She had such a long name - "All Things Bright and Beautiful of Tintagel Winds Labradors ! We stuck with Petite-Chose, which was her pet name, and even that was rather a mouthful. The shorter the name the better, and our current dog, also a retired breeding Labrador, and is Spanish, is called Inca.Coppa's girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459503600694841117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-64778740644603680492017-03-15T08:43:04.919+01:002017-03-15T08:43:04.919+01:00I think the LOF (Livre des Origines Français), whi...I think the LOF (Livre des Origines Français), which is the organization that certifies dogs as pedigreed and keeps the geneology records, requires that you give the dog a name that starts with the letter for the year of birth (N for 2017) for the registration documents. But then you are of course free to call the dog by any name you want to. We named Callie because her birth year, 2007, was a C year for the LOF, and we've always called her Callie.Ken Broadhursthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04430899802705818716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-11679033789610893472017-03-15T08:42:25.282+01:002017-03-15T08:42:25.282+01:00Callie's "full" name is Callie du Be...Callie's "full" name is Callie du Berger de la Vallée des Géants, which translates to Callie of the Shepherd of the Valley of Giants.wcshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00551283829616757577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17913552.post-16925656176063183222017-03-15T08:39:30.644+01:002017-03-15T08:39:30.644+01:00Wow!

I do hope that Callie will bond with her.<br />I saw a list of suggestions of names beginning with 'N' - they included Nescafé, Nobody, Nutella, and Nissan - how awful! Nina is a name that works well in both languages, though it's quite plain for such a pretty little pup.<br />Hope you're all getting some extra sleep - especially Callie.
