4. Steph Corwin July 9th, 2008 at 10:43 am

   Both choices are so cute! I love either one!

5. hillary July 9th, 2008 at 10:45 am

   Oh the cuteness. It kills me.

6. Chris July 9th, 2008 at 10:53 am

   Winston!

   He was a Ghostbuster people!!!

7. Ben July 9th, 2008 at 10:56 am

   Winston. And while you’re at it…rename Edie “Winnifred” so they can match. DO IT.

8. sara July 9th, 2008 at 10:56 am

   since its my dog too and it was supposed to be mine mine i think my vote should count as at least 5.

9. cdp July 9th, 2008 at 10:58 am

   DUDE. So cute.

   ps I voted for Winston, although I like either name.

10. Erin July 9th, 2008 at 11:02 am

    Winston is an awesome name!

11. Jessica July 9th, 2008 at 11:10 am

    Winston is a serious, refined pup. And gorgeous.

12. katelin July 9th, 2008 at 11:29 am

    such similar names, but both fantastic :) i say watson though, woo.

13. Angela July 9th, 2008 at 11:35 am

    I think I like Winston just a LITTLE bit better than Watson.

14. Meghan July 9th, 2008 at 11:45 am

    I already voted, but have to comment too to say Winston. Cute name for a cute doggie :)

15. sizzle July 9th, 2008 at 12:15 pm

    I voted for Watson only because Winston is the name the Fella and I want to name our bulldog (that we can’t get yet). Either name is awesome, obviously. ;-)

16. Rachel July 9th, 2008 at 12:17 pm

    So cute…I love Winston!

17. Alicia July 9th, 2008 at 12:39 pm

    Both are winners, but I love Winston. It sounds smart. But I guess Watson does too… See? Both winners.

18. chasingparadise July 9th, 2008 at 12:49 pm

    I voted for Watson…in that picture, those eyes just scream mystery! Mysteries like Sherlock Holmes. “My dear Watson…”

    Wait, do I have my stories right? haha.

19. alexa July 9th, 2008 at 1:04 pm

    my vote was for winston : )

20. Aaron July 9th, 2008 at 1:07 pm

    I go for Watson, just so you could pretend to be Sherlock Holmes and then turn to him and say, “Elementary my dear Watson!”

    That’s reason enough.

21. Tiffany July 9th, 2008 at 1:52 pm

    I’m all for Watson!

22. Allie July 9th, 2008 at 1:54 pm

    Winston is an adorable name!

23. mandy July 9th, 2008 at 2:22 pm

    I voted for Winston, but both names are cute!

24. poodlegoose July 9th, 2008 at 2:30 pm

    I vote for “wiener dog,” personally ;)

25. Supergirl July 9th, 2008 at 2:39 pm

    I can’t get the poll thing to work. Or, I just accidentally voted 10 times. I get a little impatient with the mouse sometimes.

    Aaaaanyway…I like Winston. So distinguished.

26. Matt July 9th, 2008 at 2:47 pm

    I’m with watson all the way!

    Winston makes me think of the cigarettes….uck.

27. cozysister July 9th, 2008 at 3:20 pm

    Definitely Watson, so you can call him “my dear Watson” with a faux English accent.

28. L.C.T. July 9th, 2008 at 4:10 pm

    Nooo how is Winston winning over Watson? I hear Winston and I just think Winston churchill… Sherlock Holmes’ assistant is far better as a name than a PM!

29. e. July 9th, 2008 at 5:21 pm

    I can’t wait to find out which one wins. Maybe you should go with Winston-Watson just to watch people try to pronounce it ;)

30. e.p. July 9th, 2008 at 5:40 pm

    Hmm. Apparently, a lot of people have dogs named Winston. And it’s my boy’s name!

    My vote is for Watson. ;)

31. Kerri Anne July 9th, 2008 at 5:46 pm

    I love! the brindle coloring he has in his coat; Iggy has that, too.

32. Claire July 9th, 2008 at 5:47 pm

    I voted for Winston–Watson is equally adorable, but I feel like Winston would be easier to shout across the dog park or something. I don’t know. I took one look at that picture and my brain melted–he’s the cutest.

33. K July 9th, 2008 at 8:41 pm

    I picked watson. very manly.

34. janet July 9th, 2008 at 10:44 pm

    awwwww the cuteness! he is def a Winnie. Is that too girly of a nickname?

35. Britt July 10th, 2008 at 7:43 am

    Winston is the name of my future doggie. :) Its been named for a year. So I like Winston :) Watson is also adorable!

36. nico July 10th, 2008 at 11:07 am

    I can totally picture him saying ” ’sup, mang?”

    f’n adorable city right here, everyone. more puppy pics!

37. currently thinking about - Oh! How Lovely! July 11th, 2008 at 9:19 am

    [...] guys obviously love Winston more than Watson. The final vote was 97-49, in favor of Winston and so it shall be! I’m going [...]
