KarenJoanna Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I am thinking of a saint's name or something derived from it. I fall short though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancilla Domini Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Rocco (aka Roch/Rock) - patron saint of dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 Rocco is good. St. Roch is always portrayed with a dog holding a loaf of bread in his mouth. Peter Canisius would also be good. His given + family name was Peter de Hundt, which translates as Peter of the Dog. He referred to himself by using the Latinized form of the family name (related to "canine") and has always been known since as Peter Canisius.
