TCP, so sorry to hear of the loss of your dog, Bailey! Its so hard to give up a loving, faithful friend and the best friend we can have is our dog. You were asking for manly-like names and I have a few suggestions. My last Sheltie, even though she was female was named Cagney. We got her from a family when she was a puppy. The couple had one little child and was expecting the second and felt they couldn't handle a growing playful puppy.

I didn't ask but wondered why the name Cagney. Then I thought perhaps Cagney and Lacey, but I couldn't get James Cagney out of my mind either. So Cagney would be a good name for a male even though our female had the name!

A few others Lewis or Louie, Charles or Charlie and I like Spencer for a male dog. These are but a few I thought of and if I think of anymore, I will tell you! Do you like Sam?

I am so sorry for the loss of your dog!

Torey the Dog passed on Feb 11th, just over a month ago.

How about “Spike” or “Zeke” for the Dobie? Those are pretty “Manly” names. :-)

Hi, Billie, Thanks soooooo much for writing in response to Lindy and d’Ogee’s status. They have reached the age that whatever goes wrong, they cannot be put under for surgery or even to have their teeth cleaned anymore because it is too risky at their age. It’s at the point to maintain them, till.
This IS extremely difficult. A time in their lives that I dread, but you gotta do what you gotta do-out of Love for them.( I cry too!) Thank you!!!!

We had a border collie in our family for several years and it was the only dog we had that got hit by a car. I will have to agree it was the smartest dog we've ever had and just so loving and precious. His name was Topper.

We kept him in a pen when we both were at work and our first son was in school. He would get loose occasionally and she knew the way from our house to my mother's house. I was working at the Courthouse at that time and a neighbor called and said "I so hate to call you at work and tell you this, but I think your dog has been killed by a car. She told me where, etc. and I left work crying, got in touch with hubby and we went up there and yes, it was him.

She was so precious!! Each time we lost one, it was the same deep hurt. Mine looked like your pic except she was blacker in the face!

Torey The Dog had figured out every single gate and lock we had on our yard in Boston.

Finally we resorted to an Electric Invisible Fence.

I buried the wire a foot underground under the fence around the entire perimeter, and then put a collar on Torey The Dog so that if she attempted to cross the perimeter, she would get a shock from the collar.

Apparently Torey The Dog figured out that Electricity needs a Complete Circuit to work.

Enduring constant shocks from the collar, she dug up the wire, and severed it, thus disabling the collar, so she could continue digging her escape tunnel in peace.

Torey was smart...LOL!

My son has one of those electrical fences for his 2 small dogs and they have never left the yard. There is a lot of traffic where they live and they both would have been dead by now if it wasn’t for the fence!!

Great song and certainly colorful graphic. POOR dogs!LOL! Many years ago Zsa Zsa Gabor dyed her poodle pink that matched her pink Cadalliac. That was quite a sight!
