Gay style coverage of lesbian and gay fashion and lifestyle.

Gay.com member Slimbrampton says of his Bernese mountain dogs: "They are my babies and I love them to death!"

What's your pet's name ... and why?

Their names are Elpheba (Elphie for short; left) and Dodger (right). Elpheba was named after the character in the musical "Wicked" (how gay is that?), and Dodger is just a name that I picked because I thought it was cute.

Do you think you look like your pet?

No, I don't think I look like my dogs. In fact, their personalities are completely different from my own. They are hyper and outgoing; I'm low-key and quiet.

If you could speak your pet's language, what would you say to him/her?

If I spoke their language, I'd tell them I love them and that they mean the world to me.
