New Astro picture...and a great website.

I found this great website (Acrophonology - AcroPet) when I was just browsing around a little while ago. You enter your dog's name and it gives you the meaning of it/personality of the name. It's so cute...and actually pretty accurate, for my furkids at least. Here is what it said for my dogs:

Astro: You have a playful, independent pet who hates to be fenced in. Your pet is sexually oriented, clever, and definitely knows how to go after what he/she wants. This is a shy, affectionate animal with a gentle soul. Your pet is best suited to a tension-free enviornment. This animal loves a challenge, takes direction well and will definitely be the 'leader of the pack'. Your pet has a highly developed sixth sense, especially when it comes to home and family. This animal is very tenacious and intensely loyal.

Lexie: Yours is a very sociable, loving pet who needs to be around other pets and humans. Your pet is certainly never dull. You may find this animal has a dualistic nature being very communicative one minute and sullen the next. This animal is fun to watch and impossible to figure out. You'll never know what your pet will be into from one moment to the next. This animal has a pleasant disposition and enjoys the company of pets of the opposite sex. Your pet is excitable and hyperactive and may experience nervous disorders if not given the freedom to release this nervous energy.

Also....I attached a picture of Astro...my camera and computer were nice for a second, just long enough to sneak a photo on. lol. Let's just hope it's the right one...lol. Enjoy.

Wow.. Astro looks like a completely different dog in the photo you attached.

I'm going to check out the site right now.

Simba:
Yours is a very resourceful animal who is basically a loner and has a strong sense of responsiblilty. This animal has a pleasant disposition and enjoys the company of pets of the opposite sex. Your pet is exceptionally loyal and affectionate. You won't have to worry about this pet straying far from home. Your pet is sweet and loving, enjoys being stroked, and definitely prefers luxury to a spartan life. Your pet has a real need for adventure and has very little fear, so keep an eye on this one!

Fits Simba!


Nala:
Your pet is a responsive, bright animal and one of the easiest to train, because he/she feels that pleasing you and being of service is all important. Your pet has a real need for adventure and has very little fear, so keep an eye on this one! This is a tolerant and affectionate animal who cares about his/her appearance and prefers beautiful surroundings. Your pet has an aggressive streak; - obedience is not this pet's strong point.

Doesn't fit Nala, at all.

Here's what it said about Ruby:
Ruby: This pet is bright, active, learns quickly, and generally has a good disposition. This animal has a gregarious nature, enjoys people, and seems to be more concerned with his/her freedom needs than your wishes or desires.

Nope, this is NOT Timber lol. Although most of it fits her, she does great with female dogs AND male dogs, and she is not the leader of the pack. She is very submissive. She runs from challanges. She also doesn't enjoy a "luxury" life. She enjoys roughin' and toughin' it! :D

This doesn't really fit Cleo at all. I guess she cares about her appearance (she's a cat, don't they all;)), and she's pretty loyal.

As for my dogs and their names:
Jack: You have a strong, independent, adventurous pet who is filled with wanderlust. Your pet has a real need for adventure and has very little fear, so keep an eye on this one!

Pretty close especially about being a 'people' animal.

This animal loves a challenge, takes direction well and will definitely be the 'leader of the pack'. This never forgets a hurt and will wait patiently for the right time to get even

Don't see Taggert as leader of the pack. He does tend to get even for any hurt done him. He isn't very obedient either. However he does have a real need for adventure and never hesitates to run headlong into one.

Dazzi Mae: You have a loyal, faithful pet whose world revolves around family. Being very sensitive, your pet will retreat when his/her feelings are hurt. Your pet has a real need for adventure and has very little fear, so keep an eye on this one! This is a sensitive, psychic animal who intuitively responds to your feelings and moods. Your pet's personality changes quickly being loving one minute and grumpy the next. This animal has a pleasant disposition and enjoys the company of pets of the opposite sex.
(Mae)Your pet would rather be home than anywhere else in the world. His/her strong parenting instinct makes for an ideal breeding animal. Your pet has an aggressive streak; - obedience is not this pet's strong point. Your pet is certainly never dull. You may find this animal has a dualistic nature being very communicative one minute and sullen the next.

We have always called Dazzi, Dazzi Mae and interestingly enough the Mae part says alot more about her personality. She definitely had strong parenting instincts as she will attack any dog that seems to be a threat to one of her babies (Taggert, Snoopy, Oreo). and she does have an aggressive streak however she is very obedient

Oreo:
Your animal is extremely sensitive, obstinate and very territorial when it comes to his/her home. This animal loves a challenge, takes direction well and will definitely be the 'leader of the pack'.

I don't see Snoopy as a loner. He loves to be around people and other dogs but other than that it is pretty close.

Jesse:

You have a strong, independent, adventurous pet who is filled with wanderlust. Your pet is certainly never dull. You may find this animal has a dualistic nature being very communicative one minute and sullen the next. Your pet is sexually oriented, clever, and definitely knows how to go after what he/she wants.
