One Piece Inspired Dog Names

Introduction

What's the one thing most people desire in life? Wealth? Fame? Power? An infamous pirate by the name of Gol D. Roger worked long and hard to attain all of those things and more before he was finally captured and set to be executed in the humble hamlet of Loguetown. But Roger had no plans to go silently into the that final good night; before the headsman's ax could strike down upon his neck, Gol D Roger told everyone present in Loguetown that he'd left everything he had in One Piece, and they'd have to find it to become the new king of the pirates. Gol D. Roger died that day, but he inspired a New Age of Pirates to search for his treasure. The series follows a band of brave men and women known as the Straw Hat Pirates whose leader, Monkey D. Luffy, intends to do just that.

Chouchou

Dogs are often exemplified for their capacity for grand displays of loyalty, even at the dog's own in expense in many extreme cases; most of us have heard about Hachiko, the immensely loyal Akita dog who befriended a man then passed away waiting for his newfound master to return to him. Well, Chouchou is a dog from One Piece that's been cut from the same cloth as Hachiko. As with all of the other character designs in the series, Chouchou posses an extremely exaggerated and hyperbolized character design, which bars him from resembling any real world breeds in any significant degree. Nevertheless, Chouchou was specifically created to pay homage to the likes of Hachiko and Greyfriars Bobby.

Just like the two courageous canines mentioned above, Chouchou had unfortunately outlived his master, the Pet Food Shop Owner Hocker of Orange Town; Hocker had to leave the shop one fateful day, and he charged Chouchou with the task of protecting the shop in his absence. But due to unknown circumstances, Hocker never returned to Pet Food Shop. With his master's fate an uncertainty, Chouchou was left all alone inside of the Orange Town shop.

After enough time had passed, Chouchou began to cast aside all delusions of his master's return; in his hear of hearts, the dog knew that his master had somehow perished somewhere beyond the walls of the shop and that he'd never see him again in this life. To pay tribute to his master, Chouchou resolved to protect his master's shop with his life. After some time, Chouchou's resolve would be put to the test when the Buggy Pirates raided Orange Town. Initially seeking to sack and pillage the town, a few of the Buggy Pirates decided to visit Chouchou's Pet Food Shop in the hopes of getting their hands on a five finger discounted snack. What they hadn't counted on was running into Chouchou.

The little dog put the Buggy Pirates through hell, but they returned the favor by burning the Pet Food Shop down and leaving Chouchou homeless. Around this time, the dog also encountered Luffy, who exacted revenge on the Buggy Pirates for all the damage they'd incurred to Orange Town. The people of Orange Town were initially grateful until they learned that Luffy was also a pirate. His back against the wall, Monkey D. set out to flee from Orange Town, a goal he accomplished with Chouchou's help. Luffy would encounter Chouchou again after two years, to then find Chouchou as the proud owner of a newly opened Giant Pet Food Shop.
