I've had so many pets in my life and one of the most exciting part of having a pet is thinking of what to name them. Sometimes I stick to the common names. Like I had a cat named "Blacky". I had a 2 German Shepherd named Augustine & Artemis all because we had to name them starting with a letter A for the canine registration. Later on they were called "Austin" and "Timi" My mom's pet dog is named Hochi Pochi originally because she thought the name sounded fluffy, then as time went by it became HochPoch, then PochPoch, Pochi, then finally became "Patsy". But before that my auntie actually called her Osang because she was meant to be the partner of our other male dog named Ozzy! I also have a 4-month old dog named "Kobibi". he was actually named "Cobra" at first because we have an energy drink here called Cobra. Then it became Kobe, then finally Kobibi. My rott is named Cindy, because that was already her name when my uncle gave her to us. Same as my other dog already named "Nicole". I believe they named her after the pussycat doll member. I also had a dog named Panda because his markings were like a Panda Also had a dog named Cotton, because he was white and fluffy. One of my smartest dogs was named Hercules, then later on became "Kulas" to shorten it. Then there was one named "Peatops", because as a kid I heard the word Tweetums as Peatops. :D

My little rat terrier is called Minnie, and thats because she is so small. I love calling her Minnie mouse because she is so tiny and cute. She is about the size of a chihuahua. She has been with me for 5 years since she was born and weaned. She is a prissy spoiled love muffin. She is like a little princess. She has her own blankey and her own toys and I am not sure that she knows she is a dog.lol
