Santas and Duhram Reds
Well-known member
Fan of Boston Terriers myself. Try to come up with names that have to do with Boston. Our current one is Harvey after Harvard.
Yaers ago we had one named FritzSantas and Duhram Reds":2rwbzadh said:I don't know much about Dachshunds but if they are of German decent I would probably name one Wilhelm or Kaiser. Something like that. Maybe Hun or Atilla

What's your favorite dog name ? Have you got any traditions on how your animals are named and who gets to name them? Thanks in advance.

I called a friend who was a breeder and told her that I needed a puppy quick. she said I have a friend with a litter and they have one left.
after i burried Tana I loaded the wife in the truck and did not tell her anything until we drove the hundred miles and rolled up into the yard.
She immediatley picked up the pup and it was love at first sight for both.
I was nearly overcome with emotion a few minutes later when I had to write the check.
On the way home the puppy went to sleep in the wifes lap and she is talking about how she can not replace Tana......Bla bla bla. love her just as much bla bla bla..... alternately crying over Tana and Hugging the new pup.
she is all emotional and I am now broke and wondering if I had enough gas to get home.....
Finally I said that I am glad you are a bit happier and I knew I had to get you something to try to fill the void in your life but she sure cost more than Tana.
The wife immediately fires back with "But she is Worth It." At that time Cybil Shepherd was doing commercials for Loreal and winking at me thru the TV and telling me that it cost more but she is worth it.
right then and there I declared that the new pups name would be Loreal. we called her Lore.
Little Lore was the best natural cow dog I ever saw. She was born knowing more about working cows than I have learned in my whole life.
We lost Loreal a couple of years ago now. She died sleeping at the foot of the bed near my wife.

Duke was a very regal Doberman.
Nero was a Doberman that was one of the most friendly dogs you could find.
I don't want any more Dobermans.
We had a colored veterinarian that had a Dane X Boxer that was a great dog. He was black and his name was Howard. I admired that dog. When you saw them drive up it looked like two black men sitting up in that truck.
I later got a puppy that was Weimaraner X Boxer cross. He was black and I named him Howard and hoped he would turn out to be as good as the vet's dog. He did!!
I would give a lot to have another dog like him. But I'm afraid that was one of those once in a lifetime things. I know some may think I am crazy,and I have never denied it, but I look forward to seeing that dog again in heaven.
