    I am so happy she is with you!

    She had a teenage girl as an owner, with younger sister and mom. There was a brother & dad too so she's been around fellas.

    I don't have alot of guys in my life, so her 2 weeks with me were mostly just she & I. She did warm up to my landladys BF so no worries. Especially since her days will be spent with your DH.

    Hope you enjoy her! Puffy is a sweet little girl... and a new name might just work. I used to call her "Punky" 'cause her little girl used to scissor cut her hair in bad flea season. She looked like a little punk rocker afterwards

    I vote for "Toughy."

    When I got my dog, his name was Shadow. I didn't like that, so I changed it to Shiloh. With my southern accent, I don't think he can tell.

    My mom had a dog named Honey Lamb. She adopted it out to someone who changed it to Cunningham.

    Yay for Puffy! (and for Edna & Dave, too!!)

    We changed both our dogs names after adoption. One was 'Quickdraw' (nice name for a girl puppy?) and we dubbed her Maggie. She was only about 4 months old, though. The other was older (over a year old) and came with the name Jimmy, but we changed it to Charlie and he took to it right away. I think that most dogs just want to be called - they don't care what you call them!

    Puffy/Buffy's got a nice new pack! hope she'll bring loads of joy into her new family's life!

    When I got my dog, he came with the name "Chevy". I debated changing it because I would never name a dog after a car. But he just looked like a Chevy. And besides, I live in a very pretentious neighbourhood, so it was great having a redneck kind of dog with a trailer park name (no offense to anyone intended by my statement!)

    Over the 6.5 years I had him he had a slew of names I called him: Chevs, Chevro, Chevrolet, Ro-Ro, Bumbum, Pupperoni, Baby, Handsome... Towards the end it didn't matter what I called him, he was pretty deaf so there were a lot of hand gestures
