[NSC] Did you get your dog’s name WRONG?!

[Bodian]

I've actually never heard of someone who named their dog Fido in reality... seems a complete myth that its a common dog name.

Met one when I was out for a walk just the other day!

This is a tricky one really. Needs a post grad to do some research or something similar

That's asking a hell of a lot for a dog!

 

[Cotton Socks]

Would the dog know if he's called Graeme, Graham, or Grahame?

No one is going to be happy being called Graham no matter which way you spell it, (apologies to Graham's).

Meanwhile, a while ago, I heard someone calling after their dog 'Simon'. Nothing against Simons, but it just seemed like a bit of an odd name for a dog...

Family a few doors down have named their dog Simon. Always seems odd when she's calling out "Simon" for a dog, even after a couple of years. They had a female dog called Alice, which isn't very dog like either, until it went to the great park in the sky.

Ours is named Max which is apparently mostly a dogs name.

We took on a rescue dog from Romania in January 2021 but she seemed so lonely we took on another 2 months later (they had already got on famously together in Bucharest). Already named...... Bruno

My dog doesn't have a human name but if I'd named my dog regarding his personally he'd be called Richard or the slang version, Dick.

And now, you can tell if you got it totally WRONG here. Just saying, like…

TWICE!

My brother in law named his dog ‘Trafford’ because my BIL is a ManU supporter - first mistake - his.

Me shouting “TRAAAAFOOOORD!” repeatedly at the top of my voice in St Anne’s Wells Park cos the dog had buggered off and a group of Chelsea fans shouting back at me each time, at the tops of their voices; ‘STAAAAMFOOOORD!” - second mistake - theirs.

My two youngest dogs are called Leroy and Jenkins. I still find it funny when the wife calls out Leroy Jenkins when she wants them to come indoors.

A friend of mine named her cat Gussie Fink-Nottle after a character in Jeeves and Wooster. Really suits the cat too.

 

[Icy Gull]

This owner clearly got his dog's name wrong. Dog didn't pay any heed to the name 'Fenton'. Similarly didn't pay any heed to the name 'Jesus Christ'

That clip is as funny today as the day I first saw it

We need a post grad dog just needs a post.

 

[Zeberdi]

…dog just needs a post.

So do I, still no christmas cards from majority of friends & family and they’re on strike again today

Long gone are the days where dog barks at postman trying to deliver mail!

I'm certainly not unhappy!

It seems like our last two dogs have been given human names but the given the kids dog names.

Maybe calling the kids Fido and Patch was a mistake.

I said the same recently, there's been a reversal In recent years.

Nothing to do with me – the Bobkin Jnrs chose it – but ours is Bruno. Named after the great man – he was always going to have an Albion-related name, apparently.

Meanwhile, a while ago, I heard someone calling after their dog 'Simon'. Nothing against Simons, but it just seemed like a bit of an odd name for a dog...

My oldest friend Simon, has a dog called Dave

Our Doberwoman 80's/90's was called Tania, we had cats, Richard, Tabatha, Oscar and Timothy.

I had a cat in 1989 called Garry Lager Nelson Mandella, he was a right ****, used to launch at you, straight for the eyes. Shipped out to the country side.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

There was an Alasatian cross called Ian when we had our Collie that came up to Stamner woods....about seven odd years ago, same one?

Leeeeeeroooooooyyyy JEEEEENNNNKIIIIINS!

“Oh god he’s gone in”

My dog was called Granville
Had a dog in the eighties called Fozzie
Had a ginger cat called Ginger at the vets he was registered as Kerry Mayo Ginger Prince.

That’s a shit limerick, doesn’t even rhyme.

Our last dog was more dog name than human 'Wilson'

If you catch him dragging his arse across your best Axminster chances are the little bugger figured it out
