The Happy Puppy Handbook: Your Definitive Guide to Puppy Care and Early Training | 
So - we‘ve just reserved our first dog! A beautiful Red Fox Labrador. He was born on Saturday. So we have 8 weeks to come up with name ideas .......Seeing as he‘s my future reading buddy - bookish names would be good ..... any ideas?????????
CBee Ohhhhhh a PUPPY!!!! You will have so much fun 😁😁😁 4y
Mitch @CBee we‘ve never had a dog before! But the time feels right 🥰 4y
CBee @Mitch I‘ve had a few dogs, including one I got as a puppy, so I know a little 😉 If you need advice, ask away! 4y

Mitch @CBee we may we‘ll take you up on that! 4y
CBee @Mitch feel free! Happy to help. Puppies are hard work, but so fun. How‘s Bunky going to react, I wonder 🤔 4y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego Atticus & Bronn come to mind. 4y
Leftcoastzen Adorable!!want them all!🐶😀 4y
AmyG WHAT? Amazing!!!! I can‘t wait to see all the puppy pictures! Books? What are books? 😳 4y
AmyG Names- who are your favorite authors or characters? Perhaps one of those? 4y
squirrelbrain Oh, so cute! I‘m jealous! I love @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego ‘s idea of Atticus and, sticking with the same book, I also love Jem. 4y
KVanRead How sweet! Given he‘s RED Fox Lab, how bout Tin Tin? Or Arthur (King)? Or Ron (Weasley)? Or Albus? (Apparently Dumbledore was a redhead once upon a time.) 4y
KVanRead @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego @squirrelbrain I used to have a cat named Atticus.😸 4y
MsMelissa Puppies!!! I love the name Rufus for a dog, especially one with reddish colouring. Although I don‘t think there are any famous Rufus‘ in literature. I also love the Bronn suggestion from @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego 😊 4y
CBee Darcy! Harry! Willem or Jude (right, @AmyG???). 4y
DGRachel SQUEE!!!!!!! I am SO EXCITED FOR YOU! (Oh, and absolutely no help when it comes to names). 4y
Soubhiville Oh wow! Congratulations! You‘ll love being dog-parents. 😊💕 4y
Soubhiville How about Fitz? 4y
KVanRead I second Rufus @Book_Fiend_Melissa I love that name! 4y
julesG 😍 Congratulations! My not so serious contribution for a name: https://images.app.goo.gl/4us1aoGQX4vRBYBT7 4y
KVanRead Also, Winston! (Churchill was a redhead.) Sorry, I‘ll stop now.🤣 4y
MsMelissa I have another name to suggest - I seriously love coming up with dog names. Our dog is female (named Queen Eleanor, aka Ellie), but the male name we had picked out was Augustus, aka Gus. While not exactly literary, apparently the Augustan age of the Roman Empire was the golden age for Latin literature. @KVanRead 4y
TrishB Awwww 🐶❤️ some great suggestions here! Rufus is cool 👍🏻 4y
Heideschrampf Cutsie! My suggestion is THURSDAY, mrs next surely wouldn‘t mind the gender swap ;) 4y
Hooked_on_books Oh my goodness, they are so cute! 😍 I think Heathcliff would be good. 4y
BookNAround Oh! The puppy snuggles in your future!!! I have a Gatsby although she‘s a girl. We also had a Spenser (the author according to me and Spenser for Hire according to hubby). 4y
Revenge4bess Zeus? Apollo? (Rick Riordan) Harry( As in Harry Potter). 4y
Mitch @CBee yep - we‘re all kinda worries about that 🤔 4y
Mitch @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego love both of those - hadn‘t thought of Bronn - Samwell is on the shortlist! 4y
Mitch @Soubhiville great idea - adding it to the list 🥳 4y
CBee @Mitch here‘s hoping it‘s smooth sailing!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 4y
Mitch @Leftcoastzen All 10 of them! 🥳 4y
Mitch @AmyG indeed! I might be too tired from sleepless nights to read for a while! 4y
Mitch @squirrelbrain love Jem - adding it to the list! 4y
Mitch @KVanRead mmmmm... Albus👍🏼 4y
Mitch @Book_Fiend_Melissa 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 4y
Mitch @CBee willem or Jude ....😫🤣 4y
Mitch @DGRachel thank you - we felt due for some positive love 💓 4y
Mitch @julesG only 5!🤣 4y

Mitch @Book_Fiend_Melissa love that ♥️ 4y
Mitch @Heideschrampf 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 4y
Mitch @Hooked_on_books oh yeah - Heath.... adding it‘s to the list! 4y
Mitch @BookNAround 👍🏼 4y
Mitch @Revenge4bess 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 4y
CBee @Mitch I know, I know..... but that book wrecked my life! It‘s so powerful! But terribly sad. So maybe not those names 😂 Ooo, maybe Theo for Dr. Seuss! I‘m still thinking 😂 4y
AmyG @CBee Ha! Right? 4y
Gaylagal2 I'm in love with Jude. There all so cute! Ahhhh, you get to experience puppy breath! There is nothing better🐾❤️🐾 4y
LeahBergen Agatha Christie had a dog named Peter (and so did I! 😆😆). 4y
squirrelbrain @CBee @AmyG - Jude was my first thought too, but I don‘t think I could bear it ☹️ 4y
Mitch @LeahBergen 🤣👍🏼🤣 4y
Mitch @squirrelbrain I share that! 😱 4y
julesG You can always say that you walk 5 miles three times a day. 😜 4y
AmyG @sprainedbrain Too sad...too heartbreaking. A puppy needs a happier name. 4y
sprainedbrain @AmyG I don‘t think you meant that for me (I‘m terrible at naming pets so don‘t make suggestions for that 🤣) but now I‘m curious which name is too sad? 😉 4y
Mitch @sprainedbrain ‘Jude‘ from A Little Life! 4y
sprainedbrain @Mitch oh yes that is too sad for a puppy! But again, I‘m terrible at it. We have a female cat named Dean and male cat named... Kevin. 😳😂 4y
CBee @Mitch it‘s totally too sad. I do love the name Jude tho, always have 😁 But not named after ALL character for sure! 4y
AmyG @sprainedbrain Sorry. It was Jude as @mitch said. There are so many posts, and I replied early in the AM so got everyone mixed up. 🤣 4y
HonoraryGilmoreGirl Umm maybe Rhett from gone with the wind? 4y
Mitch @HonoraryGilmoreGirl 👍🏼 4y
