Y’all know my situation, right?

Mid-daugter came last year before my kidney surgery. Covid hit so she stayed on.  
She was dragging her baggage, 2 eating machines(little boys) and 2 Chihuahua teenagers.  
Nasty, bitey, yappy pooping monsters.  
I hated those dogs.  
I really was thinking of ways to drown them in the pond and no one know.  
But their little air heads would’ve popped right up and floated.  
Thereby causing me to have to explain.  
First things first. They were not housebroken to my standards.  
That being: if you can’t poop and pee outdoors you die.

Do not want to ever see a dog squatting anywhere near my nice floors. EVER.

So, being the animal lover I am, and not wanting to kill dogs I took the task on. In 3 days they knew the score. In a week they were trust worthy to not poop. Pee took another week.  
Now the lil’shits love me. They come to me with their issues. I feed them. They sleep in my room at night like all the dogs and cats do.

I still loathe them. But, they mind me and are generally less yappy and bitey.

Mid-daugter hates me because I did this. She says I ruined her little pampered pets.  
I told her she would’ve liked the alternative even less.

Here’s the thing.  
They have terrible names.  
I wouldn’t ever name dogs these names. It embarrassing and sounds stupid.  
I call them Thing 1 and Thing. 2. They’ve sorts adapted to it.

I want you people to guess their real names.  
Both boys. One is fawn colored the other is tri-colored.

Just you try and guess.

Brownie points if you get it right.  
😋

The coyotes and eagles take care of the small yappy critters around here. You could always let them run about unattended for long periods…  
Hmm, I’ll take a stab at it. Bambi and Thumper? Ren and Stimpy? Gucci and Chanel?

Humm. No. Can’t recall you ever mentioning anything.

I’ll guess ‘Tom and Jerry’. Two wholly unsuitable names for dogs.

By the way, how is … what’s his name? Clarence?

I say to the eating machine little boys not to get any ideas about making Chihuahua sammiches.

They’re so small it would just make you mad.

My fawn colored yapper was named…Fawn. RIP. The absolute worst thing that has ever happened to me was losing that yapping, cuddly menace to all the cyborgs in our neighborhood.

Cyborgs=human+machine hybrids. Like skateboarders, bikers, or the worst of them all, people pushing strollers.

Salt & Pepper? I know two different people who don’t know each other. Each owns two dogs, Salt&Pepper. One pair are Miniature Schnauzers, the other mutts.
