| does anyone else like animal companions? |
| Posted by: CelticRose 20-Feb-2004, 04:29 PM |
| Yes! I have two spoiled rescue Sheltie dogs! Since they were mistreated from previous owners, I give myself liberty to spoil them all the more! |
| Posted by: Armo 20-Feb-2004, 05:59 PM |
| Here is mine.. She is on her favorite persian rug.. Soo spoiled she is too. |

Oh! What a beautiful pup! Right now I am about to throw my two boys out the window from all the barking they are doing!  |
| Posted by: gaberlunzie 21-Feb-2004, 01:03 PM |
Oh, I love dogs - but we do not have one because we're living in the city...Rose and Armo, your four-legged friends are beautiful!  We still have the kids' wee rabbit and our cat, old girl ( 13 yrs.) and a beloved and full member of our family! Very spoiled, too...  |

| We have 2 spoiled mutts. Abby is part Bernese Mountain Dog and part Border Collie. Sadie is part Golden Lab and part German Shepard. We used to just have 1 dog, Jake, who passed away a year ago. But then, I came home from work one day and, well, my wife had decided we needed 2. (wives are funny that way) Now, we couldn't imagine having just 1 again. Abby and Sadie play all day, so they crash hard at night. We have just over half an acre fenced in, so we just open the back door and let 'em go. |

Todd I am a firm believer in having two dogs! Your wife made a smart decision!  They keep each other company when the family is away for the day, plus they have each other to play and wrestle with.  |

Here are Mr. and Mrs. Peckery's puppies. Ain't they cute??!!  |

I have 3 dogs. 2 are Siberian Huskies. The male is black and white, and the female is gray and looks more like a wolf. My other baby is a mix between Rottweiler and German Shepherd. You'd think she'd be mean or at least protective. HA!! She'd show the robbers right to the goods if only they'd pet her.  |
| Posted by: Irish Stepper 21-Feb-2004, 05:15 PM | ||
Gee, Peckery. They don't look like monkeys at all.  |

| I only have 1 wee puppy, but she makes up for it in attitude and size. Here is a picture of my owner and her lap dog. |

| I <3 that pic !!!!! Blue Heeler and one insane Yellow Nape Amazon here .. I'm sure I can find a pic of Blue... AH heres the second night I had her.. I can not belive its two years allready ... |

 That is exactly what I thought! Very cute doggies, Peckery! In fact, all the doggies are beautiful on here. I have really enjoyed the pics and hope to see more! |

| My favorite Critter is my Monster Mathilda Peabody. She chased the deer yesterday and got in big trouble. That's not her job -- just wish I could convince her! Tried to post pics of her and/or deer but the puter would not cooperate. Will try next week.  |
| Posted by: CelticRose 22-Feb-2004, 02:15 PM |
Oh, oh! I bet that was hilarious! Would have loved to have seen that!  |

| Finally had to tie her in the boat because it was too big a battle to try to land a large fish AND the dog. My husband didn't know which to net first. He and a friend pushed off from the bank one day without Mati and told her to stay. They had to net her before she drown in the river cuz she was NOT staying behind. |
| Posted by: CelticRose 22-Feb-2004, 07:55 PM |
| Sounds like she quite a lively personality! I bet she keeps you on your toes! |
| Posted by: Arianrhod 23-Feb-2004, 07:01 AM |
| She just wants to go fishing! No wonder she fusses about being left behind ! I gotta take some pics of my crazy parrot and post them... Hes FULL of personality.. and a few other things too In Service to the Dream, Paula |
| Posted by: CelticRose 23-Feb-2004, 07:09 AM |
| Paula would love to see the pics of your parrot! I have friends that have them and they are characters! One time we were attending a funeral and were all supposed to meet at someone's house afterwards. Hubby and I were the first to arrive. We knocked on the door and we heard a voice say "come on in." The door was unlocked and we did! Only to find out no one was home but the parrot! |
| Posted by: Arianrhod 23-Feb-2004, 07:24 AM |
| There was a show on PBS last night.. The rain forrest , and all the parrots... Where they go to the cliffs to eat the clay.. for nutirents, and to counter act any toxins they may have ingested... First the Mealy Amazons came, then the blue wings,, and last of all the Macaws.. Just to see them in flight was a treat, and to hear them.. Crackers is in this room behind me.. So I turn the TV up so he can hear all the jungle noises,, He goes nuts .. but he goes nuts for the B'52's .. the vacume, and the shower too .. They do say the "right" thing at the "right " time.. and its halarious when they do,, Just like your friends bird, welcomeing you into their home .. I will get some pics of him with the digital .. and post them,, He is really funny In Service to the Dream, Paula |

| I have three dogs. My bride calls them "Her children", and I can assure you that they are treated that way. One male, 90% black lab, named Duke. He's the wise one, and at 100 lbs he still likes to curl up in your lap. The only dog I've ever seen that knows how to grin. He thinks he's human. My wife calls him Baby. The female, lab/chow/shepherd mix. She has some emotional issues (she doesn't like being alone), and a touch of arthritis in a knee. Her name is Heidi. She likes to wear makeup (she sits with my wife in the morning and she likes a little powder on her face, makes her feel pretty). She also goes by Sweetheart. The puppy, Charlie, a golder retriever/yellow lab mix. Full of life, and always smiles. Loves to play catch with a tennis ball. Very atheletic. Also goes by the name Charles Dog. And I'm their chef. |
| Posted by: CelticRose 23-Feb-2004, 10:50 AM |
| Paula! That is so funny about yoru Parrot. Is his/her name Crackers? Cute! That story is hysterical. I hear they often times outlive their owners. Shamalama! I can relate to your wife! My doggies are my "children" too! Both of mine have emotional issues too in that they don't like to be left alone either! |
| Posted by: tsargent62 23-Feb-2004, 12:24 PM |
| I wish I had pics of this. One of our dogs, Sadie, is a golden lab/german shepard mix. She gets her ears from the shepard side. Way too big for her head. When she's bummed out by something, she sticks those great big ears out sideways. More than one person, when seeing that, says, "She looks like Yoda!" She does, too. |
| Posted by: CelticRose 23-Feb-2004, 01:38 PM |
| One of your assignments, Todd! I would LOVE to see a picture of your Yoda! |
| Posted by: tsargent62 23-Feb-2004, 01:47 PM |
| Yes, ma'am! I'll try to see if I can find one. I'll at least post pics of the dogs, Yoda or not. |

| What a great bunch of animal-lovers there are here!! I've met CelticRose's pups; her Nikki is my bud, right CR? Now I have a little menagerie at my home: one turtle named TJ who lives in a turtle pond in the front lawn with 5 or 6 fish, two delightful mutts out back named Buddy (who adopted us about 4 years ago and looks like a short German shepard) and Lady (100 lbs of talkative lab/cocker spaniel/mutt mix)... but my favorite babies are our three cats Simba (a sweet, long-haired tabby), Ruby (a short-haired tabby whose well-deserved nickname is "Psycho-Bi**h") and our newest member of the family Snicklefritz, a friendly black & white 2 year old who showed up in my in-laws garden and picked my husband as his new owner! Here are the cats: (Ruby on the left, Simba on the right, and Snickle on the table) |

| Sheesh! I'm sorry it took me so long to look in here. This is my girl. Buffy, the kitty slayer. She's a year and a half, and a complete daddy's girl/goofball. |
| Posted by: oldraven 24-Feb-2004, 12:02 PM |
| And, of course, then there's our kitten. Faith, (yes she's named after the other slayer). |
| Posted by: CelticRose 25-Feb-2004, 12:43 PM | ||
Yep! Siobhan! Nikki will always forever be your buddy. You always called him "Sweet face." My, it is about time we saw some kitties in here! I was raised with cats and I love those furry creatures but I am so allergic to them now.  Some beautiful kitties here! I love Snicklefritz and Faith! oldraven, my how your beautiful pup has grown! Great photos too! |
| Posted by: tsargent62 25-Feb-2004, 12:57 PM |
| Oldraven, what a beautiful dog! I would love to have a German Shepard, but my wife runs a day care out of our home and some parents might have a problem with it. Oh, well. Someday. |
| Posted by: RavenWing 25-Feb-2004, 01:02 PM |
| I have a fur baby story for y'all. My very small kitty (Frederick J. Tinkter-Tink) pinned 2 manitenence men in our bathroom. He also swiped a quilt out of their hands. It was so bad that there were 5 people in there tyring to deal with our cat. THey finally called my husband and had him come home from work to get him. Needless to say that they will think twice about coming in the apartment without letting us know from now on. |

The grin is part of the chessie heritage, also. Both of the chessies I have had did that. It can scare the sox off a stranger that is not expecting it and doesn't realise that it is a FRIENDLY thing. |
| Posted by: gaberlunzie 25-Feb-2004, 01:48 PM |
| CelticRose won't sneeze only by SEEING a sweet kitten...what do you think? May I introduce our Miss Kitty then? Brave elder girl; a bit more than 13 years and VERY spoilt... |
| Posted by: CelticRose 25-Feb-2004, 02:21 PM |
| Oh, Gabby! What a beautiful kitty! How can anyone resist that? Also love that chair she is in! Wow! RavenWing that is an absolutely hysterical story about your cat! Wish I could have seen that one! One time I had these two cats when I was single and living in an apartment. WEll they were chasing each other in the apartment playing and making lots of noise. Well my next door neighbor thought I had had burgler so she called the police. I got called at work and when I came home, I had a police helicopter flying over my house and little blue men (cops) running around all over the place. We got into the apartment to discover it was my two cats and they had done a pretty good job of throwing tennis shoes around and other items they thought were fun to throw at each other. The cats hid behind the refridgerator when the cops where there and I was horribly embarrassed!  |
| Posted by: tsargent62 25-Feb-2004, 02:32 PM |
| Never been a cat person, myself. I have a mild allergy to them. Give me a great big dog. The bigger the better. Both my dogs are in the 55 pound range and they're just barley big enough. I'd rather have 2 that were over 100 pounds each! That would be really cool! (We need a dog smilie!) |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 25-Feb-2004, 10:22 PM |
| Hi all! We've had lots of rabbits (just two at a time, in seperate cages, mind! ), a ferret for 9 years (one ferret in a lifetime is enough for me, though she did have her cute moments, too), and now we have a puppy who'll very soon be a whole year old! 1 year old sometime overnight the 28th/1st of March! Can't believe it already. Our girls are planning a big day for her. Here's a picture of our Holly. She's quite a character, learning new things every day and surprising us with new abilities, too! She's getting quite a range of vocalizations! Lots of fun!Dreamer1 |
| Posted by: CelticRose 26-Feb-2004, 01:03 AM |
| Dreamer! Your puppy is beautiful! Is she part Sheltie cause she sure has the coat and body of one. Here is a pic of my dogs and you can see why I ask. |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 26-Feb-2004, 01:11 PM | ||
Celtic Rose, your two beauties are just that!! No, Holly is an English Shepherd. She's a cousin to Border Collies and Australian Shepherds, without all their frenetic energy (or so we've been told! That must happen after she grows out of her puppy stage!) She's about the same size as Border Collies: 21" high right now, 51 lbs. She's definitely a Herding breed, though has adapted very well to family life (thank goodness for a fairly large back yard and woods nearby). Loves to go for walks with my hubby in the evenings - usually 5 miles. (The web site for English Shepherds is: http://www.englishshepherd.org/ ).I'd bet our three herders would have a great time together!! Dreamer1 |
| Posted by: CelticRose 26-Feb-2004, 02:22 PM |
| Dreamer! Oh my! She is an English Shepherd then! My, she is definitely a herding breed. You can see it in her. Yes, my boys and your girl would have a great time. They love other dogs! Anyway, your girl is a real beauty! Does she know it? I had a female Sheltie once who knew she was pretty. |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 26-Feb-2004, 06:29 PM |
| CelticRose, Thank you! I don't think she understands things like appearance or size right now. She still thinks she's small enough to sit in our laps! She's our shadow, too-follows everyone around to the point of being underfoot. Mostly she concentrates on choosing the most likely candidate for **Play Time!!**, then sticks with you through thick and thin 'til you see it her way! She's a very loving girl, and very protective of our girls.How old are your boys? What are their names? I bet they keep you hopping too! Dreamer1 |
| Posted by: Arianrhod 27-Feb-2004, 05:44 AM |
| Dreamer, She is a beauty ! I see a LOT of Border in her .. her size and shape are right on! They really vary in colours.. What a lovley doggie .. I'm a wee bit bias to the Herders myself They are just great dogs... I have a ACD now.. Honestly Blue is not hyper.. She gets lots of excersise.. But between your hubbies walks and the kids. Sounds like Holly is getting all she needs .. A good puppy is a tired puppy. Thanks for sharing her.. Rose I just printed that pic.. The look on Nikkis face , just makes me smile .. I wish they could talk ! In Service to the Dream , Paula |
| Posted by: Arianrhod 27-Feb-2004, 05:46 AM |
| I just gave that site a once over.. I have to show you Sis.. She looks just like her cousins on that page.. But she was all Scot.. Her mom and dad were imports.. |
| Posted by: maisky 27-Feb-2004, 07:57 AM | ||
I'm confused, are you talking about your sister or her dog? |
| Posted by: CelticRose 27-Feb-2004, 12:09 PM | ||
Dreamer I had a look at that site! I am amazed how similar that breed looks to her cousins! I too see a lot of Border in her. An average Sheltie is supposed to be between 13 and 15 inches. Nikki is about 15 and Teddy Bear is about 17. They are getting up there in age now. Teddy Bear is 13-1/2 and has arthritis so it is hard for him to get around much these days. He also had Valley Fever which people and dogs get here living in the desert. Nikki is 9-1/2. I hate seeing my boys getting old. They are like your girl..........follow me everywhere and always under my feet. They are also very protective of me. They can be handful sometimes when they get roweled up. They can get pretty hyper. Anyway, your breed is very beautiful! Paula! Glad you like Nikki so much! He is quite a sweet face! I loved your pic of Blue! She is a beautiful girl! |
| Posted by: Dreamer1 27-Feb-2004, 12:34 PM |
| Hi Celtic Rose! I'm glad you went "visiting". Yes, the three breeds are very much alike. Sometimes my hubby says he thinks the English Shepherds could be really a subspecies of Border Collie, but I see more differences that set them apart, especially in temperament. Anyway, I'm glad you took a peek. I'm so sorry about his arthritis! I know it breaks your heart to see him when he's having a bad time of it. Then other days he's probably just fine, up and back to the usual tricks. Dogs shouldn't be susceptible to arthritis, they just shouldn't! What's Valley Fever? I've never heard of it. Both of your guys are gorgeous, and I bet they still keep you hopping! They look like they really like to play! Still have lots of spunk in them, and lots of time still too. Don't worry! Dreamer1 |
| Posted by: CelticRose 27-Feb-2004, 12:52 PM |
| Hi Dreamer! Valley Fever is a respiratory disease that is contracted through the spores of the desert dirt. Most everyone who lives in the southwest has had this at some point in their life. Caught early it can be treated. If not, it can make a person very very sick and can even spread to the brain! For a dog it can be very deadly and most dogs do not survive it. However, I caught the symptoms early and he was able to be treated. The medicine was so expensive to treat Teddy Bear with it was astronomical! I had to drive down to Mexico to get it much cheaper. Still cost me an arm and a leg though! He recovered after six months of having it, but he has a residual cough and gets short of breath very easily which walks are very hard for him too. but my two boys get along very together and do play with each other a lot which is fun to see. I at one time had four of these dogs! Now that was a handful. |
| Posted by: maisky 27-Feb-2004, 12:56 PM | ||
I give my wee puppy meds for her arthritis. It helps a lot. |

| FOUR!?! Yikes!!! Teddy Bear's lucky he has you! Dreamer1 |

| WOW Mayte ! Thats some family ! All of your snakes are amazing... The Pines are beautiful ! I love those... Do you feel pinkies??and do they all get hungry at once? The Dog and Hamster are darling.. Your doggie fits right in ! I am glad you got them posted, ty for sharing ! In Service to the Dream, Paula |
| Posted by: Mayte2 14-Mar-2004, 02:39 PM |
| They are beautiful aren`t they I love them all to bits. We feed all the snakes on a Sunday evening (just finished). The corns and the boa are all on little mice (one a week)... the smaller Pine is on 1 medium mouse a week, the Pine has a medium rat once a week (they absolutely stink when they are defrosting!!) The dog will eat anything and everything (even a whole birthday cake when I forgot to put it out of her reach - complete with candles and holders!!!) and as for little Harriet .. she LOVES jam (although I`ve only given it to her once!!) My other creature is a bit older than the others .. I`ve had him for 6 years .. he eats anything too but he`s snuggly and warm (Its my partner, just in case any of you were wondering )Mayte |
| Posted by: Arianrhod 14-Mar-2004, 02:45 PM |
| Those frozen mice and their cousins all lined ziggy zag up nose to tail.. in the bags...are pretty amusing to see... Even reptiles can have a "frozen" dinner these days ! In Service to the Dream, Paula |

| So, a hamster living in a house full of snakes. Hmm? I imagine your hamster is pretty regular. Oh, if hamsters could speak. Harriet would say, "AAAAAAAHHH!" |

| Posted by: CelticRose 15-Mar-2004, 01:05 AM |
| Yeah, no offense to Mayte,but I am terrified of snakes as where I live we have many poisonous ones. Mayte! Yours are indeed beautiful. Can you educate me on snakes, please? How social are they and are they affectionate with people? |
| Posted by: gaberlunzie 15-Mar-2004, 03:55 AM |
| I have a very conflicting relation to snakes... I'm fascinated by them. I like watching them ...BEHIND GLASS!!! They are truly interesting and beautiful animals but nevertheless I'm so scared by them that my blood runs cold...at the same time... I also wonder how to communicate with them??? |
| Posted by: Siobhan Blues 15-Mar-2004, 03:50 PM |
 That's what I say to every snake I see!! |
| Posted by: Mayte2 15-Mar-2004, 04:43 PM |
| Our snakes all have their own personalities. THe biggest one (and oldest) is Tess. We got her when she was 2 1/2 and she hadn`t been handled much. We call her the grandmother!! The first couple of times we handled her, she hissed like a good `un, although she has never struck at us. Now she only hisses if she`s near to shedding her skin (bout once every 6-8 weeks). We`ve just leave her alone when she`s like that. As for the others .. Roxy is about 7 months old, but she`s as placcid as they come. She really striking to look at. Beautiful:) She`s our model The two corn snakes, Barney and Monty, have been in our care since they were 2 or three months old. Monty is like the father to Barney who has this "cheeky chappie" look about him They are far more used to being handled and never strike or hiss at all. They love being taken out for a slither The newest one, the boa Bonnie, is not used to being handled at all. She has struck my partner about 8 or 9 times so far, but as she`s only a couple of months, we`ll soon get out of that. Regular handling is all they require. They are no different in that respect to the hamster. The more you handle them, the better tempered they are. Apparently, we`ve been told that snakes regard humans as one of three things .. insignificant, predator or prey. If they think you`re one of the last two, they are more likely to strike. If you`re insignificant they`ll just put up with you. I think my partner and I are insignificant to all but Bonnie, who sees us as predators. Nice to be loved eh? All in all, they are great fun. I love feeding days. When you see snakes feeding on a tv programme, you just tend to think, "oh don`t they open their mouths wide", but to see it in front of you is amazing. Its truly a "back to nature" experience. Absolutely fascinating I`d have more if I had the room to keep them all (OH .. thats after I get my bearded dragon which is next on the list )Mayte |

Mayte! Your snakes are God's creatures to you, eh? That's all that matters!   JaneyMae! Your father and those angel looking cherub kids are beautiful! Thank you for sharing. You must be proud of them all! Now Matilda looks like she was singing in her bath!  What a character she is! A real cutie! I love seeing pics of her! |

| Here's our youngest family member. This is Abby. She's a Bernese Mountain Dog/Border Collie mix. She's a sweetie that'd soon as lick ya than look at ya. |

| Todd, those are such great pictures!! I'll bet they all keep you busy. They look like they're always going somewhere, and doing ten things at once--keeps us young! Thanks for the smiles Dreamer1 |

| I wissh I could share your enthusiasm about snakes but I can't. They terrify me! I've always felt the only good snake is a dead snake, so you'll have to forgive my fear. I don't even like rubber ones....give me the willies. |

| Todd, you should mark it in your calendar: I'm not going to tease you but to tell you something very seriously and honestly this time! You have three wonderful kids - you should be so proud of them! I also loved the pics of Sadie and Abby - that's a great, big family you have! |

| Well, thank you all. Yes, they keep me quite busy. The boys both play ice hockey and Megan is a cheer leader. And the dogs, are, well, dogs! I am very proud of my family. I have 3 great kids. |

| They sure are nice pics of all your families. I`m gonna have toget a few of my lads scanned for you all to see. I`m so proud of my boys:) I miss them like crazy They decided to stay at home in South Wales when I moved here. You know the stereotypical image of a single mother and her brat kids. Well .. my lads have proved every one wrong. They are respectful, kind and they love their Mum:) I love them to bits. Mayte |

I understand how you feel. I had to leave some babies ONCE. I vowed that would NEVER happen again, no matter how hard it may be to find nice rental housing when your family is infested with monster(s). |
