When I was a kid our neighbors adopted a German Shepherd/Basset hound mix, it looked like a full size Shepherd with short legs. I used to tell them their dog was a lowrider.
His name: Robert.
WHO THE FOCK NAMES THEIR DOG A REAL HUMAN NAME?!?!?
Robert.
Here, Robert, ol' boy. C'mon Robert!
Like the dog is a lawyer or therapist or some chit.
also,
My cousin has a whippet named Devo. I think thats pretty damn cool. [Reply]
We have outside cats that we end up adopting because people abandon them near our property. If I have a cat I get them fixed no matter what.
One of my favorites was a kitten that we named Van Gogh. It only had one ear. Vet said she was born that way, no ear canal or anything. Great Cat, I miss her. She died last winter and I replaced her with Princess Meowgi [Reply]
We have two male Yorkies named Max and Bentley. We call Max “Maxhole” because he is a fucking asshole and Bentley is affectionately known as Wilt because he tries to fuck every female dog he meets. [Reply]

Kunta the little ****er caaaat
nobody likes him because he's blaaack
My wife's sister found the name to be too offensive and vulgar, so when they'd come over they took liberty to rename my cat "Amigo".
Fuck that. He'll always be Kunta the ****er cat in my memory.
I eventually got a dog and named him D-Bowe, at which point Kunta left us for the gay neighbors next door.
My sister had to put her dog down and got a new little ankle biter replacement. I was there when she named it Toby. Every time she refers to it I yell, "HIS NAME IS KUNTA KINTE!" I wouldn't use the n word though. [Reply]

The dog is a girl so I suggested we call it T-LO (like Jennifer Lopez' J-LO) to make it more girly, but it was still a no go. :-)
They just decided to ignore the agreement and named it Sophie. :-)

*** Really it was for the starcraft player, TLO... short for The Little One for the majority who don't know what I'm talking about [Reply]
