Yo!

I just got a new dog (collie/retriever mix). My girlfriend and I are arguing over what to name him. He's 4-months old and has no name (we got him from a shelter).

I'm wanting something nerdy, like an inside joke, but she's wanting "Bear".

What do you think?

Here's a pic:

Max is a good name.
Or maybe Rufus might be okay.

No Max, Bear, or Rufus, unless you want every dog on the block to show up when you call him.

Jake is good. When I get my dog I'm gonna name it Mouth. Don't ask why.

For some reason, the name Billy comes to mind when I look at the photo.

Looks cute though, have fun with him!
