In the neighborhood I grew up in a kid had an enormous rottweiler named Dog (pronounced dee-oh-jee). We did not make fun of his pet's name. Yeah as I said I understand the in-universe reason for the name. Doesn't mean it's not bad though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raisin' Bran Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 13 hours ago, Snowmelter said: Fair enough. Although D-O-G never had problems making his likes and dislikes known. He hated one kid I went to grade school with. The rest of us could pet the dog but he growled and snapped at this kid. He ended up going to jail for stabbing someone in high school. I hadn't thought about it in years until I read the part before the RW when Cat urges Robb to send one of his men away because his direwolf didn't like the man's smell. I wonder if that is really a thing. Were you referring to Rolph Spicer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
