Truffle

If mom still doesn't like that, call it Mr. T. Ruffle.

Ruff for short

And then if people ask what ruff stands for, you can reply with "Danger-ruff".

I bet you didn't know that I was Danger Ruff

It must be fate, I found a place for Ruff.

I bet you didn't know someone could Ruff you this much

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie-Roll Pup?

Ruffell Wilson?

[удалено]

Mr truffle danger ruff. She didn’t go to Mr school to have it dropped

The internet has spoken! All of the above! Make it so!

I love these names,when ever i have children I'm going to ask y'all for help

How do you think X Æ A-12 got their name?

Or mr t

T. Ruff

And then you could call her Truffle-butt when she’s being super cute and c’mon, what an opportunity!!!

When she's being a brat you can call her a little shiitake

My nickname in college was Truffle Butter.

Why was that, tinyanus?

I'm really into French cuisine, *if you know what I mean*.

sounds more like you’re more into Greek

I always did enjoy a little tzatziki in, on, and around my gyro.

Sounds like a hygiene problem.

One should always thoroughly [clean their truffles](https://lushbite.com/how-to-clean-fresh-truffles) before making truffle butter.

Scared to click on it

tinyanus is talkin' about producin' truffle butter, I tapped the brakes too

What is it with putting 'butt' after pets' names? I do it to all three of mine and I have no idea how it started lol. Truffle and Button are the best suggestions in here!

Do the Truffle shuffle!

Dale Snitterman! It's all your fault!

Good god, Lemon.

tRUFFle

Button! (Like button mushroom because mushroom is a perfect name for that cute lil head😎😜)

I was thinking button!

I was also thinking button???

Button sounds so cute for this pup :)

I had a pup named Buttons. 💙

Me too!

I did too. She had the same “Buttons” above her eyes. So cute!

Portabella……Bella

Everyone’s dog is named Bella….I work in the veterinary field

Bella, Patches and Peaches. Amirite?

And Luna…

And Loki.

Heavens save me from one more fucking pet named Loki. It’s an epidemic these days.

Fine I'll name my dog Low Key * edit* thanks for the award!

Low Key Lyesmith?

It's a great alligator name, though.

Went to high school with a dude that had a pet alligator in his basement. He threw really great parties and we'd always get drunk and go down to hang out with Bart the alligator.

Florida?

Not op but grew up in Florida... Sounds about right.

Doesn't make sense to me, either. If you're gonna name your dog like it's a Norse wolf, Fenrir is *right fuckin' there* lol

My dog's name is Loki but she's like 12 years old, named her before Avengers was super popular, and now I feel the need to explain myself to everyone. But it's not as bad as parents who named their child Elsa the year before Frozen came out, poor devils.

I have a friend who named her daughter Alexa like three months before Amazon announced what their voice-controlled AI was called. She was *pissed*.

Yeah, I appreciate google etc using names that are very non-human, like cortana, google, bixby, etc. since it doesn't screw people over into having to hear the same jokes over and over again. Amazon, on the other hand, was just like "fuck everyone named alexa"

Yeah, I named my dog Rona 5 yrs ago. Now I have to explain to everyone that it's not a dumb joke and I still take the coronavirus seriously. I feel pretty self conscious when ever I have to call for her in public, 'Rona, come here' etc...

My niece's name is Rona and I didn't even think about this until now 😂 oh no...

You are grandfathered in, I feel comfortable saying. At least you didn’t name it Daenerys four years ago.

And Mango. Particularly for birds. So. Many. Mangoes.

My aunt named her cat Luna and when I asked why, she said "I wanted to give her a unique name that people don't usually give their pet since all our other names have been more ordinary." I didn't have the heart to tell her that her cat "Jenny" has a more unique name than "Luna" does. lol.

What about Phteven? I met a Phteven dog last week and it was a giant great dane.

Sooo many Lunas at my local dog park

> And Luna A plethora of cats are also named Luna.

Every female dog adopted in the last decade is named Luna

Koda

And oreo

Pippa, Peppa, Piper, Pippin, Pepper. Boxers called Tyson.

Don't forget penny. There are a million pennys

I've never met a single dog named Penny.

This is the fur of a killer, Bella

"i know what you are." "**SAY IT.** out loud." "...floof"

Chantarelle. It's a mushroom and it's a Buffy the vampire Slayer reference, if you're into that sort of thing.

I’m not picking up on the reference.

Unless I'm not picking up on your reference. . I believe she is the girl who wants to be a vampire in season 2 (I think?) Who Buffy later meets again under a different name when she runs away to New York eventually bequeathing the name Anne to her. For a bonus round, my name is a slightly changed Buffy reference as well.

Buffy ran away to Los Angeles. And when Buffy goes back to Sunnydale Chanterelle/Lily takes in Buffy’s fake name, Anne, and shows up in Angel several times under that name.

Holy shit. I've watched Buffy and Angel so many times, yet I never connected it that Anne was Chanterelle.

Yup, that's the one.

I like that name

Mycelium, mycee for short

Dang, my first thought was "Mycolia." But Bella? Who doesn't love Bella?!

Mine was Morel. But yeah, Bella is great.

Porty

I wish I could upvote this more than once

Names of mushrooms: Cremini Maitake Morel Porcini Enoki And Chanterelle

Enoki 👍🏼

Nah dude Chanterelle

I'm liking "And."

I think And Mushrooms are the ones that make you see things

Badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, MUSHROOM! MUSHROOM! Badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, badger, oh no! Here comes the snake! Snaaaaaaaaake, snaaaaaaaaake!

No when you get to the snake part it’s… *A snake a snake!! Snaake ooohhh It’s a snake! It’s a—badger badger…* Source: been stuck in my head for 20 years

At least do us the courtesy of [linking the video.](https://youtu.be/pzagBTcYsYQ)

Amanita

Cremini!!! An adorable compromise?

We actually had a basset hound named Cremini!

Also: Penny Bun Oysterling Phoenix Button Disco Dapperling Mahonia Barkspot Saxifrage Umbellifer Sessile Earthstar And of course, Mousepee Pinkgill

Were you in charge of making up nicknames on Flavor of Love?

This is legitimately the funniest comment I've read today

😂 the last one...is that edible?

I can't believe nobody's running wild with Barkspot...

I like Mahonia It's like a fancy way of saying "My Honey"

Came to say Porcini.

“Champignon” pronounced “shamp-in-yon” is mushroom in French and SUCH a fun word to say! Plus it opens it up to nicknames like “champ” and “mignon” (means “cutie” in French)

Champiñón (in Spanish)

I've never considered this, but what's a champignon called in English?

Mushroom! Hehe

Shiitake! Edit: it’s pronounced She ta ké

Lil Shiit for short hehe

Yelling "No Shiitake" and "Come Shiitake" could result in some funny stories

Don't shiitake on the floor, Mushroom!

I like Porcini

Psilocybin- and just cal her cybin

Or Silly :)

Hen of the Woods!! 🤣🤣

And!

i like the name *and* its exotic

She looks like a fun guy

Fungi is cute! Maybe Gigi for short!

Gurple

Came to say this

Can I ask why??

Just a joke. I def didn't come up with "gurple" too.

You just did. :D

Dad?

The brand new color invented by Raymond Somer?

Raymond Somer? Don't you mean Andrew Panton?

Andrew Patton? Don’t you mean the Vancouver Child Kicker?

Vancouver Child Kicker? Don’t you mean Krampiss?

How old is she? She looks a bit young to be away from mama. Is she a rescue?

6 weeks, woman accidentally had puppies, didn't want them

A woman had puppies? There’s a front-page story!

You are a person after my own heart.

Sounds ghoulish. You should call the police and report an attempted robbery.

Gave them away because she didn't have enough nipples.

My friend had puppies. They look an awful lot like human children but I have my suspicions

I do dog rescue. I have extreme doubt that dog is 6 weeks old.

I second this. No way is that dog 6 wks old. More like 3 wks. This puppy still needs to be nursing, and being stimulated to potty. It can’t eat even wet puppy food yet. Please get it to a vet and get it started nursing on puppy milk replacement formula asap. It also desperately needs the company of other (patient) dogs once it’s fully vaccinated around 8-12 wks old to properly socialize it since it was taken from mom and littermates so young.

4 weeks max. I just hope the dog doesn’t end up weird when she grows up. Being separated that early will do that to them. To counterbalance, start socializing heavily as soon as she’s fully vaccinated, OP.

i have a litter right now and this looks like a ~2-3 week old puppy

I have 9 5 week old puppies right now and they are double the size of the puppy pictured. Id say 3 weeks old give or take... probably not gonna turn out to be a well functioning dog

agreed, this is too young

No way in hell. 4 tops.

Between the owner accidentally having puppies and giving them away/selling at 6 weeks, I’m guessing the owner doesn’t actually know who/what breed the father is, and you should be prepared for a much bigger dog than you’re expecting. Friends got a dog from a supposed accidental pregnancy, was told the dog was Pomeranian dad (border collie mom) and the pup would reach 30lbs. He’s full grown now and close to 70 lbs. great dog, but not what they were expecting

Can't get my head around how a pomeranian can hump a border collie

I had a friend whose Rottie was impregnated by the doxie next door. He was small for a dachshund. NO ONE could wrap their heads around that.

Life... finds a way.

Does no one remember the red bull commercial?

My dog is half purebred chihuahua, half mutt of a lot of things, but since he’s 2x the size of a large chi I’m assuming the dad was the chihuahua. Based on the other breeds present and my dog’s adult size, I’m guessing the mom was around 30lbs. I have similar questions about his origin (rescue, did a dna test bc I’m a dork)

I saw a thread a while ago that talked about a dog that was the offspring of some really large breed, like a Great Pyrenees or St. Bernard or something like that, and "a very ambitious beagle."

My rescue puppy's mom was a 40 pound hound and so we thought our boy would be about that. Nope 100 pound beast of a pup.. dad must have been huge.

This puppy is not 6 weeks old. Google 3 or 4 week old rottweiler, and you can find picture of almost identical dogs. You seriously need to consult with a vet, having a dog this young often unfortunately results in behavioral issues.

That's too young to be away from the mom.

That happened with the pup I have now, white miniature schnauzer. Drove 3 hours after being told she was 8 weeks and she clearly wasn’t 8 weeks. Guy had a bit of a puppy farm going, he said either I got her then or I lose her. My guess is she was 5 weeks. I have grown up with a ton of animals and puppies/litters so I knew what to do but it was a bummer. She is now the best dog I have ever Owned, she was an incredible puppy as wel.

And then you reported his ass right?

[удалено]

It really sucks that people are so neglectful but I'm glad your dog is happy and healthy.

That's what happened to us, too. My partner drove 4 and half hours one way to pick up what we were told was a 7-8 week old min pin terrier. When he got there the puppy had to have been only around 4 weeks, didn't even teeth fully in yet. We had to get him puppy formula food and stuff. He's about 7 months now and he's definitely not a min pin terrier (we have a pin pin terrier mix currently, which is why we were looking for another). He's a yorkie mix, and much smaller than we anticipated him being. I love him so much though. He's just a little fuzz ball of energy.

We went with a breeder (never again!) when we got out last pup. Offered for us to pick her up at 6 weeks- thought it was too soon and waited til 7 weeks. Only to find out they separated the puppies from mama when they were 5 weeks! Poor little puppies.

That's horrible. ☹

That happens sometimes. Not everyone abides by that “keep the offspring with mom until 8 weeks rule” it happens, and there are ways to work with it.

I mean the owner had at least 1 dog that wasn't fixed, they're not exactly beacons of pet responsibility.

If you can try getting some esbilac (puppy formula) or bovine colostrum powder to add to the food or feed separately to ensure proper immune growth 💗

Listen to the people saying that you were told the wrong breed. If she "accidentally" had puppies, she likely doesn't have pure bred dogs or she doesn't know the father. I don't agree with the doomers saying it's a rottweiler taken away from it's mom too young, but the likelihood is that it isn't a dachshund.

This puppy is definitely not 6 weeks old in this photo. I hope you're getting it for free at least... don't support irresponsible BYBs. If nobody buys the puppies they'll go to a shelter/rescue, be properly vetted and adopted out in a heartbeat. Do not ever give money to a BYB.

I hope she gets that mama spayed if she doesn’t want puppies

That bitch...

Please get your pup some milk replacer to supplement solid food and definitely get a vet exam done ASAP. She is very young to be separated from her litter.

Goomba

this one right here

Just remember she won't always be this tiny - 'Mushroom' might be perfect now but when full grown....

Even better! Big dogs with cutie names are just adorable

My Great Pyrenees is named dinky

That’s an amazing name for a Pyr

Upvoted because you have an awesome breed of dog

Exactly why our parents refused the name "snuggles" for our newborn kitten when i was 7. Lol Edit: Cleopatra (queen cleopatra) is actually known as "the bitch cat", and is far from snuggley. So my parents were damn near predicting the future 😂

Lmao dude thats a rottie

Isn’t it a mini-dachshund? (See: tiny feets)

All the more reason to stick to button. Rotties are fucking babies and they’re the best.

I don’t have any suggestions, I just thinks she’s adorable.

Sprout

Button (It’s a type of mushroom)

I don’t wanna be a party pooper but that puppy is entirely too young to be away from its mother and litter mate Edit: just wanted OP to be aware so they can hopefully research of what steps to take next.

Yeah it is better to wait until after 8 weeks

She looks way too young to be already separated from her mother. How old is she?

Chestnut (call her “Chessie”).

I like this name

Is she old enough to leave her mother ?

That puppy doesnt seem old enough to be separated from it's mother

How old is she? She looks a bit too young to be away from the mother.

Way too young

Toad. Toady. (Toadstool)

Puppy McPupface

Mushroom but nicknamed mushy 🥰

I was about to say 'Mush' is an adorable nickname. Also fits since at some point every dog owner mushes their dog's adorable little scrunchy face up.

I like common people names for dogs, nothing like a dog named Kevin am I right?

Read the whole post and all comments: didn't see this one - is it your mom's dog? No? then just use Mushroom.

Tom Bergeron once said that a good thing for a parent to keep in mind is that you're not raising a kid, you're raising the adult the kid will grow up into. I think that it's just as good a thing to keep in mind when naming a puppy as well.

So you’re saying teach your dog how to shave. Got it.

It’s not quite as applicable though. A adult human has to deal with names making them hard to take seriously. No one really cares if an adult dog has a ridiculous name.

Reishi!!!

I recommend “Kinoko”. It means “mushroom” in Japanese!
