Snippet:
″What about Yuki?″
The tiny white fluffball suckled Ray’s little finger. The pup was still only a few weeks old, but growing fast. ″Yuki? Yuki for what?″
″For his name. It’s Japanese for snow.″
Leave it to Ben to know another name for the white stuff. The little guy snuffled and whined so Ray leaned over the wire barrier and returned him to his husky mama Hazel and two hungry siblings. ″Yuki, huh?″
″I know we’ve bandied several names around, but since he’s all white, I thought it might be appropriate.″
″Guess it’s classier than Snowball or Bubba.″
Ben chuckled. ″You really want to name our new dog Bubba?″
″Not really. Snowball would be even worse. Imagine calling out either of those names when we’re trying to get his fuzzy butt back into the cabin after a call of nature.″
″I am, which is why I’m suggesting Yuki.″
Ray thought about it and stared at the wriggling pup snuggled up close to his mother. Ben had been reluctant to get another dog, but had come around after the pups were born. Ray knew he said yes just to please him. If letting Ben choose the name helped him feel better about being a new pup dad, so be it. ″Yuki it is.″
