Subject: Funniest Translation of the Breed's Name....

 Reading one of the posts on here inspired me to ask this question. I'm sure we've all had the chance to answer the question: "What kind of dog is that?" when we've had our little one's out in public. Whenever I've told people the name of the breed, I find that ninety nine percent of the time, the first reaction is "what?" or "Chinese what?"
Hearing someone on here callling them "Chinese Crescents" reminded me of the funniest "translation" I have ever recieved. When I told the person asking the name of the breed of my little one, he responded, "Chinese Triscit?". I had a good laugh and still to this day jokingly call Bela or Sweetpea my little CHinese Triscits.
Has anyone else had any funny experiences?
