Our cat and dog are named after a porn star and a prime minister.
Lovelace and Churchill?
Close.
Stormie and Winston.
Classic bulldog name. He an English?
3/4 Yorkie, 1/4 Jack Russell
Family dog names from white folk: Ace, Buzz, Brutus/Buddy (mother changed his name), Thor, Monte, George (female), Sweetie (male), Joey, Luca Brasi, Lily, Millie, Oliver, Stan. My dog names from half white folk: Chewie (full name Chewbacca), Woody, and TimTim (甜甜, Cantonese for “sweetie”).
That video’s joke was stretched a bit and not very funny IMO.
How about nicknames/terms of endearment for your dog(s)? For my dog they’re Stinkpot, Wendy Whiner, but mostly Buddy.
Winston is Winnie, Goober, Gomer, Melvin, Mr. Boy, and Little Feller.
I always called mine ■■■■■■■■ (from the movie The Jerk – “Don’t call that dog lifesaver, call him ■■■■■■■■” ). My wife yelled at me to not call him names but he kind of was a little prick.
Now we have two after the first passed away so they’re known among my friends (not my wife) as ■■■■■■■■ the First (deceased), ■■■■■■■■ II, and Ms. ■■■■■■■■■
OK, so that’s their formal terms of endearment, the casual ones are usually “goober”, “bubba”, “weenie”, and “butthole” (the last one when they’re not listening).
I thought this dog related article was pretty heartwarming. Dogs want to work, and this is as good a work as they can do.

Very heartwarming, btw I’m not crying, you’re crying. Love how dogs are so attuned to humans.
We’ve wondered over the years if any of our dogs could be therapy dogs. In reality, I think one of ours could do well, our youngest dog. He’s so friendly and loves being with people. He’s never met a stranger. Whereas our other dogs were either too nervous (2 of them) or too aloof (our 1st). Our biggest issue with the youngest is that he may be too friendly that he gets excited to meet new people. He gets a little rambunctious.
Saturday is National Adopt a Shelter Pet Day. Spread the word……
I laughed very hard at this. Works from either political angle.
Im a fan. Not my most favorite breed but I’ve had a Frenchie and they’re a really fun breed.
French Bulldogs are great but they turn tail and run whenever a German Shepherd shows up.
