There has not been one peep from a possible owner. I would say that it is settled that Ramona is now the owner. She did not keep the name Mabel, though, so I still have that for my next little girl. I favor those old southern belle type names. Had a Samantha, and a Sophie already, and a Pearl. (Okay, don't use this against me, but she was actually a cat and I wrote her name Purr'l, as if anyone cared, but pronounced it Pearl.)
Kind of like Hazel and Hattie too as potential names. But may not use them for a good while. Charlie and Cassie have a good many years left, and the boys, Chef, Paco, and J.D. do too. They do not mind the girls of course, but some of the girls can be a little snippy with them.
Agree that Ramona is now officially the Mom of said beagle pup!
I'm just so glad it worked out so well for the dog (being rescued from danger) and for Ramona, in search of a pet.
I have a neighbor that has a miniature beagle. That dog is adorable!
