Here’s the story of naming our current housemates:
After we purchased a home in Louisville in 2013, we got our 1st little mutt, a Shorkie. My bestie friend (yes, the same one on Beyond the Pause) came up with his name. Winston Churchill Downs. Perfect, right?
The guilt of leaving him boarded alone while vacationing was heartbreaking for us, so after a year and a half, we got him a sister so he wouldn’t be lonely.
She is a Zuchon (aka Teddy bear dog). Another overpriced custom mix.
So, while contemplating a name for her, I researched Winston Churchill's sister’s name. He did not have a sister, but his wife's name was Clementine.
Hence, Clementine Churchill Downs.
Soooo… Clemmy is Winston’s sister wife and that’s ok because we live in Kentucky now.
My central Indiana homies laugh hysterically at this. My Kentucky friends smugly smirk.
Feel free to upload a pic of your beloveds.
