Poppy

The new puppy came home last night! We've decided to call her Poppy. 


Thanks for all the name suggestions and good wishes!

Welcome to your Forever Home, Poppy, you lucky girl!

Yorkshire Pudding said...

Poppy is a good name for her. Welcome to The Barlow Residence you cute little doggie!

Rachel Phillips said...

Excellent choice Jennifer. She looks like a Poppy, alert and plenty of attitude in the nicest possible way. xx

Ellen D. said...

Sweet choice! Best wishes to all of you!

Bonnie said...

Well Hello there Poppy! I love your new name and it does suit you!

Margaret said...

Cute little Poppy!

Jennifer said...

Thank you Mary! She really is a cutie...and SO GOOD. Her first vet appointment went great. She wanted to meet ALL the dogs and ALL the people! She got a clean bill of health, too.

Jennifer said...

She's keeping us busy, but she's sweet and it's already obvious that she's very smart. :)

Jennifer said...

Her "Aunt Martina" gave her a beautiful gift bag full of new chew toys and treats (with some things for George, too) and said it was for her "Gotcha Day". It warmed my heart!

Jennifer said...

Out of the dozens of names we seriously considered, it seemed to suit her best. And while it's apparently a very common girl dog name in the UK, here in the States it's not all that common. Thanks Neil!

Jennifer said...

Thanks Rachel! She's spunky and sweet and has the brightest eyes. She also has a bit of an independent streak, which is unusual in a puppy. She's wanted to be outside on the screened porch all day today, mostly by herself. Which was good because George and I needed a nap and I didn't have to worry about supervising her. She's curious about everything, too. I think Poppy suits her personality!

Jennifer said...

Thank you Ellen!

Jennifer said...

I think "George and Poppy" sound good together, too.

Jennifer said...

She's really cute, and already it looks like she's growing. She weighed in at 24 pounds this morning. The vet thinks she'll end up between 40 and 50 pounds, but probably no more than that. Her legs are very long so she's going to be tall.

I'm new to your blog but have read about your past 'furry'kids. Poppy looks to be a charming puppy. Well done.

Very cute, and very much a playful puppy, no doubt.

Hi Poppy. Welcome to a good and loving home.

A good name. We had two Poppy dogs in our life. Poppy I and Poppy II. Both Yorkies.

Poppy the puppy! I am looking forward to many more pictures and stories about her. Little P. will be delighted when you tell him, won't he!

So happy for you all! She’s adorable.

Awwww! Welcome home, Poppy.

Yorkshire Pudding said...

Bitch! Isn't that the proper name for a "girl dog"?

Karla said...

OMG, love the name Poppy! It's a happy name - I believe she will bring much of it to you and your husband!
