We have Bhodi the Bassett (renamed him, he likes it). Resued early, the foster family went on vacation, so we are the foster family until his heartworm treatments are done then we own him. Kinda' a trial, but we love him already, so he is ours.

This is Petrie (on the right), who's lived with us since October. His whistling repertoire includes We Sail The Ocean Blue from HMS Pinafore, All I Want Is A Room Somewhere from My Fair Lady, and the Imperial March from the Star Wars movies. (To the left is Katie, a friend's budgie whom we were bird-sitting for.)
In sadder news, these are our former goldfish. The kids won them at a school carnival Thursday and since we'd talked about setting up a real fish tank we decided to at least try and do it right. I thought once we got past 2 or 3 days we would be fine (it was a surprise so we weren't able to let hte tank settle as long as they recommend), but one died yesterday and one today. We're just going to leave the tank running a couple days, do some water tests, and go from there before trying any more. |

Bhodi looks like a great pup, though he could really use a manicure. I love seeing everyone's well loved pets, unforunately my allergies have gotten to the point we probably won't ever get a dog. This really stinks because I had several while growing up and would love for my daughter to have the fun we had.

Edit - and they're real dogs, not like poodles, which are for punting.

Quick google of above: Cute, but too much hair for me. I'm more of a lab gal. My pets shouldn't need more personal care than I do. I can only imagine what a wet one of those would smell like...

Standard Poodles are real dogs with bad haircuts. Miniature and Toy Poodles do not have room enough for brains.
Poodles also have hair and not fur, and are hypoallergenic. I think the same may be true of Bedlingtons, but their showcut is so ridiculous that other dogs laugh at them and they have a self esteem problem.

Man!! I really want a dog now, can't have one though. For different reasons than LabRat. I would feel bad leaving tham alone all day while I work and I really don't have room for them to run. Since I rent a townhouse, there's nowhere for them for run around free.

My parents are going to get one of those new laberdoodles (sp?), the hypoallergenic dogs.

Amazing what people will try to do to profit from the unintentional mating of two purebred dogs.

Several breeds are non-allergenic. Shih Tzus are; they don't shed, but they need haircuts every 6 weeks unless you're into endless brushing.
+1 on standard poodles. Great dogs; super smart. |

I think this line's mostly filler.
