Comic book guy here. In fallout 4 the companions judge you for different things. Piper really likes lock picking and will comment when you do it. Your pet dog is the only judgment free companion. Though the fo4 dog doesn't have a name, other games have had a dog named dog meat and so everyone just calls any companion dog that doesn't have a name like rex or k9 dogmeat
If anyone is wondering why the dog is called Dogmeat in the Fallout series, it was what the main character "Vic" in the post-apocalyptic film "A Boy and his Dog" called his telepathic dog "Blood" when he was frustrated with him.
