B7

B7 is just a nickname.

I've grown tired of calling him "the puppy" or "dog" while I wait for him to grow up enough to show me his personality and then find a suitable name.

For those of you who know me well (i mean really well) you'll know that since I was 14, the Letter/ Number combination has followed me EVERYWHERE. It haunts me, and teases me, surprises me and has become a bit of a lucky number.

When I first met the puppies, B7 stood out to me. He was the only light blond pup in a little of black puppies, with a deep golden sister.

It wasn't until the second time I visited him that I realized he was the 7th, of 7 pups to be born.
He was "B"londe and the 7th, He was mine("B"randolyn's) and the 7th. He was B7!!!

And then the nickname stuck. Simple as that.

Research:
-Comparative dog foods. Which food is healthier? Why?  If you are unsure, Petsmart has dog food reps visit their stores every week to talk about the benefits of their products and will answer any questions!

-Compare dog food prices.   Compare weight, price, and ingredients. The more nutrients in the food, the less food the dog will eat (in Theory), so the longer the bag of food will last. So.... expensive food, with more nutrients, or cheap food that will take more food to fill and satisfy your dog? Weigh your options.

-Compare types of puppy toys and treats.  Rope toys are good for teething, but must be maintained (pull off excess strings so the puppy doesn't swallow them, it;s a toy, not food). Tennis balls are bad for a dog's gums. Pig's ears can have sharp edges that can cut a dog's oesophagus. Cheap toys can break and be a choking hazard, and sometimes have harmful dyes. You wouldn't give your child a toy to play with covered in lead based paint, so why not take similar precautions with your dog's toys?
