She is beautiful! Whereever did you get the idea that she was ugly?

I am, however, coming up empty on possible names. I agree, that as an Australian breed, Sheila would be a great name for her. Now, considering her potential employment as the Scourge of Armadillos, "Dilly" came to mind. And she does seem to be a real dilly of a dog.

Digger. No, no, man. I was callin' my dog. ;)

Beauty

Best armadillo chaser I ever had was named Sparky. He would harry them until they stuck their head in a hole, then hold them by the tail till I got there with the shotgun. As soon as I grabbed the tail, he'd let go and back off. *whump* is the sound a .410 shotgun makes in an armadillo-filled hole in the ground.

My granddaddy named all the dogs. They were all Lady, Sparky, Sugarboy, Shep....you know, "dog" names. The first time I heard of a dog with a person's name, I thought it was hilarious. Now the so-called "dog" names sound wrong.

...how 'bout Otis

Sheila is at top of the list for now. Because it's Australian slang for girl, lady. Along with bird, I think.

I think Sheila is the best pick so far.

And for the rabid Tonchi, I got an email from my mom with some animal rescue pics on it, and posted them to my webpage.

I am not rabid, I get my vaccinations on time ;)

this dog will enjoy warding off armadillos as much as we enjoy dwelling in the Cellar.... I had a good varmit dog one time named:

TRIXIE

I know two people who have heelers named BLUE.

Anyway good luck with her.

Wolf you win the name the mutt deal, for the reasons I posted above. She's a little skidish today and poor as a church mouse. But I can fix that. She's found the water and food. And Shelia isn't far from Stella. Really I don't think dogs get to carried away w/their names anyway. Just your tone of voice when you scream at'em. "But the bitch is ugly." and ya can't wash it off. Like me :lol: Had no idea that we would get PETA involved in a flapping dogs name, what a ride bb

BTW, you got a night in the county jail, Busterb? How did that happen??????

"ya" want the long or short?

Oh, heck, I want all the juicey details you're willing to divulge! :yum:

Well I had been trying to clean up my yard for days. A guy I know came by with a bunch of hands" Be PC now" from fema and cleaned up my yard. So I told him to pick the best hands and I would grill sausage for them when they knocked off. I went and got 27 bucks worth of sausage and some beer. No one showed up, so I went for ice. At this time was no power here. Anyway I, like a dumb ass carried a beer with me. And got stuck for OC and DUI by city. I got away clean on city, have to go to AA for 6 meetings but still waiting on state. I tried to get the cop not to swip the damn thing till we talked to some folks. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. :wstupid:
