called Graham when I’m out walking mine (who is called Bill) which never fails to make me giggle, and yesterday our local police posted about one of their dogs who is called Kev 😂

A friend of mine from the North East often says 'Haway' meaning 'come on then' - as in 'Haway the lads' etc. She called her dog Howie. 'Haway, Howie' sounds great in her accent

I sometimes wish I had called my dog Noddy, because he's got Big Ears.

My neighbour had two dogs called Rigsby and Miss Jones.

Pamela for a gorgeous mongrel
Fforeggub for a buuldog

Hamlet the Great Dane.

Bonkers black greyhound called Ringo.
Elegant although nervy grey greyhound called Fiona.
We have a loopy dog called Alice.
Growing up we had fox terriers: Sophie, Harriet and Henrietta
Friend has a black lab called Ted.

I worked with a woman who had a St Bernard called Tiny.

I the dog name from one of the Ghost Busters film. "Mike Hat"

We recently met a standard Poodle called Mavis in the park - it really suited her. We also knew a female Samoyed called Alan, and there was someone at the park last week calling for Rover and Karen

I recently met an adorable dachshund puppy called Saucisse.

I’ve also met a cat called Wolfie.

I know second hand of a Great Dane called Gus and first hand of a Great Dane called George. George was enormous, I had a call to their house regarding youths causing annoyance and the lady of the house said George likes women in uniform as I walked in, I was like er ok, thinking George was human! Sat taking details and this monster dog walked in, saw me, galloped towards me and 'rested' his head on my knees... his head weighed a ton and I was "so can you describe the kids to me" as I slowly slid off of the couch onto my knees and then George 'rested' his head on my shoulder, I took the rest of the statement on the floor.. they didn't bat an eyelid!

I've had -
Prince - German Shepherd
Sandy - Poodle
Corrie - German Shepherd

Currently have,

Cooper - German Shepherd
Bailey - Greek shepherd
