Drink Inspired Dog Names

Introduction

When we think of raising our glasses and toasting to the best things in this life, we may often picture our furry friends. Our dogs give us so much delight and deep joy. We love them like family, and it’s certainly always happy hour when we are with them. Many afternoons, we drag in after work and need a sip of comfort. We like to kick up our feet and relax. Sometimes, our pets are just the tonic. They give us puppy kisses, curl up beside us, and make us feel like kings and queens. Cheers for our canine companions!

Featured Famous Dog with a Drink Inspired Name

Fido

Though many of the names you’ll find below are actually cocktail ones, we can’t forget another one of our favorite drinks on tap! Fido’s is, indeed, the new (and first in the world) dog taphouse in Tigard, Oregon. We at Wag! give this establishment two thumbs up, all the high-fives we’ve got, five stars, and an eleven out of ten. We absolutely love the idea. And at the center of Fido’s is the image of not a singular famous dog but many adorable ones. The mission of Fido’s Taproom is to showcase shelter dogs. It’s true: it’s a beer hall and an adoption center. You heard it here first!

Fido is famous because it’s a classic dog name. When we hear “Fido,” we immediately picture a wagging tail. The name now represents many cute, often shaggy faces lining bar walls (yes, even the restrooms walls). Everywhere you turn, you’ll find the loveable wet noses, happy eyes, and floppy ears! On the televisions, you may sip your beer or wine and watch puppy videos instead of news and baseball. What could be better than puppy videos? Owner Scott Porter, we wish you success beyond your wildest dreams for what you’re doing.

Fido is a name that will soon be synonymous with “salvation” and “home” if it isn’t already. Fido symbolizes many dogs, such as Doxie Andy and Shepherd-Dachshund mix Betty; both recently were adopted from Fido’s. The name goes beyond a singular canine. It stands for hope for many rescues. One of the best parts of the taproom is that across from its patio, your potential rescues play together. Fido’s keeps shelter dogs in-house until they are adopted. And twenty-five percent of proceeds go to animal charities around town.

Though Fido’s just opened in February 2018, several pups have already landed a home. But you can't have a few beers and walk out with a dog, mind you. It requires more steps, but Fido’s works to plant the seed and see that very adoption process through. The name Fido has become a force in its community and has more than likely posed an outstanding idea to people around the globe. What a noble endeavor! You’ll surely be hearing more and more about the name “Fido” in the future. They’re soon to be everyone’s feature for sure!

We couldn’t resist. Fido’s is the meshing of two wonderful worlds: drinks and dogs! With this featured famous doggy taproom, we feel we’ve featured many gorgeous furry creatures that need homes and that someday will leave indelible marks in many humans’ lives. Fido is a name that will be treasured and remembered for years to come.
