He arrived safely this weekend by way of Palencia España. Thanks to my friend Alberto Gonzalez. They call him "Boy" like his father but I'll prob change it. Open to suggestions all you Spanish speakers out there! Very sweet boy - great temperament. Chunky little guy. New pictures as soon as I get the chance. Here's a short clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qW_AqVuzA30

“I am learning to understand rather than immediately judge or to be judged. I cannot blindly follow the crowd and accept their approach. I will not allow myself to indulge in the usual manipulating game of role creation. Fortunately for me, my self-knowledge has transcended that and I have come to understand that life is best to be lived and not to be conceptualized. I am happy because I am growing daily and I am honestly not knowing where the limit lies. To be certain, every day there can be a revelation or a new discovery. I treasure the memory of the past misfortunes. It has added more to my bank of fortitude.”

Some 'boy'...
W/ his registered name why not just use the name "Merit". I know someone w/ that as a first name. Of course there is always 'Albondiga" (Meatball) the extent of my Spanish for cute name for a boy. Always have Paco, Machismo, Esperanza ?wish/Hope? (call name Perry?)...and I know Nikki B. knows Spanish names as does hubby Vic B. I would think.
Good luck with him.

Re: Meet the Spanish boy "La Chata Merit Of Boy"

Good luck with him!
How are all your Ozzie puppies doing?

Re: Meet the Spanish boy "La Chata Merit Of Boy"
That's great that you get to see all these different dogs in person. I think everyone wished they had the opportunity!
My Ozzie pups are good. The boy that Ed and Jess have is doing good. His favorite thing to do is pee on Ed's toolbox. Maybe he's trying to tell him something? I had sister "Sookie" entered in Apple Valley but had to pull out. That was to be her first show. I've been taking her to handling class every week and felt that she was finally ready but she had the zoomies and started rocketing around the backyard and stubbed her toe pretty bad. Just my luck! Once we get that taken care of maybe you'll get to meet her at a show sometime.
Thanks for wishing me luck with the boy!

WELLLLLL....
in my first year of Spanish in HS we had to memorize some conversations....and one of the questions or comments was that they were having Meatballs which was 'Albondigas'....so I figured if you took off the s it Albondiga was Meatball, singular. Of course that was in the last century or something, so maybe I remember wrong??? or maybe the word has changed??? or maybe I dreamt it all up....who knows....so much for trying to be helpful w/ my handful of spanish phrases and words....I have a Spanish/English dictionary at work if that would help???? LOL
Whatever you call him he is sweet and adorabull looking!!!

Lucky you!
I do feel very fortunate to have him and I feel I've made a good friend in the process.
I'll probably shoot you a few emails of some things you might find interesting then if you're headed there.

Very nice boy
Scott, he's very nice... good luck with him... I like Merit for a boys name or.. how about "Chap"?

Hi Nelia
Thanks for the nice comments and name suggestions. I've gotten so many name suggestions already. Still trying to go through them all.
Good luck with your litter posted below!
Scott
lmao..scott
Can't believe you posted that..it was only maybe ONE time he marked the toolbox. Someone tends to exaggerate. "Mr Pee-box" is looking pretty good. Will throw him and Bozley out there soon and see which does better at All-breeds. He will def be entered in BCNC. I think you need to come up for a Reno trip.
My name suggestion
Keeping with the drink in hand theme call him "Don Julio" 1942 being the best year of their tequila I've had the honor of tasting.
Or
Patron (Platinum of course) or FRIJOLE...lol LOVE that one
Pee-box
Hey, that's what I remember hearing lol! Maybe I was exaggerating just a bit. I'd love to see how "Mr Pee-box" does out there. Good luck with the boys and please keep me updated. His sister Sookie will be joining them anytime soon now.
Will have to do Reno or Vegas sometime! Cheap buffets, over-drinking, and a busted bank account here I come! Practicing my dice control for the craps table right now.
Scott
How about....
