I have a friend who said she's going to name her next dog Hoover. I thought that was cute, and I like it because it's different.

A friend of mine recently got a cute little Pappillon, she named him Pickles, which I thought was a very cute little dog name. Your little guy could be a pickles

Oh Pickles is cute !!! Reminds me of the old Dick Van Dyke Show. Remember Buddy used to talk about his wife Pickles? Or am I the only one old enough to remember that?

I like the name Odie ,, odie odie,,, odie,, but you will have to pick one that goes with his personality. I also ment to add, so weird that they gave him away cause they were splitting up. Usually it's a fight over the dog , cat, kids, screwdrivers..

No, you are not the only one to remember. In my own defense though, I used to watch it on reruns.

Trying to think of something to do with him getting a new life, or how loved he is now.

What about Moose? It'll give him some stature

I also like Crinkles, Ferdinand, Newman and Clover.

I've heard of a few pups named Nike, after the running shoe (sneaker) manufacturer. What about using one of the name brand sneaker names? I also knew one called Reebok but that is hard to say quickly.


Under Manufacturer at this link you will find some other company names.
