If you could have a new pet, what would it be and what would you name it?

(i didn’t have enough room in the title, but please include gender and breed)I would like a cocker spaniel dog, female, and name? Maybe… um…… uh….. Zaza Dizzle!!!!!!! Hee hee where did I get that name?!?!  Me of course! Oh well…….

my presents

The wii game is Lego Harry Potter-you just go through Harry’s first 4 years at Hogwarts-and the D.S. game is Pokemon HeartGold which comes with a Pokewalker. All you do on the Pokewalker is get enough watts to unlock new routes. On HeartGold, you just beat the gym leaders and fill up the Pokedex. Emerald and his sister gave me a Minty Moose Webkinz and the book The Middle Moffat. I really like all of my presents this year.
