@JGoldman10,
Oh, sorry about that. I forgot that we went through all that before. I've been suffering from a sleep disorder, plus I've got a lot on my mind. That's why I forget these things.
The heroes have two watchdogs - Tuck and Buffer. Maybe their evil counterparts would be Terror and Botch?.
Argus, Todd and Lone Wolf are definitely dog names.
@JGoldman10,
Yo, bonehead!
Lone Wolf would be a wolf not a dog.

Scrapper sounds like a dog's name to me - either Scottish or British. I think some Irish people use it.

Scrapper is a UK slang term. Ask Izzy or McTag - they can tell you.
Gamecock, Cockerel and Bantam? work as dog names.
