[nagdu] dog names

[The Pawpower Pack]

Exactly.  When I got Soleil, her name was Solo, but Laveau kept thinking I was calling her, and besides, she is not a solo, she is the friendliest yellow lab you'd ever meet, so I changed it to Soleil, which is the French word for Sun, because she is always sun-shiny. It is pronounced So-lay, so similar to Solo, , better! and nobody has a Soleil at least that I've met so far!
