Pet Pictures

[BradfordBenn]

Since lots of us happen to be Pet People, I thought it would be cool to have a central place for people to put up their favorites, in addition to scattering them around the forum as we have been doing.

:clap

[Jim Shaw]

Top this canine puss! This is Mojo, a Jack Russell. Mojo thinks he is smarter than I am.

He is right.

[BradfordBenn]

Very Coool eyes.:bliss

[BradfordBenn]

Here are my two, after their first Xmas together, Chloe the Newf (black one) was only 1 year old, Marty was 23 months. Still both puppies.

Of all the pictures I have still one of my favoritess. They are the best of friends as you can see.

[RebeccaV]

I've gotta post two of Stella - she has two speeds. The first is Quiet, which you don't get to see very often.

[RebeccaV]

The second is Insane:

[Cliffy777]

This would be Otter. So named because when she was a puppy her tail was way too big in proportion to her body and when she went swimming she looked like one.
She wears a velcro belt so that she can adhere to the ceiling when she bounces on the bed.

[Cliffy777]

His name is Bill. A cat of ill repute, however he is a most excellent mouser (so important as we live in the country). I spoke with Bill's lawyer about posting a picture and he has promised to get back with me soon. (Dealing with cats is such a pain in the arse..)
Nice dog BG, when I saw the name and the gray hair for a moment I thought it was my second ex-wife, but then I put on my glasses. My ex-wife's nose was a little shorter. Whew!

[BradfordBenn]

Love the hot dog. Where did you get it? I gotta get one for my guys.

Come on Cliffy, tell the truth. We all know you rub your dog against the ceiling and let static cling hold her there.

[SCDorman]

Here's Macallan ("Callie"). She's 1 1/2.

[SCDorman]

And Skyler. He's 7.

[James O]

Her name is Daimond. She's a humane society mutt and a real honest to goodness bitch. Much love for this animal.

[James O]

I'm with Jim Shaw regarding the cats:cat However my daughter brought these two home after there mother abandoned them. They were smaller than my hand and we had to feed them with an eye dropper. Hoping to find them a nice home or hoping the strings on my Prince tennis racket will break soon:help

Just kidding. No hate mail from you kitty lovers. Their names are Sly and Little Bit

[KBasa]

Tuxedos. My favorite.

[Cliffy777]

the pic of the boxers. And I like that you have installed a narrow driveway just for your motorcycle. Great idea.

[MCMXCIVRS]

We can't have animals with fur or hair due to my wife's allergies. So this is how I spend the money that is left over after the motorcycles are done with my bank account:p This tank is a 75 gal. fish only (except for one hermit crab) marine setup. I also have a pond outside in the summer with a few pond comets in it. They have a winter retreat in the house. I'm building a new reef tank in my basement that will be 125 gallons, and will eventually contain corals and such as well as fish. Needless to say my new Ohlins were cheap in comparison to my new tank.

[KBasa]

Is that tank a reef tank? A guy I work with had a small one on his desk and it was absolutely amazing to watch grow.

He was in a reef club and they had "propogation night" once a month or so. People would bring down their coral or other invertebrates and swap them around. He was able to put together a tank for not much more than the cost of the hardware. People hooked him up with live rock and all kinds of other stuff. Later, when his tank started to grow, he returned the favor by bringing stuff back.

That whole experience really impressed me. I think he's in the San Francicso Reefers.

[MCMXCIVRS]

The tank in the picture is just a fish only tank, no corals or liverock or any of that cool stuff. I am making my new tank into a true reef tank once I have it up and running for a while. Corals are very fussy about the conditions in which they live, so I need a much better filtration system than is on my current tank. Plus, it tends to get too warm in the summer months since it is located in my south facing living room.

The corals are not going to be the expenxive part of this new tank, there are some groups here that swap corals too. The major expense is the equipment and the maintenance. So far i've spent three grand on the new tank, and there's nothing in it yet, not even water:yow

BB - just got back from the national pet supplies chain where Stella and I got the hot dog. They are out. Pimply faced kid/excuse for customer service representative doesn't remember ever having them and doesn't know if more will come in.

Tell Marty and Chloe that we tried!

[oldcarkook]

Well, in addition to a lazy dog, we also have two lazy rabbits, five lazy horses, two lazy barn cats, two lazy china geese, and one Snapzilla who appears 2-3 times per year either going to or coming from the pond.

Here's Snapzilla blocking my driveway on my way to a truck show last summer...

Thanks guys for your thoughts:)

[BradfordBenn]

It always sucks losing something you love. :cry

[Ironhorsecowboy]

Sorry about you pet Brick. We as humans can't help but get attached to our animals because they are always our friend and companion. My pets are like my kids, especially for us empty nesters. I feel your pain as the wife and I had to put down our 12 year old peek- a- poo last year due to health problems. It liked to have killed me to make that choice. Who says grown men don't cry!:cry

[LICK MY BRICK]

Your so right ironhorescowboy I had eyes filled tears as I buried him in our back yard.
thanks again for condolences.

OK, I can't resist the opportunity....
I went out drinking with an old college

Most guys just have an embarrasing tat to show for it........ Gotta be different..

She does grow on you though;)

[lorazepam]

Sorry to hear about your cat Lick. I have never had children, and my animals have been a substitute. It sure is tough when one passes. You have my condolences.

[dzimbric]

This is Molly and despite the facvt that my wife threw her a birthday party, complete with cake, gifts and singing she is not spoiled.

Hope all of you are having fun in Branson, some of us have to work.

Hey Lorez, I got twins might be able to loan you one for a while.

[dzimbric]

I still can't get the picture to post :dunno

[dzimbric]

HOO HOO Yeah Baby we got it now.

[BradfordBenn]

How did you get Molly to put down her stick?

[dzimbric]

The secret was the cake, she was kinda freaked about sitting in the chair, I think she thought she was in trouble.
Now that it is warming up she wants to jump in the lake at 10 PM, it's real drag to find a soaking wet dog on the porch when you're getting ready to go to bed.

[BradfordBenn]

Yup, I know that feeling. Of course the harder it is raining the more they want to be outside.

[KBasa]

And they generate that wonderful smell when they're wet.

:eek

[BradfordBenn]

Don't ever give a dog raw brocolli, it is worse than wet dog smell. Trust me.

[lorazepam]

dzimbric, I am quite happy without children, and I will pass on the offer:D . I once fed a dog I had garlic to help control fleas. I think it was the gas he got that did it. It was nasty.

[BMWRider]

My wife's bull terrier, which I lovingly adopted upon our marriage:

http://bmwrider.smugmug.com/photos/126057-M-1.jpg

Then a stray cat came our way about 6 months ago. She wandered into my wife's workplace and we adopted her immediately. But she seemed lonely so we had to adopt another friend to keep her company.
Lucibelle is on the right with new addition, the eternally goofy but absolutely delightful and very affectionate PK in the background.

All three are great buddies to us.

What a BEAUTIFUL Golden Retriever! And ya can't beat their disposition.:thumb

Gotta love them. Here is my 4:45 am alarm clock and early morning guide. Helps me with my morning routine. Baby has graced our lives for the last nine years and we hope many, many more.

She's a gem. We're in the process of choosing a collie to adopt from a rescue organization...hope it turns out as well.

[Guzzi]

Yup! That's the only way to do it! Why BUY a dog from some "puppy mill" when ya can rescue one from possibly being put to death?:dunno

My best friend has 5 "BIG'uns" that are all adopted, and they're the sweetest guys! Their uncle (that would be ME!) loves 'em dearly! Can't have pets, cuz I live in an apartment.:cry

I salute you :clap for doing a truely decent deed!

[BradfordBenn]

Rescue is the way to go. We boycott stores that sell puppies and frequent stores that have adoption days.

Having said that we did purchase both of our dogs... but they were not from mills/farms. They were from AKC breeders and we purchased the "Non Show Quality" ones. We had been waiting over a year on each of the rescue lists when the litters were born, so we were invited to have first picks.

[SCDorman]

Our Callie was a 'non-show quality' dog from a breeder as well. Not that we tell her that! We are going through the Minnesota-Wisconsin Collie Rescue organization right now. We just had our home visit yesterday, which is the last step in the process. We're looking at several adult dog possibilities. We've also signed up as foster parents for rescued goldens. Could be quite the menagerie around here before we're done.

[lorazepam]

I would love nothing better than to have a big house in the country, with about 6 or 7 big dogs in and out and all around all day. If I had the startup funds, I would love to open a doggie day care, that would be a hoot to do.

[SCDorman]

We've been having that conversation. My wife has been 'at home' since getting laid off in the telecom meltdown. We love critters, so we're trying to think how we can parlay that into an income opportunity (albeit maybe a small one). We need more room, as her definition of the right number of dogs is the same as my definition of the right number of bikes...one more than you have. Of course, I agree with her on the dogs.

[Guzzi]

The more, the better ! ! ! :dog

I also boycott stores that sells puppies.... Although I bought my dog from an AKC breeder I admire people that rescue dogs.
I also would love to have a farm for rescue puppies.... They usually make the best pets.....:dog ....
I could never work in a "puppy mill"...:..:cry

[swleejr]

Hi I'm new...

here's my two...both rescues (Penninsula Humain Society, and Fairmont animal shelter)...Christy on the left (she's about 13 now, and Tachi on the right (he's about 10).

[Guzzi]

Very pretty animals!:thumb

[BradfordBenn]

Very nice looking dogs.

Samoyeds? Great Pyr? Kaouski (spelling is wrong)? ... etc. I can't tell but the ears don't look like Pyrs.

[swleejr]

They are samoyeds, my babies...sweet dogs..one is more like a cat, likes to sit with you on the couch and want attention (tachi), and the other doesn't like to be hugged too long, wants her own space.....

Here's another photo...

All of the above but what would a BMW rally be without a little sailing thrown in for good measure. You can't go all the way across the US and not see the Ocean at least once. At least I can't. :dunno

[bmrbabe]

and unfortunately we just sold the house where the pic was taken. :rolleyes We still have a water view but added a few mountains and ships. :bliss To see the Pacific Ocean you would need to travel another 3 hours or so and it's just cold and wet. Oh, and the sailboat is not ours, we have a power boat. :wow

Yep, it took a few months of serious training to get to the point where he actually rides. In the picture we are rolling along about 15mph. I have had him up to 55 with no problems. The 'sunglasses' are actually doggles made specifically for dogs. I think they come in about 4 or 5 sizes and can be found on E-bay for around $15. The training involved several steps:

1. tank bag (on living room the floor) training with lots of treats
2. doggles training with lots of treats
3. tank bag + doggles training (still on the floor) with lots of treats
4. tank bag on the bike with lots of treats
5. tank bag on a running bike (the RT) with lots of treats
6. tank bag + doggles + running bike with lots of treats
7. tank bag + doggles + rolling bike in garage (Honda Rebel) with lots of treats
8. tank bag + doggles + running bike then driving with lots of treats (do you see a pattern here?)
9. Graduation to the R1200C on the day after his first ride on the Rebel. He went 15 miles and I only had to tell him to sit one time. Even practiced tight, lock-to-lock figure eights in a parking lot with him on the tank. I think he's a natural.

Step 3 of the training.

Did you steal my dog? Seriously, my last dog was a 55 lb BT named BULLITT (you know that McQueen thing) and was registered as " the Brindle Eared Beast". Very friendly, STUPID, fun and entertaining dog. Just don't START anything with him if you are another dog....a 75 lb Boxer jumped on him one day and.....let's just say Bullitt handled himself very well and the boxer never did that again.

But my #1 breed of all time is the Doberman..had 6 of them. Still miss them all. Especially Butkus...95 lbs, black/dark brown, no whites of the eyes showing, looked like he was on steroids...most worthless watch-dog ever born! But the kids could fall asleep on his chest. And you didn't have any rodents in the yard.

I need to stop now.

Being hard pressed for a name, at the vet, and not being able to remember the name of the cat from Alien, (and having just listenned to Zep III) he's officially named Tangerine. He gets called Kitty and Cat most of the time though. He's really a great cat. Keeps his own, hunts for his food if I'm not around (vacation), can't use a litterbox, but asks very effectively and nicely to be let out...

Good kitty.

Went to the annual "Bark in the Park" ("A festival for dogs and the people they own") here in Charlotte NC and saw a guy with a black German Shepherd that stopped me dead in my tracks. It wasn't big for a Shepherd or otherwise showed exceptional breeding but there was just "something" about this dog. I had to ask, it turns out to be a German Shepherd "Schutzhund" - guard dogs to movie stars and kings! He didn't say what he paid for it but did say the dogs grandfather sold for $100,000!
Google "Schutzhund" to get the fascinating story of how they breed, select and train these incredible dogs.Talk about having "The Right Stuff"!

Bigfoot Bob. American Shorthair Tabby--from the pound. He's got lynx point ears and dual "thumbs" on both front feet, hence the name. We figure Bob is about 15 years old now. When I saw him at the pound, he REALLY wanted out. I thought he was black, but after a bath he came out grey, white, brown.

Don't know if you know it or not but a male cat of three colors is rare. And what is it about cats wanting to sprawl on what you're reading, jealousy? And by the way that cat looks in excellent shape for 15, you must have taken care to feed it right.

I thought he was black, but after a bath he came out grey, white, brown.As the owner of a 10 year old black-on-black tabby tomcat who is still fully-armed with claws on all paws, I was just wondering. How in blazes did you give Bob a bath - anesthetics? :eek

[jerryb]

I haven't seen a Schipperke ("Little Captain" in Flemish) in the pet Forum and in years of going to our annual "Bark in the Park" I have only seen one. Yet how many breeds of dogs could rate a headline story on the cover of the Readers Digest titled: "A Dog Like No Other".
Schipperke's aren't popular because they have no use for anybody but their family. They are constantly on guard, watching out for you. Their loyalty and chutzpah is amazing. I've been told they are the only breed that if they show friendliness to a dog show judge (wag tail, lick, etc.) they will lose points as untypical of the breed. If you want a dog that gives unparalled loyalty to the point where you know it would give it's life for you then the Schipperke is the dog for you.

"It isn't the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog".

[pmdave]

Actually, Bigfoot Bob has more than three colors. He has a nice cream color on his stomach.

Regardless of the rare color, Bob is very special in several different ways. In addition to the polydactyl front feet and pointed ears, he "hums" to communicate. Only after he stayed at the cat B&B did he pick up some new "meows". When he was younger, we'd discover him at the top of any extension ladders, and when discovered, he would run full tilt DOWN the ladder--so we never could get a picture. He did pull a tendon in his left front a couple of years ago, which has made him more cautious about jumping.

When I adopted him from the pound, he was around 6 years old, was fat like a bowling ball, and weighed about 14 pounds. He gradually slimmed down to 12, and in his old age is now down to around 10 lbs.

He's VERY particular about his food. At first, he would only eat dry crunchies. Then we got him to like canned tuna, and he eventually gravitated to those super-smelly pouch meals.

A day or two before his "bath", I trim his front claws to remove the really sharp points. He struggles, but I just believe that we're going to do this, and he goes along.

I've discovered that the way to give him a "bath" is to carry him into the shower stall, then undress and throw my robe over the top. I just turn on the warm water, let him get wet gradually, then soap him up with cat shampoo until he feels cleaner. He doesn't scratch because he can't see any way to leap over the top to escape and he realizes the door is closed. It's more like going out in the rain--which he doesn't seem to mind.

When we first got him, I had plans to teach Bob to ride on a motorcycle, perhaps in the sidecar. He did fine as long as the engine was off, but he wasn't going to have anything to do with an operating engine.

We had to put our little Nala down the other day. She was our daughter's Siamese Tabby Seal Point, and she was only eight months old. During the four months we had her, she stole our hearts away. She liked to lay in the sun on her pad in the open window next to the computer, while I put posts on the Forum.

Unbeknownst to us, there was a pernicious agent at work in her little body.
The first thing that happened was that she developed an eye condition, so my wife, an ophthalmologist, took her to an ophthalmic vet, who diagnosed Iritis. We treated this with Pred Forte, and the eye cleared up nicely. For most of the time she was with us, she was very active and ate well. In the mornings she would go downstairs and have a breakfast of Fancy Feast shrimp, and when I came down later, she would have a little chicken or ham snack. She liked to sit in our laps while we watched hockey playoffs. Like most Siamese, she was a real talker, and she would yowl loudly when we came home from work, so that we were sure to know that she was there.

A few days ago she became lethargic, stopped eating, and would throw up.
She was bloated, and lost weight. We took her to our regular vet, who diagnosed Giardia, and gave her a shot. My wife wasn't sure about the diagnosis, so the next day we took her to the ophthalmic vet's general clinic, and she was immediately diagnosed as having feline infectious peritonitis. As this is 100 % fatal, and there is no cure, the vet recommended euthanasia. FIP results from a feline coronavirus, usually transmitted to young kittens from other cats in a cattery, and which mutates in the cat.
Nala was our first cat, (we had Rhodesian Ridgeback lion hounds before) and I now understand the enthusiasm that cat owners have for them.

We'll really miss her.

[Crow18]

I feel for you, Rinty.

My cat's probably got about 4-6 good months left (he's got a lot of miles on his clock, however). Last winter I had to have a neighborhood stray put down, so I know exactly what I'll be in for, and how awful it's going to feel. Right now, I'm just trying to spend as much time with him as I can.

[bubbagazoo]

I'm with you, Rinty. Last weekend we had to put one of our dogs down. Fitz (who was only about 3 - 3 1/2 years old) started having seizures in November. After about 3, we took him to the vet where a diagnosis of epilepsy was made. He was put on medication to control this. Well, he continued to have seizures so the dosage was upped. And then upped again. About the only thing the meds did was lessen the severity of the seizures. However, with the lesser severity, Fitz began having multiples in short periods of time. Then, he had 3 seizures in a 20 minute span. My DSW and I could see the pain he was in and decided that it was not fair to him or us or the other animals in the house (we have another dog and two cats - if I can get them in one place at the same time, I will take a picture and post it).

So, after a year and a half with us, we had Fitz put down. The easy part was making the decision. The hard part was carrying it out.

Fitz is survived by our other dog, Red and our cats, Max and Sam (and a bird and about a dozen fish). Yes, we have a small zoo. We miss him.

[rinty]

Thanks for your sentiments.

The pain from the euthanizations is the high price we pay for outliving our pets.

Being a first time BMW owner this spring I was, as you can all relate, thrilled to be riding such an impressive machine. Then I started searching the web to find more info about what I was riding. I first found to BMWBMW site and forum and was pleasantly suprised how helpful and friendly everyone was there. Then I found this forum and have been, again, thrilled with the friendly info that is here. Now to top it all off you love to show off your pets!!! This may make me sound like a sad-sack but the only time I am not with my hounds is when I am riding my K75!

I never liked cats until we were adopted by a kitten during sub-zero temperatures. Well that one was only the beginning. We have five cats and it is never a dull moment.
Cats are quite entertaining. The best thing about our cats is the fact that we do not have a mouse problem. Living in the woods is always a challenge when you have to deal with mice. The cat's do their job well.

They are most definitely a handful, Derek. Both of their parents on each side have SchII or SchIII titles, and Lena's grandfather was a national working champion. In fact, there is an article that is frequently given to people who are considering getting a Bouvier called "Don't Buy A Bouvier", which details what living with one is really like.

Sonny, on the left (and my avatar), is sweet as she can be and has practically none of the traits a good working line Bouvier should have. Lena, OTOH, has more than we'd like. :-D

I love the breed, but after Lena goes, I'd kind of like to get something that will fit on the bike so my wife & I can take it with us on trips. Maybe a Yorkie or Brussels Griffon.

Yes Deuce is a JRT. He does stay in the bag. Although at first I thought his moving around was because he wanted to get out, but it turns out that he is just adjusting himself to see over my shoulder. I am stoked to be able to do this with him.

My Dad was a newspaper man, I have this 1950's Underwood typewriter from the paper he worked at.
Kitty is very attracted to this typewriter. When he sits on it like this, I think that he's working on his memoirs:
"Desperate House Cats".

Chewman, beautiful Dog, what breed?

We rescued a wounded black lab mix that was wandering in the woods on Christmas day.

Don't have a rightsized pic yet but the dog has come a long way in four days. We are moving swiftly from a foster home to the real deal at the insistance of our teenager who found "Simon". Our aging incumbant terrier mix Charlie loves his new little brother though they are exact opposites.

Regards,
Chris

Here is "Simon". New name, new dog to us. Rescued on Christmas day from the woods. Should he stay or should he go?

He sure is cute. I'd be inclined to keep him, but I'd be sure to have him scanned for chips, just in case he is lost.

Chris:

And check his ears for tattoos. Also, the local SPCA can give you phone numbers for your local lost pet services.

He looks like he's in pretty good shape (in addition to looking pretty content with his new keepers) but hopefully somebody's looking for him.

Adorable when they are this little, aren't they?

[wilcox]

Thanks Kevin and Rinty. Simon has an appt upcoming with MedVet and we have contacted the local County animal shelters. The area in which he was found is remote and neighbors think he may have been dropped off. Still looking though, and growing fonder of Simon.

Shameful behavior!

[Djstephens]

I noticed on the afternoon news yesterday that a woman had gone to a shelter that takes pets. She went both to stay and to help out. The interviewer asked whether she had a pet. She stated "No. I have a Scottish Terrier, so he has a person."


Ours have two people ;)

Nikki is a mix. Father was a Black Lab, mother was a Golden Retriver.
There MUST be some Chow in her, she has black gums and tongue and the neck and jawl {way strong} of a chow.
She is way smart, loyal, and VERY protective.
Seeing your new friend, you have no choice, Simon says stay!

I got Rosy when she was 8 weeks old in December 2003. Since then she has hiked more than 1000 miles all over the west. Here she is above South Lake, up West Line Street in Bishop, California. Pic below is of Rose with Watson (behind), completely deaf, adopted from an animal rescue in Oregon this past September. They are in Red Rock State Park, Mojave, California<BR>
