Ok...confessing this one....years ago when we got our little Cairn, poor little guy had fleas at first. My hubby was less than thrilled (just at first) to my getting a dog, so he would say 'keep that Fleabag away from me'. My daughter was only one year old, and she picked up on 'Flea'....so for 16 years that poor dog's name was Flea. Needless to say, we sounded pretty silly outside when calling 'Flea!'
Hammie's name is Hamlin Cort, and I've mentioned this before but my son truly cannot believe that I'm the one that named him. He says it's the dorkiest name on the face of the planet. He calls him 'Dogface'.....yeah, like THAT'S better???!!!
nicknames......Addie is 'Addie Bo Daddie'
Hammie is 'Hamster'....that's what Dave calls him
BBGirlfriend, the cat, is called many names that can't be put in print!!!!!
