Maybe you can be the dog's godparent!

The flower theme is nice, but I like Matilda best of all the options offered so far. Particularly if she can be taught to waltz. :wink:

Well, we're 24 + hours in to our new relationship and we have had no poops in the house!

We have only had four small tinkles inside too. (She goes about every 25 minutes so four is a very small number, considering.)

She knows the word "No" and she still has no name. But she comes when I call puppy or good girl.

I wish to name her Greta, son wants the name Bebe and Hubby wants the name Sugar. We must come up with a compromise and soon.......

I vote for Sugarpie, Shug for short. My grandfather gave my mom that nickname when she was a little girl, and her youngest brother called her that until the day she died.

I guess Greta Garbe is out?
If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will not bite you. This is the principal difference between a dog and a man.

Congrats on the new family member!

Don't worry about the name. She will inspire one for herself soon, I am guessing.

You can't use "George Steinbrenner Field", though. Hank and Hal just renamed Legends Field in Tampa for dear ol' dad.

"Yogi" wouldn't work either. "Sparky" or "Scooter" might.

Forgive me. I've spent too uch energy over the years naming pets. The next one is just gonna be Joe.

Joe the cat or Joe the dog. That's it.

Of course, Bebe is similar to Beebs, so I like that. I love the name Greta as a name, but can it be diminutized? Is that a word? Wait, Grets, Greters. Never mind. That would work.
For some reason I really like Sugar. I never thought of that as a name. I like it. How about SugarGreta?
Well, then

Merv is responsible. You know how they are. Even Jeff is in thrall.
Well, then
