Capone and Brinks

I've got two pit bulls. I gave Capone his name because his snout is all black. It reminded me of when men don't shave for a day or so, and their face gets all stubbly, and he just reminded me of a little gangster. He however doesn't live up to the reputation. He's the biggest scaredy cat I know. Literally afraid of EVERYTHING. Everything is out to get him, especially the sound of water bottles.

Brinks on the other hand.. thinks he's the size of a lion. I gave him the name brinks for the simple fact it amused me (Brinks' Home security system). He has in fact lived up to the name. He's still pretty tiny for being four months old. He thinks he's as tough as a brick wall. And then of course the company Brinks got bought out by Broadview. Brinks still sounds better.
