I did a little checking here and I believe that once a dog has a name, it stays. You can improvise or embellish or shorten, but don't change her name. Spelling change is fine - which brings me to my checking here - GAUWEI - English for Once Again or afresh or all over again - pronounced go-way! So, once again you can start afresh or begin all over again - Gauwei! I have a quote from Martin Luther (known as the nailer of the 95 Theses, the first member of the Lutheran church) who said, "Be though comforted, Little Dog. Thou, too, in resurrection, shall have a Little Golden Tail." This leads me to believe that dogs are angels and instead of the halo we are going to be getting, they will be getting a "Little Golden Tail." Also, "God will prepare everthing for our perfect happiness in Heaven, and if it takes my dog being there, I believe she'll be there." Billy Graham
