Introduction

The mind of Gregory House is a complex entity! The medical genius is dedicated to diagnosing even the most baffling illnesses. Along with his crew of three medical residents, House works to treat patients in the direst of circumstances. Dr. House is not the typical doctor. He has no bedside manner, and, if he can get away with it, House never visits a patient. Often, he only becomes social when the diagnosis warrants his personal observation of a patient. House is plagued by his own illness - a blood clot irreversibly damaged the tissue in his right thigh. This could be one reason why House is such a dour character.

House Dog Name Considerations

House is set in a hospital. Very rarely did any dogs actually appear on the show. However, in one episode, a man plagued with an undiagnosed parasite is accompanied by his therapy dog, a Golden Retriever. 

While canines are not in great supply on the show, we can still look to the personality characteristics of House and his contemporaries in order to determine exactly what breeds are worthy of a name inspired by House. 

First, Dr. House prefers to be alone, with the exception of his friend Dr. James Wilson. Some breeds that would rather spend their time in solitude include many Mastiff breeds, the Akita, and, surprisingly, the Chihuahua. (The Chihuahua often bonds to one person and wishes to spend time with that one person. A Chihuahua may or may not tolerate other people outside of their "person.") Dr. House's desire to cultivate a friendship only with Dr. Wilson is much like the way a Chihuahua prefers one person. 

Dr. House is also a bit of a renegade. He often does as he pleases without regard for the rules of the hospital and his supervision, Dr. Cuddie. Some dog breeds that tend to be headstrong include the Boston Terrier and the Chow Chow.
