who entered in our
"Name That Puppy" Contest.
There were about 60 entries per sex,
and it was a lot of fun.
Hamish and Angus
were the most popular boy's names.
Fergie was the most popular
for the wee lasses.
The first thing we did was have Momtype out all of the names
and cut them apart,
attached to the name of the entrant.
She then put them in one of her
Scottie purses
and we got to choose them.
Because Javais our elder,
he was given the opportunity
to choose first.
As you can see,
he's not really enthusiastic about it.
We know the puppies
haven't changed too much,
according to their pictures,
but they have really grown a lot.
Each puppy has gained
an average of 5 ounces.
And that's a lot when you only
weigh 8 ounces to begin with.
They are wiggly
and very hard to photograph,
so please bear with us.
Cuter pictures of them
will come in a couple of weeks.
Little Laddie #1is now named
Hamish
as suggested by
Uncle Petey.
Java says,
"us old guys gotta stick together".
This is in honor of our friend, Hamish.
Our male puppy #2is now named
Angus,
as suggested by Bijou.

Excellent names all round. Well done everyone!
Cheers, H.
PS And do remember it's pronounced Hay-mish, not Hamm-ish!!!
Yea..what cute names. Now they are real little boys and girls
Benny & Lily
Hip hip Hooray for HAMISH!!!Ahh, I'm such a proud uncle, if I was wearing buttons they'd be busting! Hopefully, this wee Scots lad will be the recipient of much Highland knowledge from me and his namesake Hamish. What a grand legacy! We were so excited that NSLM and Clive's name was selected as well. Then we got to Lassie Snickers and our eyes welled up with happy tears. What a wonderful legacy. My middle names are "Keddy" after our sweet-natured WFT so I'd be sweet like her and "Hudson" after a handsome Bernese Mountain dog friend, so I might have a touch of his noble grace.
No doubts that baby Hamish and Snickers will have the delightful personalities of these wonderful dogs that came before them! All the pups are precious and adorable, but is it okay if we have a couple favorites?
Your very proud pal,
Uncle Petey
All the names are perfect! Congrats to winners.

The pups are really adorable and they have great names! What a great idea to have the community take part in naming them --- makes them even more special! We hope they all have blogs of their own too.

We just love all the names for the pups. And there are a couple that are very special to us:) It was a lot of fun playing the name the pup game.

I'm so sad that I missed the contest but I think all the names are Perfect!
Awww. What a sweet post. And what VERY SWEET puppy pictures! This made us smile at a time this evening when a smile feels really good. Our Girl was so disappointed when she realized the deadline for the Naming Contest had come and gone, but she'll be pleased to read the results. We love all the names ... and Fergi blushed a bit when she learned her name had been a popular nomination.
Enjoy those puppies! The weeks will go quickly.
Love
Jake and Fergi xxoo
