Help Name My Dog

I like Dixie

And Sweets like I said before just because they sound like stripper names to you doesn't mean they are.

I explained Sapphire....Lacy also has hidden meaning it is the name of one of the best female roles in the history of cinema...Lacy Underalls.

Nubia...is short for Nubian and well I'll let Wes explain that one to you.

Aw sugar I never meant to imply that your momma's baby boy had ever spent that much time in strip clubs. I was just saying....I had a friend in grad school who worked at a gentlemen's club to pay for school. I know they all say that's what they are doing, but she really was.
Anyway, I heard all the names I posted next to...tis all.

Nubia was a mexican girl.

elle ("L")

keep the name to one syllable...helps during training.

Actually, they say a simple two syllable name is best. Seems dogs grasp those better.

partly, i was being a wise guy to wes. i don't know if a dog grasps two syllable names "better" but often many of the commands are one syllable and it can confuse the dog...elle sounds similar to heel.

i've trained 3 dogs (2 waterfowl retrieving and 1 AKC obedience trials) and as a personal preference (and from advice) i've kept it to one syllable for the dogs and myself.

personally, i don't think it matters...but keep it "simple" like cctau stated.

another suggestion:

wes - I think Annie is a great name. I didn't make any suggestions because I agree with whoever said that a dog's name has to fit the dog, and with only two pictures to go on, well...

Plus, I knew all the fisting and hooker related names would be suggested without my help.

Good luck with the training!!

Annie is perfect.

I negotiated a deal with my neighbor. She's at home all day and has 5 dogs of her own to care for. She pleaded with me to take the pup and I agreed on the condition that she visit, walk and otherwise entertain Annie during the day and watch her when I travel for work.

Now, when she gets old enough, Annie will travel with me as most of my hotels are pet-friendly.

No, although I know just about everything she and her husband have ever done to each other...and with other people. They're very...uh...open.

Cool as shit, but she is not my type.

I take all women on their individual merits. Age is nothing to me. Shit, since I've been single, I've been cougar hunting. They love me.
