The Dogs Trust Glasgow rehoming centre has claimed that the most popular name pet insurance customers give to dogs is Max as the institution currently has five residents with that name.
Dogs Trust Glasgow rehoming centre manager Sandra Lawton said it's not unusual to have two dogs at the shelter with the same name but to have five is completely unusual.
Ms Lawton added that there are only 14 dogs with the name Max currently at the 17 UK Dogs Trust rehoming centres so it is a surprise to have so many.
"Max is a popular name for dogs as people like to give their pets human names as they consider them to be very much part of the family," she continued.
The Dogs Trust is the UK's largest pooch welfare charity caring for over 16,000 stray or abandoned canines every year through its 17 rehoming centres across British Isles.
