We have two dogs: a queensland heeler named Peanut because when we adopted her and brought her home, she looked like a peanut with huge ears; a dobie/aussie mix named Archie 'cause when we adopted him and were shopping for collars I picked up one of those jeweled collars jokingly and my partner said that it looked like something Liberace would wear. We also have two cats: one white with a black tail who is named Eddie 'cause he looks like an Eddie; and a black cat with white markings who is named Schmoo because she has the same markings as Shamoo the whale. Silly, huh? There are long stories associated with each pet as my partner has a very vivid imagination!!
