Wilson's name came from a couple places.. Wilson Combat (gun company) & Wilson the character on "House". Seemed fitting for such a sweet boy who is still very protective!

Piper.. I couldn't think of a good name for her for awhile. She was SO tiny when I got her and would follow me around everywhere. I was always calling her my little "Pip", but didn't want to name a dog Pip.. so, Piper.

Sako is named after the gun company. NOT the watch! His name at the breeders was "Ammo", but I wasn't a huge fan.. still wanted to stick with the gun theme though.

I also won't reuse names.. which is really difficult when you've had as many pets as I have! And if I know a dog personally, I won't use that name. Like I wanted to name Sako "Ruger", but my trainer friend has a Dobe named Ruger, so that was out.
