Hi - my name is Crystal. I'm new here but I've been looking around this site for the last little bit & I already love it!! Here's the story on why I'm posting: I'm an animal lover, I have several (5 dogs, 2 cats, 1 cow, 4 horses, 1 fish). More than that I'm a dog lover, to be more specific I'm a boxer lover. I have 2 registered boxers that are my BABIES. Where I'm employed I work hand-in-hand with our local animal warden (among other things). I have to hear all of the horror stories that goes on behind the scenes here about neglect & abuse & overpopulation & euthanization etc. I love my job but that particular part of it tugs at my heart daily. Just recently we had a call come in from a gentleman reporting neglect/abuse of 2 dogs by a tennant of his rental property. Our AW went & checked it out & sure enough it was bad, real bad. I'll spare you specifics but in the end the female boxer had to be euthanized & my husband and I are fostering the male to keep the same from happeing to him. I guess he's apx 5 months old and he's turning out to be the sweetest little angel. We've pretty much already talked ourselves into adopting him when the time comes (when he's healthy enough for permant adoption). (I think I have some pics of him posted on my profile if your interested-beware they may be graphic because he was so thin when he was picked up). This little guy has gone through so much in his short little life that we think he needs the most distinguished and honorable name imaginable. We don't want to name him sparkey or chip or fido - not that those aren't fine names - but he needs somehting PROUD. That's our delimma. We've thought and thought to no avail...still nothing. Can anyone help, it's been almost 2 weeks already. PS incase it matters - he's apx 5 mo's old, solid white with chocolate brindle over his left eye and ear & just a spot on his tail, long tail (not docked) and long ears (not cropped) and he's deaf. Sometimes it helps to name them when you know a little more about them.
I'm open to any ideas and suggestions...your help will be SOOOO appreciated!!
