| We are getting a new furbaby! :) So, the puppy didn't work out. Puppies just aren't for us right now. We are for sure that we need older, mature dogs..... which is great b/c they need homes, too! But the past few weeks I have been emailing with a woman about a 3 1/2 year old male (who is a stud). He sounds like the PERFECT FIT for our family and the PERFECT boyfriend for Molly! *squeals* His name is Austin and he is right at 6lbs. We are picking him up either Monday or Tuesday night in Louisville - we will meet there b/c the woman I am getting him from lives VERY far from us! Has anyone had any experience with changing an adult dog's name? Austin isn't our pick for a name... but I don't know if we should change it? What do you think? So not only is Mommy happy but Molly is really happy, too!

Donating YT 1000 Club Member | For the first four years of our Yorkies life she was a breeder dog named "Only Blue Will Do", then she went to a no kill rescue who named her Belle. We adopted her from the no kill rescue 8 months ago and changed her name somewhat. Just so she would still hear Belle we hyphenated her name to Audrey-Bell. (Audrey Hepburn had a Yorkie too) It took awhile but she answers to Audrey, Belle, Audrey-Belle, etc. Lost or dumped dogs who get new families learn new names every day.

| congrats on your new baby! i'm not sure how true this is but i heard once (dont remember where) that dogs really only associate the first letter of their name. ie. my dogs name is jetta but she will come to any "J" name. So maybe if you stick with another "A" name or something starting with a vowel it would be easier for him? |

| I changed Mollys name from Bubbles, and she was 2years when i rescued her. Now, she doesnt even look at me if i say bubbles. Most of the time i call her Mollzy, which gets her attention every time.(im not saying she does what i ask every time, but it gets her attention!!) |
