Title: What kind of pets do you have at home?
Post by: Dynamite2013 on September 25, 2013, 01:05:09 am
I have a dog mixed breed part German Shepard and Labrador Retriever. He is 11 years old this December and he acts like he is 4 years old. He loves to play and he has a regular playmate that is 2 years old and a really small dog. they play nice together. but if someone comes near the house the little one is the one who starts barking and our dog keeps him going by joining him. Our other pet is a Cockatiel and he chatters all the time and if he is out of food he raises his voice and chatters until you feed him. It is so nice to have such nice pets. they are the best we ever had.

We have our daughter's cat.  Short haired domestic gray and white cat.  We adopted him from the Humane Society when our daughter was in high school.

Two German Shepherds and three cats. The cats are one domestic short hair, and two Norwegian Forest cats. All but one of them are shelter rescues.

We're animal nuts here :)

We have a mixed rotweiler/labrador.  He's great, huge and scary if someone comes to the door. I remember a door salesman looking at the dog who greeted him at the door with growls and teeth galore, he said to me "is he alright", not really wanting to listen to the salesman I said "sometimes". If only the salesman new that all he had to do is stretch out his hand and let the dog sniff it, the dog would get so excited he would pee on the floor!

We just adopted a 6yr old Boston Terrier. Our last Bostie passed away in April and we wanted to fill the void. He has never had much
structure in his life so I started obedience training immediately. He is learning his commands very quickly (sit, stay, down, Drop it ).  He
really is a great dog.

We have a brown lab he is 10yrs old. Very sweet dog loves to bark at whoever comes to the door. He had an eye infection a couple months ago but is better now. We gave him medicine it was pretty expensive about 80.00 for 2 meds. he also asks younger then his age.

I have a mixed sheppard and lab. He is about 95 pounds. 9 years old and still the biggest baby, but he is great with my son. The only issue I have with him is the tremendous amount of fur he sheds. Other than that, he is pretty awesome!

I have a female Papillon dog. I had poodles for 20 years and wanted a dog that wasn't so expensive to maintain. However, I plan to adopt 2 poodles who are living outside in a cage and basically neglected. Drives me nuts. I've had dachshunds and German shepherds in the past. I used to have kitties years ago. And I had freshwater aquariums for over 20 years but got tired of the upkeep.

I have an American Bulldog we got from a breeder. He was her stud dog and she didn't want to use him anymore. He's 4 years old. He's very good outside and plays with my boys great. He doesn't like being in the house, but he likes his crate. He's never been hand fed so giving a treat is taking a chance of him chewing on your fingers. So teaching a 90 pound dog not to snap has been a little tough. We're working on it. He's not aggressive and he's obedient. But he's costing us a little because he is all white and his skin is very sensitive. He got a bug bite early this summer and it turned into the nastiest skin infection. He was on antibiotics and steroids for almost a month.  I know he'll become a great dog. It's going to take some time.

I know what you mean. During the last years of his life, our last dog on $100 worth of meds (monthly) to keep him alive. I won't even talk about the vet bills.
But when you love your dog you do what it takes.

The new dog has allergies. His meds are about $30 a month. that seems like a drop in the bucket.

Unfortunately, none anymore. We were graced by having a wonderful dog for a few years.  His name was Scooter and he was a gentle giant....150 pounds of loveable Rotty and Australian shepard.  He was the soul of all dogs and I don't think either my husband nor I will ever forget him.  He was just so there for our family all the time and well, he talked to us a lot too.  What he really liked was singing though.  Will be two years ago this month that cancer grabbed him away.  Well, we were really lucky to have had him in our lives.  I think only pet owners can understand how much a pet can be missed.

I am totally a dog person.  As a child I so wanted a dog but my parents wouldn't allow it and finally got me a cat which turned out to be attached to my mom, not me.  Now I have lots of dogs.

I have a 4 year old female Tibetan Terrier. She is very smart, has no body odor and sheds hair like people do. The long hair upkeep is a daily routine, that's the only bad thing. However I love that she never smells bad.  :heart:

I have three dogs. They're all mixed breeds. I don't really know what each of them are mixed with though. I don't know their exact ages either. Best guess is 8 1/2, 7, & 3. They're all a bunch of weirdos too. Lol

I have one kitty and her name is Korra.
I don't know what breed she is, but we got her from the animal shelter.
She's an adorable little short hair, black cat and she has little tufts at the ends of her ears, almost like a miniature version of a bobcat or something.
My friend thinks her ears are the cutest thing ever.

I only have 1 pet and although he is a small chihuahua he is about all that I can handle at times. I made the mistake of spoiling him rotten when he was just a little bugger and please believe I am paying for it dearly now. He thinks that the sun and moon revolve around him and you had better give him ALL of your undivided attention. I wouldn't have it any other way though. I love him so much! He keeps me company and returns my love unconditionally. He is what brightens my day and puts a smile on my face with his crazy antics. It's too bad that people can't act the same way sometimes. :wave:

We have 1 dog, and 3 cats.  Fluff, the dog, is a cream/white Japanese Spitz.  2 of the cats are tortoise shells (a blend of all colors - looks like autumn kitties,) and the other cat is a gray and white tuxedo.  She's 17 years old.

I don't have any pets.  Growing up, we had a Yorkshire Terrier.  Binky was a wonderful dog.  We even took her on vacations with us.  She was a wonderful part of our family.  I still miss her very much.
