got home, I recalled my mother once saying that if we ever had another dog, we should name him Snoopy. Not long ago I was looking through The Art of Walt Disney, a beautiful book, and there was a list of names that had been considered for The Seven Dwarfs. Lo and behold, one of the names that had been considered, but turned down, was Snoopy.

I bought this #Peanuts 25th anniversary book (1975) from a charity shop on a bit of a whim today. I decided to check if it talked about the introduction of Franklin, and if it did it would be worth buying, and it does.
It turns out to be a really lovely and insightful book. Here’s Schulz talking about the dog who was the basis for Snoopy and how he got his name, with a couple of photos
