Dog Names Ending in 'by' in Pop Culture
Debbie Parkhurst and her husband were walking along a road by their home in Calvert, Maryland when they heard a strange noise coming from a trashcan nearby. They thought it might be an animal and when they opened it and saw a beautiful Golden Retriever puppy, they fell in love immediately. They took him home, cleaned him up, and gave him some food and water. They placed a newspaper ad looking for his owner and even put up posters all over the neighborhood, but nobody came forward. So, the Parkhursts decided to name him Toby and keep him for themselves.
He checked out healthy at the veterinarian’s, and he was a happy and lovable pooch even though he had been thrown away like garbage by his previous owner. Debbie, a jewelry artist, spends every day with her new pup and they became best furiends right away. Toby seemed to know that she saved his life and he returned the favor a couple of years later when Debbie needed him. While at home alone one day, Debbie was eating lunch and a piece of her apple got stuck in her throat. She coughed, banged on her chest, and tried to free it with her fingers, but that apple would not come out.
Debbie had seen the Heimlich Maneuver being done by someone on themselves recently and decided to try it. She leaned over a chair and tried to dislodge the chunk of fruit, but it was no use. Toby saw Debbie frantically pounding on her chest and realized she was in trouble. He jumped on her chest and knocked her down and started jumping up and down on her chest, performing his own style of the Heimlich Maneuver. And it worked. The apple chunk came loose, and Debbie was able to breathe again. Toby stopped jumping and started licking her face.
A friend came and took Debbie to the hospital where a physician checked her out. The doctor saw the paw marks on her chest and could not believe it. He said that Toby literally saved her life. Debbie said she even had bruises on her chest from his paws, but she certainly didn’t mind them. In fact, she wore them with honor and even showed people while telling about this amazing story. Toby and Debbie became pretty famous for a while, and they were on several television shows such as The Late Show, Good Morning America, and the Today Show. Debbie enjoyed it but Toby doesn’t care where they go, as long as he has his best furiend with him.

When you get a new pup, there are a lot of things to do. You have to get a new dog bed, toys, a collar, dog food, treats, and you have to come up with the furfect name. All names are not equal, and you should take the time to figure out the best name suited to your new fur buddy. Whether it is based on their breed, coat color or texture, size, personality, or even strange habits they have, you should choose carefully so you get the right one. For example, Corby means raven or crow and is an awesome name for a black pooch and Ruby would be an amazing name for a red dog.
If you have a short breed like a Corgi or a Dachshund, Stubby would be a cute name and Tubby or Chubby are just perfect for that fluffy pup. Moby is an adorable name for a large dog while Cubby is furific for a tiny pooch. Also, if your new dog is one who whines a lot, you could call them Crybaby and Gabby would work out great for the canine who likes to talk. No matter what you choose, make sure you like it because you will be using it for a long time. We chose some to help you get started.
