Kim, I don’t know why, but almost every dog in our family has been given multiple nicknames…

Yes! Lucy was given the name lucifer when she was a puppy and most certainly the devil! She destroyed more things than I can list. But my love for this dog is never ending even though she pisses me off more than once a day, usually on our walks.

As a former cat owner, I did not have multiple names for my kitties. I think it maybe because of their attitude and aloofness. They were either kitty, cat, or their given name. Does that count as multiple? I never call Lucy just Dog. Things that make you go hmm.
