We have a new addition :) No - not another RR but an Aussie pup to keep Meg company. She is the most beautiful red merle, with a part white collar and with startling blue eyes and she is adorable. The problem is that my partner and I can't come up with a name that we both like, so any suggestions would be appreciated - otherwise she may get stuck with being called Puppy!
How about "Merle" or of course "Red" I once knew of a red merle called "Santa" (Red outfit!) but she was a Xmas baby. (Born then, not for ???) Have fun with your new baby.
Thank you all - some lovely suggestions and some I like are very close to names we already have or have used in the past. I'll have a chat with my partner after he's finished making supper- I'm busy puppy watching :) (Yes, he is wonderful!!)
I particularly like Poppy, Ruby and Chilli and she is a little Diva (following on from one of Debs' ideas) but will let you know what he thinks.
And thanks for the congrats - she is just beautiful and such a little character, so bold and playful, yet SO cuddly :)
Can only join in. Chilli is a perfect name! My warmest congratulations to your new addition! I know all about how time consuming they are, not much time for anything else. :p You don't happen to have any photos laying around, do you? Karen
Gosh, don't call her Ruby. If you are like me you will then feel compelled to buy jewellery in your dog's name and rubies are darn expensive. Garnets are red too and less costly. :) Garnet somehow sounds male to me though.
I like Flame, used to have a new forest stallion called Flame bright chestnut and he was a real lovey, soooo gentle...the littlest used to sit on his back while i washed his long white socks..one time her shivered and the smallest child was shivered slowly off his back on to the deck..... might be a good omen?
Thank you to all who responded - she is now ..... Poppy (It may be a bit common - but I don't know any Poppies and the name made me smile when I first read it)
Thanks, Gabrielle - I agree with you :) :)
If I knew how to do the photo bucket thing, I'd do it - but am happy to email pics if anyone wants to pm me.
