Yes I think we must have.. We probably got the whiteboard out and had a phone-conference with the cousins and all... or one of us kids who were about 2-3 probably just started calling it that and it stuck..... not sure which is the more likely scenario.

I'm glad you didn't get offended. I can't be bothered to put smilley faces all the time. Kids often name dogs and parents have to play along, so Brown Dog was a good name as any.

I've had two dogs stolen, so I'm a little sad about it and I don't want one now.

I like the name REX.

Polonius3:
For anyone interested, here is a by no means complete selection of names Poles often give their dogs:

BrutalButcher:
Why not a Polish form of "spike"


kolec??? ;D

mzh140:
I'd like to find a name for a female dog that means 'little stranger' or 'nameless' or 'little stray' or 'no-name' or something like that. Somebody told me Basha, but then I also heard that isn't Polish. Can anyone help?


Przybłęda. but its not nice name...

My Grandma had a German Shepherd named 'Aza' or 'Azza' or 'Azor' or 'Uzza'. Can someone tell me what this name means? The dog was bitch, and I have a German Shepherd and I called her this name. Also is the name 'Foonyick' rude or crazy or something funny? My Polish uncle had a dog named this, and it was the most horrid crazy thing I have ever seen.
