As for the debate over what the Raven and Patchwork dogs are named, they will be named whatever it is that people are calling them, regardless of how fitting the name might be. If a lot of people were calling the Patchwork by the name 'Squishy Fish dog', that name would be listed here because it was a name in popular use (do not start calling it the Squishy Fish >w<), even though it would make very little sense. As it is, I still see a fair number of people using Scarecrow for the Patchwork, even though it doesn't look much like a scarecrow, so for now it'll stay as a split name. ;3 The Raven seems to be pretty solidly 'the Raven' - I haven't seen a single person referring to it as the Nevermore dog, just lots of people who name their individual dogs Nevermore.
