My wife and I have an Australian shepard named Olive. We've already committed to getting a mini and naming it caper

Alternatively, Olive and Chives is pretty good too.

I had a great-aunt named Olive whose husband's name was Ham (short for Hamilton).

Always known as Ham and Olive.

I was terrified he was going to headbutt my penis

E: I guess more appropriate for this particular episode -- everyone knows that the head is the hammer of the body

First dog was named Olive. Decided to stick with the food theme and the second dog was named Nutmeg.

Er?

That way you could have Olive & er. And if you get a third one you could call it John.

(Their nicknames could also be "Last", "Week", & "Tonight":-P)
