She is usually a wild-eyed whirlwind and a natural enemy to in-focus photography. I feel so lucky to have captured this :)

I had to think about this one for a while. I don't know for sure if the name you chose would be considered offensive, but it very well might raise some eyebrows. To be safe, you might want to consider renaming them "Tikvah," instead of "Hatikvah." That way your dog's name still means, "Hope," and keeps the general idea I think you all were going for.

Thank you for this. Then I won't go through the bureaucracy of changing her official paperwork since we already mostly use the shorter Tikvah. I'll just stop using her full name in public and in writing :)

Aaaahhh, such a cute pupper! I'm grateful you cared enough to ask, and that you are being thoughtful. Hope you have many years together!
