To name my pet dog Keith?

[ilovepuppys]

Have been told it's ridiculous ?!

He looks more like a Paul to me...
Don't get people saying 'it's been done to death' What has? Giving a pet a name? Are we all meant to stick with Fido, Towser and Rex then?

I forgot to say, my dad worked with a guy whose dog was called Tam. That always tickled me. Great Scottish name for a pet

Look, name your pet what you want, but really don't think you are hilarious because you called your dog Dave.

The people that think Dave the dog is hilarious are the same people who think penis beaker was hilarious.

Yanbu. That is very definitely a Dennis. Or Philip at a push .. or, er, Rocky? Ricky?
Ok, Keith.

I love it.

I really love naff names for pets. I persuaded my friend to call her cat Ken.

My kids' rabbits were Steve and Maureen.

He is definitely a Keith.

It's an awful name for humans or dogs 😱

Do it! Our chickens are called Kevin, Clive and Zoltán. They're transgender chickens of course, but luckily biology trumps identity so they continue to lay eggs

Keith or maybe Ian ?

When we got our cat I wanted to call him Keith or ken. He ended up being Colin. I have a hankering for a pooch and when I do he will be called Alan

I have a cat called Barry too, more often called "Fat Baz"

Go for it.
I have friends with a Colin, Shetland and a Clifford, Cob.

I have cats called Ian Jeff and Dave

I love it.
Sit, Keith. I said sit, Keith. No, not on the table, Keith. Keeeeith!!!

Do it! I have an Alice and and Audrey I also know a dog called Vera and a Brian. I love animals with people names 😂

Ok, I give up. You are all unfunny heathens.

I have to go feed my cat Tibbles von Futhsenhoffen III.

In the horsey world there is something of a trend for giving your horse an old man’s name as a stable name , such as Stanley (my personal favourite) Arthur, Derek, Horace, Fred, etc. And lots of general human names - Oliver, Bill, Bob. This is especially true when they have a poncey registered (or passport) name. I kind of prefer two syllables for a dog, easier for recall, but my last two were Sam & Star, & they came to their names ok.

I have a friend with a cat called Ian and another with dogs called Wilma and Alan. Love Keith for a dog.

I generally don't call dogs human names in case I offend someone in the park, but people get called anything nowadays so just go for it!

I’ve alays wanted a Bassett hound called keith, it make me laugh so much.

It also cos I love keith moon too. If I had two they’d be called Keith and John (Entwistle)

We have a dachshund called Jimmy, his name suits him

I LOVE human names on animals. We have a dog called Steve and cats called Ken and Gary. Go for it!

YANBU. It’s mandatory to give all pets the name of a middle aged person (in my head at least ).
