Dont worry abou thte name problem, pick anything you'd like.
When Igot my great dane, her name was Roxy, we changed it to Baby, and she only listens to that name now.

We kept Angel's name because we didn't know if she would stay with us furever. When it came to adopting her we already thought of her as Angel. She now, after five weeks, comes to a long list of names that aren't worth listing but I can assure you that most of them would sound nothing like Angel! She is four years old.

Same here, When I got my pup from the shelter his name was 'Spike' ugh....i had to change it right away. His name is Camen now.

Well all we got "STEWIE" and he is awesome, I decided to keep the name, hey what's in a name any ways. He is so wonderful needs lots of love and attention.

He loves being out here in the woods running and playing, we are thinking about an electronic fence any idea? Are the good or bad I don't want to tie him up, and I don't want him running into the woods. We have a swamp near us, and the dogs love going there.


Any thoughts!

I've never been a fan of electric fences, some dogs just clench their teeth and run through, I also hate dogs tied on chains...my suggestion would be a regular ol' fence if you can, it really is worth the time and money to put it in.

Oh and congrats to your new family member, I love the name Stewie!!

I think Stewie is a great name! But if you really dislike it, you could change it no problems. I adopted Bella when she was about four years old and Bo when he was one, and they learned their names fast!
