Finally! A name!!!

Okay so I have a name now- thank woof for that! The humans have been calling me 'hey', 'doggie' and 'dog' all this while and I never got it. For dog's sake, its only a name - it surely cannot be that hard! I was called Tofu when I was with Sandra but my new humans don't think Tofu suits me as I was part of a duo - Tofu and Noodles - hence the search for a new name. For a while it was McLovin - no bones for guessing why! I am a loving soul and I love bumping people up for a snuggle. But the man human thought the older human folk would never 'get it' and said he was too embarrassed to shout 'McLovin' when we're out and about or playing fetch.

The woman human kept coming up with all sorts of names for me  but the man human was still not happy - he wanted something short, sharp and with few syllables - and the name 'Haggis' came up and that was it. I am Haggis! I quite like the name but a few silly twits have actually laughed at it. One woman human said 'Oh you poor dog - you'll never know what a silly name you have'. She's lucky I couldn't talk human to tell her what I thought of her!

I even have a tartan collar and leash to go with my name now - it was sent from Scotland as a present for me by that older woman human who came last to visit. It actually came addressed to 'Miss Haggis'. Woof! I love it.
(Note from woman human - the woman who came to visit was Gavin's mum)
