Re: "Name the Minpin" Contest
It turns out that the rescue was a false alarm, so I won't be needing a name any time too soon. But "Pyrron" or "Pyrrus" would definitely have been in the running. Thanks for the suggestions! :) I personally kind of like "Pyro" for a red dog (the prefix for English words pertaining to "fire"). Naming a red miniature pinscher after the Hellenic king Pyrrhus would be clever, too, seeing as how this toy breed is, in the Dog World, dubbed "The King of the Toys". You win, Pavlos, and not merely by default, either. :)
You already had my respect, so when do you want to collect your free curse? :)
