Are your pets like your children
3 Attachment(s)
I have four Border Collies and have had five generations over the last 30 years and I know how much a part of our family they are and how I lament when on passes on. I feel like many people on this board share the same feelings about their pets be it dog, cat or other. I am going to post some photos of my pack animals and I hope all you other avatars do too.

Mornin'.
yup, I'll agree, our ol' dogs are somethin' else.. they're somethin', just not sure what :) We got Taz, Taz the wonder dog, the blue eyed devil dog :) She's a mutt, a Mala-mutt to be more precise. Don't know what we'd do without her. That bottom picture, is Taz after a night out on the town.. TGIF everyone ! Attachment 175 Attachment 176 |
Taz is a cool looking dog

I'm loving this thread!!!!!!
Of course my pets are like my children!:)
Let me give you the rundown of who actually runs this house: Rosie the fluff Kuvasz, next Chanel, a 3 y/o Yorkie. She is known for being the snob who thinks she is a princess. Christian, the baby, a 6 month old male yorkie. He had six teeth pulled yesterday poor thing. But the tooth fairy came and left a biscuit! We call him the Demonator, he is the Dennis the Menace of the house. Greta, the Matriarch. She is a 11 y/o Schnauzer who just kind of tolerates the rest. Max, a 3 y/o male Yorkie. I think he has issues. I am quite sure he suffers from separation anxiety when Mom leaves. He is quite a large Yorkie weighing in at 12 pounds! I actually think there is some poodle in his gene pool. Blitz, an 8 y/o male German Shepherd. I have a love/hate relationship with him. He's my husband's dog. He is the biggest baby in the world, scared of thunder and jealous of the other dogs. At 95 lbs he is intimidating but the reality is...he'll just lick a burglar to death and show them the way in! and finally Shadow. We rescued him from the shelter for our 18 y/o son. He is a Siberian Husky and about 10 months old. Beautiful dog but a little on the goofy side. Now there are four horses in the pasture Babe, Bandit, Traveler, and Morgan. Traveler is a miniature horse who is my other baby. I don't have time to post pictures this morning but will later!!! I think there is not greater love than that an animal gives you. It is totally unconditional. We actually at my husband's office had a therapy dog come to visit twice this week and it was amazing to watch the effect it had on the patients. We adore our pets and would do anything and everything for them.:) |

Here's my baby. I named her "Uriko" after one my favorite anime characters, Uriko the Half-Beast. By the way, she's not missing her tail. :D

This is Rusty the Red Rooster who is the father of 39 litters of puppies :clap:
that would be 234 children for him. Glad there are no child support payments on this guy. He is now 10 and I think done with the stud service but still has many years kick back and get fat :laugh: Clifford the big Red Dog :rolleyes: Attachment 180 Isaac |

Here are my babies.

Are they litter mates ?
Quote:
Isaac |
Isaac, they are not litter mates. Sadie is 9 months older than Lillie. We got Lillie 7 months after Sadie. Our Schnauzer we had for 9 1/2 years died suddenly from cancer. We were so sad without her. We found Sadie in Covington, La. and 7 months later we picked up Lillie in Fort Worth, Texas. Sadie was so active we thought she needed a playmate.
Your dogs are beautiful. I always wanted a black and white Border Collie dog. Do they all stay inside? |
Great thread. Before we had (human) children, my wife and I were married 11 years. During that time we had 2 cats, both shaded silver persians which lived 17 and 19 years old. I'm glad my human kidos got to spend time with our cats which we had back in college. Now we have a Pug, the most disgusting creature on earth. Snot blower!

Rhertz, I'm calling your dog and telling them you said that!!!!!:D
Is that your dog on your Avatar? If so it sure is cute. |
Presenting.....!!!

.....The ugliest cat I've ever seen. :D
Attachment 183 I swear to you all that this is a REAL LIVE cat! Can you believe how ugly it is? :freaky: |
They do live inside I guess they are rotten

Thanks, Isaac |
I am definitely not a cat person. Sorry, Anime. It is my mother's fault. When I was young she would not allow me to touch cats.

Tuff one here to post to

Growing up, I was allergic to cats. My parents forbid cats. So of course when in college, I couldn't wait to get one! (or two) :D LOL, after I got married when we were expecting our first child, my mom thought our cat would suck the breath out of our baby.. Old wives tale... LOL, didn't happen.. |
Hey rhertz you need to post photos of you dog family

From the archives.. years ago, when I moved out on my own I bought Casey Jones. An Alaskan Malamute. She was a good ol' dog.
Attachment 184 I'm not much of a cat person. But we had a cat for a brief while. Used to like watchin' the fish. Had to give up the cat unfortunately. But you'll be happy to know we found it a good home with ol' AL :) Attachment 185 what did I say, it's puppy Taz Attachment 186 It's adolescent Taz. Attachment 187 Attachment 188 |

Here is Louis who passed away last year thanks to Killer Tiller...
The next one is Max, then the grandpuppies, then Chanel. We love Yorkies! |
Those are some nice pups you got there lady

Yorkies don't get mange! They are perfect. I think they are God's favorite dog!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Do they yap a lot? Max, the fat one, does! I'd love to muzzle him some days. We are working on it. I've been watching lots of The Dog Whisperer. Chanel thinks she has to bark every time she goes out to potty. It is likes she needs to announce to the outside world "Here I come, look out". Christian, whose picture I haven't posted yet, doesn't make too much noise at all. We call him the Dennis the Menace. He's the baby and he loves to play all the time! Always has a toy in his mouth and always antagonizing the other ones. He's brought the old Schnauzer to life. I'll be posting pictures of Rosie, the man eating snowball this evening!!! |

All those dog years
So I dug out all the dog photos, just for you :)
It's freakin' monday, time to get back at it. http://www.caseyjones.net/dogyears2/...apeimage_1.png |
Wow! That's a lot of great dogs there. I use to have a German Shepard when I was a kid. He was an unusually talented escapse artist. I named him "Magic" because no matter how hard we tried, we couldn't keep him fenced in or tie up. He always found a way to slip loose and run free.
|
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Late Night. I loved hearing your dog stories!!!!
Isaac.....No that is not the face I see in the mirror! However, that is the face you will see if you don't quick picking on Rosie's mom. :D :D I am about to try and load some pics of all the rest of the babies that live in the house! |

I had a couple more to add. Blitz, our German Shepherd. He's very intimidating to look at, but he'll only lick you to death and show you the way to the door! I found a funny picture of the gentle giant Rosie playing with Christian and Greta. She loves to engage in tug of war with him. She'll even pick up the toy with him hanging off the end!

"No, really. Some of my best friends are cats." :rolleyes:
I have to agree.. something about hairless cats. who the heck wants to pet a hairless cat ? Give me an animal with some fur or some hair or something ?? LOL My mother has this beagle.. he's o.k. .. for a beagle. But that really short hair /fur that beagles have, bothers me 'just a bit' Awww, nobody loves the puppy dog :( Attachment 207 |
LN living up to your avatar
Nice pup you have there. I can see Taz is a major part of your family. We feel the same way about our dogs. No cats or any other pets just dogs and children that need, need, need lots of money.
Isaac |
Hey LateNite, does Taz sleep inside or out? I love his blue eyes. I have some pics of all of ours all snuggled up like Taz with our youngest. They think he is their toy, baby, and all around person they need to protect most. If he is not in the house, they are constantly walking around looking for him. Rosie even has to check all the beds at night to make sure everybody is accounted for and won't go to sleep until all the teenagers are home.
They are so funny with their personalities just like us people.:) |
Quote:
She is very much a part of this famiy. No doubt. Top of the mornin' everybody. |
Give Taz my regrets, I didn't mean to call her a she!!!!:D
I do so love to send one of my dogs to the kids beds!!!!The yorkies will quite literally clean their nose out waking them up! Good morning to all of you as well! |
