Default A New Property in my future?!

I belong to a terrier club on-line -- with many members all around the world. When they saw my post about the new dining room set I ordered, one of them suggested to me to do a dog-themed placed, named after my Westie.

So now the creative juices are flowing -- don't tell hubby I'm after another structure to build! One suggested a pet store, but I don't like pet stores that sell animals, so I thought I would make a place for doggies that has a boutique, a grooming section, and posh boarding facility...

I know there are a lot of different dogs available and stuff for dogs like beds, bowls, and even grooming tables, and what I can't buy, I can probably make.

So here's the challenge -- IF and WHEN I decide to go with this idea: can you think of a clever name for the place, keeping in mind what it is, that would include my dog's name in it?

My furry little pal is "officially" called Rufus, but we all know him as Roo (unless he's naughty -- only THEN does he get called Rufus!)

With all the creative minds out there, this should be fun to see what you come up with!

(And oh, if you can think of other things I can include, that would be fun, too!)

P.S. Oh yes, NOW I can understand you multiple property owners very well -- it just takes ONE LITTLE IDEA or suggestion, doesn't it?! Ah yes, NOW I get it! And I thought ONE HOUSE would be enough!)

Looking forward to your ideas and suggestions!!!

What a nice idea to do a dog boutique/grooming. Sorry can't think of any clever names.
Can't wait to see it if you do it.

I love the idea, like you not keen on pet shops, but a boutique/upmarket boarding would be fun.

For the name, what about

Pets R Roos (watch out for the copyright lawsuit lol)
Luxuroo Pet Place
Roo's Palace
Rufus Roo's Pet Place
Roo's Emporium
Roo & Co

Some good, some not so good but they might help you come up with the perfect name!

Hi Vermont,

What on earth made you think that? I started out not being much interested, then I thought I would get one and get it out of my system, now I have 3 and a gypsy caravan. It's very contagious and I don't think you can be innoculated! Too late now!

Nice idea the dog grooming place, very different. Hope you come up with a name.
