: Does your dog have a nickname?
: orion5221 October 12, 2005, 08:21:13 PM
Hello all, does your dog have a nickname or names?
Orion - is kitty.... when we brought him home he was the runt and only 3lbs, with his cropped ears and his little body he reminded my  mom of a little kitten and the name has stuck.  We aslo call him  "O" and kitty cane corso ( gotta say it fast :)

Aspen came prenamed to us as we raised him for CCI and he did not make the cut ( low work ethic)  we have just recently starting calling him Woo Woo also :)  One of the things I am teaching him to do is to say his name... it is pretty cute!

Kia's full name is kiahali...  she as of this moment doens't have a true nickname.

You all have cute nicknames.  Mine aren't so creative.

Lily is Lilabear or lilabean.  My daughter calls her silly lily.
Raven is meat head or dumb a** (she get's into a lot of stupid situations lol)  We also call her raisin.

my now three year old couldn't say V's when we got Raven so she called her raisin.  Then my husband starting saying that her coloring looked like cinnamon swirl raisin toast.  Long story.  But the nickname raisin stuck.

Isn't it funny how we all give our pets nicknames?  It's almost like their real name doesn't exist.  Except when their in trouble of course. lol.  And I think kids make it even more fun because we change names to make it easier for them and then they just somehow stick.

Arent' nicknames fun?  :)

Mojo's nicknames are Mojitoes, Bubby (a mix of Buddy and puppy), ol'man and Jay calls him Moldytoes as a play off of the first one.  ???

Faust's are Dingbat, Doofy, Fowder Chowder and Fouse the House.

Zeo's nicknames are Spaz, ZeeZee, Witch and Psycho.

Kida's usually referred to as Rat or Ratdog, luckily she doesn't know that since we don't sign it for her though.   :-X

Tenchi's are Moofin, Tenchisaur, Beast, Moose, Heifer, The Great White Dane and THE BABY.  ie.. THE BABY wants this or THE BABY wants that.  :D

Gyrl's are about as original as her name is.  ::)  Sweetie, Lady, Miss or on days when she has more than the normal accidents  she probably thinks her name is GDI.  lol  For G** Da** IT!   :-[

I use Sanity's nick name probably more than I use his real name.  It's "Nee Nee".  "Nee" for short.  Variations like Neeners, and Nees.  I don't know WHY I started calling him that I just did and it stuck.  Hardcore.  Matt calls him "Moose" (SOOOOO Original for a Dane) and "Old Stupid".  We also call him "Galumph" and "Noodge" and "Momma's Boy" and "Cry Baby".  I hope he doesn't develop a complex.  His full name is Sanity Rufus *Insert Last name here*.

Hobo we call "Hobes" (HOE-bzzzz), "Hobey" (HOE-bee), "Bose" (BOHZE), "Bosey" (BOH-zee), "Hobikins", "Fatty" (He's not really fat, but he's barrel chested compared to the other two who have TINY waists), "the Tank" and Matt's brother calls him "Fuzzy".  His full name is Hobo Harley Earl *Insert Last name here*.

Araby.  Sigh.  I will REFRAIN from any name I call her that has vulgarity in it as that will shorten the list considerably.  I swore, when I was younger, that I would NEVER name a dog "Princess".  We call Araby "Princess" constantly.  She just demands the title.  It sucks.  We also call her "Bibs", "Bibble", Bibbleness", "Bibsy", "Bibble the Fribble", "Arabibble", "Arafribble", "Princess Bibble Butt", "Pretty Girl", "Harpie", "Wench", "Princess Bi-atch", "The Spotted Wh*re" (Ask Moni I really do refer to her with these names ALL the time), and her full name is Araby Francis *Insert Last name here*.

Zeus is either just his name, or "Zeus-ers". Josh calls him "Runt".

Apollo is "Meat-Head", "Jaws" (that one's my favorite!) or Fuzzy-butt. He's also referred to as "Mommy's Boy".

Onyx is "Hair-Ball" (I swear, he makes the cats get them all the time!) or when I'm feeling silly, we call him "Snuf-A-Luf-A-Gus". (when he walks, his belly sways from side to side, adn he snorts A LOT! :D)

Gwen is usually just "Fatty"...

Ranger is "Ranger Roo", "Roo", "Roo-dy", "Roo-dy Roo", or "Rany".  I usually just call him Roo myself when referring to him or cuddling with him.  I really only call him Ranger when I really want his attention...

My beloved departed Cabo was "Bo", "Bobo", and "Mr. B."

Feste's nicknames are Feste-boy, Festivus, Goofus, Grace and Legs (lol- very original, that ;D ). 

Chance gets Chance-i-gator when he's being good; Chance-i-nator when he's destroying something; Chance-tigator (pronounced like instigator) when he's started something that gets all the boys in trouble. 

Puck gets Puckster and THE Puckster... he's also know as my crack-baby puppy, because he just ain't right and he probably came from some crack-house apartments not too far from here. 

Collectively they are 'the boys'.

Sometimes you're smell-ee, we say oh well-ee. my belly-o, I love you so. (This song is sung while he lays on his back spread eagle while I rub his belly) Oh bell !!!
: Re: Does your dog have a nickname?
: Nicole October 19, 2005, 11:54:14 PM
HA!

Well, its sort of hard, its more about the rhythm than the words. And, the rhythm always changes. But, the words are usually like this:

"He's a big big man, he's a big big man. Yes he is! Yes he can!" (Here is where he starts dancing) "Oh! He's a dancin' bear, he's a dancin' bear! He don't know, he don't care!"

HAAHAHAHAHAHHA HA! Mark sings this to him all the time! hahahha! Sometimes I sing it to the tune of "Your a Grand Old Flag". And I add words specific to the situation. So, it'll go something like this,

"You're a big big man, your a big big man. You're going to get a ba-ath. You're a big big man...". etc.

: GrumpyBunny October 19, 2005, 11:55:01 PM
...Sometimes you're smell-ee, we say oh well-ee...
LMAO! 

Our guys have so many songs it isn't even funny.  We change every single song that comes on the radio around to fit our dogs... 

For some reason, I can only remember Cabo songs right now, but here are couple of his...

We would sing "Hey! Ho!  I'm Bo!" to the tune of Blitzkrieg Bop whenever it came on...  That 311 song that goes "amber is the color of your energy..." became "black is the color of the good doggy.."

Oh - here's one for Ranger.  In the Splash Mountain ride at Disneyland, after you splash down, the characters are singing this song, where part of it goes "How do do?  Awfully glad to meet you.." or something like that.  For Ranger, we always sing "Hello, I'm Roo!  Probably going to bite you..."

Yeah, we are freaks...

Harley (Flat Coated Retriever) has many nicknames but the most common - used only by my husband is dorky boy!!  Which is better than what he called him as a puppy, which I think would be censored.

Just like the kids if I get angry with him I use his full name when I call him.
