Best Dog Names.

Cosmo something simple.

The Monks of New Skete wrote an excellent German Shepherd book. They recommend that owners name their companions with names ending in a vowel as the dogs respond better.

Taxi.

Sounds awesome when you call.

Last summer while prospecting out in the Bitterroots I was gassing up at a truck stop and encountered a filthy young man with that rasta hippy look going on grabbing a rest in the shade with a bad ass looking little chihuahua. The kid looked thirsty and hungry and so did the dog. The kid was sniping cigarette butts.

He looked like he didn't have much other than his backpack and nasty looking sleeping bag and his over all look had me guessing he was a west coast kid. I bought him some fresh fruit, a pouch of Top tobacco, bottled water, and pouches of wet food for the dog. I Asked a few questions, gave him a $20 and went on my way.

What stuck in my mind of that day was not the name of the kid, but the name of the tough looking little chihuahua...Mr. Big. That little dog and his personality, in the few minutes i spent with him giving him food and water, and his name, Mr. Big, still crack me up. I guess you have to be a dog or animal person to get it.

Here's another one that came to memory: My ex had a Chihuahua that was so frail and fragile it could barely eat. Eggshell skull, bulging eyes, timid and trembling like jello. It had a black leather collar with metal spikes on it. It's name was Spike.

Thanks. I'm sure your dog means a great deal to you. That's what I'm trying to somehow acknowledge with this thread is just how much our pets add to the characters and stories in our lives. Our family, friends, etc. Names mean something. What we name our dogs and other animals says so much about us.

My dogs name is Godric

I asked him what he thought his name should be.

He barked.

So...when I want to call him I bark, trying to make it sound as much like what he said when I asked him.

Sometimes he doesn’t come to me when I bark at him, he just barks back at me.

We’ll just stand there for hours barking at one another. Shit gets weird in the dog park sometimes. Other dogs start barking. People seem uncomfortable and often leave. It feels very similar to what happens here on GLP.

Hilarious. You should include the Hillary barking clip.

When I get a dog, I'm going to be naming him Charlie, Charles when he's naughty.

A friend of ours had the same dog, I think. Only his name was "Buford" (after the sheriff in "Walking Tall").

We've had a lot of great dogs. Some of the more unusual names have been: Rudolph (the Black-nosed Rain Dog), Waddles, Monkey, Meatball, Mr. Snuffles, Moochie, and Nike (had a perfect Nike Swoosh on her neck as a puppy, but then as she got older the darker hair covered it up.)

I'll have quite a welcoming committee when I Go Home!

My dogs are Aries & Sirius Lee *His eyes are blue like the dog star* & my most beloved cat is Nibby Roo Roo. His nickname is Nibirooty Fluffy Booty.
