Ok lets meet the family that lives at home lol my human kids have there own homes lol This first picture is of me ( the human) Ivy (the cat) and sissy ( the tort) lol The next picture is of our young dog Bonnie. We got bonnie from the pound...she had been terrably abused...the pound had to put her in a crate with a sheet over it to put her in the car so we could take her home. It took a couple of months before we could get her to come out of the crate (except when i dragged her out by the leash to take her outside to go potty, then she made her home under the sofa bed for a few more months before she would finally let me touch her, then one day while i was sitting on the floor my hand near her head she reached over and licked me thats when i KNEW we were going to be alright! lol We've had a year now and when its just us bonnie acts like a normal puppy lol except when we have to disaplain her, which consits of saying no or did you do that! lol which means shes chewed up something she shouldnt have lol That black little bundle in the next picture is my preshes little sheba. She s been my service dog for about 17 years now. and yes she is at my side 24 /7 even at home. I go into a panic if i dont know where she is lol thens there Watson. When we got watson we had gotten 2 parakeets...one blue ( watson) and one yellow ( holmes) 2 days after we had them home I found holmes dead on the bottom of the cage....Even though they were both in the same cage with a bounch of other parakeets holmes was always a bit bossy in the cage pushing watson off the purch if he/she wanted to sit there and pushing watsons off the food or water dish ...evedently watson wasnt going to put up with that and was the stronger of two...Its hard to inforce the no fighting rule with birds lol This next picture is of Dasy, my grandbaby dog, my oldest daughters puppy. Shes a blood hound and even though shes still just a young puppy she is already as big as sissy. when they were here Daisy had to teach bonnie how to doggy play doggy play, im still trying to teach her how to play with humans. iv been trying to teach her tug of war but when ever i tug on the roap bonnie simply drops the roap and when i try to teach her fetch she runs under the bed when i toss a toy....so we will see if i can eventually get through to her that those are safe things, The last picture is of spike, my better half...I'll be 65 next march and then we can finally get married!! yea!! lol The gray back ground is an old army blankit we have hanging over the curtins of the bay window to help keep the livingroom from getting to bright I can withstand more light now that im on on the bowtox but we still dont want to let it get to bright in here...if your woundering what the t shirt says it says if mama aint happy aint nobody happy if grandma aint happy RUN!! lol oh and the mess under the sofabed on bonnies picture is torn up torn up restrant type bowl you get friench firys in, spike givs the dogs treats in them and as soon as bonnie finishes eating the food she rips apart the little paper bowl...then if were not quick enough she will grap shebas paper bowl and takes it under the sofabed to chew up into little bity peaces lol Well time to get back to work around here lol hope everybody has a great day!!
