I have my brand new pup and she is a hit. Her story: I got her from the city pound, she was found with no ID roaming the streets. No one claimed her, so I did. In the pictures she is a bit droopy because she just got back from the vet, she is normally quite active. > **[Flickr](https://flickr.com/)** > > Flickr is almost certainly the best online photo management and sharing application in the world.

First name that came to me: SNOWBALL 🙂 So I gotta go with **Beware of Doug** on that one, I guess. She is really cute!! Congratulations and good luck on picking a good name for her. 🙂 ---

Gertrude (Trudy for short) or Elise maybe? She looks like a sweety. (The names are from Beethoven’s works, Fur Elise, and Gertrude’s Dream Waltz) ---

Thanks guys the suggestions are great. She is much more rambunctious this morning. She is still upset about the cone though. I love Falcore, but it doesn’t really roll off the tongue. The drunken girl we saw last night as we were giving her an evening walk said we should name her Casey. ---

After our walk this morning we are now leaning towards Ziggy. She literally can not walk in a straight line, she zig zags from side to side, and her hair is crimped. And I really like to say Ziggy pup. I tried to convince my BF that we should name her Iggy pup, but that didnt fly. or Allie.
