She was named by Guide Dogs for the Blind, and because they have to name over 800 dogs a year without any duplications, they come up with some doozies. Cabana's name has grown on us, and it seems too late to change it--but I like Mesa and Baily's names much better!Infrequent Flyershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01695917474916791473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7443358696117933918.post-43083729968306929302010-02-10T13:25:07.359-08:002010-02-10T13:25:07.359-08:00What a great story!!

Miss M. was originally named Jackie O. at the shelter. I thought she needed a name to match her face, like Gertrude, but we settled with a "rocker chick" name. Now she just answers to Monkey (I think her face looks like a gorilla), or to the sound of rustling food bags.Two Pitties in the Cityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04694420319336839807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7443358696117933918.post-71337703094873141652010-02-10T10:19:02.038-08:002010-02-10T10:19:02.038-08:00We named Mickey "Mickey" because my husb...We named Mickey "Mickey" because my husband & I met in Holland & in Holland they use the term "Mickey Mouse" to say something is silly. <br /><br />For Kayloo- the adoption society named her "Laloo" but I thought that was hard to say (read: difficult to yell in frustration). The woman who took her home for Christmas, did our home visit check & generally LOVED her was named "Kay" --?
