[David Jamieson]

GDA would name it Hitler or something. lol

Rommel is a good name for a dog, imo.

i thought 'lover of peanut butter' was funny.

i think animals should demonstrate their names, give him some time to show who he is and then name him.

my dog's name is Lapa; he's a big Swiss Bernese; he had huge paws as a puppy, so I asked my wife how to say paw in Russian, it's "lapa", and it stuck;

he is stupid; profoundly, mind-bogglingly, unfathomably stupid; well, not really, but he looks it, especially when he stares up at the rain...and he seems to get smarter when there's snow on the ground; but he's actually very sweet, very gentle - for example, when I am playing rough w/him, if my son wanders into the picture, the dog will stop on a dime and tone down his energy immediately - not bad...

The Bernese is one of my favorite breeds...a shame they have relatively short livespans...have they worked that out of the breed yet?

The one dog I've had in my adult life we ended up naming 'Loki'. Not too original as all puppies get in to mischief but there you go...

having been a huge fan of the comic 'Calvin & Hobbes' I named the tabby stray that i picked up about 10 years ago 'Hobbes' ...it's a she but she hasn't seemed to mind the gender switch.

in high school we had 3 dogs: a dane/lab mix, a miniature alaskan spitz and a pug.

Joshua, Twiggy and GG...or The Big, the Bad and the Ugly.

The pug was actually papered as "Glorious George's Georgous Girl" after her father. We got her when at 12 weeks when she just fit in your hand...she grew up wrestling with the dane/lab and chasing the spitz. When she was a year old we took her back to her parents and she weighed 5 pounds more than her sire...all muscle. Most people took her for a small bulldog. She was awesome.

I have a flat-coat retriever http://www.fcrsainc.org/photogallery...lethwaite.html
his name is Hung-Jai (Bear) and he is a total mush. Touch his head and he will immediately drop,roll over and demand a belly rub.
But he is well trained in Hung-Ga

i used a book by adam catz called "secrets of a professional dog trainer,

a guy named Catz wrote a book on dogs?

[GunnedDownAtrocity]

a guy named Catz wrote a book on dogs?

i misspelled it . . it's katz, but yup. i saw the irony myself when i purchased the book.

[Laukarbo]

well if u add an e to Katz as in Katze then u have the german word for cat..

Protector - beschÜtzer is correct


the letter Ü sounds like,if u know cantonese ,the word kuen ..now say it without the K and N...

I have a (now) chubby little lap dog. cavalier king charles spaniel

His name is Oliver.

turns out he begs for food a lot.

go figure. lol

[IronFist]

Polizei is kind of a cool name. You could call him "Poli" for short (pronounce with a long "o", NOT like "polly." But people might confuse that with "Pauli." n/m

[Lucas]

Name it Zerstörer der Welten !!!!!!

[TenTigers]

I always thought,"Rik" was a cool name.
and would only be fair, after all, I was named,"Rik" by my sister, after the neighbor's German Shepard.

I keep hearing Sean Connery's voice in my head saying,"We named the dog Indiana!"

[Oso]

now i'm thinking of the Barbara Walter's interview with Connery: '...if it's warranted...'
