I think you'd have to shorten it to Quasinil to get it to roll off the tongue. Though as far as I'm concerned the matter is settled--Ford for a big dog, or Sputnik for a small dog.

"Quasinil" looks like one of those brand names for a drug. QUASINIL: Just one little yellow pill a day keeps you safe from the damage of toxic chafing. Some users report ennui, burping, and inability to sit with the knees together, but not bad enough in most to stop taking Quasinil. Why wait? Ask your doctor today.

But you should get a dog. You own your place. Are there any anti-dog rules there?

A Sputnik is bigger than a Ford, I'm pretty sure.

Um, er, I hate to disillusion you, but I don't actually like dogs. Genetically engineered wolf mutants, you know. I avoid them like the plague. I really couldn't live with any critter above a bunny rabbit on the food chain. I just think naming them is kind of fun.

My theory is that a dog named Ford would be one of them big ol' dawgs what rides in a rusty old Ford pickup truck, tongue hanging out the driver's side window when you pass him on the interstate. A dog named Sputnik would be small enough to ride in a beach-ball sized satellite. Might even have an anemic little bark that puts one in mind of Sputnik's beep-beep-beep.

Ah yes. Of course. Maybe I was thinking of a sputnik, the common noun meaning "fart" in my (long-ago) ex-'s family. THAT could be bigger'n a Ford.
