After years of wanting a dog (I grew up with dogs) I am finally approaching a time when it would be suitable to get one. I'm very excited as I've waited so long and things are finally falling into place!
I'm thinking of early next year and I have my heart set on a Black and Tan smooth haired daschund.
I have had plenty of time to research the breed and feel confident this is the right breed for my family.
The only thing is I'm unsure whether to get a dog or bitch, and I'm struggling with names a little.
So, this picture of a dog I found on google, what would you name him/her? 
The names I have so far are:
Male:
Female:
- Wilma/Wilmer
- Minnie (I like it but too cutsie)
- Martha
All of the names I come up with are met with raised eyebrows 
Any suggestions? Do you like any of my ideas?
