Does anybody know the name of Laika's Dog?

I think it was Boris.

I think, though. Don't take my word for it. I'm not totally sure myself. But that's what I've heard.

First I heard it mentioned was Beast Plus ep1.
Molosoff or something that sounds like it.

EDIT:
The name was mentioned at least three times in Stream 26, so...
I guess what we'll be needing is an official spelling Razz

I'm pretty sure it's "Mortisov." I got it from the dub, but I'm fairly certain it's accurate because there were very few name changes when Axess got dubbed.

From Netto's pronouncation in Stream 26 (easier to understand than Laika's to me), I believe it's 'Morosov.' Also, that spelling appears easily in a Yahoo search, so it's a real Russian name. Could be spelled with a 'z' instead of an 's,' too. I believe that's probably it, but I can't tell you 100% for sure.

I agree, name "Moroso(vu)" (you can hear it pretty clearly in stream26 at 22:08 ) is quite plausible. Yes, Morozov is a common russian last name and it has some historical military backgrounds as well. But for dog's name, "Moroz" is more correct form.

Jfyi, in russian "Moroz" means frost, and "Laika" - breed of hunting dogs (and often used as the dog's name by itself). Check Wikipedia for more info.

In Axess #40, both in the Japanese and English dub, it's Morosov ( ﾓﾛｿｯﾌ ). It's a Russian name, although I'm not sure if it has any particular meaning or connontation.

Well, I google'd and Wiki'd for Morosov and Morozov and it appears it's quite a usual Russian surname. I am not sure what else to make of it though... *shrugs*
