That's right.
This feckless hound
who is fully aware she's not allowed in the house
yet will sneak in anyway and make a beeline for my study on the top floor
is named "Coco". This fact is clear to all. Had her for 2 years now.
But that doesn't stop my ajuma from calling her
She's a talented, bilingual dog -- refuses to obey in 2 languages. |

| What? No one has mentioned the obvious! Give the puppy a name like 보신탕 and see how Koreans salivate when you call your doggie by his name. |

Yes, Boshintang was already mentioned, and we agreed it was overused as a name, and pretty stupid haha.
Looking for something a little cuter. My mom would like it to have a cute name, not something like dog soup, or hard gay  |

| You could call it 똥개 which means mutt but literally translates to "poo dog". |

Ok, people don't read the thread do they?
That's 3 times now that Boshintang has been mentioned, and now the third time that is will be dismissed.
Again, my mother has specifically requested a CUTE Korean name for it. It's going home to be a family dog, so it's not completely up to me. |

| We had a dog named Nani. It's a mixture of Nabi and something else. My husband explained it to me but I've forgotten what it is... |

What was your dog's name?!
Geddit? No? Never mind, that was one for the Japanese speakers. |
