I was remembering my first dog, he was called Coto, unfortunately he has passed away many years ago. So how was your first dog called? was it for a special reason?

my first dog is so cute and he is 6yrs old.we call him tiger because i also like tigers and have visited almost every national park in india to see them.secondly it was to spread awareness that there are not many tigers available in india and their population is decreasing so a day will come when we have to call dogs as tigers (LOL).thirdly tiger is our national animal.

The first dog in my life was Tzumpi. He wasn't my dog, he was my grandparents' dog, and when I met him he already had that name. My first own dog was Nera. First I called her Nora (wich means daughter-in-law in Romanian), but I saw a TV commercial that said something about a black ('nera' in Italian) reed, and I liked how it sounded. So, after a week, Nora had got a new name - Nera. She was quite black when she was a little puppy. When she grew up she became a blond airedale.

My first dog was this wonderful wonderful labrador retriever. We named him Misha after this Russian figure skater. We're not Russian but the name stuck. I suited him well. I miss him sometimes, but I've got some great photos of him I can look at and they make me smile.
