I have had dogs and cats most of my life. I usually name them with a discriptive name, or a cutesy one. Cloud the cat, he was grey with white cloud like patches. Lady my dog, she was so gentle and lady-like even as a new born pup. Blackie the cat - yup you guessed right, all black. Short Nose, Blackies brother - his face was smooched up and his nose was short. Precious the cat. She was, well, just Precious. Then I got Messy the cat. Everyone misheard her name and called her Missy, so I gave in. She loved to play in her water dish. Dumped her toys in the water then would bat them all over. What a MESS! When I got the last two cats I decided I was too old for cutesy names so I named them Fred and Ethel, after the neighbors on the old I Love Lucy show. The names really fit them too!

What kind of dog it was? |
I actually took forever to find a name for my fish. Yea, sorta sad that I've got just one fish, but he's still going strong. But I finally named him Rhiannon. A friend of mine suggested it and have my Betta fish whooped up on 2 different algae eaters, I thought the name suited him.
Growing up we had several pets 4 dogs(3 Norweigen Elk Hounds:Silver Bear,Silver Dawn,Silver Shadow((The first two were show dogs,the last was one of the 'sons' of the other two.))I suppose My dad named them this way because of the beautiful sliver/black coats they get. and 1 Mutt :Buddy ((not a very smart dog like farseer said about Phuzz)) We also had two outside cats Midnight,because he was black,and Valentine,because we got her on valentines day one year. Also we had a parakeet named BJ,because I was young and got to name him(cant remember why though)and a cockateal named Woody,because he was always pecking on BJ,and we linked it at the time with woody the wood pecker.
My folks now have a Begal named Yankee Doodle Dandy,I dont know why they gave this name to a dog,but it fits him well.
Currently my household has 3 pets, 1 Tabby cat (brown with black stripes and a white chest and feet)named Friday,he has many alias's though.
1:The fuzz
2:furry
3:fuzzer
4:stripey
5:El gato diablo, I think he's on to me ,because he just jumped on my lap and wont let me type,but i will give you one more.
6:lickey laroo, all these names fit one or more of his personalities(he should be selling cat food --> .
And I wont forget the two hermit crabs Bruno named for his strength,and Pain for his rather large purple pincher.
I wish the edit didnt disappear.
Anyway,I forgot to mention the Horse we had when I was a kid,his name was Buck,because he was a buckskin.He was old but really fast,and smart.(He could open the gate and let himself out).
My wife had a horse when she was young that loved to drink Jack Daniels,She has pictures to prove it too. All you had to do was crack it open and he came a runnin'.
