My Fischer-Fischy-Boo-Dog
I was reading The Pioneer Woman today, as I often do while I eat my lunch at work and she had written about all of the things she calls her basset hound, Charlie, other than Charlie. Sounds familiar, I thought.
I do this constantly with my dog, Fischer. Over the course of his 12 years, he’s been called, variously:
- Fishy
- Fish
- Brown Pants
- Boo
- Boo Dog
- Buddy
- Fischer-Boo
- Lovey
- Shadow
- Animal
- Spike
- Beast
- Beasty
- Bugga-Boo
- Boo-ba-loo
- Monkey
- Buggy
- Fischer-man
I think I’ve used half of those in the past week. Hmmm.
I wonder, sometimes, if I’m giving him an identity crisis.





Cholula very rarely gets called Cholula. And the things she IS called don’t resemble “Cholula” at all! I love crazy nicknames.
That’s so sweet! You’re so creative with your nicknames! My dog, Baffi, has a lot of nicknames too, but they all tend to be her name with different endings, except for “the leaning tower of Baffi” for when she falls asleep sitting up
