Anyway, we're back in heat here, so I came back to visit, and I see I didn't respond to comment. Huh.<br/><br/>JDoe, there will be no raping here--no male dogs allowed inside the house ever!<br/><br/>Judith, cats are HORRIBLE. I swear they're even worse here in Italy, or maybe it's just that there's more of them around me. But ugh!!!!<br/><br/>NYC, they definitely think I'm weird for having Luna inside too...but you know what? I actually know of an Italian family here now that does the same--with two dogs. We're spreading the love!<br/><br/>Cherrye, gelsomina probably--jasmine. Cute, right? Yes, Bobby is actually a very popular dog name here. Weird.<br/><br/>TheOG, I completely agree. And anyway, Romano is enormous. And Luna's not. And that's not a good combo for doggie love I don't think (not that I'd really know).<br/><br/>Shan, yeah it was funny to me when I read it after it happened...now that I'm the middle of it again, well....<br/><br/>Gil, thank goodness my windows are high enough off the ground that they can't! Good point!<br/><br/>Giulia, Luna really sleeps in this position a lot. Guess it's comfy but I can't imagine how.<br/><br/>Writer, if you're not doing anything, we could use those caps (for noise) around here too....<br/><br/>Anonymous, what a weird thing we, or our moms I guess, have in common! I've never heard it anywhere else either. <br/><br/>Franca, another Bobby! So it's not just here. I could definitely go for naming pets after favorite candy...Here Snickers! Aw ;) I’m a little late in responding to comments here…seems I was too occupied keep away the suitors. Anyway, we’re back in heat here, so I came back to visit, and I see I didn’t respond to comment.

JDoe, there will be no raping here–no male dogs allowed inside the house ever!

Judith, cats are HORRIBLE. I swear they’re even worse here in Italy, or maybe it’s just that there’s more of them around me. But ugh!!!!

Shan, yeah it was funny to me when I read it after it happened…now that I’m the middle of it again, well….

Gil, thank goodness my windows are high enough off the ground that they can’t! Good point!

Giulia, Luna really sleeps in this position a lot. Guess it’s comfy but I can’t imagine how.

Writer, if you’re not doing anything, we could use those caps (for noise) around here too….

Anonymous, what a weird thing we, or our moms I guess, have in common! I’ve never heard it anywhere else either.

Franca, another Bobby! So it’s not just here. I could definitely go for naming pets after favorite candy…Here Snickers! Aw ;)

My mom's dog, Nero, would easily fall for Luna :).<br/><br/>And my cousin Mike, who lives in Puglia, baptized his dogs with funny names too...Prince, Zeus, Nebbia, Bobby and (God rest his sweet doggie soul) Klaus.<br/><br/>Speaking of funny pet names, my budgies are Tic Tac and Smarties. I'm determined to name them all after my favorite candies. Haha. Very funny and adorable post. My mom’s dog, Nero, would easily fall for Luna :).

My mom, from PA also, says that too! I have never heard anyone else say that. As I was reading this post, I couldn’t believe reading that you said your mom says “they are nasty as cat shit”.

Thanks for stopping by to say hi.<br/><br/>My parents bred huskies when I was a wee little writer. It was a dangerous proposition indeed when one of the females was in that special time of the year, keeping every wiry haired mongrel in town off of her. I remember being sent outside with my cap guns (the only time I was encouraged to make noise) and scare the lonely punks away. Greeting as well from your 2000 bloggers neighbor.

Luna looks very bendy in that photo. "Posizione porno" sounds about right, it's no wonder the dogs are after her! ;p<br/> Gotta love those names though. Cute post.

Dogs in love! Or, you know. And I think Romano Prodi is very handsome, though it sounds as if he's a little on the freaky side. Luna deserves a one-woman man ... er, one-dog dog.

I was literally lol - once again, the family thinks I am a pazza Americana! <br/><br/>I am amazed at the English language names these dogs have. Bobby? Really? I can't even pronounce one of the neighbor-dog's names. It is phonetically-speaking (at least for me) Jesul-mena...I dunno. Great post, Michelle!

I liked how you broke it down, detailing the suitors (incl. photos) and how they try to "step to" Luna. LOL.<br/><br/>My family in the Caribbean think it's bizarre how Americans allow pets inside. My parents have two cats now and they live outside. Seeing how it never goes below 75 degrees it's a pretty sweet life chasing salamanders, chilling under a mango tree, etc. This is one of the funny posts I have ever read.
