Thanks for sharing this with us. I still can't get my two kids names straight and I have had more than 20 years to work on it.

Ok, I'll join in - "Rusty, Spike, Sadie, Bogie!" (This is our current pack.)

Oh, and just to clarify, Spike is a 9 pound rescued Shih-tzu with a whole lot of chutzpah which allowed him to survive a very rough start in life, hence the name.

Loved this! I can't answer for you, but I remember all of the dog names Tonia mentioned above, plus the following horses names: Poesia, Favorito, Anastacia, and Sonata, and not the names of my next door neighbors.

I know. Plus I liked my horses a whole lot more than my neighbors. The horses had more interesting conversations...
