Does you dog have a song?

Just don't argue about it openly, argue as much as you want on PMs.

and why didn't YOU put your post in a pm? and I know you don't mean nick naming my Layla.

no HER making up her own private nickname for Layla, she doesn't need to tell anyone about it. Just so that in her mind, the two Laylas will be different, and one wouldn't make her feel sad for the other.

Thanks Jessica, I give up. Laylas first thread introducing her got turned to crap also. (Karen did clean it up) I guess Layla doesn't belong on Pet Talk. This thread wasn't even about her, it was about songs.

Layla has every right to be on Pet Talk! I'm not invalidating anyone's feelings here but come ON. This is supposed to be a thread for people to talk about how much their pets mean to them and comments like the one Suki made just don't need to be said. I'm sorry if the name hurts you but that's life, sometimes things hurt. You don't need to make it worse by adding to the fuel and lets just stop this and let that kind of stuff go!

Layla definitely belongs on PET TALK! It makes her seem not welcome to make comments like that, and they just aren't needed. It was 7 years ago, don't make someone else feel bad over THEIR pet because you feel bad over one of your own!

Penny's is, of course, Penny Lane by the Beatles. This is my ring on my cell phone lol.
And, Daisy, hmmm, i guess she doesn't have one.

well now I just feel miserable knowing I uspet you so much. Why didn't you say anything in the first thread I annoyed you?

And my dog already has a nickname.

Just so you know, like I told you in a pm, I have loved the name Layla for a very long time. Eric Clapton co-wrote and sang it as Derek and the Dominoes back in 1970. I was a teenager, you were probably not even born. Why would I want to hear how much the name upsets you? If it does upset you maybe you could put me on ignore and never have to see or hear the name from me again.

ok everyone, more songs....

[cyber-sibes]

ok everyone, more songs....

YES!

I sing "You are my sunshine" to Sherman all the time, he's my sunshine boy. And Star, well, sometimes I greet her with "Good morning Starshine" - remember that one? It was from "Hair".

My RB Rosie's song was "Rosie " by Tom Waits. I used to sing it to her she loved it. Dukedogsmon was so kind to find the words for me:

Well I'm sitting on a windowsill, blowing my horn
Nobody's up except the moon and me,
And a lazy old tomcat on a midnight spree
All that you left me was a melody.
Rosie, why do you evade? Rosie, how can I persuade? Rosie...

And the moon's all up, full and big, apricot tips in an indigo sky,
And I've been loving you, Rosie, since the day I was born
And I'll love you, Rosie 'til the day I die.
Rosie, why do you evade? Rosie, how can I persuade? Rosie...

Rosie, why do you evade? Rosie, how can I persuade? Rosie...

And I'm sitting on a windowsill, blowing my horn
Nobody's up except the moon and me,
And a lazy old tomcat on a midnight spree
All that you left me was a melody.
Rosie, why do you evade? Rosie, how can I persuade? Rosie...

Layla DOES belong on pet talk, Annette! and well said, Vela!

I think this has gone too far. Annette. Layla does belong on PT. She is lovely and delightful and brought so much happiness into your life. You needed her and she needed you and PT needs you both.

As for all this nonsense about not being able to read a thread because a certain name is there and then post rudely because of that is just not right. It is just so unfair to do this to someone elses threads and to make them feel like they don't belong because they happen to have a dog by the same name. Like others have said I understand it is upsetting but upsetting to the point of ruining a happy thread for someone else is just uncalled for. If you cannot bear to see the name don't read the thread and don't post things that are going to upset someone else. I know it has been said before about being angry. DON'T POST ANGRY well I think it should go the same way in this instance DON'T POST UPSET!! Read and re-read your post when you have calmed and if it upsets you anew then do not post. Period.

Layla is a doll and she deserves PT time. I think maybe Karen should be brought into the matter to see if things can be resolved about this.

Sorry but I just want you to know that we want Layla here!!
