Academics recently applauded a Social Psychology Quarterly study purporting to show a disparity in the time dogs were adopted based on racial associations with the animals’ names.

“White” names, according to the study, resulted in shorter adoption times compared to “Black” names.

WTAF is a white dog name?

a white dog name is a traditional name that is spelled correctly. A black dogs name would consist of adding a Ja- to the beginning of a male dog's name or a La- in front of a female dog's name.

So "spot" would be a white dog name while Jaspot, Jayspot would be a black male dog name and LaSpot or LaSpotoya would be a black dog's name.

As I outlined at the top of the previous page, that term is shorthand for an extensive online survey they did regarding the perceptions of the general public regarding the racial background of people with various different names.

So what kind of names are - Goldie, Deuce, Hershey, Rover, Spot, Diesel, Gumbo, Roux, and Tiger. I know At least one white person who has named a dog everything on that list.

Hell, I have a black friend who named his dog Boudreaux. I’ve never in my life known a black person named Boudreaux.

DOGS ARE NOT PEOPLE

DOGS DO NOT HAVE RACES.

THIS “STUDY” IS STUPID frickING PSEUDOSCIENCE

No one wants a fricking dog named Tyrone.

This is something definitely worthy of study.

Our institutions of higher learning mock what they pretend to be.

I have a cat named Buster Brown. He's a big black tuxedo kitty. Growing up, our dogs were named Gertrude, Chelsea and Ajay. My sister's dogs are named Molly, Hattie, Tucker and Snacks Bethany. We're obv Caucasian.

I like the variation in cat names better. Such as Marshal, Singie (CA firecat my friend rescued after the Paradise fire with singed fur), Momma Kitty, Tabitha, Tomas, Momo, Cain, Kitten Man, Briathan, Luna, Minnie Mouse, Minga Sue, Foo Foo, Boogie-Pie, Hamilton, Oliver, Elliott, Dolly, Beatrice, Jupiter, One Eye Jack (one of his eyes opened a week before the other one, lived to be 19, both eyes still worked until the end.) I adopted a trio of kittens once named Eenie, Meenie and Moe. One is still named Eenie (renamed Enid Bacon-Seed Little Feather, officially.)

Bunny names are even more fun: Peneloppy, Odysseus, Sappho, Milkfat, Little Bunny Foo, Rambo, S.Ophelia Clementine, Philo, Theo, Fiona.

Don't get me started on chicken names. Well OK just one: I had a big black Jersey Giant and she was a beautiful oil slick greenish black. I named her Diesel. (Norcal bawette ftw, lol.)

Anyway I'm glad this thread came back because of Michael Jr's comedy gold. When the Black brother says his dog's name so dejected... and it was the same name as the sister's dog. So funny.
