Kfamr, you have alot of malteses in your family. :p


Yeah, unfortunately, they're all brats! Maylynn is the only one who doesn't growl/bark at your every movement. Hence the reason Maylynn is my favorite. The rest all yap 24/7. :p My grandma wants a bigger dog and always tells me she wants one of mine, but my grandpa doesn't want a big one so she has 3 little ones instead. :p

My grandma actually brought Angel over yesterday. She was growling and yapping at Nala - 5 or so pounds VS 60++ pounds, and Nala was running away scared. :eek:

Actually, I've never met Annabelle. She lives with my aunt and uncle who live in Northern FL. My aunt owns a grooming salon up there and wants me to come and work in her shop for a week or so - so hopefully soon i'll meet her. :D

Two poms that belong to a brother showed up for Thanksgiving.
One of them bit two of the little girls. That's why MAXIMUS was
banned for Christmas.

My sister has three GSD's, BLIZZARD is male, completely white, and two
girls.....HELGA and HIEDI. They are all just wonderful.

I am so unlucky. NONE of my relatives have pets:( :( :( My dad's parents used to have a cat called Puddles when i was very young, but he passed on when i was about six. No other relatives in my family have ever had pets whilst i have been alive. Only in my family household have we ever had pets. The rest of my family cannot understand why we keep them, especially Tia, my rat:( :rolleyes: I've always relied on my own and friends' or neighbours' pets.

My parents had a yorkie for over 15 years, he passed away 6? months ago. My mom and sister want to adopt a schnauzer from a rescue, but my dad isn't ready yet. Amy's (wolf_Q) Sidney is exactly what they want, in the way of looks anyway. Looks aren't everything though, so who knows if that's what they'll get.

My sister-in-law had a cocker mix that passed away this year too (cancer). My S-I-L is pregnant and moved back in with her parents, so she's not going to get another dog right now. She has a cat though.

My cousin-in-law has a great dane.

My cousin has a dog named Gator, but I've never met him, I don't even know what kind of dog it is. I haven't seen my cousin in years.

My grandma & grandpa has had 3 dogs that I've known. They had Tasha and Bingo, one was an australian shepherd and the other was a sheltie. They were very close, when Bingo died Tasha really morned for him. She passed away not too long after that. My grandma & grandpa later got a black lab, Ace. He was 14 years old when he died. My grandpa died a couple years before Ace died, my grandma hasn't gotten another dog and I don't think she will. Ace and my grandpa were inseparable. Ace was even allowed in the church at my grandpa's funeral.

I really don't know if any of my other family has any dogs. I think my great-uncle has a dog, but I haven't seen him in years. When I was little he had a white shepherd and a rottweiler, but that was years ago.

Vizla/Pit mix is probably a VERY hunky dog. Tia, is so beautiful. I don't understand why people hate rats so much. It annoys me because my friend had a rat and they are so sweet! Thanks for posting everyone! It's helping me get to know your families better. :D

I would be able to cover a lot more breeds, but right now most of my family does not own dogs, including a lot of people/families that did before. Here goes:

Parents... none, but looking for a hound that would be my dad's drug drug for his jail and when he goes on raids, etc. And my mom is looking for a newfoundland. The kids still at home have an Australian Shepherd mix who's older than dirt.
One sister and her family--- mystery mutt, probably has some heeler in him.
Another sister and family--- Husky mix, and a Newfoundland.
Yet another sister--- Black and tan coonhound.
ANd I have a mutt, and will probably be back into Beagle ownership pretty soon :D .

Sadly, I'm the only big pet lover in my family except my mom, who just has a cat and spoils my pets rotten. :)
I do have one aunt and uncle who have a dacshund who's 12. However, I'm known as the animal lover in the family and everyone expected me to become a veterinarian, but I'm squemish about blood so as much as I like animals I didn't go for that!

Aunt/Uncle: one chihuahua(Peanut... they took him in after my grandmum died), a mini rat terrier (Taz), and two GSDs(? and ?)
Cousins: two Redbones that they sometimes breed and train for hunting, but they only breed them once a year at the most.
Uncle/Aunt: Black lab(?)
Aunt/Uncle: two chihuahuas (no idea what their names are...)
My mum has ten siblings... so I'm certain that I'm forgetting some...

My father owns two dachshunds, one miniature, one tweenie.
My sister owns a rescued golden retriever, which she may be trying to rehome, which is a long story that's really made me quite upset with her...

Sadly, no one else in my close family has any pets at all :( That's why they can't stand the fact that I adore pets and have two and treat them better than people, lol!!

Parents-I live with 'em, so my three. :) We're also thinking of adding a chihuahua mix.
Not-So-Grandma-Manchester Terrier
Aunt/Uncle #1-Hunter, a German Shepherd, who is Casey's brother (they were littermates). They've had two Goldens-the first one bloated at 10 months, and the second one bit their toddler.
Aunt Uncle #2-a blue APBT
