Good dog pics today. Made me happy just to see those happy dogs.

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

When I saw those pictures, I said: It's like dogs invented football.

Thank goodness you mean dogs! I was afraid these were the new top 5 names for children in the US.

Speaking of Dog Football, in the eastern end zone cheap seats in Cleveland the pit bull like fans are called Dogs.

They are nervously awaiting a new leader of the pack to bark for/at.

But the team management fearing the dogs has erected an electric fence and issued Manziel a shock collar for being too good at football.

Quaestor म्हणाले...

People name their dogs. Dogs do not name themselves, at least I don't believe they name themselves.

I wonder what psychological insights can be had from the names people choose for their dogs, and other pets. Has someone earned a doctorate doing research on that subject?

I found this, but the article lacks insight.

Iris and Zeus are names of classical gods -- classical names are well and good. But I've yet to meet a dog called Argus outside of Homer. Cooper is a really odd choice, IMAO. Cooper as in who?
