Ooh Shenon, we used to have a Weimaraner about 18 years ago, but when my son was born we sent him to live on a farm in Wooler, 3 kids, couldn't cope, hubby worked away. As it turned out it was a good move as my son, as I said earlier, is allergic to dogs and is asthmatic, so keeping the dog could have been deadly for him. They are such handsome dogs aren't they? But absolutely crackers[msntongue]. We named ours Baron, because he looked so noble.

Mini Lop Bunny called "Starsky in Hutch" and a ginger tom cat called Jerry Lee Lewis!!
They are actually quite difficult to keep Chrizzy although when I see tanks in the US they always look good. I suspect that setups and fish are cheaper to buy in the US. Ours cost us a lot of money[:I]It has every gadget and gismo attached to it but you still have to monitor it closely. Great to watch though.

Great pictures Ruth.....they are very cheap here.....I remember paying nearly 4 pounds for a small tropical fish last time I had tanks in England years ago....here they are around 98 cents....
We keep fighting fish in just bowls...in England we would use heaters etc.....
I really think I will give it a go.......I'm trying to find a place to have a tank made.....more than buy one at a pet shop....and then take my time setting it up.....
We have two dogs. They are cross Yorkie/Cairn Terriers and their names are Winston and Churchill.

4.5 years on.
I have a seal point persian cat called Harry and a red point persian cat called Annabelle and a lot of fluff on my carpet which I can't hoover up at the moment as my little grandson is terrified of Mr Hoover!.
We have two rabbits, named Sabrina (for the witch) and Marshmallow, a Siamese cat named Snickers, because his colors are the same as a Snickers bar, a Persian called Dusty, because when he was a kitten he looked like a dustbunny that you would sweep out from under the bed, and then there's our puppy, Shannon. She is a Shetland Sheepdog (Sheltie), although she thinks she's a cat, much to my husband's dismay.
We have two Ragdoll cats, both of them beautiful, Bailey is the female and is a Seal Colourpoint and Jack Daniels the male, he is a Seal Bicolour. They are like puppies and follow you wherever you go in the house. We absoloutely love them to bits.
I think we have a small zoo! We have a 6 month old puppy German Shepherd callled Max who is gorgeous and we take to dog training classes. We have a German Shepherd cross called Benson who is now 13. Two cats called Cosmo and Kizmet. Two rabbits called Fluffy and Furry (my 6 year old daughter's) and two goldfish. Going on holiday is a problem for our parents. The dogs go to my mother-in-law's, who also comes round every day to feed the cats and fish. The rabbits are off to my Mum's. I think they all dread it when I tell them we are going away.
do you want another dog!!! mine is driving everyone nuts with his crazy whinning!!!!!!! hes a cross staffi/whippet lurcher, and when we went on holiday he was virtually screaming!!! i could hear him down the phone when we spoke to my daughter, he was worse when we wernt here but everyday he makes this awful row! we wont be getting any more dogs!!!!

Hi All,

Hi All
Our first pet was a golden retriever cross with a yellow lab and his name was Simon. We had him just 3 weeks before we got married, not best timing but as he was a result of two farm dogs getting together the farmer just wanted rid. However, whilst we were on our honeymoon, Simon was entrusted into the care of a family friend who used to train guide dogs. Perfect, we came home from our honeymoon to one fully house trained puppy without any of the mess. His one majoy indiscretion that I can recall was that he managed to eat a set of honeymoon pictures that arrived back by post and SImon got to them before we did.
Several years later, whilst we still had Simon, I wanted another puppy. So we then had Oscar a pure bred retriever. Sadly for Oscar, and us, he was diagnosed during his first year with Epilepsy. Our vet, had it pretty well controlled for several years but sadly at the age of 5, Oscar had to be put down.
Simon, lived to be 12.
We then had many years without a dog. Until 7 years ago, those old feelings of "Oh wouldn't it be lovely ........" And Monty a Golden retirever came into our lives. As scatty adn puppyish today as hew as 7 years ago. Still wouldn't be without him though.

We have a dog called tysonand when we were packing our cases in the lounge he kept coming and taking things out again,i think he knew it was time for the kennels,and after we picked him up he was really weird he kept howling in the car,a bit embarrassing when we had to stop .[msnembarrased]
This is HOLLY our six year old "beardie cross" who was rescued by the RSPCA form an uncaring owner who kept her chained up outside in all weathers. She's put on quite a bit of weight in the past couple of years as she gets spoiled rotten here.
