Dog Names

[Gunslingergirl]

When I was a kid we had a black lab named Sheba.  Her AKC name was Lady Sheba of Midland.  Don't ask me why.

My Dad had a Yellow Lab he named Augustus McRae after the character in Lonesome Dove.  We called the dog Gus and it suited him perfectly.

Dad now has a female Yellow Lab named Marlie.  He inherited her and she was already named, but the name suits her.  She's a very dainty, ladylike dog.

Hey Daniel,

I'm gonna be in one of our spots this weekend, Daniel.
 
Remember where we stopped and shot jackrabbits in the flats way back when we camped in Red Rock with Matt?  We'll be due east of there, up in the canyons north of the ranch house that's on the main road.
 
I'll give you a call and let you know if we find any bears.  If nothing else, I want a re-match with a certain fox...

Daryl, Good luck on that Fox, you owe him.  

Daniel, no worries about me wiping out any game populations, I don't see me getting out west again anytime soon.

I have 3 dogs: Angus, Duncan and Cowen.  We stick with Irish or Scottish names of 2 syllables, each one distinct from the other (they are also the names we had chosen for any male children, but I got all girls).  Cowen is a Beagle we got a few weeks ago (the others are 13 and 12 y/o). With each name my daughters came up with I told them to picture themselves yelling it across the neighborhood or woods; that cleared up a lot of the foolishness.  I do like the advice for 1 syllable ending in "K".   KD

My current dog, a golden retriever, is named Corbett, for James Edward Corbett.  I convinced my parents to name their new golden Rigby, for John Rigby.  My brother's black lab is named Pondo, an abreviated version of Pondoro or John "Pondoro" Taylor.  I had another friend that named his female Springer Norma.  You get the idea.  There are plenty of good gun and hunter names out there.  Parker is a good one, ****, even Purdy of Purdy shotguns, Winchester, Bell (William "Karamojo" Bell), Holland, Westley (Westley Richards shotguns), Griffin (Griffin and Howe), how about Dakota?

Dakota works for me...

Dog names?! :huh:
My 2nd son is called Rigby (as in John Rigby & Sons)! :D
Our youngest is even called Remy.....although that wasn't meant to be short for Remington.
You guys need to be more ambitious - dogs indeed!

I never thought much about dog names but always liked a name that was easy to holler real loud like "Bo" or "Buck." As a youngster down in the mountains I had a half breed grey fox/dog mix named Trixie. It was very difficcult to yell loudly. Nice little dog but ran with foxes at night. Wild and timid.  ........Paul H

Gee Paul, I thought dog was staple of a hillbilly's diet.

It was Paul, along with several guns. We would have starved for meat if it wasn't for those two things. Most everyone had several dogs and guns. Most dogs we ever had at one time was about eighteen counting pups. ......Paul H
