PUPPY UPDATE!!
« on: February 13, 2008, 05:08:44 pm »
Today, my puppy turned 3 weeks  ;D and I received and update e-mail from the breeder. At 6 lbs 8 oz, he is a little fat-a**  :-*

I have included his pics -look at that face!!!! but first, I would like some name help (nothing in life is free, peeps! want your cuteness fix? well, this is a give and take. give and take!)  ;)

I'm debating mainly between 2 names: Lucca and Clover.
What do you think? My 2yo chihuahua is Frida. And since I graduated with degrees in art and psychology, I was considering Pavlov for this puppy (not Freud. never Freud!!)... but then put it aside.. so I can still be swayed to considering other names.. so you can suggest if you'd like  :)

sorry, I forgot to mention that my only condition to potential names is that they sound the same in English and Spanish -since some of my relatives don't speak English, but everyone speaks Spanish..  and, and, I like the picture of him on his back... caption would be "HELP! I've fallen and I can't get up!" I also like the last one... he looks pooped after his photo session  ;)

He's sooooo cute. The name ROGER came to mind. It is different for a dog name and the pronounced fairly the same in Eng and Span.

Oh!!  One of my FAVORITE names is Lucca!  In light of your interest in psychology, I would stay away from (Karen) Horney (hehe), and head more in the direction of Harry Stack Sullivan!  I think Harry is so cute and so is Sully! 

I also love Oliver for a name!

Sully is adorable too.

If you name him Lucca, you'll have to live on the 2nd floor.  :)

ha ha! yeah, he already weighs as much as his big sister Frida  (the 6.5 lb, 2yo chihuahua)!!  :D

Everyone, thanks for all the names suggestions and votes. I happen to be partial to people names  ;D Dogs with random people names make me happy -did anyone see I am Legend? gosh, I loved that dog...
I'm beginning to lean more towards Lucca, even though I didn't come up with it -my best friend did.. Because, and you're going to think I am such a weirdo, I don't know why I hadn't thought about it, but I just remembered this afternoon that some times I can't pronounce "v" -LOL -Spanish is my 1st language, and in it b and v sound the same... never mind I do speak me a mean English (if I do say so myself  ;)), and even got a perfect score on my English ACTs and went to HS and college here in Denver, I guess I just learned English a little too late (13). I can hear the difference, but most of the time I cannot for the life of me pronounce it (I know, v is more like a b-f sound, and b like a b-p, but I still suck!  :P). So I wouldn't like to call my pup "clobber" or "clubber"  :D

I have issues  :P
