Loki vs. River

Since we now have two dogs I thought I would blog about both of them and do a little Since we Photnowcomparison on the two.
Loki
Breed: Labrador Retriever (pure)
Age when adopted: 7 weeks Age now: 5 years
Weight then: 8.2 lbs Weight now: 62 lbs (solid muscle)
Color: Yellow
D.O.B.- February 8, 2006
Literal Meaning of Name: Loki is the Norse God of Mischief
Story behind the name: We were searching for the perfect name for her when I suggested Loki, my parents asked "What does that mean" I explained and we all decided it was perfect for our mischievous puppy
Nickname (s): Lokilu, Little Rodent (dad's nickname),
Fave toy (s): Frankenmoo and Squeaky the squirrel
Song: I like to Move it (this is her theme song), Brown Eyed Girl (this is what I sing to her), and the Nudzzle song (silly song mom sings to her in the morning

River
Breed: Labrador Retriever mix (dad was pure Golden Retriever, mom was Lab mix)
Color: Black w/ white splash on chest
Age at adoption: 9 weeks Age now: 11 weeks
Weight then: 8 lbs (skinny little girl) Weight now: 16 lbs (starting to gain weight)
D.O.B- June 23, 2011
Literal Meaning of Name: a natural stream of water of fairly large size flowing in a definate course or channel or series of divering and converging channels (ty dictionary.com)
Story behind name: Again, coming up with a name was hard. I was really pushing for Sahara (as she was getting really big drinks of water), Dad came up with River b/c she was constantly peeing. River suits her perfectly as she is constantly taking in large amounts of water and then getting rid of it.
Fave Toy (s): Draco the Dragon, whatever Loki has
Nickname: Little girl, River Rat (dad's), River Pup (mine...interestingly enough that was the name of my univerisitys former mascot),
Song: None as of yet.
