What Was Your Dog's Original Name?

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

Tango was Flash

Star and Wilbur were the names we adopted them with. We thought briefly about changing Star to Wiley ('cause she's my little Coyote!) but she already responded to Star and I like that name better. Wilbur just....fits. He was named after the piggie in Charlotte's web by the rescue, his sister was Charlotte.

Most of them I don't know what their names were, I just kept their shelter names but:

Earle's name was Flower. During the time he was with his momma dog, he ate absolutely every speck of color in her owner's yard. He had a particular fondness for flowers. He still enjoys a good snack of wildflowers.

Heyoka's shelter name was Nanook, which durn near every rescue malamute I've ever met has been called at some point in their life!

Deuce's name was Bandit. I already had a Bandit so that was just confusing!

Kayleigh's name was Cowley. I hated it, still hate it, despite the fact that it's actually the name of a lovely little creek near my house.

Muskwa's name for the first five months of his life was "HEY YOU NO"...Stuart couldn't decide on a name!

Daisy's name was Tulip, but her owner likes Daisies better!
