My family dog is a miniature schnauzer called Ruaidhri (pronounced Roory). The name was suggested by one of my aunties and my mum liked it so thats what hes called, not really a great story but thats what happened. The spelling is Gaelic, i think, as is my name again there isnt really a story for this except we are Scottish, I guess thats a good enough reason.Is there a story to go with the names of your dog and soon to be dog? "Frodo" as in Baggins and Amelie as in the film with Audry Tautou?

My rule: two syllables ending on a long vowel. (e.g. Heidi, Emma) This makes it easy for the dog to learn their name, yet avoids confusion with sounds in other words.

My shih-Tzu is named BOOBOO. He reminds us of the little bear in Yogi Bear.

My dogs are named Suede and Tweed. I'm an interior designer and thought it would be fun to go with a fabric theme...my siamese cat was named Cashmere. Suede is in the picture by my name.How did you come up with Frodo? It's cute!www.poshpawz.comPosh PawzUnique Attire for Dogz of Distinction

hi i have a 4 month soon to be 5 month old male shih tzu i named him charlie i dont really know why i called him that i guess because when i first looked at him he looked like a charlie to me and it sorta just stuck so the name seemed to fit right in with him.

We have 2 dogs. Our female is 7 years old, and she is a Rottweiller/ Black Lab mix. We got her at 6 weeks and she was the runt. The grunts she made sounded like a baby pig, so she was named Pig. Our male is 3/4 Husky and 1/4 wolf. He was a year old and already named when we got him. His name is Roscoe.

I have a Golden Lab called Luna.It means moon in spanish and she has this name because we (me and my boyfriend) found her in a park when we were taking a walk in the moonlight, someone had dumped her there and she was only a few weeks old. Thankfully, weve had her for nearly 2 years now and she fit as a fiddle!!

Wrong!Dogs who have passed away:Juno - a black lab, her name picked at random from a bookTiki - Irish Setter, named by a previous owner after Kontiki ExpeditionDougal - Irish Setter, named by a previous ownerFritz - Wire Fox Terrier, named by my dad
