Is your cat's name Missy or Smokey? If so, they're a statistic.

Spokane Regional Animal Protection Services dug up the top names for dogs and cats out of their data they've been collecting for the past couple of years and if you thought there were a lot of dogs named Buddy, you were right. 

When you adopt a pet, you may fill out a licensing form which includes a space for a name. That's where this information comes from.

When S.C.R.A.P.S. combines with the city of Spokane's animal control, we'll be able to take a bigger look at what names are the most popular in the entire county. This only covers unincorporated Spokane County, Spokane Valley and Liberty Lake.
