Jillie was named in memory of Jack, as in Jack and Jill. I was adamant about the tribute to Jack, but she was my wife's dog. She wanted Bijou, which I didn't like. We compromised on Jillian Bijou, and I'm supposed to be calling her Jillian. |
I love that Jack's name used to be Cuddles. Totally think you should have kept it. All the more reason for me to be able to make fun of you.
