moxie roxy!


roxy - it is funny how you name your dogs but then attach like 800 nicknames to them as well... like they understand. anyway our current fav for roxy is MOXIE ROXY! karl didn't believe me that MOXIE was a REAL word... so here is the definition:

mox·ie
n. Slang

-The ability to face difficulty with spirit and courage.
-Aggressive energy; initiative: “His prose has moxie, though it rushes and stumbles from a pent-up surge” (Patricia Hampl).
-Skill; know-how.

  2. Moxie...I'll have to fit that into my vocabulary more often now. Thanks for the info, Webster. (Ironically, Webster was the name of my cat growning up, yep, good ol Webbie.) Ruger gets RuRu, Rugamous, Kanga-Ruger (when she jumps up and down), brown dog...I could go on.
