Petmania Tralee can reveal that Tralee’s most popular doggy name is Bear.

 

The Irish owned pet-retailer has surveyed over 1,500 pet-parents in Ireland in September as part of its annual Puppy of the Year competition  The survey has unveiled that across Tralee, the top-five most popular names for man’s best friend are Bear, Bella, Daisy, Charlie and Phoebe.

Whilst the list of entrants included the traditional Max, Rex and Scooby, the poll showed a rising trend for names as Gaeilge with interesting Irish names like Púca, Súile, and Poigíní making the list.

 

The survey shows that many of the county’s new four-legged friends are named after gods and mythical characters, for example, Athena, Ares, Zeus, Loki and Apollo. Pet parents also gave a nod to designer brands, Dior and Coco plus some well know movie \ celebrity namesakes like Bowie, Wonka, Rambo, Indiana, Ice Cube and Simba.

 

Milo Sheehy was named Tralee Puppy of the Year. Ireland’s most popular breed is the Golden Retriever in the top spot, followed by Labradors, German Shepards, Cockapoos and Jack Russells according to the survey.
