Suggestions gladly excepted for a name for this little girl, .............as the 5th pug we are running out of ideas ;D she is a sweet little soul, ex puppy farm bitch and a bit timid to start. We have only had her for a day but already she has wormed her way into heart and home!

I think they are lovely names - but Eppie? Is that short for something?

All the stuff you read about the stress involved with selling a house is sooooooooo true! we are now waiting to see if the offer we have today put in for a place on lewis is accepted.
Then we just have the stress of getting us all up to Scotland from West Wales :o
I hope Rosie likes to travel!!!! but when we get there she can have her own croft to run about in, rather than the rabbit hutch she has been kept in on the puppy farm.

Eppie is short for Hepzibar, I am a weaver and that's the little girls name in Silas Marner, one of my fav books.
