Teddy looked just like a stuffed teddybear when she was a pup. Yotie is short for Violet's Wiley Coyote, as she was (and still is) willful and wiley. Bitsey was cute and so small, the name fit her. We adopted an older cocker who was so happy to have a family she didn't mind being called Black Dog for her final years. Her name will come. Could be Sister, Diamond Lil (after seeing your vet bills).

For instance, if this is the first litter from your kennel name, the names will all begin with the letter A. Second litter will be names with B, etc, until the alphabet is gone through and one begins again at A. Having said that, I would submit Mallory for her. Mallory is German meaning: War Counselor. Murph and Mal, sounds melodic. Then again, Murphy hardly needs a war counselor.....Julhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17393501251032635028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-26986822508469887232013-11-24T14:48:37.301-06:002013-11-24T14:48:37.301-06:00I favor Millie.
