Micro chip and naming day for all the puppies

Today all the puppies, even the newest ones, had micro chips inserted. This is also the day they got their temporary names. We have to call them something while they are here and I don't like referring to them by a number or a color. The names I give them are only temporary until they find a family. The families get to pick the official name. I like giving the litters a theme. Jill has difficulty correctly pronouncing the letter "L" and needs to practice. Josie's puppies all got an "L" name: Luke, Lewis, Lonnie, Leon, Leland, Lilly. Two of the pups, Louis and Mira have families that already chose their names. Lily is going to breed for us. She already has a guardian family waiting for her. See if you can guess the theme of Rosie's litter (feel free to leave a comment): Steve, (Uncle) Charley, Mike, Robbie, Ernie, Katie, Sally. For the bonus points: Who were Katie and Sally?

After their micro chips and naming, they each had their picture taken. After the first two pups, Luke and Leon, I accidently pushed something on the camera and I wasn't able to get it to focus it after that. That means they were the only two to get a decent photo. The others are a bit out of focus. Man, I hate that.
Luke is Liuda's favorite puppy. He has a cute liver nose.
Leon is such a handsome fellow. I'm wondering if he is going to have a fleece coat when he grows up.

Oh hey, I forgot to tell you something really important yesterday. DaVinci and Tinkerbelle got married. Have you met Tink yet? Parkside Tinkerbelle is a multigen Goldendoodle. Wait a minute, yes, I told you about her on the 10th, just didn't show you her picture. Tinkerbelle (Tink) is 20 pounds and 17 inches tall. See how little Tink is? She makes Jill look big. Tink came over this morning for a few hours to hang out with DaVinci. She was shy at first and missed her mom. After a couple of hours she and DaVinci got to "know" each other in the biblical sense. Since DaV is bigger than Tink, they didn't even need the Luuuuv Couch.
