So… I may finally get my other dog.. name suggestion?

Long story short my boyfriend and I came across a beautiful and perfect rescue for our home and he finally agreed to my getting another dog. So this dog may be mine unless she gets adopted by someone else before I can get her but I am calmly (well calm in a panicked way lol) leaving that up to fate.

And yes… I am aware I may never get my German Shepherd…. But everyone including me knew I’d end up with another rescue lol I’m just too sensitive I guess.

So… I need a name… if she was a boy id have a few including Dexter, Hannibal, Kruger considering that my boyfriend and I are real horror movie/show/book nuts… but when it comes to a girl… I’m clueless!!

This pichure absolutely does not do her justice…. She is actually one of the most beautiful dogs I have ever seen and I would love to name her Bella… but that’s so common for a dog, I’m a weird and unique person I like it that way.

I was also thinking Gaea, meaning Mother Earth but my boyfriend hates that. So we thought Roxy since it would go with the other animals, or even Nibbles because it’s such a cute name… but nothing really stands out for me…

I really like the name Kruger though lol my friend said to name her that but use a pink collar so everyone knows she’s a girl lol… but she’s too pretty!

So ya…. An hour after I told you this was a short story…. Lol… here is her pic.

Ohhhh what great names!! Thanks guys. I really liked Tasha but my bf said no since that’s the name of the dog we were going to rescue previously and wanted something brand new.

I’m now thinking of something Hebrew like Adira, or Navaah meaning Gentle and Beautiful.

Not sure though!! Funny, I have sooooo many names for a male, but when it comes to females I’m totally lost.

Hi All,

Thanks again so much for the names for this beauty (They say she is a lab/shep, but I’m pretty sure she has Rottie in her)… unfortunately the SCPA screwed me over to say the least. I had called about a month ago for that senior I wanted to adopt and asked if I could put a dog on hold for the night in order to get things together… they said no, under no circumstances will they do that… I asked even if I pay in full… still the answer was no, under any circumstances.

The day I was going to adopt I confirm that on the website… it said no, they will not hold. I went in that day to buy her (after buying hundreds of dollars worth of stuff, taking vacation days I can’t afford since I haven’t seen my family in 6 months, setting up training, etc) I went in and they told me she was on hold for another couple… I told them what was told to me and they didn’t even say anything, just stared at me. Like seriously… just silently stared at me.

I was so upset that night… but I can’t even say anything… how do you complain to a charity Lol they do more in one week then I will in my lifetime to save animals… I have to respect that and learn from it if I find a new dog. Learn to be more agressive i guess and demand what i want.

Anyway, thanks again so much… we had decided on Navaah, maybe the next one =) I’m happy to know at least my boyfriend is open to find a new dog as long as she/he fits in with our zoo.

I’ve actually adopted 3 animals there and have been a regular volunteer for about three years now. I have casual, acquaintance type relationships with the workers for these three years. I have participated in a few of the shelter events. They know me well enough. I really think that they just have too much to do and it causes them to become very unorganized. At least from what I have seen. I’m pretty sure they didn’t know the couple either since when we went to go see her all the workers thought the other couple didn’t have their application submitted yet.

I really think it was all a misunderstanding, apparently there isn’t even a man that works there that is supposed to be talking about adoptions… I spoke to a man. So many things went wrong, so I guess it really wasn’t meant to be. I guess I have to wait patiently for my next best friend to come into my life… I just hope its sooner then later!
