[HairOfTheDog]

I never said Logan's registered name out loud, and I was almost too embarrassed to show him. :~D

I got him as an adult, so he was already named.

My breeder had a list of names for the pups in the litter -- I had to choose one from the list.

The remaining alternatives were Lady Godiva and Chocolate Cheese . . . ugggh!

If I had had the naming of her, I was thinking about naming her after one of the Furies - Alecto ("unceasing"), Megaera ("the jealous"), and Tisiphone ("avenging") - or one of the Harpies - Aello, the breaking storm (Podarge - fleet of foot) or Celaeno, whose wings darken the sky before a storm (Ocypete - swift of wing).

I can just imagine the "gate" calling THOSE names out to the scorekeeper and timer! (I worked gate pretty much continually through the last trial.)
