First, to those folks who wrote in with all those TAGS names for their pets - thanks for sharing that - especially Ben from West Virginia. Really clever and fun to read. As far as Barney being a WWII veteran - I'm pretty sure during "Quiet Sam" in Season 1, they talked about serv

I was trying to figure in my head if that’s a little nutty or it’s kinda cute. Then it dawned on me our puppy is named Lucy. But we named her Lucy because our loved pet Lulu had passed and we wanted to have part of her name in the puppy’s name. Just the same it is a Mayberry character name. Rick

When I was a sophomore in high school, I had a show pig I named Thelma Lou. I was only casually familiar with the show back then and probably could not have identified OUR Thelma Lou in a police lineup, but I thought the name was so hickish--a far cry (little did I realize) from the very lady-like

On the topic of Opie's pets: in "The Rumor," Opie mentions his pet lizard (explaining that he put it out, so that can't be why Aunt Bee is upset). Presumably this is the same lizard as is mentioned in "The New Housekeeper." I don't think anyone has mentioned t

Also Mr Frisby gave his Rooster Beau to Opie. I'll bet Andy made Opie give it back to him, along with the mustache cup. There are some un-seen scenes that are so hilarious hearing about, I wonder if they'd be as fun to watch. However, I'd be willing to see Otis punching Floyd in the nose. Lamar

Kirk, Opie had a dog named Gulliver and a bird named Dickey in the first episode, "The New Housekeeper". You see the bird in that episode but the only mention of Gulliver is when Opie is saying his prayers. H. makes ya wonder where those two pets went and ran off to. Jen

Don't forget his bird, Dickie, seen only in the first episode. In that same episode, he also mentions a dog (Gulliver), a lizard (Oscar), and a white mouse. In the pilot episode, he had a pet turtle which was "murdered" (stepped on) by Mrs. Bolivar at the ice cream parlor.   Paul Mulik   >>>...
