Puppysaurus Rex, Dobby Elf, ‘the dog’, ‘the hound’, Monster, CollieDog, Barky McBarkface.
He doesn’t answer to any of these, or to his actual name. I think he is waiting til I get it right and call him whatever name his mum gave him.

We called the JRTs collectively 'The Gits'. I am sure all JRT owners will empathise. They had beautiful manners and excellent recall when on a walk, we took them to woods and the beach, allover the place, in the car and on foot with no problem whatsoever (once Sadie had grown out of being car-sick) but they spent every moment at home getting into some sort of trouble.
I used to have a tiny dark tortoiseshell cat called Posy, who soon became Posy-pom because she looked like 2 pompoms with legs and a stubby tail. She was the most feisty cat I've ever known.

Dhahabu (means 'golden' in Swahili is usually referred to as Bums. Some transmogrification. I think it came about because we called him 'Habus' for short and the non-African members of the family thought we'd called him Bumbles.
Jinny is known as Pinball. Because she was Jinny Pins and she pings around.
My daughter is called Doods. A diminution of Tabitha, you know.

Cecil is mostly Cecelia or Pig dog, this is because he reminded us of a piglet when he was little and my non doggy mum once commented he reminded her of that film, what was it…. Babe! ??
He’s Cecelia to me.
Basil is Bees.
Spud is just that really although when he’s very good or smug he’s Spudlington Fairbanks ?

Clover is Clove(s), Clovy, Aussie Girl, Pig (only my brothers call her that, unfortunately she responds).
Shadow is Shad, Shadowkins, Shaddy Boy, Pup pup, Puppykins (tried to give that nickname to Clover when she was a puppy and he was outraged), and when he is in desperate need of a haircut he is Scruffy, Scruff or Scruffykins.
I never nicknamed Willow but I frequently added dear or darling after her name.

Our springer Jess was Jooper, don't know why but she responded to it. Our new pup Daisy is called Crazy Daisy as she is a sprocker and lives up to the name completely, she is quite nuts.
