Thread: What should we name him?

How about Fritz--in honor of Fritz Bracht (sp.?)--the Dovo master straight razor maker?

That I have to say is cool... Is he a pet?

Kaiser is a great name. My shepherd's name is Kaiya, I like hard "k" names for the GSD's. Either way, they are the greatest dogs in the world.

I like the sounds of Kojak for a German Shepherd.

He is only 2 years old and pretty friendly as far as rams go,and he is with about 10 ladies as we speak.We breed now to have lambs in Jan/Feb.

I say: Shilo--Zeus--Bow--Cheelo--Rainbow--Scruff--Mortee--Rain--Thunder--

These r via my own creativity!

You got me curious to a Oxford Ram, so I had to look it up: The pure Oxford or Oxford cross lamb is particularly suited to the home freezer market because the large, lean carcases allow larger joints with more meat to be prepared. Oxford lamb is also found to have excellent flavour and eating qualities, making it ideal for premium quality markets.

Sounds tasty...

How about the name Schlitz (like the beer)?

We have considered some of the hard "K"'s, but are concerned about verbal recognition and dissemination. Anyone have any experience here? I know they are super smart dogs, but don't want to add to the confusion of trying to work and train them...

Yes they are tasty indeed. They have a mild flavor compared to the strong taste of New Zeland or Aussi lamb.Also the Oxford lambs are one of the fastest growing lambs at 3/4 to 1 lb PER DAY!!!!! At birth we have twins in the 12-14 lb,so thats 24-28 pounds that mama is humping around.
