Getting excited, new puppy tomorrow!

I’ve been a very active member of the Guide Dogs For The Blind school for years. I raise dogs myself and raise them for Guide Dogs as well. I’ve raised four dogs for them so far and today feels like Christmas Eve for me because tomorrow I am getting dog number five! They’re sending me a little nine week old female black lab! They come with names when the raisers get them. All of the puppies in the litter have a name that begins with the same letter. That first letter is the only part of the name given out to the raisers before they actually receive the puppy and my puppy’s name begins with the letter "P." Any ideas on what her name could be? Part of the excitement is trying to guess the name. I’ve guessed right with the last two puppies, but this time I’m a little stumped. I just can’t come up with any (Good) "P" names! Please post any name possibilities you may have. Anyways, I just had to come and share my excitement with you guys! I’ll post pics of her as soon as I can!

Paige? That’s a cute name for a puppy. All of the other "P" names I can come up with are too human.

Patty, Pansy, Paris, Parker, Phoebe, Peyton, Pearl, Penny, Pepper, they don’t sound right!
Well, Paige and Penny are the only decent sounding ones to me.

Sorry I didn’t get back to you guys sooner. I meant to come on last night but didn’t get a chance. Anyways, I was really hoping ot would be one of the names that you guys listed. Nobody thought of this one, we were all (My whole Guide Dogs group was there plus some of the members of the group that is in a town about two hours away, we make these deliveries a big deal) surprised when they pulled her off of the puppy truck and said it. Her name is "Praline," as in the nut. Or Pralines and Cream ice cream. As unusual as this name is, it does actually fit her! She’s one of the cutest, sweetest dogs I’ve ever raised. I’ll try to have pics up by monday so you can all see how cute she is!

Nope. Purebred, pedigreed lab. I love the ears and hope she never grows into them!

She does look a little beagle-ish, but I’m sure shes not.
How lucky of you! I wouldn’t be able to give the baby up! Plus I’m terrible at training dogs, my guys barely sit on command :P

I’ll try to get some good full body pics of her for you guys. I can see where one would think "Beagle." She’s got a puppy face and a dog’s ears! I kinda hope she never grows into those ears.
