Nice pics! I am sure horses are much more expensive than fish.

Wow! Awesome... best of luck to you both!

They are both about 2 1/2 yrs old. Nes we got as a puppy from a breeder so we know when he was born. Dori was from an adoption because my wife thought nes needed a friend.

Pit bull terriers get such a bad rap because of all the media hype. They're actually terrific dogs and used to be known as *America's Dog*, now they're shunned. Some states and municipalities are actually banning this wonderful breed and forcably removing the dogs from their owners to euthanize them, yet pitties test higher on the temperament chart than labs, poodles, doxies and even beagles.

So sorry for your loss.

Pits are not bad; it's the irresponsible jerks who raise them to be fighters who should (IMHO) be euthanized.

Pits are not bad; it's the irresponsible jerks who raise them to be fighters who should (IMHO) be euthanized.Not that I disagree with your statements, but pits moreso than many other breeds are quite dangerous when mistreated or raised poorly. A lab might bite someone, but the pit breed is often raised to fight and kill. Taking the fight out of a dog isn't always easy. Their breed is built for protection and battle. I like pits and even owned one for a few years and he was a big goof, but I know my rotties were far better mannered as a whole than pits owned by friends. Course I don't trust a dobberman at all and feel far more comfortable around pits myself.

the breeds are not the ones with the fault it is thier owners that a) do not know how to train them proplerly b) want them to fight C) try to train them but in the wrong way. most pits are calm and gental but they are givin a bad rep by the ones who have gotten mistreated and have lashed back.

I almost feel like an idiot for saying this, but those cats look photoshoped... are their coats/patterns really like that? Ive never seen such a cool looking cat! Especially the first one!!!

Looks like a Bangel.

Very Beautiful!

OK.. My turn!
First...I'm so excited.. We adopted Sadie from Petsmart a year ago TODAY.. This morning, I went up to Petsmart with my boys and my dogs. A lady approached me and asked where I got Sadie from. I said "here". She said I thought so, do you know we have her sister in the back? (When we adopted Sadie, there were two pups but we only got the one). I had just been asking my hubby what he thought became of Sadie's sis! We turned the corner to see her and they look identical!! The lady told me that someone had adopted her and decided they didn't want her, so they brought her back. You can tell she wasn't fed right, but other than that they didn't beat her or anything. So, she asked if I wanted her, I said yes, but we really couldn't afford 95 dollars to adopt her. She said that since we already had the one, she would let me have the sister for free!! And it was so funny, they were wearing the exact same collar- brown with pink hearts :) I called Dennis to see if it was ok (he was at work) and he told me to do what I thought was 'right'...haha..big mistake..now we have three dogs!! Anyway, sorry..just was so excited, I wanted to share!!

Here's my pics- Sadie and Chloe, Misty, Kat (white), Gabby (grey), and Mookie (orange)
Enjoy!

OK.. My turn! Here's my pics- Sadie and Chloe, Misty, Kat (white), Gabby (grey), and Mookie (orange)

I love your pictures and the story behind them. These seem more like *family members* than pets. Sounds like they have such a great home.

:)

Thanks! They are definatly more like family... I have never had a time in my life that I didn't have "pets" . :) Before I got married, I figured I'd grow up to be one of those crazy cat ladies!!

Very awesome! I am glad the families back together. I love the pic of your grey cat licking his or her nose.

I only have one picture of my cat on my computer...other than that we have my fiances Tuxedo cat, a Pitbull, Mexican Red Knee Tarantula, a Kenyan Sand Boa, 2 Sugar Gliders and of course the pond, freshwater and saltwater fishies.

What is sad is when I go to the park with my pitbull and you see people leave the park. Nevermind the fact that my 6 year old daughter is running around with the dog and has taught him to go up and down the slide with her. Also last time I brought my dog to the Petco on the corner from us I was walking around and we picked out a toy (he brings them to the register) a little dog (cocker or something like that)came around the corner. They sniffed and then the little dog went crazy trying to attack mt dog 3 times larger. He just ran up behind me and the lady had to drag her dog away barking like mad....everyone saw it and then people started dragging thier kids from my dog?!? Did they think that the quiet dog who ran behind me was about to eat thier children after running away from a dog that could have been lunch for my dog? Most bully breeds have a bad rep....the one ruins it for the all.

Dalmations were bred to run with fire wagons, shepards want to herd, gray hounds want to run and the fact is the pit bull was bred to fight. The second part of that sentence was that they were also breed to be intelligent, have a tempered personality and to follow training. Genetically speaking they make great pets. However, one cannot ignore the fact the dog was bred to fight and ANY dog that is unbalanced from lack of solization or any other number of reasons often become aggressive. When a beagle gets this way, it is bad but not lethal. When a pit gets this way, it is just plain dangerous. Also, the breed tends to attract people who look at the dog as a status symbol and less of a pet furthering the problem. I am not arguing owner versus genetics here I am just stating that a pit can be a very dangerous animal much more so than many other breeds.

IMO, I find that cocker spaniels as Stevhan mentioned are more troublesome with aggression... dalmations are more aggessive as well.

Man, I have wanted a Bengal for quite some time but just can not afford them. I have been waiting for one to come on the rescue radar forever!!!

I actually rescue as well as breed and I have placed several rescues here in Georgia for the cost of spay/neuter. If you want, I can let you know if any other rescue bengals come into my home.

here are my pack of morons.

What are the chances of finding a Savannah Cat on a rescue? That is the cat to have! Bengals are nice too. I almost got one before I got my Sphynx.

Leveldrummer- Gorgeous pups! I love black and tan dachshunds.

FishyBusiness- You would be hard pressed to find a Savannah in rescue right now. Plus...Savannah cats of any generation are illegal to own in Georgia.

This is Turbo.....our french bulldog who is a terror but we love him.

When did you come to our house and take a pic of our Dog Face Puffer?

:)

Great animal family!!

I used my dog's name as my username, this is actually Magnolia (Maggie). She was the runt of her litter - she's 4 years old and only weighs 33lbs.

Ok, I can't get the pictures to post... let's try it this way.
The baby in one of the pics is her sister's puppy, who now weighs about 70lbs, he's huge!

WOW. I've always wanted a Bengal as well.

How do they get along with 12 year old spectacularly lazy DSH cats? :D

When I called someone about some years ago they said I could get one here. Well there goes my cat that could beat up the nieghbors dog...

I have heard that the number one dog for bites is the black lab.

I have heard that the number one dog for bites is the black lab.

Also one of the most popular and common dog out there. If someone actually did a scientific study, weighting the results against the actual population of each dog breed, then I think either the Shar pei or the Chow or Chiwawa would top the list.

Sussed.

At $22,000 it better clean my bathroom, too. Since everyone else has mentioned pit bulls - Yes, proper training is important, but it doesn't change the potential of the animal. If you don't train a lab correctly, he won't eat a baby because a car honks a horn 1/2 mile away. It's the same with a Ragdoll cat. Because of the breeding, it is impossible to make that car aggressive. There are reasons we have laws restricting fully automatic weapons; they don't shoot people just sitting there, but they'll do a lot more damage than a .22 pistol in the wrong hands.

Anyway, here's my Neopolitan Mastiff, Alexander.

I dont have any pictures on this computer but I have a Basenji.

Here is Dozer and Lucy! Dozer is the smaller one.

Gorgeous pets everyone!

And after all my years in Bengals, I have yet to hear anyone stupid enough to spend $22,000 on an "Ashera" which is merely a mixture of a bengal and savannah. For that much money, the cat better live as long as I do. :-)

Sussed.

I have heard that the number one dog for bites is the black lab.

American Temperament Test Society Inc. (http://www.atts.org/temperament.html) is a good source for canine temperament statistics and one that many rescue groups refer to.

Here are some stats (the percentage is the passing score for the number tested). The only dog on this list (and there are many more on the ATTS website) that tested higher than the Pit Bull is the Labrador Retriever.

84.1% of 542
American Pit Bull Terrier

69.7% of 89
Chow Chow

81.7% of 219
Cocker Spaniel

79.2% of 811
Collie

81.9% of 315
Dalmation

76.8% of 1,452
Doberman Pinscher

83.3% of 2,833
German Shepherd

83.8% of 687
Golden Retriever

91.5% of 686
Labrador Retriever

78.6% of 103
Miniature Schnauzer

82.7% of 4,744
Rottweiler

More people get stung by bees than lionfish, but I'll take a yellow jacket over a volitan any day of the week. I'm not arguing occurrence rate, I'm arguing damage potential.

I googled this for you.
"Labrador Retriever kills" - 0 hits.
"Labrador Kills" 16 hits.
"Mastiff Kills" 40 hits.
"Retriever Kills" 54 hits.
"Rottweiler Kills" 674 hits.
"Pit Bull Kills - 16,000 hits.

Just because you've had a good experience with the animal, does not make it the rule. Even if you want to argue pit bulls receive more publicity, at best, it's one retriever hit for every 296.29 pit bull hits.

Xyz...... I flew out our Bengal up to NJ just before Xmas to be bred. It was an arrangement we had with our breeder that she gets all kittens except for the pick (which we get) and we recieve bredding rights for future litters.

Needless to say we just got her back along with a Silver male from another litter to breed with her in the future.

When she comes in heat we will find a stud and breed her once again...Ill let you know what happens if you like...

Here's two of ours. Charlie is a 2.5 yr old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

Larger Black Lab mix - Dakota
Smaller Black Lab pup - Lem
Border Collie/Lab mix - Chopper
