Re: how did you choose you dogs name?


When Molly's litter was born I had originally been waiting for a liver/white bitch that I was planning to call Ruby but when I went to see them there was just something about her that none of her litter sisters had. There were 4 livers and 3 blacks and we chose each other.
I was then left without a name as OH insisted that we couldn't call her Ruby. My kids squabbled for ages and eventually settled on Molly.

Charlie just looked like a cheeky Charlie but it does cause some confusion as she is a she not a he

My last lab had the most enormous paws as a pup and my dad said he has feet like a navvy so he ended up being called Paddy

We also had a BC called Kelly when I was growing up named by my mother after a TV prog apparantly.

We named Fudge after her mum. We adopted Fudge from a rescue and her mum was still there. She had raised a litter of 11 pups on the streets of Manchester in December. We reckoned such a super mum needed remembering.

Our big Newfie Nelson is a water dog, so I named him after Admiral Lord Nelson.

The rotties, as they are from Roman times are named after the two emperors, Nero and Caesar,

Smeags is short for Schmeagol, the character from lord of the rings,

And Mea was already named by Shona.

Skye was named after the Isle of Skye where we go a lot. We were considering calling him Storm, which would have suited his personality better I think.
