Dogs with House of Cards names can be found throughout pop culture. Take the name Doug. Doug Stamper is Francis Underwood’s aid in House of Cards and Doug is also the name of a very special dog.

Another special pup with a House of Cards name is Freddy, a well-known Great Dane. You may remember the character of Freddy Hayes, who owned the BBQ restaurant that Frank Underwood would frequently visit early in the series. Freddy the Great Dane is the World’s Biggest Dog, who stands at 7 feet 6 inches when on his hind legs. His owner, Claire Stoneman, who is from Essex, is devoted to him as well as to his sister, named Fleur. Ms. Stoneman stated that the dogs are like children to her and she shares her king-sized bed with her large pooch. Like his size, Freddy’s food costs are large; a favorite treat for the Great Dane is a whole roast chicken. He also enjoys peanut butter toast. As a puppy, Freddy was a bit destructive, having demolished 23 sofas until he learned that sitting on them was preferable. Ms. Stoneman gets up early to take Freddy on a daily 40 minute walk, hoping to avoid other dogs who might be rattled by her canine companion, as she admits that if Freddy wanted to run after another dog, at 5 feet 4 inches herself, she would not be able to stop him.
