This is "Garage", but we call him Gary for short! ....

He was given that name because he was dumped down the side of our garage when he was about 4 months old and we adopted him, he's ten years old now.

We had a brown & gold Border Collie with crazy yellow eyes called “Gently”, named after the books written by Alan Hunter, this was way before the TV Series. Then an absolutely regal Basenji (South African barkless dog), my Daughter called him “Sebastian” or Sebbie for short, they're both probably playing with your "Tyson" nicnacs and having a great time.

My ringneck is called Gilbert. I took him to the vet yesterday and the head nurse asked me his name, I said Gilbert and head nurse replied

"hmm Gilbert, of course it is."

Gilbert isnt unusual for a bird is it? He named himself on the way home from the breeder. My friend was holding him, OH said Gilbert, friend repeated it Gilbert looked right up at him. Had no choice really 😄

I once cared for an injured lorikeet which couldn't fly straight. I called it F-111.

Changed its name when it used to spray its seeds all over the place for fun.

Changed its name to the biblical Onen....casting its seed upon the ground.

Mate had a dog named -Humper.

Would stay in the background til a visitor bounced a tennis ball ---set up.

This was the signal for -Humper to appear and latch onto their leg.

Took 2 big blokes to prise him off lol......................Richo.

Don't be too concerned Richo. It is a domination thing.

My neutered female maltese tries it on with my male neutered maltese who is the dominant one.

He reaction is ho hum.
