A friend of mine is fostering 5 little pups who were abandoned at a vet's office. There are 4 females and 1 male. She wants to give them temporary names and would like to name them as a group. So far, we've thought of Prince and 4 of the Disney Princess names, Rhett and 4 of the Gone With the Wind females, the Scooby Doo Gang, the golden girls...Stan, and the 4 ladies, and Lou and 4 of the Mary Tyler Moore characters. Do any of you have any ideas? She said they seem to sometimes get adopted in multiples if their names are similar (although I'm sure they are renamed after adoption). Anyway, thanks for the help!!!!!

I knew I could count on the creative and imaginative minds of Pet Talkers!!! Thanks!!! I really don't know....I have only seen pictures. They are about 6-7 weeks old....Most are black and white...with a face a little like a springer with the white streak up the forehead, but they aren't springers or border collies I don't think....I really don't know....just little mixed breeds....very cute. She has 3 rescue Boxers (she used to do only boxer rescue but has decided to do all kinds), 2 fosters who are around 3 months old, and then these pups.....

Made me giggle, too!!! Thanks to everyone for your suggestions....I've been sending her your ideas, but I haven't heard what she has finally decided on. Last time I heard, her husband was liking the Scooby Doo Gang, but I don't know!! I just hope they find a home....as cute as they are, I'm sure they will!

This morning in bed I was thinking of this thread. I thought of beer related names:
Amber
Sierra
Stella
Guinness
Sam
More beer names: Harp, Victoria, Amstel, Dixie, Mickey, Miller, Bud
Or music related (instrument brands):
Fender
Carvin
Taylor
Peavey
Martin
Gibson
Marshall
Can you tell what is popular in my house? Music and beer. I'll pass on the beer, but Bruce brews his own.

I definitely see that in most of them....there is one who is light....Anyway.......she said she named them the Spice Puppies.....Ginger, Clove, Nutmeg, Cinnamon and Spice. Thought I would let you know!! Thanks again for the help!

Aww, I feel honored! :)
We always say I have the "naming gene" as everything gets a name, or tells me its name. The gene obviously skipped my nephew, who numbered his betta fish!
