[QUOTE="Ozhorse, post: 1164608, member: 18575"] I was given a young short hair Border Collie bitch from very good cattle working lines. She is a tough little thing, quite vocal with a tendancy to want to scrap with other dogs and a ton of force on stock and very intense, with eye, but not at all sticky. She does not mind a good chew if they dont move enough either. She knows how to hold sheep together as well but getting her to stop wool classing may be a challenge. I am absolutely,completely hopeless at naming anything, as a kid I had a dog named Doggy, a cat called Pussy, and a pet rat called ratsy. OK, so I need help... I just realised now I come to start working with her that the name she came with, and that I have called her for months, has the same vowel sounds as the vocal commands I will use at a distance (and I cant whistle loud). I need a name that has as few sylables as possible. I need to keep away from "A" and "E" (as in "back" "here" and "stay" and "sit" "steady") "U" sounds are good, "Oo" or O sounds could work too. Thanks for your ideas [/QUOTE]
