WIBTA to continue to try and change my dog's name?

I adopted my dog from a woman who just couldn't take on additional animals due to having way too much going on. Her kids called my dog Jack Jack, which I hated.

I instantly changed his name, and the woman who I adopted him from did not like that at all. I have been willing to send pictures that the dog was doing okay, and I told her we had renamed him, you'd gotten his shots, he was getting along with my other dog. And she said I was erasing his history.

I told her that all of my pets had matching names hooked up I had a dog named Sage, and now I had a dog named Sasquatch. Just like the dog before had been Sarah, and the one before that had been Sammy.

It was a stupid name in practice that I came up with and I was 14 and have stuck with. And if she didn't like people rename and then animal, she shouldn't have given said animal up. And while I was more than happy to keep in contact with her when she wasn't being a pain in my ass, I just blocked her and was like it's my dog now, he's loved, spoiled more than any dog should be, that's all you need to know. Cut the umbilical cord, my dog
