Makima means Maximus in Hawaiian. I wanted to name her after my Mom's dog Max. My grandmother was from Hawaii and I thought the name sounded very feminine.
My YELLOW LABRADOR dog was 2 months old when I acquired it. It had at the time the feet of a -almost- full size dog and that is why I named him after the big footed hobbit Frodo
I named her April because that was the month she became part of our family in 1996. She was a tiny puppy then. April is a mix of labrador and god knows what else. She is my girl dog.
Because he's so low to the ground!
My husband and I have always had pitbulls, I do love all dogs and I also favorite Labs. But my little girl "Candy" was born on March 23, 2001 7 years old is our love. We always loved pitbulls trained and love by the right owners these amazing animals bring so much joy to your life. Every pit we owned were always protective of our children, would not alone anyone near our fence that they did not know. They funny thing is we have 3 boys, 3 girls and Candy always new who to play with and who just like kissing and petting her. With the boys she run around with and jump, the girls she would crawl up to them so they can pet her and kiss her. Now our grandchild all adore her.All they need is lots of love!
My puppy knew I loved her but she never came to me when I called her by sadie, rather ignored me . she was sweet, funny and a charactor with a mind of her own. In desparation trying to communicate I told her she had banjo eyes. No sooner was the name said,her ears perked,her tail started and she ran across the floor and into my arms. I guess she already had the name in mind, and was waiting for me to catch on. her full name is banjo lou who to which she always responds. she is three, and I can't say her name without smiling. she picked her own name!
His name was chosen for two reasons: Santana Moss the NFL player and Carlos Santana. Favorite musician and sports athlete.
My son named her after David Beckham...her real name is Miss Beckham, but we call her Beckham. she is a Parson's Jack Russell Terrier.
Thank you.
I named my dog Chase because during the first week that we brought him home, he was known as "puppy". We didn't have a name for him! Then I noticed that he chased everyone around the house whenever someone was wearing socks! Thats when the name Chase popped into my head and the name just suits him perfectly. He also likes to be chased when we go to the park or when he is off his leash!! He couldn't have a more perfect name that fits his personality.
