The names people call their dogs

I was in hysterics this arvo... took G to the local dog park and all the regs are there, Lewis the airedale, Rex the Alsatian, Scoopy the beagle, Suskia the Dalmation, et all then a schnauser turns up with its owner. Ok so what do you call a schnauser? Fritz, Zigfried, Tristan, Osolde even perhaps Goebells or Adolf..... this one was named, now don't laugh too much, Tanschnauser....
Oh Dear Me....

A stray Jack Russell adopted my family in Ceduna.
His brown spots prmpted us to call him Rusty, because everything else goes rusty in Ceduna.
Cheers Chris

Only because memory fades when age creeps up (so they tell me), we called our two GSDs

Bonnie and Clyde, because it goes together and is easy to remember. I know its a pretty dull reason, but do not want to overtax the grey matter too much LOL.

Have a good one

This is in memory of our beautiful "Rusty " We took him home from RSPCA when we worked as volunteers.  He was a red cloud kelpie and the best companion man or woman could have. He was with us for 9 years and endeared himself to everyone.
He passed away 11 months ago. RIP RUSTY.

Liz and Ed

DEVIL was called that as a tiny pup by my friends' grandchildren, as he wouldn't stay in the basket with his siblings, but would get out and go exploring all the time.
I also got his half-sister, as they were always together, and didn't like to be seperated. She was pure white at the time, so she was named ANGEL.
Chihuahuas' of course. Best little watch-dogs.
Cheers,
xina.
