Help me name her!

I'm a foster parent (?) of border terriers who need new homes . I'm usually impervious to their charm and they go on happily to their new homes after they have recovered from their ordeals. They have vet treatment with me and when they're well enough and ready they go on to their forever homes.

However, I got a call on Wednesday saying that's there was a very badly treated border within my area and could I go and get it from the rescuer (maintaining social distancing) which was very rare. So I went and got her on Wednesday evening and she's been here since. She's not going anywhere we're in love with her and she's filled a hole we didn't know we had.

She's had a really shitty life, she's 18 months and the vet thinks she's had at least 1 litter, she underweight and unlike most dogs who have lived in a garden shed for most of her life she's not scared of people she wants to sleep on us and she's honestly the sweetest dog ever

So help me name her!

Ahh she is gorgeous and great news she has turned you into a "Failed Fosterer" (aka She Stays Grin )

All Border Terriers look like teddy bears so the only name is
" Steiff"

Pebble -- humble beginnings & under-estimated. Unpolished gem.

Who said Esme? I like that very much.

Oh what a little poppet!

I also like Truffle.

OMG she's gorgeous. Love BT's, got one snoring on my bed at the moment. I think she looks like an Esme too.

Weirdest auto correct ever! Milson of course

Grumpbum123 · 04/04/2020 13:05

Bumble we are desperate for a border and this is the name my boys have named it in advance!

MacavityTheDentistsCat · 04/04/2020 13:09

She looks like a Trudy to me. But Mabel is great too though.

ScorchioScorchio · 04/04/2020 13:19

She looks like a Violet to me.

Enough4me · 04/04/2020 13:22

Milson (Millie for short)

Dogsaresomucheasier · 04/04/2020 13:32

I’d call her Mischief!

pazwaz70 · 04/04/2020 13:36
