Zombie - puppy is 6 months old now and they won't be changing her name...

How is she getting on, OP?

@WoolyMamamoth

Just because you got rescue dogs doesn't mean everyone should!!
Stop preaching crap at people.

@woolymamamoth.
Sorry I'm a little confused, why is buying an animal poor form ? Should they be stolen ? No domestic animal ever allowed to breed ?

Of course, no matter what name you choose, they almost always end up with a nickname used by the family, instead. So, go with something you call at 2am in the morning and look forward to puppy snuggles.

Oh I'm so glad DC like my suggestion of Laila - Laila Ali as a full name?

@LDpuppy brilliant. She is beautiful, very distinctive. We lost our 3rd boxer in October. Don’t think my parents would have another now as they’re in their 60s.
Wonderful you’re buying a white. We had 2 reds and a brindle.

Thank you @SleepOhHowIMissYou . My mum has had boxers all her life and was a bit concerned we were even considering a white one - still a lot of myths around them.

I think people are missing that you are buying a white boxer. Until recently, white boxers were killed at birth as they were not breed standard, so well done OP!

Given that she's white, I second the suggestion upthread for Blanche. (Also love Beryl (the peril) though as she looks like a cheeky one.

Enjoy your new family member, she's gorgeous!

@WoolyMamamoth

Well giving a puppy to a person the puppy has never met is pretty poor form in my mind.

Actually buying an animal is pretty poor form too.

Eh? In case puppy doesn't like us?? We know the breeder.
