I told them right away I wanted hime - a 2 year old registered golden, that is great around everyone from infants to adults. He just needed a little training, and in about a week, he is the one of the best behaved dogs I have been around.
He came with a name - but I had it in my head that I was going to name my next dog Bill Dance or Hank Parker - So I can say "I'm going fishing with Bill Dance today" I also like Loomis, Bandit, and Saint (croix). You could also go with Ike, but he will be destined to have behavior problems.
