Erm, havn't any pics here, as they are one the island, but we have puffer fish and red belly piranha, as well as another 10-15ish tanks in the garage. Was fine when we lived in Watford, we had a double length garage and could still get a car in to work on, but I've been thrown out of the island garage!

We have FIVE Border Collies, one Lab/whippit cross and two rats!
My other half , and me up to a point do agility with the collies. The are working dogs and need to do something. If not they make there own entertainment which normaly means trouble. Thta why so many end up at rescue centers.
All our dogs are male and range from 8 months to 14 years.
The rats are great fun too. LuLu and Wilma.
Not pushing or anything but if you want any details about agility in your area just ask.
Bob.

Put the cats and dogs in the barn and voila! no more mice problem
I don't have any pets, but my uncle had a dog Sally who unforunatly got hit by a car and died on 13th February this year

The driver stopped and my uncle was nearby, seems she just ran out
She had a puppy last year, Bobby, and he's staying with my uncle as a replacement sheep dog. They're both cross breads. Sally looked like a greyhound, but apparently her mother father and siblings all looked like propper sheep dogs, and she was the odd one out lol. I've got some pics somewhere

We've just got a cat st home, Tasha, she's getting on a bit now (about 12 i think) and nothing else

we've got a pair of fish in brum, they've not got names... I should really sort that out, I wanted to just number them, so that if one dies we've still got two
I like dogs but me dad's "not keen" on them...

Ollie the owl is correct mate! Well, three dogs, a whole load of bantams (chickens) with one called Chirpy who hatched and was brought up in the house, as her mother left the eggs, so we had to keep them warm in the airing cupboard. She thinks she's human, not a chicken. Ollie the Tawny Owl. We did have a grey squirrel called Hazel, and two previous to that, which lived for ages! We've had a few other odd pets, Guinea Fowl, Quails, and some of those partridges Dave was on about, but no pear tree in sight.
Mick, looks like the new addition to the family is settling in well, well done that man on going for a rescue dog.
