October 2, 200817 yr I thought it was Brattzie. Not that it matters; 'cause she won't come when you call anyway. We didn't want the poor dog to have too much of a stigma attached to her, she's so neurotic as it is. You are so right on the second part. :irked:
October 2, 200817 yr I didn't realize one named footstools! :lol: We didn't have pets when I was litte, but I did have a pet rock...named....Rocky! :lol: I had a hermit crab named Louie once, after a dork I went to grade school with. I had a cocker spaniel named Cody once. Then there was a black lab mix named Zack. What a sweetie he was! Probably 100 fish over the years, most named Goldie. A rainbow lizard named Lizzie, who I cared for very much. :cry: Now I have my Lucky Dog! A little story some of you know...it's Tony Danza's fault I have a dog! :lol: Actually, I should thank her. I went out with her one night, and had to drive with my kids to my parents early the next morning to a family affair. The whole way down, all day at my parents, and the whole way back my kids BEGGED me for this dog. I told the fine, after hours and hours of begging, and I was just too darned tired to keep hearing it. BUT, they had to be completely and utterly responsible for it, vet bills, walks, food, the whole nine-yards. WELL, that lasted about a week....but by that time I was in love! My daughter wanted to name him Rambo, but as he was part Jack Russell, part Beagle, I knew he'd never grow into his name. So, me being the proud parent of a Trinity football player, I suggested Rocky, but another in the litter was already named Rocky. So, I came up with Lucky! And, he's definitely perfectly named. He's lucky I'm his owner! :lol: He's a handful! But, actually, I'm lucky to have him. He has been the best thing to happen to me besides my kids (no offense to my human friends. ) I even told my daughter once, in an argument where she threatened to give Lucky away, that he stayed, but she was welcome to find another place to live. :lol:
October 2, 200817 yr I didn't realize one named footstools! :lol:Shhh. Not so loud, she's very touchy about that.

October 2, 200817 yr We have a Golden Retriever named Roxie and a Pug named Brandy. When I first got married we had a Bassett Hound I named Vern after the Jim Varney commercials. One of the dumbest dogs I have ever owned, would lay on his back in the middle of the night when we were asleep and bark at the ceiling fan and eat his own poop. My 2 girls got a Cocker Spaniel when they were little and named it Hobie after my father-in-law, he doesn't like dogs and didn't see the humor in it, but my mother-in-law did.
October 3, 200817 yr I didn't realize one named footstools! :lol:You're going to get me in trouble. We didn't have pets when I was litte, but I did have a pet rock...named....Rocky! :lol:Such creative genius at an early age! A rainbow lizard named Lizzie, who I cared for very much. :cry:Is that the reptile that I knew? If so, that was a very sweet story.
October 3, 200817 yr You're going to get me in trouble. Got that one from the horse's mouth. You're safe. :lol: Such creative genius at an early age! Such a genius, I was... Is that the reptile that I knew? If so, that was a very sweet story. The same. :cry:
October 3, 200817 yr To Bunnies Named Hope and Miracle. They were the first born of a rabbit I had I had to hand feed them because rabbits usually kill their first litter or I was told. I kept them alive for a month or so.
October 3, 200817 yr Got that one from the horse's mouth. You're safe. :lolWell "the horse" is convinced that you got it from me--which you probably did. :sssh: The same. :cry:The way you cared for, treated, medicated and ultimately, euthanized that little guy was very touching. You have to have a pretty big heart to cry over a lizard. :thumb:
October 3, 200817 yr Dog - Ringo, named after a certain Beatle. Dog - Butterball, was a yellow fuzz ball when we got her. Dog - Puppy, never meant to keep her. Answered to the name, so we didn't change it. Dog - Misty, had grey misty colored eyes. Cat - Space Cadet, quite possibly the dumbest animal that ever lived. Cat - Elwood, named after a certain SNL comedian. Horse - Firecracker, had horrible issue with passing gas.
October 3, 200817 yr I had a Boxer named Maverick back in the day. I had him for 14 years and miss him still today. Now my son has a Pug named Rudy after the famed Notre Dame movie. It's amazing how much your dogs take on the owners personalities.
