Article by Neil Turner
The popular pet names list for 2008 has just been compiled and alongside the usual suspects were a few new additions to the list.
"Chelsea" proved popular, coming in at no.36 on the top dogs list. We're guessing this is down to Chelsea Davy - on/off girlfriend (more off than on) of Prince Harry.
