Sorry for the strange title. I have two dogs:
- Tilly - (♀) - Named by my mother, so I had no say, and do not know why, my great grandmother on her side had a dog named Tilly though, so maybe that's where it came from.
- Dot(ty)- (♀)- Named so because she is a jack russel cross breed, and has one large spot on either side of her. Also has a strange jaw, so always appears to be smiling.
I also had:
Toby/Tobias - (♂) - Named by me when I was younger and it was the name of the character in a book I was reading, so I chose that name. I love the name Tobias even now.
Bosco- weenie dog,named from a seinfeld episode, born during hurricane Katrina and suffered several health problems in the beginning.
Dottie- weenie, dog named because of her dots, is a full size imbred dachshund, deaf, adopted her at 6 months from a rescue shelter no one wanted a deaf dog.
They are like me children!!!
Mocha (who has unfortunately passed away, but I thought I'd metion her anyway) Mix of mostly Lab and Golden Retriver. I think she was named so because she was a "mocha" color.
Fiona a Bison Friese, I did not name her my grandmother did. But I think, for a Bison, Fiona is a pretty good name.
My boxer dog is named Fhiann, which is the Irish word for Warrior. My brother named him after our first dog (a rotweiler) who was called Warrior, but as both myself have Irish names, he wanted the puppy to have one too! Its great, cos he'll never get his name mixed up with another dog's! (not that he responds to his name all the time, he has selective hearing my dog, worse than a child!) :)
Rico-he's a long hair chihuahua. I wanted him to have a Mexican name since chihuahua originate from Chihuahua, Mexico. I went to a website of Mexican names and wrote down about 5 I liked. Asked Mom, Dad, Brother and Best Friend whether they liked or disliked each name. Rico was the only name they all like and as soon as I called him, Rico he ran over to me.

My dog is a mixed breed. She's mainly a black lab with some greyhound in her. Her name is Maddie because, well, we liked that name. She does, however, have the middle name Jet because of how fast she can run. (Which trust me, is VERY fast!) :)
Hey Zenstoren - Border Collie, like mine! They're the cutest, aren't they? The smartest, also.. :)
My dog's name (and it's totally my "fault") is Shahar, which in Hebrew means dawn. He's black and white, and in Hebrew that works well (Shahor + Lavan => Shahar). You'll just have to trust me :)
Originally when I first got her my boyfriend named her Envy. His mother and I really werent too keen on the name and we both liked the name Lucy instead, so he agreed on it.
My yorkie is named Cherry because Jerry the mouse was the first animal that popped into my head as I searched for a name and because the way it's written is boring I used the cherry one. LOL.
I have a westie-poo called angel. I think i called her angel cuz she is as snowy as an angel.(if i was to call her by her behavior i would have to call her Pestie or DEVIL!!! =~]
I named my dog Barrett, after Syd Barrett. My older dog, who died last summer was Brioche-named because her fur was the golden melted butter color of a brioche.
Dottie- weenie, dog named because of her dots, is a full size imbred dachshund, deaf, adopted her at 6 months from a rescue shelter no one wanted a deaf dog.
They are like me children!!!
Benson - My dad named him, and no, he doesent smoke. :P
it means Wild rose...
