I think naming him after a knitting pattern would be very cute. I like Durrow. ;)

Michelle said...

That is the cutest dog I have ever seen. Aw. Look at his big brown eyes... okay, Michelle, get a grip.

How about calling him Baudelaire? Beau, for short. It's both literary and knitterly! The pattern is here:

As soon as my printer has a new ink cartridge, I'm printing this pattern out and getting started!

Beautiful Dalmatian - he looks adorable. We have one (a girl called Lou-lou) who is 11 and still as playful as she was as a puppy. The only downside to them as a breed - is that they will anything (and I mean anything) and they will also roll in anything - the smellier the better.

I look forward to reading more about him and discovering his new name. I always said if I had a male Dally I'd call him Muldoon - as in Spotty Muldoon. I have a mate who rather cruely called her male Dally..........Zit!
