Introducing Mandy Moosedog


This is Mandy. Mandy is our "middle" dog. She was raised by Bernice, our eldest.

Mandy is a dog of many names--so many that I can only give a sampling here. Her most frequently used nickname is "Moose". Just let her land in your lap once and that nickname will become self-explanatory.

Other nicknames:

1) Mandlebrot--I was reading an article about mandlebrots, and Mandy got a new nickname.

2) Brot--from the above.

3) Bratwurst--see #2.

4) Mander.

5) Manderpotamus.

6) Mandel--another from mandlebrot.

7) Mandela.

8) Winnie--from #7.

Trust me, the list goes on and on. Marc could probably spend 15 minutes reciting all of them. The funny thing is that Mandy picks up on all of them. She knows which ones are hers and doesn't respond to names that refer to the other two dogs.

She's a sweet kid, despite her occasional issues (like eating our furniture, walls, carpet). Despite her desire to consume the house, we love her.

Mandy is cute!
You know, my grandma had a dog similar to Mandy for a short time ... and we called her Winnie, too! For the same reason!
