New puppy born only 2 days ago...already thinking of names for this brindle boy!

[tiffnco]

Hi everyone,

I'm fairly new to this board (yup, already posted my introductions!) and wasn't posting because I was still recovering from the loss of our girl, Ripley.

We rescued a white boxer from our local boxer rescue and he tried to kill the cat on several occasions. Anyway, as difficult as it was, we had to take him back. Now Rufus, our 3-year old (he's the one in the avatar), needs a playmate. We've been in contact with a breeder and decided today to purchase one of the new pups. Born less than 48 hours ago! I'm really excited! It's been quiet around here and a new puppy will liven things up (understatement, I'm sure!)

Anyway, I've only had fawns and this guy is a brindle. Looks like he'll have a small bit of flash...but how much is yet to be determined since they change so much in the beginning.

DH and I have been tossing names around and can't seem to come up with anything clever or cute. Paco is as close as we've come...and I'm not crazy about that name.

I'd like something that rolls of the tounge and goes well with Rufus. Also, our cat's name is Abby...so I suppose we tend to lean toward people-type names.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Tiffany

So sorry to hear about Ripley.

Here's a link for names..if you can't find one here..then there is NO name out there for you

Best of luck with your newborn baby. I recently got two pups..and I cannot tell you how much they are filling the whole that my Blizzy left! Maybe your new baby along with Rufus can heal your broken heart too!

I just caught your last thread. Congrats on the new pup...I hope the next 6-8 weeks goes by quickly for you guys. That should give you plenty of time to come up with a good name. How about Bruts and Rufus. I know there are a lot of Brutus' but it i think it's cute with Rufus. I am sure others will start posting a variety of names...

Brutus is cute...but it won't work for us this time around because that's Rufus' dad's name. But can I say I love how Tank and Dozer work together!

What about Bongo? Sometimes I"m not the best on names. If the breeder lets you stop by for visits you might be able to see your babies personality come thru. Maybe he will be a Rowdy or a Ruckus, both would be cute with Rufus. I liked Brutus too though, too bad it doesn't work.

I like the name Rebel, that was Zeb's dad's name.

Tiff -

Sorry to hear that JD didn't work out. Glad to hear you are getting a puppy. Names - do you want to stay with R. You could go with Ryder. Or Royce. So exciting. I can't wait to see pictures.

I hope the next few weeks fly by for you.
I think that you should see what the new additions personality is like first.
