My sons named our black lab 'Ninja'. Is your dog's name daft too?

How silly do I feel calling 'Ninja' across the fields? At least he's whistle trained now.

What's yours called and why?

    I have a Bull Terrier who is named "Crap Weasel". She is deaf, so we have to sign it. She has a nasty habit.

    Our lurcher pup is all black so we call her Jet

    My niece has 2 English Bull Mastiffs. They are absolutely huge. One is called Renie (short for Katrina) and the other is called Charlie (short for Charlene). Imagine calling that pair across a field. Sound like 2 old women.

    We have a Lhasa Apso (small fluffy dog) and when we bought him he was about 16 weeks old. Because he was the runt of the litter and the breeders hand reared him, they called him Hercules. Can you imagine having to shout that across the field? We quickly changed his name to Harvey-suits him much more and it never confused him as we never ever called him by his original name!

    My mum called our nine month old german shep cross Muffin cos she said when she was a puppy her ears looked like muffin tops. Now imagine me stood on the edge of the field shouting come here Muff.

    Was a good ice breaker with the lads at work though when my mum came to pick me up with dog in tow and i said "Have you seen my muff"

    Nah, our lab/rottie is named Sgt Pepper. He loves his bright colored bandanas and collar, but has a very military bearing. Its perfect.

    A lab named Ninja though? That is awesome! The world's clumsiest ninja.

    I used to have a neighbor with a yellow lab that was named Spot-never understodd that one.

    Not a dog, but a rabbit almost called Terence (talked him out of it, now Bugsy) and fish called Sportacus. That's what happens when you let three year olds name the pets!

    When I was about 10 years old, I had a dauchsund that I named Itchy, from the movie All Dogs Go to Heaven? My dad continuously called him Moron because he was convinced he was a stupid dog. Needless to say, instead of Itchy, he came to the name Moron. Thus, we had a weeny dog named Moron.

    My friend was thinking about getting a West Highland Terrier, she was considering names for it and came up with turnip as she wanted a "cute wee Scottish name". Thankfully for her (or that poor wee dog) she decided not to get a dog at that time.

    My dog is called Stitch. He is a Jack Russell. We got him from our local dogs home and he was neutered. When we picked him up he still had his stitches in and couldn't think of a name that suited his looks. Hence his name.

    My dog (she was very old and recently had to be put to sleep) was called Mops because she was cream and shaggy and her head looked like a floor mop!

    She was a sweet lovely girl and I miss her so.

    My brother named a series of our dogs Turbo II. No one really knows why. We also had a cat named flavee (pronounced flaw-vee). Weird.
