I've wanted a dog my entire adult life...(and I'm in my early 50's!)

So, while I waited for my dream to come true, I thought up pages & pages of names for my future dog (that's if i ever GOT one...) I had names for females, males, little dogs, big dogs, cutesy names & tuff dog names...

My dream finally came true on September 23, 2005 in the form of an 8-week old, male Maltese puppy.

I named him: Bam-Bam

(It's from "The Flintstones", a cartoon from my childhood). It was cute (like Bam-Bam himself), short & snappy, and not too common.

I love his name, but Bam-Bam could care less: because when I call him he only comes when & if he feels like it ! All that work for nothing...Oh well !
SO, HOW DID YOU DECIDE ON YOUR DOG'S NAME?

Well i came up with Flukes name because when he was being born, he got stuck for 2 hours and we thought he was a gonner, but when we finally got his mom to the vet we looked in the box and there he was. I thought he was dead so my daughter picked him up and realized he was still alive. After the vet cleared his airway and got him breathing on his own, we decided to name him Fluke cause it was a fluke that he lived
