I'm getting a dog!!

[thrawn96]

Yup, I'm getting a pug. Its a little 8 week old puppy that is soooo cute. We put a down payment on her, but we're not bringing her home until next week cuz we're going on vacation. I'll make sure to post some pictures once i get some. We haven't thought of a name yet, so I'd be happy to take some suggestions.

[Quickbeam]

The names 'Grip', 'Fang' and 'Wolf' immediately suggest themselves. :)

[RKittle]

Here, Snaga! Fetch, Snaga!

or

Sit, Ghan, Sit! (short for Ghan-buri-ghan)

Both of these names are of characters that might have a 'pug' face.

A dog? One of those vile creatures that makes messes on sidewalks??? Aren't you satisified with your bird? :p

You said it's female, but as you haven't read LotR, I don't think Galadriel, Arwen, or Eowyn would immediately jump out at you ;) Maybe Denise (as in Richards, since you used to rave about her :p )

[arynetrek]

i can't see a pug as either Arwen, Galadriel, or Eowyn - maybe Beruthiel but that'd be better for a really "w"itchy cat (btw - how picky is the censor on this board?). or how about Ioreth?

aryne *

[RKittle]

I missed that dog is female. So here are some new suggestions:

Lobelia
Diz (isn't that the name of a female dwarf? I could be way off)
Ioerth (arynetrek said this one...it's pretty good)
Gollumina

[bmilder]

In the appendices it says that Thorin's sister is named Dis.

[noldo]

How about Ungoliant or Smaug?

I think they're both pretty uni-sex names. ;)

Maggot?

[Fat middle]

what about Shelob?

oh, no! she was a cat :p

[Eruve]

Thuringwethil

[thrawn96]

I should have mentioned the name does not have to be Tolkien related. :p

[noldo]

Oh. :|

Name it S****py or Scruffy or something like that then.

[Darth Tater]

How about "dog belonging to guy who'se five feet tall (or short)?" ;)

[Fat middle]

ouch! ;)

[thrawn96]

Here's a pic we took at the pet store the other day. Thats me holding the dog. We are picking the dog up today! :D

By the way, the tentative name for her, thought of by my sister, is Honey. :p I would appreciate it if someone thought of a better name quick.

Please change your signature, or do not use it at this board :p

[thrawn96]

better?

btw, this is my 100th post as thrawn96. :)

I don't think that it matters to stay true to gender when choosing a name for an animal, so I choose Gollum.....I mean just look at that thing. ;)

[Fat middle]

ouch, ouch, ouch!!! :p

[Darth Tater]

Looks like a manic deppressive creature to me ;)

[Eowyn, Lady of Rohan]

I got one, some of the names I suggest are:
Misty
Smokey
Pearl
Autumn

You really have to see it first.
