Hizzoner has named his doggies.
Catch up quick: Earlier this month we told you that Austin Mayor Kirk Watson had adopted a pair of dogs from Austin Bulldog Rescue — and had yet to land on names.
The bottom line: Watson revealed in his latest Watson Wire newsletter that his English bulldog will be known as the Bear — a name several of you had suggested. He'll also be known as Sugar Bear, Honey Bear or just plain old Bear.
"The little Frenchie goes by le nom Coco (as in Coco Puff)," he wrote.
