OUr pets names..

At the moment we only have dogs, you wouldn't be interested in the coon dogs, dh named them Bob & John..lol..

we have an australian named Rex

dh also named this other dog Zip (because he runs fast)

We have had in the past, horses, other dogs, cats & a rabbit in the house

Rowdy, Dusty (was a dog & a pony), Sadie, Smokey, Bandit, Laddie, Freckles, Gus, Sheba, Spek, Skippy(rabbit), Bo, too many others to think...Fluffy, Josie (cats)

some others I like Amos for a dog, a friend had a blue heeler named amos

but I agree with the other post about seeing the animal FIRST.. then go from there, I have to look at a dog or any other animal before naming them..

Hi everyone!  I am looking for a name that begins with K...Do you any of you have the perfect ~K~ name for the perfect baby girl coming to our family?  Thank you all for your suggestions!!!

My husband and I are going to be getting a new puppy within the next couple of months.  I don't know if it is going to be male or a female, but we were just having a discussion about what we should end up calling him/her.  We are looking for somthing origional (no "spot" or "fido" or anything like that lol).  Something funny maybe, but nothing we would be embarassed to call him/her in public.

What are some of your guys' favorite "pets" names?

Thanks!!!

My daughter named her female puppy DOG (pronounced Deogee). 

I had a Basset Hound named Mr. Spock.

I had a puppy once who was so quiet when he walked, we called him Sneekers.

A white puppy named Flour.

A raccoon named Goggles.

A ferret named Serendipity (which means finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for).

I have a Peakapom named Ping Pong (he is black and white).

I have a black cat with beautiful eyes named Jeepers (like the commercial "Jeepers Creepers, where did you get those peepers").

Another ferret named Slinky (ever see the ripple effect when you rub your hand down their back)?

A female skunk named Chantilli, my favoride cologne. She was an albino. A male skunk named LeBaron, a favorite men's cologne.

Well, we named Bumper said name because as a puppy, he was clumsy and bumped into everything.

We loved him so dearly that 20 months later, Maggie came along (her AKC papers read Bumper's Princess Magdeline).  We actually named her after Maggie from The Simpsons, who is such a sweet and innocent child.  Now, Hubby wanted to put "Bumper's Lady Margaret" on her AKC papers but I told him I have an aunt named Margaret that I don't like, so it became Bumper's Princess (that, she is) Magdeline.  Plus, I liked the biblical reference.  

Toby, our rescue, was already named.  I guess his original name was Oliver (how cute!!!!) but his first owners changed it to Toby.  Then, when he was around 3, the mother got pregnant and decided she didn't have enough time for him.  Don't get me started on folks like that.  Dogs are a lifetime commitment (unless there are aggression issues, etc.).

Now, we have so many nicknames for each dog, it's not funny.  If you want to hear them, I'll post them when I have time.  Somehow, Bumper ended up being called Beef but I don't remember why. 

Also, we've tried to breed Bumper and Maggie (our rescue is a neut) with no success.  If they ever do have puppies, I'm going to do a theme.  Right now, I'm thinking of names from the Broadway play Cats.  There are so many cute names in that play!

My pooch will only eat the food in the center part of his bowl. I'm not quite sure why he won't eat the food around the sides.

Any a bit out of the norm pets out there?  And those who have more popular pets, any interesting tricks or traits?     (like beer drinking fish ... Lol)

I am having a similar problem with my neighbor.  Her yard adjoins our yard and she puts out food for the deer right on the property line.  I don't mind the deer as they are pretty to watch, but it has gone from 2-3 deer from 5 years ago to nearly 10 deer constantly including bucks.  They walk from the woods through our yard to go to her yard to eat.  It has gotten to the point where the deer are roaming about all hours of the day, not just at dusk.  I, too, see them roaming the neighborhood.  One has come up on my front porch before.  I have small children as do my other neighbors and I am concerned that they are going to startle the deer and someone might get bitten.  I tell my kids to not to ever approach the deer and give them their distance.  I am also concerned about deer ticks too.  

I asked her if she would not feed the deer on the property line as it is causing a potentially unsafe situation and she got very huffy about it and said she was an animal lover and it was her right to feed the deer if she so desired.  I tried to explain to her about the kids, not only mine but other kids, and the dangers of wild animals being in the yard and roaming around and she basically told me to "mind my own business."

I don't know in Pennsylvania what the laws are about having deer for pets or feeding them, etc, but I have heard in other states it is illegal. 

Got a problem...

I had a Pomeranian for 5 years.  Had a cat for 4 months. 

Last month I found out I was going to have to move (could not afford the old house any longer) and I found an apartment that would allow me to have my dog.  Then, lo and behold, 2 weeks ago (4 days before I moved), someone stole my dog out of my backyard (no, did not get loose - someone took him).  I canvassed the neighborhood, had the police visit several homes that were possible snatchers, but ended up having to move without finding him.

Well, the landlord would still not allow me to keep the cat even with paying a nice fat animal deposit so today I had to turn him over to the humane society.  My daughter had planned on taking him, but he was just a little too aggressive for the 1 year old granddaughter.

So, now, I am sitting here missing my babies and thinking I am going to have to get another dog.  Obviously I do not have a lot of money to spend on another dog, but I need and want the companionship and the fun that comes along with a dog.  So, some suggestions on what you think would be the best for me to get.

I really love the dogs with all the hair (Shih Tzu, Pomeranian, Pekingese, etc), but I also think how nice it would be not to have all the hair all over me and the house.  I also think that a "mutt" might make a good choice, but upon my visit to the humane society today to turn over my cat, there was nothing but big dogs and I had to move into an apartment, so I think that would be too much.

Darn it, I am just lonely and feel like I have lost 2 of my kids right now!

So how or why did you come up with the screen name you use here?
