Why My Dog's Name Is PT


My friends often ask me why my dog's name is PT? Because my husband once sold Chrysler vehicles, most people think it is because of the PT Cruiser...but no folks, it's not.
Perhaps PT has the most unusual dog name on the planet. I searched for weird pet names and while there were some good ones, none could top PT's real name.
We got PT from a friend who found 4 Labrador mix puppies on the side of the road. Our friend (who I won't name here as he might be embarrassed because he's just like JOE), owns a company named Taos Sanitary Supply and provides our Ford dealership with paper products.
In any event, our friend here told us if we took one of these labs he would give us a FREE case of paper towels, hence the name, PT. As my husband says, we really couldn't call him Taos Sanitary Supply right?
After we brought PT home to our other 4 adult dogs, they didn't much care for PT and his puppy playfulness. We called our friend back and said, "hey can we have another one, perhaps a girl to play with PT?" That's how we ended up with our 6th dog, SN or sanitary napkin! Oh people no way would I call a dog sanitary napkin! Do you think jeanlovesyoulongtime has LOST HER MIND?
Anyway, while PT's name is really paper towel, we did give the girl a cute name...Melanie. And there you have it folks, that is why my dog's name is PT and I don't think I want anymore puppies from the Taos Sanitary Supply guy...paper plate, paper cup, toilet paper, it could go on and on and that would give jeanlovesyoulongtime a big headache!
