Please help name the new puppy
We just added a new puppy to our family. She is a 10 week old chihuahua, 2lbs of spunk. Full grown she might be around 4 to 4 1/2 pounds.

We have been debating different names. So far the favorites are:

Lola
Izzy
Ellie
CoCo
Miley

By favorites, I mean each person wants only the name they have picked.





Any ideas?

Thanks..;-)

though I haven't really solidified on the name yet. Mr. Sprinkles is a bit too complicated.

71. Sorry I missed out on the voting. However, if she is to be AKC registered,
Edited on Tue Dec-19-06 01:01 AM by Radio_Lady
you might use the full name Cinnamon Spice, together with her kennel name.

Call name would be Spicy! (We once had a dog by that name!)

(She's adorable and looks like the color of cinnamon and sugar to me! I don't know if she's black and tan or another color variety.)

My mother-in-law raised chihuahuas. They were cute, but they barked a lot!

May you enjoy her as long as she lives!
