Help me name this critter!

We have a new pup! She is a Terripoo (Yorkshire Terrier and Miniature Poodle) weighing in at 2.75 lbs at 10 weeks old. She was named Sissy, but somehow that name just not fit her. Very energetic, loves to play, loves to tussle with Fritz, our Wirehair Dachshund. Feisty little girl, not afraid of much. Any suggestions???

    That's a wonderful name, our first Poodle way back in 1970 I named her Daisy, she live to 17 years old! Awesome dog too!

    Or "GO AWAY"

    My nephew used to dogsit a couple of keeshonds. The owners had taught them "get a job" which meant "go away" or "leave me alone." Our whole family has adopted "get a job" as command. Doesn't help with naming, but we've had fun with it.

    I would suggest Mixie or Mixi.. She is a mix, it pronounces well and it short, sweet, and kinda spunky too!
