  1. I've got three dogs.
    Blissi = girl, big girl,
    Brawn = big'un
    Henry = big boy
    Guess I'm not so imaginative, HOWEVER, I also have 15 goats and 50 chickens, many names to keep straight.

  8. lol! I can barely remember all our animals' names on the farm, much less think up cute nicknames. But I sure did enjoy reading yours, though. Thanks for the laugh!

    ps And thanks for the comment you felt me: "Rojo was lucky to have you around to value, love and remember him. You remember this as your good deed in this lifetime; no matter what else happens, "one life has breathed easier because you have lived...that is to have succeeded."


    I can't even begin to tell you how much those words meant to me and helped me get through this terrible experience. Thank you.
