  • Rescue Number... (edit)


    number...

    number...

    oh h e double toothpicks, I have forgotten what number this is,
    but she is on her way home.



    She looks as though she could be Pecos Bill's little sister. 
    The rescue called her Tiny, but of course we will need to remedy that with a proper Watering Hole Ranch name.

    Let me hear your best wild west names!

    (edit) You all have come up with some fun names, well and some of them are a bit greenhornish.  But, that's why I love you.  Anyway, when @chronic_masticator offered Coyote Gypsy, I was completely smitten.  And when our new little varmint started howling with a quirk, that was confirmation enough for me.  Coyote it is.  Our family dog of 16 years was named Gypsy, so we will just call her Coyote. Thanks Amanda!

    Just a reminder on the names of the rest of the pack.
    Boomer Swooner, airdale
    Bella Starr, hound/pit mix
    Cactus Jack, chihuahua mix
    Pecos Bill, chihuahua/rat terrier mix
    Sadie, border terrier
    Josey, yorkie/chihuahua mix
    Yosemite Sami, yorkie/chihuahua mix
    Annie Oakley, cairn terrier
    Calamity Jane, cairn terrier
    and now, Coyote, jack russell/rat terrier mix

    Coyote's personality is sweet, light, bouncy. She's attentive, considering she is somewhere new.  Right now, she is getting to know Jack, Josey and Sami.  Cactus Jack is always the first to be introduced to the latest addition.  He's the Big Enchilada around here, and for good reason.  He has a very balanced spirit with the pack.  With new peoples, not so much.

    Thank you for all the ideas, but most of all, thank you for not reminding me I am the crazy dog lady.  I hear that if you give it a name and have a business card, they don't send you to the insane asylum.  Since the name of our little town means Barking Waters, I hereby crown thee, Barking Waters Dog Refuge.

    Now to order those business cards before the men with white jackets arrive.
