Collective Noun For Your Breed?

Recommended Posts

The collective noun I've used for years for my guys is a 'waggle of westies' :thumbsup: We have been known to have up to 17 of them at our westie gatherings.

Much more interesting than the traditional 'clan' :)

I was thinking a Slurp of Labs, but a Guzzle is very good!

A Stare of Kelpies is good too, or maybe a Concentration or a Focus.

A Gratitude of Rescues.

A Snap of SWFs (I've got one, he's cute but the only dog that's drawn blood from me)

A snort of Pugs :mad

No, sorry. You are thinking of Bulldogs, perhaps?

It is a huggle of Pugs.

(most times this is a pug pile on your lap, or as much of it as will fit, if no lap is availble then all 6 pugs will huggle into a single one of the nearby 8 beds.)

A Prance of Pinschers.

A Harem of Salukis. (must include eunuchs I suppose)

And, of course, as all showies know, a Horde of Chihuahuas. :mad

A "Snuggle" of Chinese crested dogs.

My new crestie always wants to snuggle in my jacket at night, under blankets on the couch and on my lap at day, even if it's 35 degrees!

A "snuggle" suits cresties down to a T!

A hurricane of huskies :laugh:

Hurricane works well, they don't tend to do things slowly, do they? :eek: With Akira it's like a storm has come through the house at times with the speed she races in and out.

Maybe even a blizzard of Huskies, because that fur is like being in a blizzard!
