Let’s be honest, half of us name our dogs after snacks. Apricot is the new hotness. It’s sweet, slightly ridiculous, and sounds like a 1920s flapper who just discovered jazz. Shout “Apricot, heel!” at the park and watch people reach for their wallets, assuming you’re selling jam.
Then there’s Alfalfa. Yes, like the sprouter. This works best for a wildly energetic puppy with hair that sticks straight up. He’ll look like he’s been electrocuted by a salad. Also, surprising fact: dogs can actually taste umami, so an Alfalfa might genuinely enjoy a hay snack. Don’t test this. Your vet will send you a passive-aggressive invoice.
