Re: Top 5 names for our new puppy
my s.i.l. has a girl mini schnauzer, and the only one of your names that suits her is Oscar - the others are a bit butch for a small dog ( even a boy dog!)
here's a list:

Re: Top 5 names for our new puppy
We are getting a black Labrador on Friday. Male and I'm told we are calling it Willow. It's from a local gamekeeper.
I wanted to call it Dennis.
I'm led to believe that many people are using normal names nowadays like Dave, Frank and Tom.
Whatever you choose enjoy...I can't wait.

I still think the new chap should have a Welsh leaning - how about Taffy ?

We had a Cairn called Henry. He lived to the age of 17 and I really could not bring myself to have another pet after losing him.Incidentally, my daughter also currently has a Cairn named Fred, she is an avid cricket fan and named him after Flintoff!

May be when you actually see the dog one of the names will just be the right one Lyndsey.

I have always had girlies, but if I were going to have a boy pup he would be called Stanley!

Re: Top 5 names for our new puppy
Hi Lindsey,
Having just returned from 8 days at the tin can l haven't as yet had much time to think about doggy names but considering the origins of the breed one might like to consider 'Bosch' as a suitable name...just make sure he comes with a 3 year guarantee though
Whatever you do don't take Darkknights lead who called his dogs Fang, Jaws and Snapper...as always please don't tell him l've said that.
Regards
Keith
P.s For something a little more unusual how about Flint?.

Re: Top 5 names for our new puppy
Someone mentioned "Fred" a while ago so Lindsey could always get three pups and call them "Fred", "Flint" and "Stone" !!Onelife wrote:Hi Lindsey,

I had a cairn terrier called Scamp. He was a little bugger!!
Our springer was called Barney and was as mad as a hatter.

Re: Top 5 names for our new puppy
We dont have dogs. However my neighbour has a Shitzu called 'Buster'. He is a real character but so docile, and often walks by with a coat on with the word Security on it. I have taken to giving him treats, usually three at a time, and he sits up and begs for them. He now strains at the leash to get up our drive when he passes each morning, even if I am nowhere to be seen.
Buster is a good name for him.

Lindsey - you can't give your new pup a cat's name - he will have a complex !
