Pilau ended up with his name because when we went to see him the first time, the breeder told us he was a tricolour bearded collie, which are apparently quite desirable amongst the show set. And he was three very distinct colours: a deep chocolate brown, with white collie flash round his collar and the back of his neck, and some white on his legs and belly. He also had little flashes of bright ginger on the backs of his legs and a few other places including the sides of his eyes.
So...celebration pilau rice usually comes in three colours *smiles* |

Same here I'm afriad. Diz is Babba-lou (because I can rhyme it with What's up with you, Babba-lou?) Babba-boy (no excuse for that one) Troublicious Boychick Monkey-trousers (esp when flaunting his bum) Monstarry Angel-Pie and from that just Pie or Piya Quote:
Now tell us the embarrassing names you call him. Infi and I have already confessed. |
Oh gosh...so many...
Pilster, Mr P., Pilau Poppet, Pilau Brown Bread, Muffin, muppet, Baby boy, sweetie pie, beastie bum, The pudster, Pud, pudding, Pilau pudding. My very own brahn baby (fast show ;p). And sometimes I tell him he's my beautiful beardie with long brown hair (which is a bastardisation of a Smack the Pony sketch). Oh yeah, and sometimes I call him Poor Pilau of the Poorly Paw. I use show quotes a lot with him. Like sometimes I'l tell him: I am your mummy. I will always be your mummy (from DoctorWho, The Empty Child). I talk to him a lot. I tell him he's my little wolf. My little wolf in lamb's clothing. I tell him that it's not right when people say he' a bad dog...they don't understand. It's not easy being Brown. And it's so unfair when peoplecast aspersions because, at the end of the day, he's just doin' his doggy best, as he understands it, with his doggy brain, and nobody, nobody could ask any more o fhim than that. This is the sort of shit I am saying to him whilst stroking him :p Oh yeah, and I tell him he's a good dog. A clever dog, and so polite. Never raises his voice, never shouts. He's just really, really good, and really really quiet. And that's why everybody loves Pilau. They all love Pilau, 'cause he's so good. |
Bravo, Dana! :)

I have more, I can confess.
Mebbe we need a new thread. Single Women Who Talk to Their Pets But Will Smack You in the Chops if You Suggest Said Pets Are Child Substitutes. If Diz was a child he'd have been taken into care by now, the things I sometimes say to him. Oh and on account of him being dyslexlical. |
Pilau would by now have progressed from a young offenders institute to proper prison.

Autumn Nicole - My JRT doggie. Her nickname is Tummy (AuTUM - get it?)
Spiderman - a very tomboyish girl kitty who is black. Zoey (the new momma!) - a long haired black kitty with the attitude of a dumb blonde. Carly - a calico who is as sweet as candy. Nickname Carlita-Pumpkin Pita. Stella - a tabby who is really a boy but we thought was a girl for a loooong time. Poor thing. and Harry. RIP Harry. He died two New Year Days ago. We called him Hare the Bear. |
Beau, my first very own totally unshared cat, was almost always just Bo Bo.
Turbo is the 'little one' most times. And that just comes from when he was a little kitty and I would put him on the bed and whisper to him to go to sleep. Which he usually did. Now when I whisper to him, he will still blink his eyes like he is getting sleepy. My sweet little one. |
We call our dog Cleo Ki-ki mostly because Max still only pronounces her name Kee-o. I call my cat Shadow, shaddy baddy because he is a bad kitty sometimes. We have a cat called Skinny who gets Skinny Mini a lot because she really is a little cat. Gizmo gets Gizzy a lot and Dolly gets Dolly Wolly. At other times they are all referred to in profane language.

My blue Australian cattle dog will actually come to "shut yer piehole" Cattle dogs have a keening kind of shriek. The phrase is warranted!!

Big Sarge.
I am worried and too far away to help. We only have an internet relationship but I know he's one of the good guys, he's so thoughtful, loves his family, has served his country and now feels abandoned in the hell of ill health. And I can't do anything except try to think of kind words. |
Sometimes that's all we can do. Your caring thoughts mean so much to him, I'm sure. Knowing people care is sometimes all we need to keep putting one foot in front of the other.
Get well soon, Sarge. If you do I'll mail Sundae to you, after I win the lottery. ;) |
Not in duct tape I hope!

I was thinking saran wrap. ;)
