It occurs to me: Change new dog's name to "C'mere"

8 months old. Had a different name before the 2 weeks I've had him. So I don't know whether he responded to the previous name. So far, he doesn't to "Lucky" that I gave him, but does *immediately* to C'mere.

So... thinking, thinking...


Oh, and my two elderly babes (12 and 10 yrs old) are totally depressed. A friend who added on a third to her two said it took seven months for the three of them to be fine together.

One of our 4 cats has 2 middle names - Nestle' Stop That!

I have purchased just about every scratching device on the market, to no avail. He prefers to scratch on the oak trim around the windows, and the bottom of all the wooden doors, so we are always saying, "Nestle'! STOP THAT!"

Rover was the cat. In later years we had Big Guy (cat) and Girlfriend (dog).

Also my uncle had a hunting dog everyone assumed was named G@d D@mn Son of a B----. He was not a very good hunting dog.
