The "Pet" thread...

[Juggernautz]

I started a similar thread many m@@ns ago but couldn't find it.

Anyway, the intent is for y'all to post pictures & submit any tall tales of any past/present/future pets of yours.

Also any advice on raising pets, any concerns regarding pets, any plcae you like taking your pet, etc will be most welcomed as well.

Have at it!

My two Chocolate Labs Reggie "Freakin" Nelson(2006) and Timmy "Heisman" Tebow(2008) were both puppies for our last two Championships.

Maybe I need to get another puppy for this coming season.

A red and white miniature Poodle. Red colored with a white blaze on her forehead and chest and 4 white feet. She is 2 1/2 years old and rules the house.

No pets currently. We're gone a lot and wouldn't want to leave them alone. Maybe in the near future?

We have one dog, Chester, a Pudelpointer. Here is a video of him swimming in the pool. As you can see he has two balls in his mouth. One time he tried to put a tennis ball and a big blue ball in his mouth, but they would not fit. He then put the tennis ball inside the big blue ball and brought both back to me.



Chester is related to the tee retrieving dog at Boise State. I bought Chester from this trainer.

Well ... My 7 year old son loves animals....

Spike the fox terrier - a truly amazing dog.

a canary.

2 zebra finches - the first one he saw on a walk and knew it was not a native bird... So he caught it and gave it a home. The second he bought so it would have a friend.

2 canary zebra finch eggs - evidently the first finch was a male and the canary a female....even though it sings.

5 hermit crabs. 4 live in a habitat. The fifth is an escapee that appears every few weeks.

A dozen or so fiddler crabs which he insisted we catch at the beach last week..minus a couple that the squirrel ate.

Plenty of fish. 2 betas, couple skelton fish, couple dalmatian fish, 2 frogs, catfish and sucker fish. Forgive me if I don't know the correct names.

Several monarch butterfly chrysalis.

And todays acquisition... Grasshoppers.

Not mine but WTF?



The 14-year-old Chinese crested and Chihuahua mix found her abandoned (no wonder!) behind an apartment building. Her daughter picked the dog up, and at first they thought he was a rat! After realizing it was a dog, she decided to keep her.

We have a 10 year old female Yorkie & a 4 year old black w\ white trim female German Shepherd(part black lab) as shown in my avatar.

We also have a male Sun Conyer

Our Yorkie is queen of the household & the Shepherd is a member of the royal court.

The bird is a bodyguard.

Gumbo, our beloved Yorkie. Did not care for pets prior to getting Gumbo two years ago for the kids.

Fast forward to today, absolutely amazing dog. I just love watching him navigate a day, playing, investigating, napping here and there, protecting, he is flat out awesome.

This is my Bella, she is an Aussie shep/Blue Heeler mix. She is 3 1/2 now. She is bery lovable and non-aggressive. She is protective though. She follows me everywhere from the bathroom etc. She always had to be around me and snuggle with me.






Jazz 14 Black Lab mix. She is something else and that is the only thing I can say.




Bella

We have Marley, a female goldendoodle. She's fantastic with our kids.

[StrangeGator]

Poca is our eight year-old miniature Dachsund. She has been a wonderful companion, especially for our autistic son.

[vanders]

two Maine Coons.. Goose and Maggi

[Speedofsand]

This was my last dog. He was 100 in dog years when he died. Here I had a camera in one hand and a steak bone in the other.






I love today's pics from the IndyStar.com Dario & Ashley with the trophy and their 2 dogs, Shug & Buttermilk.

He is a cutie

[Speedofsand]

thanks GP8. I got him from the rescue as a puppy. He was incredibly smart, knew all kinds of tricks. Was great with people and other animals too.

[GatorPrincess8]

I would just gobble him up.

Wrigley (lab chow mix), Noel (cat) who passed last year and at my parent's house I have "Tim Tebow the cat" (full name) and Corey Brewer (cat). Corey Brewer was not a big fan of his headband and only wore it for this picture so we've renamed him Brandon Spikes the cat.
