I Thought This Would Be Fun!

[Deja]

Naming our pups and dogs can be painstaking! Coming up with the perfect name is sometimes a thought provoking and agonizing process!

I thought it would be fun if we could make a list of names.
List all the dogs you have ever owned (even as a kid!), their breed, sex and name.

We could compile a good list here - and see if there are trends, common names, unusual names...

And ideas for people getting and naming pups in the future!
I'll start... Feel free to include their "formal" or Registered names if they have one





Miniature Poodle - Male - Morgan
Terrier Mixed Breed - Female Tori
Sable Collie - Female Beckie **Rebecca Majectica**
Sable Collie - Female Ruby **Ruby Majestica**
Golden Retriever- Male Jack **Jack De Maniac**
Brittany - Male Max **North Valley's Massimo Samson**


** = AKC registered name



Lets see how many names we can get on our list!

Blackie (Cocker/yorkie) and Dutchy (Bassett hound mix) are my first dogs. I have named a few at work though:

Shih-Tzu female - Ruby Tuesday
Maltese female - Peggy Sue
Shih-tese (maltese/shih-tzu)male - Stuart Little (and his "family" kept the name)

I like the names Savannah, and Daphne, if I ever get a bischon, I'll name her one of those.

For a boy I like Duncan, or Donovan.
