I had a dog named Happy.
That is what I get for being asked what to name him when I was about 8 years old I guess.
The little guy looked like he was Happy to me.
Wow did that dog go through the wringer with me and my older brother. Great breed for that part of my life, an English Springer Spaniel.
I had a dog named Happy when I was in high school.
Unfortunately we had to leave him with my Aunt and Uncle when we were away on Vacation.
He managed to dig his way out from under the garage (stone floor) and came looking for us.
We never got him back and I never found out what happened to him.
Our dog is an ESS. She’s 16 now, but she’s been by my son’s side since the day we got her.
He’s a grown man now, and she’s still sleeping in his bed. Best friends forever.
We used to raise English Springer Spaniels - there is no better breed (in my opinion) - great with kids! We now have our last one - Rosie - who is 12 years old and cannot hear at all and can barely see - still wags her tail and we love her!!
I had a neighbor when I was a teenager, and their little boy named his dog “Job”. We wondered if he had plans to put it through a lot, or what.
