My current and first dog is named Ralph, he is an apricot miniature cockapoo aged 4. The story behind picking the name is really quite simple, one night when I was 10 years old I was watching horrid Henry, as you do🤣, then as the character “rude Ralph” appeared on the screen i went rushing down to tell my parents how great of a dog name Ralph would be. And now at 14 I have no regrets and still to this day adore the name Ralph just due to the fact it’s short and snappy but also has personality behind it.

My previous dog was named Ralph, he was a Pomeranian. He acquired his name on the night we got him. My girlfriend and I witnessed him being abused by his owners on multiple occasions so one night we jumped their fence and saved him. While we were running my girlfriend said " I think I'm gonna Ralph" my reply was " who's Ralph"? RAlph live 11 more wonderful spoiled years and passed away at 16 (Ohio, United States)
