Most of us try to be unique when it comes to naming our sweet puppies when we bring them home. With ours, the whole family had fun in deciding the name. The kids gravitated towards “Lucky” and when she wagged her tail, it stuck. After doing research, I found that Lucky was one of the most common names out there for dogs when we got her eight years ago. The good news: times have changed.
