What rhymes with Bear??

Well, we seem to have a new addition to the BC clan. His name is Bear, (yuck, I don't like the name) So put on your thinking caps, and help him find another name I can tag onto the front or back of Bear, so that I can start to phase out the name to change it. Bear is a little over a year old and semi started. He is a very sweet dog, and has a lovely biddable temperament. He is keen to work, and a very easy dog to handle. I had gone out and looked at him several weeks ago, but had to for a few personal reasons decide to pass on him. Well, I got a call the other day from the gal that was training him, asking if I could make an offer on him, and that any offer would be considered. Due to the economy at the moment, I told her I just couldn't afford to buy a dog at any price right now, and even though he was a nice little dog, I appreciated her thinking about me, but just couldn't expend the monies for another dog at the moment. By the end of our conversation, she had given me the dog and we were making arrangements on where to meet so she could deliver the dog to me that day. Amazing how things work out some times. I like Bear, he is a nice little dog. Very easy to be around, well mannered, and has a recall to die for. All the other dogs, after the initial pushing and shoving and establishing their places have accepted him and he them, and everyone is getting along pretty good. Hank has his nose a bit out of joint about him right now. He has been the baby around here, and is a bit of a Mamma's boy, so having another dog that wants to be Velcro on me has him very worried that I will love the new dog more than I love him. Dogs. Such emotional creatures. He does, in his defense, try to engage Bear in play, but Bear is just not into it yet. I can see though that he is starting to become a little interested in Hanks puppy antics, and am sure that in time Hank will win him over and have a new buddy to play with. Hank can be very persuasive and persistent. I worked Bear on sheep two times yesterday, and he did a nice job with what he knows. Again, he is a very easy dog to handle, has good balance, and reads his sheep well. He moves off pressure nicely and isn't wide at all. I didn't see any slicing and no gripping, so it looks as though we have some thing to work with albeit he is a bit slow just yet, but then, I'm use to working with quick Chris, so having a dog like Bear around may just be refreshing. He is house broke and has wonderful manners. What a wonderful gift. ( as opposed to some one Else's problems, which, has happened to me in the past) I am pleased that the folks that were in charge of Bear's placement would feel that I make an acceptable home for Bear. That says a lot and makes me feel good. So, I'm looking forward to working more with Bear, and getting to know him, though he pretty much has "bear ed" all insofar as who he is already. Just a fella that wants nothing more than to be loved, work sheep, and please me, and is eager and willing for all three. So, we welcome Bear into the pack, and look forward to seeing him develop his abilities.
