We were waiting for Daisy to be old enough to bring home so I started searching for names on the internet. Since she is a white chihuahua with very light cream colored spots, I wanted something to fit her color if I could think of a good one. I considered Vanilla(Nilla for short), Sugar, Cream, and a million others. Finally, I thought some daisies are white and she is as precious as a little Daisy so that's what I stayed with. She is so delicate and petite that her name just fits her perfectly. Delilah already had her name when we adopted her. She had a twin brother and her original family named them Samson and Delilah. Unfortunately, Samson was killed by a car and is no longer with us. What a shame, I would love to have been able to adopt both of them!! Her original human Dad had to go to a nursing home so he couldn't keep her so we were lucky enough to get her. He called her Delilah Peanuts for some unknown reason. I dropped the "Peanuts" part of her name right after we brought her home. It wasn't long until I offered her a peanut one day and then I discovered where that name came from. She loves peanuts!! Once again, she is Delilah Peanuts!
