Photos of farm dogs of Australia and your favourite names for them

We had a flood of suggestions on social media this week on Australia's favourite farm dog names.

Turbo is Eva Webb's furry friend, Lexie is Sharni Blackney's pick, or how about Miss Minnie from Ruth Jensen.

Avalon McGrath offered up some people names for her gang - Phil, Clyde, Ace and Kevin.

There were quite a few Gunners, Shelbys and Robys.

Lisa Wippell's big mob has the names Maggie, Lexi, Mulga, Toby, Patti, Annie, Delta, Corey and Clyde.

Sarah Blundell has Baloo, Winter and mum Midge.

There was Gyp, Stormy, Jep, Biscuits, Tinkerbell.

Kyle Nicholas-Benny's truck dogs were Ben and Sadie.

Courtney Cleeland offered up Whistlen Dixie and her daughter Whistlen Lenny.

Australia's favourite farm dog names came into focus with National Love Your Pet Day held on Monday.

We suspected farm dog names might be a bit different to the other "most popular" dog names doing the rounds.

And we were right.

Emily had Tradie and Gin, Christine named her pampered pooches Tilly and April.

Tessa, Cassie, Lucy, Grace, Steve.
