Naming a Dog
We’re still thinking about getting a dog. We really want one, but one thing after another has forced the actual procurement back week after week after week. The other day, Cowgrit contacted me through instant messenger with a link to some puppy pictures. Then we started talking about names for a new dog.

Our first dog’s name was Geordi — from Geordi La Forge on Star Trek: The Next Generation. We were both STTNG fans, and we both liked the name. For this time, though, it seems we don’t have a commonly-liked source to pull from.

go to the pound and get your pup. better yet, get an older dog. they are just as good as if not better than from a breeder. not to mention the breeder will not have a problem selling the dogs. go give a great dog a chance….roger is a pound puppy, and he is a great dog and you know it. dont go with the breeder…
I agree with your bro…there is this animal shelter I volunteered at and all the puppies there were the greatest…and they had all kinds, small and big…
As for names…if you get a girl dog, call her Mia…since you both liked that movie…but if its a boy you should call it Optimus
Mia. LOL! He will never be able to live that down will he.
