Sadly, we have none of our own - but one neighbour has a Shitzu Cross and our other neighbour is the local vet - and they have 1 x 3 legged cat & 4 Rescue Dogs ...... so we get our share of pets to pat! I am actually thinking of putting a "Beware of the Dog'' sign on both our side gates ..... cos I reckon they'd all go ballistic if anyone entered after dark!! They currently have 15 Beagle Crosses at their Rescue hospital that are all desexed & inoculated & Chipped .... and almost ready for new homes - with plenty of people putting their hands up already. They are GORGEOUS!!
We DID have a possum that took up residence on our back steps .... but he was a bit mangey so our Vet neighbours have taken him to their hospital for treatment!
My girlfriend had 2 miniature Schnauzers but sadly a black snake bit one late last year, so only 1 left now. :( He was a Show Dog - but was gay - he just didn't like the ladies ..... so was neutered & sold to her!
I reckon if I got a dog - it would be a Miniature Schnauzer - small, highly intelligent, great company & they don't shed!!
As kids, we had Cocker Spaniels & later a beautiful 'Lassie' Collie Dog .... but sadly had to give him up when we moved into a home unit .... :(
One day .......
Now. .... if there was a "How Many Kids do you Have'' thread - I could also say 'NONE ...... married one! ;) '
