it all started when my best friend,marialena, brought him over to my house on my mom's birthday with a little purple ribbon wrapped around his neck. when he was little his name was trouble. he got the name from his personality, he was a little troublemaker. so we were looking up names on the internet and my dad wanted to call him sheldon or bazinga and a wouldnt let him. so then i thought of the name rascal and thats how he got his name. he is now 7 months old and he is still a troublemaker.
