She -haaaate- me.  Because I put her on the leash.   She pulls legitimately recognizable female shit if I do something she doesn't like.  She's giving me cold shoulder, right now (ignoring my calls, even though it's dark etc), and won't sleep with me tonight.

Quote:That picture of her and the kitty is pretty cute.  Did she have to learn that kitty wasn't for chasing or does she just regard kitties and kiddies as naturally off the menu?

So, fun one.  Those first pics you guys have,...when she was the size of my palm...the cats tried to kill her pretty much daily.  Grey Cat (master race) taught her how to fight.  I'm not really sure that she knows the difference between a dog, a cat, and a person.  So, the kittens are family..I'm family, the kids are family, Grey Cat (master race) is family*.

-and you don't eat family.

The neighbors pet's, otoh...fair game. She got loose about an hour ago, she's tearing through their shit right now. I really love that dog.

Depends on which of her -many- nipples I tweak. That's the other thing about Easy that everyone should know. She's almost 50% nipple. She's gonna be a great mom someday!

*my wife...not so much.

Guess what I found while cleaning out my old office?  Yup, more dog pictures.  I can now post a pic of every dog I've had, which might also just barely fit under the number limit for photos.  Let's try:

First up: Bunny, a puppy born right around 1970 of my families ugly cur and my older brother's butt ugly mutt, making her a pure bred mongrel.  My best guess: terrier and spaniel with a dash of almost everything else.  She weighted 12 pounds.




Second: Sandy, adopted in 1979 as a somewhat older dog.  She was a Collie/German Shepherd cross.  Sweet with people, submissive to even the smallest of bully dogs, but death to cats.  She died at 12 of kidney failure.



Third: Daisy bought her as a young pup out of a newspaper add when both Sandy and Lia's elkhound were close to dying.  She is, you guessed it, a dalmatian.  Unfortunately for her, this would have been in the early/mid 80's when I was busy with finishing college, work and helping to raise my stepson.




Fourth: Sophie, a Golden retriever/Lab cross I found as a young pup in a newspaper ad.  I've shown photos of her as an older dog.  This is her as a puppy on her first camping trip to Arizona in 1995.




Fifth: Fletcher, my first herding dog, a pure bred blue merle Australian Shepherd, came to us on September 18, 2002 at about 4 years of age when Lia's uncle Stew died.  He lived another ten years with us.




Sixth: Heidi Rose, came to us as a young dog from a rescue in the Siera foothills just over a year old in October of 2010 and is still doing fine.  She is probably an Australian Shepherd/Cattle dog cross with perhaps hints of German Shepherd as well.  She is the one with different colored eyes.




Seventh: Smokey, a deliberate cross of an Australian Shepherd and Cattle dog purchased from a breeder in Colorado three years ago.  This one was taken a year ago when he was two.

Indeed. I was wondering myself. Don't recall seeing anything in the departed thread. Anyway, welcome back, rsk.....

One doesn't not ask HOW a person chewed through the restraints, one simply gives kudos for the accomplishment.

Eh, life has been getting in the way a little bit.

These are my cats from many years ago.  The first was Tajah (seen with my daughter when he was a kitten) and the second Billie Boy. After I took the second Photo, the rewind whirled, and both cats were instantly nowhere to be seen.  I have believed in teleportation ever since.





I am no longer allowed cats because I live in a no pet unit.

Redesigned Fergus's tank.

Bit of a flamer, isn't he? Amazing he can pull that off* in a water environment.
