This is my husband's pet toad "Pee-body". We call this "Pee-body in the rose petals. We actually have other pets, but for some reason my husband loves this picture!

Bowtie is beautiful!

Pee-body (a little hard to see) reminds me of my younger days, I loved frogs and turtles!

OK, since no one else is writing, I'm sending another of Bowtie, only more recent...taken this morning while I was posting comments on AR.

I guess she hasn't changed much, huh?

My wife and kids just love bowtie. I did not notice the bowtie, but my wife spotted it from across the room!

Your friends in Virginia think Bowtie is beautiful!!!

Check out her video on Youtube.

Great Topic! Lots of fun!

We offer a pet of the month on our web site resource page. Please visit it at http://www.apella.org  - resource page. We have asked our vendors and real estate sales professionals in the network to supply pic's for the site.

The idea came about a few years ago when one of my trainees wife who would ask what animals he may have seen that day while inspecting homes. He started to take pic's of the animals (most of which are ham's) and would e-mail them to his wife, she would then print them off and post them in her special needs class that she was a teacher for in the school system in Michigan so that her students could enjoy them. From this came our Apella's Pet of the Month.

Should more like to partake please feel free.

Thanks for the post - was a total blast!

my nephew with Kimba

This is my favorite picture.  This is my 2 yr nephew kissing my doberman Kimba.  If you look closely at my nephews chin you can see Kimba is giving him a "wet one".  Sorry the quality isn't too good.  Its a picture of a picture.

08/24/2007 12:58 AM by Penny Florence (Keller Williams-Salt Lake City)


These pictures are totally adorable.  Would someone please share with me just exactly how, step by step, I can post a picture along with one of my posts or comments ?  I am relatively new to this, and would love to learn more.  Thank you so much in advance !

dog photo

This is my sweetheart, Jazmyn.  She looks like an old lady here.  She turned 13 this year...a longer than average life for a Boxer.  I had the heartbreaking experience of having to put her to sleep about 2 months ago.  Her body just couldn't keep up with her anymore.  We miss her greatly.

This is my Daisy!  She thinks that she is a lap dog. :)

Here's Sara Lee.  I enjoyed her furry friendship for 13 fabulous years.  She died at Christmas and I miss her terribly.  Her spirit is always with me.

Sara Lee

Sara Lee was a beautiful English Springer Spaniel, and like her name implied, the sweetest dog you'd ever meet. 

Thanks for letting us all post our favorite pets.

Wrigley & Fizzbo

This is Wrigley our Doberman and Fizzbo our Australian Shepherd.  Sadly, Wrigley had to be put down on Saturday, September 8th, 2007.  He suffered from a seizure disorder and if finally became uncontrollable.  We miss him so much and so does his best friend Fizzbo.  Despite his illness Wrigley was a beautiful, noble, big black dog and a consummate gentleman to all that he met.

Hello fellow pet lovers!  I am new to Active Rain.  Allow me to introduce my Canine Family!!!   I have three dogs.  Buddy, Jade and Tundra.  Buddy is a rescue Siberian Husky/Cattle dog mix. Jade and Tundra are both white Siberian Huskies. Jade was named for her green eyes.  I named her too soon. As she grew up, her eyes turned amber.  Tundra on the other hand, had blue eyes that are turning GREEN...oh well!  Tundra is only 4.5 months old and Jade has taken on the responsibility of being her surrogate mother.  Buddy is getting on in years. I rescued him from a shelter when he was three and he is now nearly 10 years old. Still full of energy though- he is chasing after the puppy that has disrupted his happy couch-potato existence. Tundra at 4 months is the first photo, Buddy is in the middle and Jade in the last picture. jpegjpegjpeg

Missy Sassafras This cat is in every basket possible!  One of three inside, one outside, 1 cocker and one king poodle (toy, just thinks he's a rotweiller)

she bosses us around with those eyes daily!  Little brat is an escape artist, declawed and sneaks out every chance she gets!

Black cat Mr. Bonkers, watcher of the work!

09/15/2007 10:51 AM by Rush Point Realty LLC


pet attack! Sometimes the cats take over! Daddy, are you ok..did the cats do this to you?

09/15/2007 10:54 AM by Rush Point Realty LLC


Victoria - are you a 2 cat family like we are?

Mr. Bonkers looks like he is the Boss!

09/15/2007 10:55 AM by Charles McDonald / Your Trusted Broker for Charlottesville Real Estate (RE/MAX Assured Properties)


What a cool post Charles! Here's our dog Charlie doing what he does best - Sleep!

09/15/2007 10:59 AM by Gaylen Thornton (Desert Heritage Real Estate)


Waiting for Dad to come home Waiting for his daddy to come home from school...Mr. Biggles is totally attached to his boy, and is lost every time he leaves home!  Poor thing! Buttons is about 4 years old, was the runt of the litter, and almost died the first few days we had him..He and my son bonded the minute they laid eyes on each other, and have been inseparable ever since!

09/15/2007 11:05 AM by Rush Point Realty LLC


Gaylen - looks like Charlie is worn-out! did you just brush him???

Victoria - Mr. Biggles is tooooo funny!!!

09/15/2007 11:23 AM by Charles McDonald / Your Trusted Broker for Charlottesville Real Estate (RE/MAX Assured Properties)


Thanks Charles, I have added you as an associate, we cat people need to stick together!  We actually have three inside cats, 1 that moved in under our deck and two dog masters!  Each has their own remarkeable character..and take turns letting us know who is boss! Each animal except the deck monstor and our largest 20 lb gargantuan are rescued from various rotten circumstances.  Our cocker was thrown out of a moving van on the highway. One of my customers knows I am a softie, and brought her to us 8 years ago...She was a mental mess, and is still a neurotic jelly of a dog!  My daughter adores her!  Biggles is a brat.  He was sitting in a kennel on a street with some other pups in front of our groomers..obvious puppy mill..Wyatt saw him and melted over all 3 lbs of him...Several hundred dollars later he quit having seizures, and started giving them to me!  The two most dominant cats were found under the car tires when tiny..together, tenacious and nasty about 11 years ago.  They knew instinctively if we saved them we would be easily dominated, and so it goes, 11 years later they only need to remind us with the occasional puke under the foot to give them more attention!  They sure make the days easier, all the furry messes!  Can't imagine life without them!

09/15/2007 12:58 PM by Rush Point Realty LLC


Victoria - Sounds like a wild time at your home....

We have 2 kids, 2 cats and 2 dogs and it feels like "McDonald's Farm" pun intended!

09/15/2007 01:06 PM by Charles McDonald / Your Trusted Broker for Charlottesville Real Estate (RE/MAX Assured Properties)


I have so many pets and so little space to post!  We currently have 3 days, 2 parrots, one sulca tortoise and a salt water fish tank with crabs, star fish, tangs, little nemo fish and a few others But here is our latest rescue - Jake. One of my clients called me and told me that this dog was swimming in the public pool and would not let the adult get their kids (he was protecting them).  The swim teachers called the police and my husband assigned himself to the call and took him in.  We could not take him to the pound so we brought him home.  We ran ads in the paper and put up posters and no one claimed him.  So now he is one spoiled pup who is not allowed on the couch (as you can tell he does not agree much with that rule)

 

09/19/2007 01:19 AM by Donna Oehler " A.V. Foreclosure Specialist" (Keller Williams Realty)


Donna  - your dog reminds me of my friends new rescue - Ella.  Beautiful Shepherd!

Charles, Well, I know that Jade and Tundra are sled pullers. The Dam of Jade's litter is the lead dog of a sled team that runs short races in upstate NY.  Tundra is from the same line.  Buddy, being part Cattle dog, COULD pull a sled - he certainly is strong enough - but his desire to herd everything into a small circle might make sledding a problem.
