Eric

Eric Paddington is a character from the popular manga and anime The Prince of Tennis, and he is the middle school representative from the United Kingdom. Eric is a competitor in the tennis tournament, and one of the cutest characters from the show. However, he also shares a name with another cute Eric: Eric, the therapy dog!

We all know how essential therapy dogs are and what a big part they play in the lives of the people who need them the most. One of those people is a woman named Karen who suffered a stroke that left her with little ability to speak. She could not hold a conversation, and she struggled with communication, which made her depressed. However, when she met Eric, her daughter said that even seeing him made her mother smile. The adorable dog changed so many lives, he touched so many hearts, and his selflessness and impact he left on the world did not go unnoticed. BBC’s Listen to Britain commissioned a whole short film called What’s so special about Eric, that highlights Eric’s influence and the importance of therapy dogs to people that need them.

There are numerous charities in the world such as Pets As Therapy from the United Kingdom who welcome any dog with open arms to prepare them to become therapy dogs. They also have very low requirements, one of which is that the dog is over nine months old and that they have been with their human for at least six months. Therapy dogs also have to pass a temperament test, which Eric aced without a shadow of a doubt.

The adorable Border Collie is a doggo with incredible talents and dashingly good looks. Apart from being a fantastic therapy dog, Eric has also won many herding trials, has a KC gold achievement obedience title, and he never has any issues with other humans or animals, even the ones he does not know. Small animals such as rabbits are safe around Eric, as he is not aggressive at all, and he is known as the friend of the cats. All in all, this gorgeous doggo is a whole package – handsome, smart, with a good temperament, and a wonderful personality. He is exceptional and inspiring for people who want to help their dogs become therapy doggos and help those in genuine need.

Prince of Tennis Inspired Dog Name Considerations

Finding that perfect name for your newest and fluffiest family member is no easy task. It is not easy to pick an ideal moniker that will stand out, suit your dog, and have that wow factor that all of us are looking for. Often we dog owners lack inspiration or have too many options available, so our dogs either end up being named just “dog” or end up with a name, a middle name, a family name, a nickname and only for the fun of it, a quirky moniker you only use at home. Choosing the Prince of Tennis as a starting point is a great way to narrow down your options, and have a breath of Japanese culture in your household every day.

You can start with the name Ryoma, after Ryoma Echizen, a first-year student at Seishun Academy, known as Prince of Tennis. Another interesting character is Sakuno Ryūzaki, Ryūzaki Sumire’s granddaughter and a tennis coach and math teacher, whose name can become your pupper’s new moniker. Consider Ryoga, after Ryoga Echizen who is a high school tennis player and Ryoma’s half brother. His name is fabulous for a fluffy doggo that reminds of his hair. Risa, after Risa Mizuno, a Japanese voice actress who portrayed Nanako Meino is perfect for someone who wants a little creativity in their life.
