I suppose it was inevitable. Our Growlithe is now officially known as Skylar. It didn't matter that he looks like a canine. Helena's dead set on it and she's got him coming at the call of the name now.
She's asked if we can get a dog house. Of course, after asking for it, she promptly told me that he still needed to sleep inside. I think she wants the dog house more as a play house of her own than for him.
