My neighbor’s grandson was over her house the other day. He is about 7 years old. My neighbor and her grandson were at the fence petting my dog. I walked out to talk to my neighbor. Her grandson kept calling my dog, “Baby”. I noticed it but I didn’t say anything. About that time the postman walked up, my dog ran to him because she knew he would have a treat for her. He said here you go, Millie. I said, Millie sit. (I always make her sit when I give her a treat).
The little boy looked confused, his grandmother said, I thought her name was Baby? I said her name is Millie but I call her Baby most of the time. The grandmother said, All I ever heard you call her was Baby. We laughed. The little boy said, So what is her name? I said you can call her anything you want to. He said, I think I will call her Baby. I said OK, she is my baby and she sure acts like one sometimes.
