Thread Name: Why are dogs called Blue?
Subject: RE: Why are dogs called Blue?
The only dog I've ever known shared an apartment in Manhatten, and later a house on Martha's Vineyard, with Mark and Teresa Lovewell, he of the Vineyard Gazette. The only possible reason for naming him, a yellow dog, was for the sake of the song, as he would always perk up when he heard the howl after "Betcha 5 dollars he's a good dog, too."
