Have passed a recent homecheck and today met our potential new dog!! A whippet/collie x something else! Our boy dog and kids were smitten and DH. Rescue advise another couple nights sleep before we collect her.
Need a new name so suggsestions please ladies!
Inthepotty · 04/11/2012 22:09
Should add, she's approx 4 so not exactly a pup...
LadyTurmoil · 04/11/2012 22:21
What colour(s) is she?
Inthepotty · 04/11/2012 23:06
Black and white, mainly black

How about a proper old lady name. Ethel, maude etc
Disclaimer: pregnancy hormones may be affecting my name decisions :)

We went with Betty for our pup, I love the old lady names! What about Elsie?! Poppy seems very popular around here. Good to go with two syllables I'd heard....

Does she already have a name though? Should a new name have a similar sound?
My DB's female dog is called Bob (Think Blackadder) :)
TheCunnyFuntWearingAPoppy · 08/11/2012 08:28
Nooo not Poppy! DD is called Poppy, and DD being Dear Daughter. Not Dear Dog.

Blimey golden that's the SHORT list?!
Have narrowed down to...
Annie
Winnie
Val or
Tully (short for tallulah!)
LadyTurmoil · 08/11/2012 17:54
Tully is definitely my favourite - good name!
TheCunnyFuntWearingAPoppy · 08/11/2012 19:37
I like Annie or Tully, my first and favourite teacher at primary school was called Mrs Tully :)
Although, tbf she probably still is called Mrs Tully.
