Thread: Pets

Last but not least buttercup she is still fairly new to our family but already fits in perfectly.

Here's our dogs. The one on the last pic is still a puppy but already has an ego of a big dog.

Nanna looks like a nice family of pets you have there and your daughter looks about 5-6 in the pic on the horse our daughter is 19m old and quite a hand full any advice on getting past the terrible 2's I know are just months away.

Dwarvenchef thats the way things go sometimes when trying to appease or loved ones. What kind of scaly critters do you have. I'll post pics of ours a little later when I have time to wrangle together all the pics.

JPM7676 love the eyes on that Spynx and the Bulldogs look like they would make good guard dogs.

Jimmy sounds like you have a good understanding of what it is to be owned by a cat, as very few people own there cats.

Troggie look forward to seeing the pics.

Sailor are those Briards. I always liked the one on the Loony Tunes cartoons.

She just turned 4 in march. Good luck with the twos but they were not that bad for us

Yes they are. The girl in the middle pic is my daughter. 18 by now.
Your Ginger dog looks nice. I was surprised about the breed, as i haven't heard about Shiba Inu dogs before. We have almost exactly same looking local breed here, called 'Carelian bear dog'.

here is an info page about the Shiba they are a japanese dog about ours is a female and will get about 18 pounds the Carelian bear dog dose look very similar but gets muck bigger. They are beautiful dogs and I like the looks of almost all Spitz type dogs.

Shiba Inu Information and Pictures, Shiba Inus, Shiba, Shibas

The site that link goes to is a very informative site and my wife and I have found it to usually be pretty accurate.

you say your daughter is about 18 now sailor. I'm not looking forward to that time when boys start knocking on the door looking for hew knows what form my daughter. Luckily I have quite a while before I have to worry about that and we have some time to teach her what to look for in a good Boyfriend and to show herself the respect she deserves and not except any less from others.

Braddock, our 1 year old Boxer



and

Riley, our 7 year old Lab mix

The lab mix made me think RIP Brandy, AKA Orange Dog
18 years is a long time to have a friend and then lose them.

Indeed. The Lab was my wife's dog before we met, so she'll probably take her passing worst than I will. The boxer is our first dog together since puppyhood, and it'll kill me when he goes.

Hopefully, either is a few years off still.

I used to breed Kenyan Sand Boas and love the smaller boas and pythons. I currently don't have any reptiles or fish as I got really tired of moving them and the mouse farm every 3-4 years to new states...

I'm resisting the urge (my forst true addiction) to set up some reptile set ups... Sceloporus (fence lizerds) are a passion of mine and I find I NEEED!!!! a set up soon or I'll go nuts
