Dogs

[BrewMan13]

I'll be getting a new puppy this weekend, and I don't know what I'm gonna name him yet. I have a list that I'm mulling over, but decided to ask y'alls opinion.

Bomber
Growler
Saison
Marzen
Plato
Fuggles

I have a dog named Dunkel (pictures in this thread somewhere). I was thinking Marzen or Saison to keep the beer style theme with Dunkel.

Here's his latest picture:

I just went through this with my new puppy. I wanted something beer related, but not obviously beer related. We settled on "Korby Nelson". The middle name inspiration should be obvious, but the first name is a reference to the German beer "Korbinian". We considered a lot of other stuff like porter, stout, "Taddy" (for samuel smiths taddy porter"), Vitus, Sahti, Nitro, bomber, malty, barley, and lots of others. But at the end of the day, Korby really seems to fit him.
Anyway, from your suggestions, probably marzen. Could always use "marzy" as a nickname .

We named our second miniature poodle "Hazel" with the expectation that we would call her "Hazy." However, when we got her, we knew she was not a Hazy. In addition, I don't really like NEIPA's anyway. So Hazel it is.

This is Varly, he was named after a Washington Capitals goalie that we saw play the day before we rescued him. He was taken out of an abusive household and we had the privilege of adopting him. Jack Russell/ shitzu mix. The Shitzu calmed him down but he has all the Jack Russell attitude.

while on the topic of beer-related dog names, i think that "Sparge" would be a good one.

 

[pvpeacock]

I like it. "Come Sparge, come Vorlouf. Sit!"

 

[GrogNerd]

I imagine "Vorlouf" is a doberman with floppy ears

meanwhile, Lady Gemma scored her first confirmed kill. baby mouse on the front porch

at least it was outside

 

[pvpeacock]

Well that deserves a beer in my opinion! For you, not Lady Gemma.

 

[GrogNerd]

got buzzed, but not from beer.

she woke me up 3 more times to go out & hunt for more

Well, he's 8 months old now and fully grown. Here he is overseeing my last brewday:

Roggen is 8 months old now too. I'm hoping he grows a bit more.

What happened to his leg? Born that way? I would be afraid without the leg he'll be able to pull out of the harness.

Beautiful boy though.

I didn't even notice that his leg isn't visible. He's got all four, just the angle hides his left behind the right leg. And, even with all four, he is a little Houdini, he got out of that harness. I now have one that I don't think he will get out of.

Oh good. Yeah, even knowing that his leg is hard to see.

Sadly, we had to say goodbye to hilma last week, she got pancreatitis and with her diabetes it was sadly no longer possible to get her healthy and to stop more suffering we put her to sleep.
She had a great 11 years which is really long for a diabetic dog anyway, but sad none the less.
Our puppy hati took it rather bad for while, but is back to his old self and hyper as a proper pup, helping us through the hard times.

Murphy. Now, 7 years. Named him after a certain stout.

I'm sorry Kharynb. Hoping you heal well and soon. Glad hati is right there to ease the way.

The wife and I (and our dog Millie), are fostering a dog from the local dog rescue for the Thanksgiving weekend. He is all tired out from his first day in a real home.

 

[Kharnynb]

aww, how high is the risk of foster fail

 

[Sailingeric]

aww, how high is the risk of foster fail

I am trying to convince my wife to keep him. He is a sweet dog but she is worried about how much extra work another dog will be.

Once you have one, an extra isn’t much more work. Heck three is nothing.

 

[Sailingeric]

We ended up adopting the dog. He looks like a Frankie and our dog Millie is warming up to having a little bother.

No more stuffing, please!
