afrancis Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Talking about whether our dogs know their names, and at the risk of humiliating myself, I thought it would be funny (or just plain wrong ) if we shared the nicknames we have for our dogs. Here are Skye's, in no particular order (besides increasingly embarrasing ... ) Skye = skye-dog, skye-the-wunder-dog, bink, binkily-winkily, weiner, dinkily-winkily, poo-head, licker-of-bum/kisser-of-faces. Okay, that's enuf. Your turn. Ailsa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Goofball How did I forget that one?! At a flyball tournament earlier this year, Zeb was being his usual goofy self and as someone was walking by he had a moment of "OH! I think I like them!" silliness, which usually involves spinning and wiggling. She called him a goofball and he smiled and wiggled back at her. I could totally see him thinking "That's my name!" LOL! I don't call him that quite so much anymore, but I must have overused it when he was younger... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSnappy Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 My dogs know their own names, their myriad of nicknames, each other's names and nicknames, their friends' names - dog, cat and human - and they also know their toys' names (Fifa, Wootie Toy, Ball, Not This Ball, That Ball etc.) They also all believe that they are in trouble if one of them is in trouble. The "F" word sends them all scurrying away to hide. If one gets in trouble I have to smile at and love on the other two so they don't think it's them. And if there are cookies involved any time I ask someone for a behaviour, I may get that behaviour from all three dogs even if I only asked the one. When there are no obvious cookies, I pretty much just get it from the one. Mr. Woo is aware that he has many many names (Woo, Wootie, Tricky, Tricky Woo, Mr. Woo, Noodles, Noods, WooHoo! Woot! etc.) and persistently ignores each and every one of them. I am thinking about just changing his name to "Stupid Dink" and getting it over with already. RDM ETA - this ended up in the wrong thread, and I'm not really sure how that happened. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

storminthenight Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 Lol, well I'm glad I'm not the only one with silly nicknames for my dog. Lootah = Loo, Loot, Looty and somehow I started calling him Woo, lol. My mum calls him LooLoo, which I hate, lol. Dont have to many for Sakari right now, Just Kari for short and then my mum is lazy and calls her Kar My Labrador that passed last year was called Gremlin, some of his were Grem, Gremy, Grempypoo, Gremyloo, Gremgrems. We had him for 12 years so we had quite a few for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
