Well, it’s finally decided.
We wrote all of the names down and made a short list of four names.
Misty
Milly
Fizz
AliThere are 4 of us, so we had 2 votes each and the top 2 were then selected for the shortlist.
Votes cast.
Misty .. 3
Milly .. 3
Fizz .. 1
Ali .. 1That left Milly and Misty. It was decided that any split decision should be decided by a coin toss.
Heads = Milly
Tails = MistyHeads came up so the dog is called .. MILLY
So, that’s it. Thanks to everyone who came up with ideas. At the end of it Jilly was right, anything that ends with y.
Buy a muzzle for the border and socailize and get her spayed as soon as you can , they are agreesive little swines, they are also a pain as they can get down rabbit holes and need shed loads of exercise. We have allot around my area, they are a royal pain trying eat every dog they see. as far as i am concerned they are a dangerous breed and should be banned.
get a dap diffuser to plug into whichever room she is going to be kept in; crate train her if you can [best thing I ever did with my latest dog, having been advised to do so for years with previous dogs and not doing so] and expect her to be sick all over the car when you bring her home.
oh, and get her identichipped a.s.a.p. something else I have never done in the past… a friend of mine had her two labradors stolen, but the people that are stealing dogs won’t pass them on if they’re identichipped..and definately get her spayed…my last whippet almost died of pyometra, and although she survived she developed pancreatitis afterwards….
You could stand outside and practice calling different names out loud which is what you’ll be doing for many years to come…….
I have enjoyed this so much
and it beats just having the one dog
you can have a different breed each night

My worshipping of Mammon – that seductive but oh so false God – has resulted in a slightly-foxed Rupert and his chums leaving Nutwood for e-bayland
The pangs, the moist-eyed joy, the emptiness on reading those joyful tales, and wondering at the never-world artwork of Mr Bestall for the very last time
the past…feck…

Did you get a lot for them?
As with all ’50s and ’60s memorabilia condition is paramount. Being a careful, acquisitive and near obsessively tidy child my Rupert Annuals along with Dinkys, Corgis, and Puffins remained pristine. ‘As new’ and ‘near mint’ in trader-jargon. So yes flogging the childhood silver keeps the ISA topped up.
When will that rainy day arrive?
my mum threw away almost all of my books and toys when I left home…..I treasure the ones that remain and it has left me with an inability to throw things away…..I spent years searching through car boot sales and second hand book shops for a copy of Ghost Horse by Joseph E Chipperfield…I eventually got a copy through a book search on the internet, and somehow a lot of my raison d’etre seems to have left me…at least I’m still searching for a copy of Ned the Lonely Donkey, but I’ll stick to the car boot and shop route..ebay makes it too easy…I shall now dig out me Rupert book to read whilst I watch the Olympics…..
