Who's who?

[lovemyshiba]

My name is Emily, I'm 26 years old, and was married last August 31. We live in State College, PA (home of Penn State), and I work at a local restaurant, and my husband sells Hondas. I don't remember how I found Pet Talk, I'm so happy that I did though--I just love it!!!!!
I love playing with the dogs, watching movies and tv, shopping, and spoiling the dogs!!!!!
I'm owned by Kito, the Shiba Inu, Abbey, the crab (beagle), and Riley--the silly little wonderful lab pup.
We just bought a house a few months ago, and are (im)patiently waiting for the landscaping to be done and fence put up, so our dogs can have the yard to play in!!!

My name is Tonya, I am 25 years old. I am a construction splicer for the phone company. I am married to Mike who is an electronics controller at a corn plant. I have a five year old son, Jaden. We own our house and live in central Califonia. My husband hated animals until he met me. He'd never had a pet in his life. One by one, I have brought animals home and he has fallen in love with them. He now understands that they are little people too. My husband races sportbikes, so we are pretty busy with that. My son rides dirtbikes. I am an amatuer Thai Boxer. I haven't boxed in months because I am recovering from shoulder surgury right now. I'd had my shoulder injury for years so it prevented me from getting serious, but I plan on getting more involved in the boxing once I am healed. My pets are: Dusty an australian shephard-husky, Roxy a husky, Teddy a pomeranian, Ron and Raven cats, a fish, and two snakes.

Here's a pic of myself. It's the best I can do right now, sorry it doesn't have my family in it. (I'm the tall brunette)

p.s. Jordan, I love your name! That was actually my #1 name choice if I had a girl.

I'm probably the oldest person to reply here so I won't divulge my age but I have two grown children and a grandson who is almost 2 years old! I'm married and work for an ophthalmologist part-time. I have had poodles all my life and my current two are Bella and Ripley. I also have two cats, Trevor and Andy, I enjoy gardening and reading.

My name is Clara I will be 45 (URGH!!!) this summer. I am owned by 2 dogs and 1 cat.

Leo (2 1/2 yrs old) is a Rott/Chow mix I got from the SPCA about 2 years ago after my Buster(Lab) passed from bone cancer. He is a sweetie pie, but stubborn as all get out. I love him to death though. He had some behavioral problems but 2 years, 2 obedience classes, and numerous training books later - he is a doll.

Penny Lane (6 or 7yrs) is a small GSD mix who was a stray I just adopted from the Buffalo Animal Shelter (where I do volunteer work). She is very timid with people, but very alpha with other dogs. She is crazy about Leo though. She has some health problems, but we are dealing with those now. Nothing major - she has low protein levels in her blood (doc thinks it is nutrition related), and she has trouble with bladder control. So my house is now covered rubber backed rugs and plastic.

Sam (5yrs) is a DSH who I inherited from my mother when she got very ill and had to go into a nursing home.

I work as an implementation specialist - which is a fancy way of saying I take my companies software and tweek it to fit customers needs. I just bought a house with a huge back yard just for the dogs. I know its pretty pathetic to buy a house for your dogs, but what can I say - I'M HOOKED ON MY DOGS.

I'd like to buy our dogs a bigger yard, but for now we bought them a mini-van

Why do you think we bought our house

[RockyRoad]

I'm too lazy to put the color on...

My name's Britt, short for Brittany, the ugliest name on earth (at least for me). If you didn't know already, I'm a girl.
Uhhh I love music, it's practically my life. Same with my pets. My fave singers are Cher, Creed, Eminem, and other people. I'll listen to almost anything...with the exception of absurd and/or obscene songs. I'm also a BIG Clay Aiken fanatic, yes I'm one of those gullable suckers who worships the ground he walks on.
On to my pets:

Lady is an 8 year old German Shepherd Dog. Her bithday is March 16th. We got her from a wealthy breeder near Brookhaven, NY. One funny thing about her is that if yo hug her for more than 3 seconds, she'll start to squirm around and wiggle out.
Sally is an 8 year old Tabby Cat, we're not sure what specific type of tabby. Her b-day is April 19th. We found her in a cardboard box in my dad's work, and the man asked us if we would have her.
Floppsy is my 3 year old Lop Rabbit, whom I personally own. Currently, she lives outside in a 3-room hutch (occasionally spending days & nights out on the porch), but when school is over (in 25 days) she will be getting litter trained, and is gunna live in my room w/ me. We got her from a breeder, who was my dad's friend, as a gift.
Perrie is my male Dwarf Hamster, whom I also personally own. His b-day is...not actually sure...I'd have to check. He's almost 6 months old though. He lives in a spacious 10-gallon tank (which I had not got around to telling you all), complete with a wheel and all the works.
Speedy is my sister's Dwarf Hamster. She lives in a huge 3-floor cage. She is almost 6 months as well.
And the bettas, Mooka, Bubbles, Popcorn, Aqua, & Ocean, are well...bettas. They live in a divided 10-gallon tank, except for Ocean, who lives in a fish bowl. Aqua & Ocean are almost three months (at least to the best of my recollection), and the other three are almost 6.

wow, srry that got so long.

This is why I love Pet Talk - everyone here is so devoted to their furkids. It is so nice to be able to talk about your pets and not get those funny looks
