Reading a thread earlier where people mentioned their pets nicknames got me wondering how many people have nicknames for their pets and what they are.

Mine are:
Salem – Mr meowikins, douche bag (when he’s misbehaving), chubs/tubs (cos he was a little podgy), DD sometimes calls him snailem (I have no idea why) and big fella (only I call him this usually when I pick him up for a head butting when I get home from work)
Gizmo – Gizymodo, Gremlin (when he’s misbehaving), little tearaway (because he’s always running around usually up to no good), little s*d (when he's head butting me in the middle of the night to move over), little fella (again only I call him this usually when I pick him up for a head butting after Salem)

I’ve nicknamed my Nanna’s dogs too:
Diva – Digga Diva (she dug half my parents garden up when they looked after her for a couple of weeks)
Sacha – Sacha bombsha (just because it rhymes)

    Ex-mutt (no longer with us) - generally nothing repeatable on a public forum.
    The politer ones included widdlearse, sh!t4brains, TBD (that bloody dog). And on the very rare occasions I was actually talking to her, pudding or beautiful. God knows why because she was neither.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    My first dog Ailsa who was killed 6 years ago was called my bestest child in the whole wide world and that's exactly what she was.
    Arran who is now 6 is Mr. Nice but dim
    Abby who died 20 months ago was the fat wee oik.
    Ellie who is 4 is Ellie with the saggy belly ( Ellie belly for short ) due to her having churned out pups in a puppy factory.

    My b itch is called Pup, puppa dawg (because she acts like a puppy), Rooby dooby doo or Oompaloompa (because she is ginger and short). My male dog is called baggy mate, baggy baggster, Sir Bagster of Baggington Hall (as a Sharpei / bassett cross he has lots of loose skin). The cat is Blows (pronounced blouse) E Cat and Pudge (because she is thin!).
