This is Bindy Sue. We met her at the local pet store this weekend at an adoption event. She was a stray, malnourished and scared, brought into the Lakeview Humane Society. She's been living with a foster family and is crate-trained and learning her manners. They think she's a couple of years old. She's very eager to please, seems sweet and lovey. Aside from the unfortunate name*, she's perfect!
She appears to be a Catahoula Leopard Cur, and yes, that's really a breed. It's the state dog of Louisiana, known for rounding up wild boars, which should come in handy when there are six boys in the house. Also 'coon hunting, not actually all that useful.
We've been talking to the foster mom, who appears to be the Humane Society in Lakeview (small town). No one's committed anything yet, but it looks good. We'd get her on New Year's, a good way to start our new life together.
So what sounds enough like Bindy Sue to not confuse her if we change her name? Given her Louisiana heritage, a two-word name seems fitting. Lindy Lou? Cindy Lou Who? Suggestions?
*Bindi Sue is the name of Steve Irwin's slightly-too-adorable daughter.
