Name for new arrival

[Unicorn]

Not a puppy, sorry!
But this gorgeous girl appeared in my life a couple of days ago. She's currently fostered here, but won't be going anywhere, she's fabulous





Currently called Cairo according to her microchip, but clearly nobody has told her! And I really don't think it suits her. To me she feels like a Poppy, but any other suggestions welcome.

 

[MurphysMinder]

She’s lovely . Do you know any of her history, she looks as if she might be working line ?

 

[pistolpete]

Oh she’s gorgeous. Much more trainable than a Lurcher too. What about Tara or something regal. Soraya or Duchess

 

[PurBee]

She’s gorgeous! Sudden name ‘Amber’ popped into my head…those amber eyes!

@Unicorn. Congratulations on finding your new friend.

I hope you have many happy years together.

Thank you! Sadly I have no idea...she seems to have been dumped after producing lots of puppies . She does have that look, and she seems to have the brain, but thankfully not the drive!

Soraya... I like that

She’s gorgeous! Sudden name ‘Amber’ popped into my head…those amber eyes!

Oooo... I like Amber too

@Unicorn. Congratulations on finding your new friend.

I hope you have many happy years together.

Thank you. She deserves a lot of happy years

Tippi.

I thought Sadie as soon as I saw her , no idea why

 

[The Xmas Furry]

Rowan?
I like Amber and also Ember too.
Does she respond to the chipped name?

No, she has absolutely no idea it's her name. I'd probably stick with it if she did, but at the moment she responds better to Sausage or Poppet

 

[Lauraback]

She’s gorgeous Roxy was my first thought as a name

 

[Clodagh]

Dolly. I rescued a GSD in Oz years ago and called her that. She’s beautiful and I’m pleased you found each other.
Oh and btw I’m someone who much prefers adults to puppies!

 

[pistolpete]

Whatever you call her she looks like a complete sweetheart

 

[Bellaboo18]

She's lovely and far better than a puppy!
I think she suits Poppy or Pippa/Pip but either way I hope you have years of fun together x

 

[nagblagger]

Sheba, Shylo ..she looks lovely.

 

[TheOldTrout]

She's beautiful and has fallen on her paws with you!

 

[Mrs. Jingle]

She is so lovely, I am so glad she has found a forever home with you.

 

[Ratface]

No, she has absolutely no idea it's her name. I'd probably stick with it if she did, but at the moment she responds better to Sausage or Poppet

Well, Poppet it is, then!

 

[SaddlePsych'D]

Wonderful news! Congratulations

I quite like Pip or Poppy or Pepper

 

[Indy]

She’s gorgeous Roxy was my first thought as a name

Mine too

 

[Unicorn]

Finally, we have a decision!

She's definitely Poppy



She's settling in really well and is such a sweet girl. I have a feeling there's a lot of personality waiting to be discovered

 

[ycbm]

She looks right at home. What's the story with the funky ear, Unicorn?

 

[MurphysMinder]

Hello Poppy . I’ve just noticed her ear , do you know what happened?

 

[Unicorn]

Sadly no idea what happened to the ear ..she arrived in the rescue like that, poor girl

It seems to have healed nicely and doesn't seem to bother her, thankfully. Apart from needing extra ear rubs, obviously.

 

[CorvusCorax]

I clocked it, hence my suggestion. I've seen a couple of injuries like that, it can often be caused by either the mother or a litter mate in the whelping box. Almost always another dog.

Thank you, that makes a lot of sense.

 

[CorvusCorax]

If you're interested I can run her microchip number through a couple of databases and see if I can find anything more out about her background if you want to PM me.

 

[Ratface]

Beautiful, fortunate dog. Definitely fallen on her paws with you. GSDs are fabulous companions. Still miss mine, even though it's decades since she left, her photo has pride of place in the saloon.
Good luck, both, going forward.

Thank you, that's a very kind offer. Will PM you.
