Doesn’t look like James Brown or Jackie Robinson, though.

RIP

BTW, the Chadwick Boseman movie by the same name after the same historical figure is worth seeing. Also stars the snowman from Frozen.

I dunno, I think "Thurgood" would be a better name for lhasa apso.

lol just heard a guy from the waiting room calling his dog Gus in a warning voice and then when he finally used his full name it was "Asparagus"

My dog is Gus as well. This is amazing.

That’s such a fuss to pronounce

Nah. Joanie & Petey. You never call a pet by their full name unless it ends in an ee-sounding vowel (some exceptions for other vowels apply).

My two cats were Joan Jett and P.I.T.A. Frampton. Rest in power, Petey.

our dog was named cash when we got him and he already responded to it so we stuck with it, but of course lots of spinoffs now including sometimes "cashew"

this is the funniest place on earth. there is always chaos happening. one time the receptionist was in the process of feeding orphaned possums and she said "do you want to see them??" (i did)
