There are times I call Blake everything BUT his name...As far as nick names he has quite a few and he responds to all of them...
Doodley
Puddlin
Mr. Noodle
Shaggo
Scooby Doodle
The Blakester
Blakenstein ( When he's naughty)
Blakey
Fuzzy Man
and of course.....BUDDY or BUD.....
Sometimes I hold his ears back and flatten the hair on his head with my hand and I call him The Golden Seal......
Calidoodle
bear (my dh calls her that a lot)
doodle or doodle bear
poodlehead (this especially after the trip to the groomer)
lumpy (as she spent a lot of time laying on the floor)
these are cute - glad I'm not the only one whose doodle has a thousand names! most often he's "momma's lil lamb chop" (don't ask where that came from, it just evolved). His name is Buddy, so he also gets BudMan alot. His favorite, though is Buddilicious. We had the radio on one day and Fergi's song "Fergilicious" came on, and I started singing to him as Buddilicious. He already thinks he's a movie star. So now whenever I sing that to him he does a little dance and throws his big fluffy head around. Too funny! When I quit singing, he'll nose me in the hip to get me to start up again.
More often than not, I end up calling Toby "Monkey". I have no idea why, I just do. I my husband calls him "Toad". Also names that go along with different times of the year, such as Toblerone around Christmas. Oc-TOB-er in the fall.....Toby-Tobe comes up a lot too. :)
Harper is affectionately known as "Bug", which is often a humorous explanation when people at the dog park ask us why we named our curly pup after a creepy, crawly creature!
Brody has plenty of names besides Brody. He has a collar from Harley Davidson that reads "Bad to the Bone" which inspired his nick-names Brody-Bones or Mr. Bones, as when I'd walk him, the word "BONE" was always in my eye line.
I also use "Doodle" as a sir name for Brody Doodle, Cheeze doodle, or Yankee doodle if I could get him to wear my NY cap.
He get's Bro for Brody or Dude (or is it Dood?)... I think for him it's dude.
When he steals socks or underwear it's "That god **** Dog!"
Snickers whole name is Snickerdoodle we also call him Snicks. We also use Mr Magoo really not sure why but it seems to work when he does something silly.
