Annalisa, you tease! How did Sundance get her name? I like that name.
One of my classmates at GDB got a dog named Jerry, which is my husband's
name. If I'd gotten that dog, I'd have had to change his name for sure.
And I couldn't even change it to something that sounds similar, like
Terry, because I wouldn't want the man to answer when I'm calling the dog.
I keep a list of good dog names, just in case I need to pick out something
to change to. I looked at my list before I got Ben, while I was wondering
what my new dog's name would be. And there was the name Ben, right near
the top of my list! So I was very happy when my trainer told me Ben's
name.
