I have two terriers, [Mardi and Ollie](http://www.flickr.com/photos/28949748@N06/2942515043/). Mardi’s overweight- always has been, Ollie’s half Jack Russell and all energy. My Mexican cleaning lady calls them Gordito and Loco Yell-oos (jealous) and the nicknames have stuck; Mardi answers to either one and Ollie answers when he feels like it. ---
