Name my Turtle

[Thief]

now ….up front....
let's not knee jerk to some juvenile responses.....

I do mean....turtle
box turtle
doesn't have red eyes....so likely a female

the puppy we have brought the item into the house
must have thought it to be some kind of toy

caught the item before the dog started chewing on it

so now I have a new pet
any experts on shelled reptiles?

Name it Raphael if it's temperamental, Michaelangelo if it's free-spirited, Donatello if it looks smart, Leonardo if it's all of those things

 

[Thief]

but I think it's a female

 

[SalixIncendium]

How about CHEWbacca?

 

[PoetPhilosopher]

bit I thinks it's a female

Raphee, Mikey Joe, Donna, and Leia.

Glad to have helped!

she went straight to the front door
wedging between obstacles to get there

OK Charlene . . . unless she is LGBT. Charlie works.

How about "Tooter"? "Tooter Turtle."

"Drizzle, Drazzle, Drozzle, Drome; time for this one to come home."

"Drizzle, Drazzle, Drozzle, Drome; time for this one to come home."

Or because she's a female turtle...
"Hooter"

Either way, I hope that @Thief and his turtle are very Happy Together:

Finally a thread about the most serious of all problems we are facing today - much more serious than climate change, Trump, Iran, trade wars and the like.

What we do here will set the pattern for the world for the next 1000 years as the "butterfly effect" has proven.
