Dog Names

MY NAME IS NOT A POPULAR DOG NAME?

Last blog was about people names and how the name Liam has broken through to the top ten.  We also explained how back in the olden days, Liam was most often a pet name. Don't know how olden is olden.

Well there is also a top dog name list. Interesting that some dog names also make the people list, like Chloe.  Not Liam though. Liam is nowhere to be found on the dog name list.  At least the top 25. 

What do you think is the most popular dog name?   

Wrong.  

I thought it was Buddy also.  

Or Sadie, or Max, or Molly.  

They are all there.  

Not at #1.   

No.  

Most popular is Bella

See link for photos and all 25 if you wish.

Liam is a trending human name at #4.  Liam the dog is okay with that because he really believes he is part of the human pack.  He no longer revels in doggy playgroup at his  Best In Show Pet Resort. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Best-In-Show-Pet-Resort/128011823323

He looks at the other dogs and as quick as he can climbs atop the highest piece of apparatus to avoid them.  After a stay at Doggy Day Care, his best mark on his report card is always in the category of "lounging with staff."  He loves all the people at Best in Show and would rather hang with them.  He would prefer the other dogs stay home.  What happened to my Leo party dog?   He now takes after Daddy Paul. Loves football watched from the couch, squirreling on the evening walk, falling asleep watching SNL.  Ah!  Bliss.

This year was the first we did not attend the Annual Holiday Party at Best in Show Pet Resort.  Granted, for the first time there was a party entrance fee charge.  The money targeted for charity.  That is not why we bypassed. We give to this charity anyway.  The reason is that Liam is no longer a party animal.  All the perks from the party would be unappreciated by our little boy Liam.   Liam will not pose with Santa. Liam creates havoc in the photo room trying to escape.  He will not wear a hat, antlers, scarf or sweater. Forget the reindeer games.  Who wants a party pooper?  Literally also.

Liam really thinks he is a person.   My mother always said, "he is his own person."

PROTECTING AUNT BARB'S GIFT

A NEW PLAYMATE FROM AUNT SUZY

He receives Holiday cards and gifts from the human pack.   Liam has many human Aunts and Uncles who gift him and write to him.  He sends out Holiday cards- or more accurately his name is included with our names.
However, I cannot forget his penpals, canine and feline with whom he exchanges greetings, though those are mostly just by email.  Loving licks to all.

NO TREATS IN STOCKING, YET

Hope all our readers are healthy and enjoying the season.  And taking a nap and resting.

HOLIDAY TIME IS TIRING

Woof, Woof
