It me with names we can call a dog please.

We have Monty (passed away) Betsy and Murray.

It must be a human name and I like old man names. Percy is my favourite so far but open to suggestions please.

I think Ralph is a great name for a dog as when your calling him "Ralph,... RALPH,...... RALPH" it will sound like you're barking or having a conversation with him. Grin

...my children are obsessed with Nick Cope at the moment.

Also met a Golden Retriever called Chris the other day whose owner also used to have a dog called Phillip.

I knew a dog called Roach. I asked the owner if he was called that because he had a part missing. But apparently not.

My friend has a pug called Brian. Which is fab.

I think Roger is a good name for a dog. Or Richard.
My dog is called Dave. He's the best dog in the world

Basically you need to be calling a middle aged man's name out in the park.

Or something like Marmaduke. Or Fido.
