Notes on The New Dog

I’m no good at thinking up names, but they’re both precious! They’re so cute together!

Stella. I dunno it just hit me.

Bertha. I was thinking about naming my Ridgeback Bertha, but it didn’t fit, and ended up with Zilla instead, which is a perfect fit because she is such a monster.

Big, Bad, Bertha. Yep.

That does have style, but when I think Bertha, I think fat, and there’s not an ounce on this girl. Her haunches are better cut than mine back when I used to run.

The butch bullmastiff inPooch Cafe is named Droolia. :slight_smile:

Whatever her name turns out to be, she looks like a great addition to the family.

I suggested Bave to my wife last night. She looked me square in the eye and said, “I don’t care how nice it sounds in French, we’re not naming the dog Drool.”

“Lady Goliath”? “Golgotha”?

It’s weird how much she looks like my new dog,Captain, except that she has a lot more jowl real estate (and is quite a bit bigger - he’s 65 pounds and HUGE, so I can’t imagine.) He is an unmitigated sweetheart who just wants to put his head in your lap and go to sleep.

Yes, he always has that sad pathetic look on his face.

Not an ounce of fat on her, big, strong, beautiful.

Yep, Vera is sounding more and more right.

I hear ya. But she is big and muscular, so maybe?

How about Drusilla? (from Buffy)
