And the winner is...

When naming a dog, special consideration should be given to creativity, meaningfulness, and pleasantness in the articulation of the name. We burned ourselves out coming up with THE perfect name for the new puppy, so we just started calling him Jack. Yep, Jack which is completely unimaginative, meaningless (unless the nipper is tagged on), and boring to say (except this morning - Dad was saying Jack like Balboa in Pirates of the Caribbean). Anyhoo, I want to thank everyone for casting their vote or suggesting other names. I hope that after all the build-up and suspense, you aren't too disappointed!

Oh yeah, in that second picture you might notice that his collar is around one arm. That's how I found the little goofball when I came home yesterday. I suppose it's kind of Jack Sparrowish of him.
