Doody Calls

When doody calls – you listen. This Pet Services Company (what IS that exactly?) was spotted in Charlottesville, Virginia USA by one of our Top Punters, Jonathan Schneider.

Birdsville

One for the Australians. This pet shop in Rosebery NSW is named after the famous township of Birdsville QLD, which many famous explorers passed through, including Captain Charles Sturt and Burke & Wills. And it’s home to the Birdsville Races, held in September each year. Spotted by Renée Keogh, who knew all of this, of course.

The Pet Set

This first-class Pun Shop Name was spotted by jet-setter Marc Burns in Atlanta, Georgia USA.

Heavy Petting

Who could say no to a little heavy petting. Hang on.. are there actual pets involved? Gross. Straight into the Hall of Fame for this promiscuous PSN, spotted by Georgia O’Brien in Balmain NSW.

Pets in the City

From the TV show that’s spawned any number of cringe-worthy puns, including Hall of Famer ‘Spex in the City‘. This Pun Shop Name was found by Georgia O’Brien, ironically, not in the city, but in Neutral Bay NSW.

Fintastic

This ‘fintastic’ Pun Shop Name was spotted in Charlotte, North Carolina USA by Jonathan Schneider. Perhaps the owner is from New Zealand and it’s simply a miscommunication with the sign writer? We’ll never know.

Aquadisiac

Happy New Year everyone.. here’s to a bumper crop of Pun Shop Names for 2011. Kicking off the year is Aquadisiac, an arousing aquarium and pet shop in Surry Hills NSW.

Tanks A Lot

Well it had to happen eventually. Fans of the blog will know that it’s named after the first Pun Shop Name I ever spotted, many years ago (check it out here). And now, spotted by Jonathan Schneider in Lake Worth Florida USA, another TANKS A LOT. I salute you, Tanks A Lot Aquarium Service, Inc.. and you Jonathan. Straight into the Hall of Fame.

Pup Culture

For a really long and boring definition of ‘Pop Culture’ click here. Or rebel against the mainstream by taking your dog to Pup Culture on Broome St, New York City and giving it a mohawk instead. Oh, actually that probably is classified as Pop Culture in NYC. Whatevs. Spotted by Georgia O’Brien.

Le Beastro

June 12, 2010 Leave a comment

This isn’t our first PSN for a Pet Gift Shop…. that honour goes to Dogue. But it is certainly the strangest. ‘Le Beastro’ sound more like somewhere you’d go to eat your pet, in a relaxing casual atmosphere. Whatever.. it’s a great PSN and it was found by Melanie Mahoney near Santa Monica Pier, California.

Paws A While

If there’s one thing you should do when choosing a gift for your pet.. it’s TAKE YOUR TIME. Even the most placid Labrador could be driven to violence by an inappropriate gift. Found in the Queen Victoria Building in Sydney NSW.

Dogue

In the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, your house is in Vogue, your garden is in Vogue, your clothes are in Vogue, so of course, your dog is in Dogue. Spotted on Oxford Street, Bondi Junction.
