Poor Meatball! Not a nice name for a cute pooch.

I enjoyed the article. Was fun to read.

I thought Adam Sandlers dog was Matzah Ball? Maybe I got that one wrong, he may have referred to him as such..funny though.
Great article, interesting!

So are you named after the llama or was it the other way around?:-)

Pet snakes...pet tigers...to each his own...
I'll stick with our Schnauzers, cats, guinea pigs, fish and birds! :)

Thanks for all the encouraging comments everyone!

Francie:

Matzah Ball is Yiddish for Meatball which may explain it.

Anne:

I can't claim that one. I have chosen Louie Jerome as my pen name because it was great grandmother's name. She was of French extraction. As far as I know, we have no llamas of either variety (lama), in the family. LOL

Louie, this was an interesting and lovely article. I love Venus' dog. He's so cute. So maybe the llama was named after your Great Grandma. . .lol
