siobha9 Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 We got a new Yorkshire Terrier puppy almost a week ago, and so far are completely unable to settle on a name. Do any of you have any ideas? At the minute the poor baby is called The Dot owing to her tiny tiny size.
Laurie Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 Oh my gosh, how CUTE! I love the name Daisy for a girl dog. This one doesn't look like a Daisy, though. How about Penelope? You could call her Penny for short. Or Chloe? That's nice and refined. She looks sort of refined. My son says Chi Chi. But that sounds like a Chihuahua to me... Anyway she's adorable...good luck naming her!
siobha9 Posted November 14, 2007 Author Posted November 14, 2007 I like Penny, but my other Yorkie is Minnie, I wonder would they get confused. I like Chi Chi.... hmmmm. My daughter wants to call her Sophie, but I think thats a silly name. I told her she could name her first child that, whether its a boy or a girl, but I would like to wait a while to be a granny (she is only 14!) What does Ewok mean? Siobhan

BMustee Posted November 14, 2007 Posted November 14, 2007 I think she looks like a Sasha...I like Penny and Dot though too.
sandra902 Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 victoria. she has a very royal look about her. even a little imperious like her namesake!
judygram Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 Sometimes a name is suitable from how it acts and not just from looks alone, so maybe something about her personality will bring a name to mind.
birdgranna Posted November 16, 2007 Posted November 16, 2007 We also have a teacup yorkie. We named her Ellie for this reason. Yorkshire Terriers originated from Huddersfield England. It so happens my grandmother was also born there. Her name was Eliza which we decided to name our baby. It has been shortened to Ellie. Elli goes everywhere with me including to work. I work in nursing homes and retirement homes and she is such a big hit with everyone. She is the most awesome beautiful dog.I will try to post pics of her and of her with one of my conures which she plays tag with. I don't have much luck posting pics though:dry:
siobha9 Posted November 17, 2007 Author Posted November 17, 2007 This baby is a mid size Yorkie, rather than the tiny one. I would be afraid of stepping on a miniature! Hmmm things about her personality, she is 9 weeks old today, so the words manic, crazy, and lots and lots of poo come to mind! So far we are still calling her the dot and Dot, I think it has stuck, but latte is good too. She met one of my greys the other day. We were worried that Liath might bite her, but no, Dot hops around the back and tries to chew Liath's tail. Liath now keeps a VERY safe distance from her, which is probably a good thing:lol: Siobhan
Guest Posted November 17, 2007 Posted November 17, 2007 I like Dot She is such a cutieeeeeeee {Love-0002011D}I feel like stretching my arms through the screen and picking her up (from the photo)
siobha9 Posted November 18, 2007 Author Posted November 18, 2007 She is adorable isnt she!! We took a family vote with all your names and Sophie and Dot, and decided on.............yes you guessed it..... Dot!! We thought it would be too hard to get used to a new name! So now our dogs are Mini and Dot !
birdgranna Posted December 8, 2007 Posted December 8, 2007 Cute guys. Here is my Ellie. <br><br>Post edited by: Talon, at: 2008/02/23 17:37
judygram Posted December 9, 2007 Posted December 9, 2007 That is so cute of her playing with the conure and she really is a tiny thing isn't she!!!! Thanks for sharing a few pictures with us.
Tari Posted December 11, 2007 Posted December 11, 2007 Cute cute. Love the names they so work. Mini and Dot. lol PS Cause of the picture of the dogs on the floor with the birds. Just a reminder dog saliva kills just as much as cats does.
siobha9 Posted December 12, 2007 Author Posted December 12, 2007 Ellie is gorgeous. How old is she in the second picture? Dot and Mini are getting on great, but Dot has developed a habit of collecting all the dirty underwear from my teenage daughters room and arranging them all over the sitting room. I am hoping this might encourage her to tidy her room!
birdgranna Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Ellie was about 6 months old in the pics with the conure. The one of her layng on the chair is recent. She still only weighs 3 lbs at age 2 1/2.She is a very good dog and does not bother the birds at all.
danmcq Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I would imagine Ellie would get hurt if she messed with your birds. They are bigger than she is :-) This has been a great thread, thanks for sharing all of this with us.
