We “might” be getting a dog in the next week or so, I say might because we still need to jump the hoop that is a home check and a few other final items need ironing out, but we need to come up with a name for said pup
He is a Pointer X
He is currently called “Auston” but we feel the need to find something more appropriate and mtb related.
The OH is very keen on Keith (as in Bontrager), but I just can’t see myself shouting that in a field. So I open the debate to the STW brain for suggestions
I did have a tortoise called Hedgehog, so I see where you’re going with that
That’s actually really cool. I have a dog called bear. The hedgehog that lives in the garden is called prick. Kinda veered from my own naming protocol there.
There was a bloke lived near me who called his dog ‘Taxi’.
He said there was nothing more embarrassing than standing at the top of the Downs’ shouting “TAXI” at the top of his voice and people looking at him thinking ‘He’s never going to get a cab stood there”.
MY dog was coincidentally already called Hope when we got her.
Mountain bikey, but in a subtle way. Also a pointer (not like that mongrel in the op’s pic 😉 )
(Other MTB brands are available)
a climbing buddy called his dog Slack. I’m not sure if he was more amused at the site of confused belayers when he called the dog or confused dog surrounded by people shouting his name.
I have one called Sam, and the other called Megatron 🙂
What ever you call it, bear in mind at somepoint you *will* be wandering around a field yelling it. When its wildly out of control and should be on a lead 😉
Am liking the idea of Bomber or Chipps (from the number of times he’s saved me from myself on threads) or maybe Picolax? Or does that out me as a very sad STW’er?
