Top of the mornin' to ya, good buddies. This little ditty has been inspired by Shakespeare's famous words, "What's in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet." This may be the case of Shakespeare's rose, but the following would not be as funny if this little doggy were named any other name than what he is. It's a bit of the ribald humor that Shakespeare might have used with his raucous audience! Please forgive if you are in any way offended by this little ditty. It is for your entertainment that I submit this.
WHAT NOT TO NAME YOUR DOG
Everybody who has a dog calls him "Rover" or "Boy." I call mine Sex. Now Sex has been very embarrassing to me. When I went to City Hall to renew his dog license I told the clerk I would like a license for Sex. He said, "I'd like to have one too." Then I said, "But this is a dog." He said he didn't care what she looked like. Then I said, "You don't understand. I've had Sex since I was nine years old." He said I must have been quite a kid.
When I got married and went on my honeymoon, I took the dog with me. I told the motel clerk that I wanted a room for my wife and me, and a special room for Sex. He said that every room in the place was for sex. I said, "You don't understand. Sex keeps me awake at night." The clerk said, "Me too."
One day I entered Sex in a contest. But before the competition began the dog ran away. Another contestant asked me why I was just standing there looking around. I told him I had planned to have Sex in the contest. He told me I should have sold my own tickets. "But you don't understand," I said, "I hoped to have Sex on TV." He called me a showoff.
When my wife and I separated, we went to court to fight for custody of the dog. I said, "Your Honor, I had Sex before I was married." The judge said, "Me too." Then I told him that after I was married Sex left me. He said, "Me too."
Last night Sex ran off again. I spent hours looking around town for him. A cop came over to me and asked, "What are you doing in this alley at 4 o'clock in the morning?" I said I was looking for Sex. My case comes up Friday!

Hmmm! Made me laugh. Great post.
I thought that it was cute. I hope it didn't offend.
No it was very funny, I can see how important the right name is now
Remember--was it Johnny Cash's--A Boy Named Sue????
I like the name ! You just have to be careful calling the dog for chow time.
No tellin' what might show up !!
A bunch of sex deprived females!
Yes, I don't know what the guy had on his mind(or do I) when he named his dog.
LMTO! What a comedy of errors! (You owe me a box of Kleenex, Angie, bec. I laughed so hard I cried buckets!)
But the guy was asking for it with that name.
PS: That dog in the pic is darling---is he yours? Makes a person wanna reach out and pet him.
No, my dog is a blue heeler. I borrowed this little guy from Magic(Jackie). I thought that he looked like a dog named Sex! The Kleenex box is on its way! Be sure to check your mailbox.
Love it! I can hear it already...."where can Sex be hiding now!" lol
Well, all I can say is the guy sure had a tough time getting Sex under control.LOL
Oh my Angie you kill me ,
I was hoping that you would not be offended by this. I am happy to see that you enjoyed the humor in the situation!
Oh My!! What a great way to start my morning.. I'm ROFLMAO Here!!!
Thank you for Angie,I loved this story... :-)
Not too naughty for you???? I was a little worried about posting it; I didn't want to offend anyone!
Not at all...It was funny as you can tell by the comments..Still laughing here!!!
Hee hee... Very cute.
I wouldn't doubt it if some crazy person out there called their dog Sex. I knew a guy once who had a cat called Askim, and whenever people asked what he called his cat, they would always think he was joking when he said, Askim.
Well, I must say that he was the witty one!
