My Personal Zoo - Aquarium Advice

JessieVB · 04-29-2008, 04:54 PM

So I've seen a bunch of pics of peoples non-aquatic pets and I thought I'd share mine with you all too:

There is of course Pete:

Cocoa (my lab/ Australian shepherd / Australian cattle dog mix):

J.J. (the desert tortoise):

From left to Right Roly (a Dalmatian / Australian shepherd mix) and Baci and Zoe (mix between Roly and a cocker spaniel):

JD (My sister's dog, JD is short for Justine's Dog):

And finally, Lady (my boyfriend's German Shepherd):

Great looking extended family you have there!

Fantastic Crew - Beautiful Dogs - Let's see - fish, dogs, turtle, -- wouldn't be building an ark by chance?
P.S -- Love the turtle

Thank you.

Sometimes they make me crazy

, but I love 'em all. The only one I don't have a pic of is my boyfriend's cat.

No plans an ark. . . All the animals are spread out. Roly, Baci, and Zoe are with my dad on his 50 acre property. Cocoa and the tortoise live with my mom, and Pete's going to be moving in with them this weekend.

Always loved the Desert Tortoises but my two red ear sliders are enough hassle in the first place.

Nice Zoo.

It looks like you have a busy schedule with all of thoughs pets Looks like lots of fun as well.

JessieVB · 04-29-2008, 11:33 PM

Lol. It looks like a lot, but I only take care of Pete. All the other pets have a different caregiver. My sister takes care of JD, who I get to meet this weekend--JD's the newest member to the family.

I used to have a huge desert Tortoise when I was a kid in Southern CA. He was a good 12-14" across. He just roamed the back yard, and hibernated in the winter under the tool shed. We think somebody turtle-napped him one year though...

Awww, they're all gorgeous. Cocoa has the most beautiful face. I'd melt every time those eyes stared at me

Hi there. I finally met JD (short for Jack Daniels....) He's adorable, but definitely not a chihuahua mix. Mom and I think he's a dauchsand/yorkie mix, but definitely a dauchsand mix.

Cocoa's eyes do melt us. She's got a lot of personality and has become very vocal in her complaints about JD who she whined at for an hour Friday night.

We can't wait to let JD roam the backyard, but he's too small to leave out with Cocoa. He's fits in the palm of my hand still, so he's about 4 or 5 inches.

Brought Pete to my moms house. Cocoa is thrilled about that. . . because she likes to eat fishfood.
