Tom Bierly of Stafford, Virginia submitted this photo of his three dogs, (from left) Gucci, Nicky and Rossi. He included a note: “Nicky, in the center, is named after Nicky Hayden. Rossi, on the right, is named after the GOAT, Valentino Rossi. Gucci, on the left, was named after a bag. I didn’t name him, someone else did…if anyone asks, we call him ‘Bubba.’ “Rossi and Nicky are Belgian Malinois…same parents, different litter. Gucci is a French Bulldog.” Do you have a pet named after a famous racer, or know someone else who has a pet named after a famous racer?
