Odd Duck Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 (edited) 4 dogs, 4 cats, 2 birds (my old man severe macaw is likely around 45-50 years old). I’ve had rats in the past, but it hurts too much when they are so short lived. I do adore them as patients, especially dumbo rats. Always so sweet!

So we only had dogs My neighbor had dachshunds and had a litter and gave me my first dachshund after that I am dachshund crazy that has been the breed I have owned since when My ex and I split up we had 4 of them he took 1 I took 3. All of them has passed away since then But my sister-in-law brought me a rescue dachshund that had major problems they was thinking of putting him to sleep We are not sure what happened to him before he came to me He hates men the most I have had him 8 years we think he was 1 when he came to me . he was not named so I named him after my favorite band Bon Jovi I named him Jovi but we call him Joey But it took a long time for him to trust me, and he has big social disorders .. only humans he trusts is me and my very close family that he often sees Around me, he is calm, mellow & a sweetheart & I love having him But around others he is a Devil He pees, chews on them and growls and carries on awful like, and it takes a good while for him to calm & settle down .. The vet and I have tried working with him, nothing helps, So if I have company I have to have them call first, so I can cage him in his dog cage and close the door .. so I can have a good visit with my company and to keep him calm .. It makes it way better on him & my company I have to walk him in the empty cemetery near my house that has no living people When it is just him and me home he is a perfect angel, and he likes hanging around my fish tank . he watches them very closely Don't let the sweet face & photos fool you... Please meet Joey my brothers calls him the Little Demon Joey Likes To Help On Trash Day I love seeing more owners that love and accept their traumatized dogs at face value, and care about them and try and make them comfortable. He's lucky to have you! ❤️ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bev C Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) @nabokovfan87 you babies are adorable, a day at the groomer must have worn them out .. @Dancing MattI think all of us are our pets .. pets I know my dog thinks he is boss of me .. @hannah662parker Thank you for the kind comments Joey is my 2nd rescue dachshund and it has not been easy with him when they bought him to me you could not pet him if you tried he would pee and try to bite you & he hid for 4 -5 days before coming out to even to eat .. I had to really work with him and be patience ,,, my family thought I was crazy to keep him But I knew he needed love and there was a sweet boy under all that roughness He is still scared of strangers and men only 2 men he likes is my brother and my next door neighbor that helps with my lawn and house repairs Edited May 14, 2022 by Bev C 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a tough morning for them. Unfortunately they were upset before even knowing they were off to the groomers. Rushed out the door didn't help 😕 They did good once they got there and it's really good that they are enjoying it. Definitely been tough to get the pups sociable given not being able to leave the house, construction, etc. They (almost) have a backyard now and they love to look out the window. I can't wait for the day when they can be lazy and stare out the screen door and play around the house. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanked Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 @Guppysnail @xXInkedPhoenixX Rats and snakes were an absolute no, but almost any other furred or feathered pet was ok (including mice). We always had dogs and cats. I'm not likely to have any more because as you said "I couldn't do it anymore." My last 3 German shepherds were rescues, and they all lived to be teenagers. Now I can't walk down the pet food aisle. I enjoy other people's pets. At the shop, we have a jet black shop cat that comes and goes as she pleases. Blackie meets me at the end of the driveway each day and walks me to the shop, where she has a hard time deciding between getting her ears scratched, or the snack in my pocket. Blackie is about 10 years old, and has only rediscovered the benefits of having physical contact with people in the last year or two. Her littermate was possibly a pandemic victim. Blackie has a condo with w/w carpet, fully insolated. vinyl siding, rubber roof and central heat. ...Not my cat, but still cared for. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardedbillygoat1975 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 This is Stella Blue our Portuguese Water Dog/Poodle mix. This is her happy place on the Oregon Coast. They are joking about this water dog stuff. At 9 weeks she jumped into my sons bath. She now knows she has to wait for them to get out of the bathtub before she can jump in. Probably one of the easiest dogs to train that I’ve had. 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torrey Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Bettimus with my youngest in 2019 She's a mastador, so not a small dog. They used to cuddle all the time.... Munchie talking the baby into going on the potty instead of in the diaper. Munchies typical attitude toward all other living creatures: "Unless you are here to serve me, I have no use for you" She trills like a hummingbird, weaves around our feet like a cat, and has a serious Napoleon complex and believes it is her sole responsibility to boss the big dogs... as long as she knows that they can't get her back. This past year, Bettimus finally decided that Munchie (at age 7) has lost puppyhood status, and doesn't take her being a bully anymore. It's been an interesting change in dynamics. Munchie will do the play bow, Bettimus says "sure", and then Munchie tries to tattle on Bettimus (as if we didn't just watch the entire interaction). So Munchie gets treated like a big dog bully🤣 However, she is incredibly patient with the grandboos and pandemic babies! (As long as they are confined to sitting on the baby potty, lol) 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cat does that face far too often. 🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunny Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 I love seeing all the pets! I have a dog and two cats, other than my fish. Dixie is some sort of border collie mix we got from a rescue, but the laziest snuggle bug collie ever. She’s developed seizures, which apparently collies are prone to, and takes medicine in American cheese twice a day. She has very strong opinions about our daily routine, and will try to herd us to the couch when it’s couch time, or to bed if we’re up late. The tortie is Suwanee, named after the street we lived on when we found her. She wouldn’t come up to me until one day, turns out she had been attacked by another cat and had an abscess, and developed FIV. I guess she knew she needed help and came to us! She’s become a snuggle bug over the years and is very sweet, yet definitely has that tortitude. She also takes medicine twice a day for hypothyroidism. Allie is a black cat we got from a coworker, whose barn cat had kittens. She is a funny mix of bold and skittish. She wants to investigate everything but will dart at the first sound. She loves to roll on her back and talk to us, but the belly is definitely a trap. She looooves watching the fish. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
