I call him “Pretentious” for short.

You couldn’t have named him after El Greco?

Well, that’s a mouthful.

Only a show dog would have such a long name, and a show dog he is not!!!

So he’s a paint dog, then?

Just call him Butch.

Obviously not your best pick up line.

I get “So cute” when I walk my dog. I respond “Thank you. I try to take care if myself.”

We call him “Joe” for short …

He’ll answer to pretty much anything.

When naming a dog, the important thing is to come up with something that doesn’t make you sound stupid when you have to shout it out loud.

But that’s only to friends…

So he’s a mutt with an ancestry account?

but for some reason won’t come when i call him

When I was a kid I named one of my dogs DEEOHGEE. When I took him to the vet the first time they asked how to spell it. D O G.

That’s worse than supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

After hearing that, most call him “Doggy”.

He answers equally to “FOOD”.

Jeeze. No wonder the painter drew weird sh…tuff! Can you imagine having to fill out forms with that? “Sign and PRINT your name.” Oh, Jeeze. Not again…

My hubby named Ollie so that, of course, Ollie, Ollie in free!

Reminds me of a comic with 2 dogs. One says my name is no, no. bad dog. What’s yours?

Okay, you made me google that.

He’s a direct descendant of Sancho Panza’s mutt.

Poor baby……

Interesting, also today’s comic… https://www.arcamax.com/thefunnies/spectickles/s-2672136

Uhh… nice doggie!

I almost named my dog Hoover as in the vacuum. The way he ate you would think he was only fed occasionally. He wound up being Babe and was mostly a good dog.

CAT: Felix Frankfurter Fuzzbucket Grandious FFFG, but you can call him Uncle Felix Big Big Big Guy Big Guy for short…

I’ve heard race horse owners have ordinary names for their horses on the paddock. Only on the publicly viewed race track are they referred to by those pretentious-sounding names. Example: “Archer’s Breech” at the track; “Billy” at the stables.

Pissy for short..
