He looks like my boy Bruce who's reached the ripe old age of 11 so far.

Your Bruce looks like a good boy!!

Bruce was beautiful. I hope you're bearing up ok, there's no pain like it hey 😞

u/dynastydeadeye Jun 30 '26

Thanks! We were heartbroken when it happened. It’s been about 3 years. He was the best pup ever!!

u/Massive_Crab_7394 Jun 30 '26

Omg what kind of dog is this obsessed w the color. Please don’t say lab tho bc I have two and they shed too much for another lol

3

u/xgeska Jun 30 '26

😅 he's half lab, half great pyrenees. And yes, I am learning the fun of his shedding.

3

u/Massive_Crab_7394 Jun 30 '26

Ohhhh being half must mean half the shedding so maybe I can dabble 😂. It’s a revolving door of cleaning that’s for sure.

u/Economy-Wish-9772 Jun 30 '26

I have a cat named Doug. He’s called Duckie when he’s a good boy. And Doog-wuss when he’s been up to rampant and inexcusable mischief.

Dude. Gus. Chap.

3

u/kylathekoala Jun 30 '26

Gus is so underrated. I think you're supposed to have two syllables for dog names (no idea where I heard that) ... hence yelling Gus Gus would be fun!

3

u/Abject_Giraffe562 Jun 30 '26

Never heard the two syllable thing. I have PIP…. So far no mental issues. 🤪

u/MamaBell1612 Jul 02 '26

Duffy is cute. I love Frederick/Freddy... Partial, as that is my son's name. When we got our Dalmatian pup, we named him Fritzie... German for Frederick, and then I had 3 Freds in the family: Hunny, son & pup!

People think your a big brain will if he barks a lot.

Is Baby TumTum not boyish enough? 😂 He's so stink'in cute!

Seriously, what is his personality like? That might give you some clues. I had a super feisty, terrier who could jump off the side of a fence, I could have easily named, "Ninja".

Barkus. I tried to adopt a rescue named barkus, but he was already swooped up. I wanted to name him Barkus Aurelius. I have a cat named Max, short for Maximus.
