I chose this name for my puppy due to the fact that my late Mums maiden name was Mackay, I wanted to name her with a name that had a relevance to my Mum.
i have a dog named Muneca, we chose this name because my mother had a dog of this name, too. when she was younger.:)
I have a dog named Io. She is australian cattle dog and Australian shepard. She is three now. I named her after jupiters moon. we live in michigan.
Have a beautiful black and white long-haired kitty named Satchel - found him in a vinyl zip-up bag with three other kittens. They were all so beautiful, found homes for all in one afternoon!
Riding home from the Hawaiian Humane Society, we tried out a number of different names, and Kona was what she responded to. She's a tri-color Springer Spaniel (brown and black and white) living in Honolulu, so Kona suits her well...!
I named my female Chiweenie puppyChandler Bingbecause I love the show Friends, and Chandler is my favorite character on the show.
I just named my purebred Boxer, Juno. My husband liked the name "Hera" but I didnt'. I searched for countless hours for a dog name that 'fit' her and came across "Juno". I liked it and it just so happened to be the same as "Hera"...it's PERFECT. The meaning of Juno/Hera is why I named my dog this name.
Sparky turned up at our workshop....He was a stray. Our workshop is an Auto Electrical Shop.....Hence the name Sparky
I named the Great Pyrenees White Dog because he is .... a white dog!
My dog Allegra left this world in 2001 - she was a black lab/golden retriever/Newfoundland mix. She was the sweetest doggie in the world. My late husband and I got her from a puppy box in front of a Fred Meyer store in Lynnwood, WA in June of 1988 - she was 2 months old. The night I brought her home - I fed her and she started bouncing around - she was such a happy dog. "Allegra" means HAPPY in Italian, and my husband was Italian/American - he gave her the name - also because allegro is a musical term - and she was my "peppy puppy" - but the thing that cinched the name was that evening there was an episode of "Hunter" on television - and the episode was entitled "Allegra" - and so, the name was hers - my sweet Allegra girl. She's been gone for all these years, but I still miss her every day.
