This week’s name is:
The ever popular Barbie doll even had a puppy! Not being into dolls, I didn’t know that.
Apparently Barbie’s puppy Sachi even comes with lots of dressy things to wear; a tail ruffle, a ruffled collar, a bandana, a baseball hat, sunglasses and ear ruffle; it also has a disc and a brush.
I personally think it looks a little like white skunk, but it is cute and has a great name!
Who knew!

This week’s name is:
Guinness Book of World Records recognizes Zorba, a Mastiff from England, as the heaviest dog in the world, at over 315 lb (143 kg).
Zorba stood 37 inches (94 cm) at the shoulder and was 8 feet 3 inches (251 cm) from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail. Zorba set this record in November 1989, when he was 8 years old.

I was feeling nostalgic over the holiday, so this week’s name is:
Spike was the bulldog from the cartoon Tom and Jerry. Those old cartoons were great, and the characters were really fun. Here is a bit more information about Spike:

Spike
First Appearance:
“Dog Trouble” 1942
Biography:
Voiced by: Bill Thompson and Dawes Butler
A stern bulldog who’s particularly disapproving of cats, but a softie when it comes to mice
Spike has a few weaknesses that Tom tries to capitalise on: his possessiveness about his bone and his ticklishness
Relationship to Tom and Jerry:
Friend to Jerry, but not that fond of cats
