Well Roxy...well at first i was considering to name her Diamond, Electra, Trinity,or Beau. My mom liked Trixie and Pixie....But i was like umm no. Well i came up with the name roxy. My mom did not like the name becasue she said it sounded like a strippers name. lol . Well roxy does like to take her clothes off o i guess it fits her. Plus i love that song ROXY from the movie chicago, and also from what i understand Roxy is also a clothing brand..


What names where you considering for your dog? Why did you choose it?

we werent expecting to get two girls when we went to the breeders to see the pups that were just born from the female i chose from,we were to get a male but could not resist the 8 week old little girls that were still there from the other litter.So we had no girl names picked out.The breeder already was calling the one female TRINITY cause of the white "T" on her chest so that name stuck.The other little girl i didnt want a real girly girl name so she was gonna be "MISS THANG" but then i thought of ZEE-NA and that stuck.So now on their papers they are registered as " TRINITY,GEOFFS DAWG" (cause she is my hubbies pride n joy) and then there is "ZEE-NA,MY BLUE WARRIOR"(she is my baby). Blue warrior cause they are blue brindle pits.

snickers, my dd named her too, she likes the candy bars.

mocha, my dd named him because he's black.

lemon the parakett dd named because she is yellow.

tiger the kitten dd named because he is soooo wild.

My 18-month-old, female, Golden Retriever's name is Kelsey...I have always wanted a light golden female Golden Retriever name Kelsey...I thought that would be pretty...I actually saw that name on a sample dog tag...when I saw that name I pictured a Golden Retriever. Kelsey's middle name is Coleen after my wonderful grandma Kathy Coleen.

My 9-week-old, male, Parson (Jack) Russell Terrier's name is Jackson. I just thought that name sounded cute...I really don't know how I thought of it. His middle name is Troy after my dad Kevin Troy. I name my dog's/cat's middle names after my family members.

I had a black cat named Felix Eugene...Eugene after my wonderful grandpa Floyd Eugene.
I had a dog name Trooper Floyd after of course the same grandpa...Trooper died in the summer of 2003...I was of course very upset but that's when I got Kelsey.

Layla was already named when we got her, and I didn't change it. Good thing, cause her name would have been "hurry up and go pee"

My boyfriend wanted to call one of our children (when we eventually have some) Floyd. He mentioned it for years but I hated it from day one because I thought he'd be called "Pink" and teased at school. So when Leigh first saw Floyd I knew he wanted to buy him straight away so I whispered "Hey! We can call him Floyd! What a great name!!!"....

And THAT is the BEST idea I have EVER had!!!

I named my chocolate lab Bailey because he reminded (for some odd reason) of the drink.....Baileys Irish Cream....i know its tan colored and all but I don't know....I guess mixed with coffee it could be more of a chocolate color. My othere pups name is Angel b/c that was the name she had when I got her! :)

My mom picked the name Joe. No reason but he never gets called by his real name!

I got my cats name Rags from a story a teacher read to us about this stuffed dog coming to life and naming him rags. Her name has changed to Miss Kitty. ha

I'm going to the humane society Saturday and I want a girl, and I'm thinking of naming her Gracie or Sophia(like the actress on the gilden girls). I'll figure it out once I see her. =)

Popeye- well Bostons, just act like mini Popeyes short stout, and well have pop eyes

Olive Oyl- she is popeye's girlfriend so fitting name

Spook - got her at a horrible animal shelter where this cruel man picked her up by the scruff of the neck and slung her down on the concrete in front of us when we asked for him to get her out so we could adopt her, terrifyed she took off and hid under an old pallet so I had to coax her out, the name Spook kind of stuck from the experience that day

Rodeo- our family has barrel horses so needless to say we like rodeos, her middle name is Rosie she has a rosie disposition

Bubba- he is just a good ol country boy hence the name

Artemis- a beagle also so named after the greek goddess of the hunt, also protector of young women

1/2 Pint a Great Pyr who is 120 pounds

My husband named Hunter. Don't ask me where he came up with that name. lol :) He says he wanted to name the pet this time.

I named Ella Ciella because I have a thing for names that mean something in another language. And Chihuahuas are always named names in Spanish, I wanted to be different. Ciella is Italian and means 'heaven'. I actually got it from some friends of the family. They are Italian, so I started asking them how to say different words in Italian and liked that one :)

My snake's name is Voldemort after the villian in Harry Potter. I love those books. I know I'm 23, don't make fun of me!

My turtle, Herbie...cuz, well, he looks like a Herbie :)

My cat, Legolas. Our family is a big Lord of the Rings fan. And he's quick and has pointy ears like Legolas. lol :)

Daisy, Lucy, Mikey, Toby, Zoe, I have also had a Billy, Molly, and Riley because I always picked names that ended in the "ey" sound. I got bored with that so I picked Tucker. I don't know why. I kind of wish I hadn't. He just doesn't fit in. The name suits him well though. He sleeps constantly and he's a different sort of dog with a strange personality so his name not sounding right and not fitting in with the rest kind of suits him.

Well i went over to my friends house. She had rescued a female dog from the shelter. She found out later that it was pregnant. So she keep her and the puppies were born. I had the intentions of only getting one puppy. I had already picked out Digger as mine but i had no idea what to name him. The day i went to get him only him and Elie were left. Nobody wanted her. So I fell in love with her and she came home to. Digger got his name because he would dig under everything. His blanket, the couch cushions, the food dish, and the water dish. Anything he could get his paws into he would dig at it. Elie got her name because i had just got done reading a book about a girl. The gir was really independent and didnt like help from anyone. Well that fit Elie to a t.

Max came with his name. I'm not sure why they named him that but it fits him. Toby was sooo tiny when I first saw him and I like the country singer Toby Keith. Toby Keith is such a huge burly guy that I thought it would be cute to call this little white fluffy dog "Toby". That or "Godzilla". Toby was more fitting.
