Gender of Clark's Dog[]
Although as recently as "Instinct" Clark refers to Shelby as "Boy", judging by the way Clark responds to Lois' comment about "any woman he hasn't stood up" it seems likely that Shelby was made female by the writers specifically so she could say that line, and that perhaps from now on Clarks dog is female, in a very weird way.
- That's a whole lot of speculation, coinsidering you yourself pointed out that in Shelby's last appearance they remembered he was male. It's a lot more likely that Lois is mistaken, considering she doesn't care for Shelby and it's not her dog. Marikology 06:15, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
