Also Trouble-Bug and Snuggle-Bug Miss Priss The Loveliest Laika in all the Land Guska we call Gus (pronounced Goose) The Gus Caboose Guska Chinchilla (he is known for elaborate dust baths in the summer months!) As a side-note, we refer to his bed as the Tunguska Crater or the Fortress of Solitude. Triepak We really have the most fun with Triepak's name, and use any variation of Pak. (Pronounced Pock) When he first arrived, he was the Fat-Pak. Now he is the Slim-Pak Pak Ness Monster (My personal favorite) The Small Pak Virus (he will infect you with LOVE!) Pak a Doodle Snuggle-Pak Omnipresent Pak

Kuma - Super Pooper, Kumita, Ursinho (little bear in Portuguese), Officer (because he's always inspecting what Nyx is up to), El Gordito (it was his first nickname), pizellu, pupu, cookie Nyx - Nyxie poo, Nyxie Pixie, pretty kitty, Nyxie tricksie, pizella, pupa, cookie Both of them are called "asshole" every so often :-P

## phoenix · 2008-11-24T13:32:34.000Z
just to explain some of the nicknames Rui posted just here: Pizella is little pea and pupa is doll in Maltese. I change the a to u to make them masculine. I also still call Kuma 'teddy' and also loverboy when he comes for cuddles. Nyx also gets 'princess'. Apart from that I am known for coining silly multilingual gibberish to them every so often. However, they only respond to Nyx/ie and Kuma.

## Zinja · 2008-12-10T05:39:08.000Z
Here's a question: I read in many places that two syllables are ideal for dog names. Most people on this forum has three. Is there really a big difference in the reaction times of the dogs? I would love to name my future nihon ken a Japanese name to pay homage to their heritage, but I love the sound of several three syllable names (mostly from anime shows I used to love to watch). thanks. -Joe edit: forgot my pet's nicknames! Ninja: Toi-toi, Nin-Nin, Nin, Ninja Toiyon(that's how I used to say ninja turtles lol) Yokie: Little Dog, Jokie, Princess, Doggie Sushi: Senior Sushi De Los Ligres, Sushi Lai, The Sush, Tuti Kitty Kat: Meow Meow Marie, Sue Ann Johnson, Kitty, Itim.

## shelbysmom · 2008-12-11T22:04:15.000Z

Schweinkopf-German for pighead

Shenaynay

Nay

## LoveMyMylie · 2008-12-12T00:09:33.000Z
Monster - Which as far as Mylie is concerned is actually her name, she makes her "monster" noises when we play & Booger - because she fake sneezes when she smells something she doesn't like
