I didn't actually name my dog. I'm not very creative in that arena. When I got him at the shelter he was already named Rocky. I thought it was a cool name, so I kept it. Before my neighbor's kids found out what his name was, they started calling him Black Jack. I was a little jealous I didn't come up with that name. lol

Oh i like the name Black Jack, that would have been a good one for my big black giant schnauzer. Rocky is nice, is he a big dog? just because of the name and all.

I named my mini-schnauzer Rocky because as a puppy he kept eating the rocks in the landscaping of my complex. I thought it would be cool because he was a little dog (3.5lbs at the time) now 15lbs.....a big tough name for a little salt-n-pepper schnauzer!

Nah...he's medium-sized. About 12 pounds. When I got him at the shelter they told me he'd be a small dog. I should've known he would've gotten bigger by those large paws he had.

That's funny. I hope the rocks didn't affect him.
