she looks like a 'Toffee' to me. We have a collie he is called minty as he looked like a humbug

She looks like Miss Piggy to me - in the nicest possible way  ;D   Miss for short.

My daughter wants a choc lab and to call it Cadbury - but them we decided we'd prefer a bitch and would call it Cadi (short for Cadbury - but also a welsh name - for Katy) - think that suits your pup but maybe too similar to Cassie x

Mali (welsh for Molly)

Just chosen the kennel club names for the pups and it gets harder to find them from Lord of the rings as they must now be popular, so, the next litter will be Islands off Scotland!!!!! Let us know the name you choose and more photos of her growing up and working!!

Fern would be my choice. My wife usually chooses names here and she picked Bracken. Lovely dog tho'  :)

Sheepdogs would have one syllable names so what about Jess, Meg, Kai (Kye)?
If not, Kira (Keera), Maia (My-a), Skerry?
