5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful & totally entertaining!, November 11, 2001

By	Joann Charlesworth "Ciairra Contessa" (NJ : the Armpit of the USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Best Pet Name Book Ever! (Paperback)

I'm a "dog" person & I put a lot of time & energy into naming my dogs! People who hear me talk about them assume they're actual children because I give them "human" names! None of this "Rover" or "Spot" stuff for me...I give my pets first & middle names! This book was extremely diverse & comprehensive in their name sources..to the common everyone-knows-a-Max-or-Sheba names to the really unique ones! Anyone looking at getting a dog should read this..it truly has a name for every dog personality one could possibly think of! A terrific read & one I'd recommend to anyone!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Lack of Originality, December 8, 2002

This review is from: The Best Pet Name Book Ever! (Paperback)

I don't think this book contained enough names. The names listed were taken from film and TV personalities, historical figures, cartoon characters, etc. This book lacked original names.
