without written per mission from the publisher permit 1247 pet names run in cycles ive always thought a dog lover was a dog that was in love with another dog james thurber ah thurber thou shouldst be liv ing at this hour the 1990s are curb to curb and chock a block with dog lovers all of them twolegged why just this week ive seen a bouvier with a red bow on its head a poodle with i swear pink fur and a lowslung mutt of indeterminate origins wear ing plastic booties on its paws we have strange ways of showing our love we dog lovers for one thing we name our canines nomadic indians used to keep dogs but they didnt waste their breath naming them same with the inuit you think all those ravening teams of barely domesticated huskies answered to sobriquets like rover spot and lassie i personally am responsible for giving the world pooches called willie sniper duchess toke it was the 60s angus beulah and my current resident canine free loader and layabout rums i thought a background like that might give me special insight into the dog name game until i heard about bairbreomalley msomal- ley is a veterinarian who practices in london england and has done so for the past 15 years not only does she see a lot of pets that go by a lot of different names she claims that she can see developing trends in those names in the 80s says omalley the ultimate fashion accessory was the yuppie puppy she says back then her waiting room was full of cats named puma and reebok plus upscale dogs that answered to names like gucci dom perignon and ralph as in lau- renxshe says that 10 years ago her dog patients let her know who the top dogs were in hollywood as well in fact she thinks arnold schwarzenegger may be the most popular source of most macho dog names amie schwartz conan and terminator to name just a handful we saw lots of bull terrier puppies called rocky and rambobut now these dogs are middleaged running to fat anj hobbling in for arthritis tablets as for more sensitive breeds poodles whippets afghans and the like ms omalley says snooty names such as oberon heathcliffe and wellington are not nearly as popular as they were a decade ago in the gritty nineties youre more likely to meet a bottom scud or mutant high fashion has left its mark on feline nomenclature bairbre spends a fair bit of her working day giving shots to burmese and siamese sporting names like linda and cindy twiggy she says is fast becoming a classic for long lean kit ties that look like they could use a good meal oh and if you were wondering about pet names and the informa tion highway fret no more ms omalley says 90s dogs and cats are on fine virus apple and mac are very common these days i even ran into a ginger torn called wordpurrfect some pet owners are so computer savvy they can switch filenames if necessary when chippie a ger man shepherd pup remained a runt due to a hormone deficiency the owner blithely switched his name to microchip ms omalleys favorites well there was the threelegged cat found abandoned in a phone booth his foster parents christened him tripod and there was the tortoiseshell who was a champion mouser they called him cornflakes because he was a cere al killer then there was the spoiled pekingese who never left his own ers arms her name laptop of course
