I'm needing a proper survivor/strong as fuck name.

(The dog was a puppy, and didn't leave any puncture wounds. Just some pneumo thorocia, a lot of internal bruising, and a possible broken or bruised rib. She is currently planted firmly next to my leg on the couch with a hospital tent waiting for her when I go to sleep.)

Her name is furiousa!

Welcome to servitude.

Learn it, live it, love it.

Edit: As to the name, monosyllabic names with hard consonants are tough.

Ike. Rick. Zeb. Al. Etc. you get the idea.

But, suck up that mansosphere shit, and name your owner "Dominus/Dominatrix."

I am definitely NOT the master in this ๐Ÿคž short lived relationship.

It's OK, buddy. Everyone says that at first.

Post some picks at year 3 of your servitude.

This little fuck was estimated at six weeks @ 1.1 lbs. The current "fat cat" I have was registered at .4 lbs when I first got her @3 weeks. Fuck, i'm just digging my hole deeper aren't I?

But no! I made it a point to let this one go! I want her to be healthy, and loved by another family.

I do not have or want children, I was just raised by an awesome mom who taught me empathy.

I never wanted human children, either.

But I ended up being a cat or dog dad, occasionally, through the years.

I try. I try, my friend.

Best wishes in your parenthood. Be kind.
