You can call me...

Tuesday, June 12, 2007

So cute little Lorenza did a post asking about nicknames. I don't quite get the nickname thing...what's wrong with my actual name that I need to have another one, two, three, or four??? It is actually amazing that I know my name considering all the nicknames I have. Here's a sampling...

Wonder Ruby - the one that I actually like...for obvious reasons. I was Wonder Woman for Halloween last year and it was a blast. My Mom made the coolest costume ever...not sure how she is going to top it this year.

RB - ok, that's dumb. My initials? How original is that..oh, wait...my Mom named her Airedale when she was a pup 'AD' so what should I expect.

Princess Mud Puddle - she always says that AFTER I have rolled in the mud at the park. I don't exactly think she means it as a compliment.

Pumkinhead - This is what Auntie Yvette calls me...why, I do not know. Hey isn't Pumpkinhead that scawie monster from the movies??? EEEEKKKKK!!!


The Rubinator - So anyone who doesn't live under a rock knows that the one and only Terminator is Governor of California...so seeing how we live in Sacramento (where the governator lives) she calls me the Rubinator...whatever.

Cujo - you know, after that Stephen King killer dog. She called me that in puppy class when she said I terrorized the little'r dogs. I never terrorized anydoggie...I was just playing!

And finally, there are the 'girl' names like...
Snorty Girl - Mom always calls me that when I'm getting excited while I'm playing. Don't pigs snort...hmmm...what is she saying about me? Have I gained weight??? Do I look fat? Oh no!

Cute Girl Ruby - Mom's friend Miss Debbie calls me that. I like it because I'm cute, and a girl.

Baby Girl - My friend Dodger's dad calls me that. I'm not a baby anymore, but I don't mind it.

Beastie Girl or Crazy Girl - Those are 'catch all' nicknames for when I'm doing mean or crazy things...which is like, never. (Ruby's Mom: Oh, really?)

So that's it. Don't you think that is enough nicknames? I'm just a little dog! I'm sure Mom will come up with more over time. OK doggies...tell us your nickname(s)!

PS - Shameless Plug Alert!
Don't forget to vote for Me, Ike (Ike & Ike) and Martha in the SPCA photo contest. You can only vote once per email adress, so go get another email address if you've already voted...Yahoo email addresses ARE free you know! (Ruby's Mom: Ruby - Stop that!) Oh and let me know if you entered so I can vote for you too.

Hi, Ruby.
Are our moms crazy or what?? Why they give us a name if they are going to be calling us with many different ones.
Yes, anyway we love our moms, right??

Thank you so very much for joining my pledge to help the animals.
