About the 'Cheese' Theme...
The pups will have an AKC (American Kennel Club) registered name, which usually consists of several parts: the Kennel where they were bred (Mirasol), possibly the Kennel of their new home, and an actual name (not necessarily the same as their every-day name). In many cases (including this litter), there is a litter theme. These little pups belong to the 'Cheese Litter' - puns involving cheese... Below, are the many suggestions people have come up with to date. If you come up with some new ones, send them to the webmaster (jrines@jrines.com), and I will add them to the list.
