    Dog names

    Hey guys.

    I've got a male puppy coming soon (Lab/Chesapeake Bay cross) and while I always wait to see what kind of dog I get before naming him, I'm building up a list.

    Anyway, I was curious as to what you all named your dogs and if there's a story behind the name?

    Winnie. For Winchester. My pops named her and he wouldn't let me call her anything else. I guess thats what happens when somebody gives you a dog.

    Re: Dog names

    We're on dogs # 4 & # 5. All of our dogs have been/are Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers and used for hunting too. I'm half cajun and with the Nova Scotia tie in, we've tried to use a southern names, with the exception of our second dog, who was named for a famous shotgun. The first name is the call name, the second the CKC Kennel name.

    Dog # 1 Cajun (Jems's Cajun Fox CDX)
    Dog # 2 Parker (Jems Parker Invincable)
    Dog # 3 Dixie (Westerlea's Whistlin Dixie)
    Dog # 4 Roux (Westerlea's Bon Temps Rouler)
    Dog # 5 Beau (Westerlea's Beau Renard)

    I have a friend who has had over half a dozen dogs, each one has had the same name, that of his wife.

    My dog is Shadow. He has 4 white feet and is mostly black (border collie) He went camping with us in the snow as a pup. My partner said he was worse than a shadow because when he went to take a leak he couldn't see that curious pup and peed on him. Yup. He's like your shadow.
