Pets

It was a tough choice.

I have 2 dogs in my household;
A 2.5 year old German shorthaired pointer. (Will upload a more current image later on.)

and Oscar a 4 month old Maltese Shitzu

Didn't think id ever get another small dog again after having to put down my previous bishon shitzu after around 7 years .

Very well mate, bit of play fighting every now and then but Tara sorta acts as the mum to Oscar.

Oscars more rough then Tara is most of the times haha

So do Tropical Fish count?

We've had an aquarium for a few weeks now. We've got 4 Balloon Mollies, 1 Orange Molly, 1 Swordfish Molly, 1 Sailfish Molly, 1 Black Phantom Tetra, 2 male and 1 female Guppies,1 Sucker Catfish a yellow Snail and my favourites 2 Clown Loaches named Zig and Zag. Clown Loaches are the funniest, weirdest fish ever, they are quite shy but follow and copy each other all the time, they lay on their sides and snuggle up to each other to "sleep".

The female Guppy has been pregnant for a few weeks (dunno how that happened) and yesterday she had 35 babies.

Zag

 

[Mr Reliable]

I think they have to have names to qualify as pets? Zig and Zag are pets. What are the names of the other fish?

PS - Molly doesn't qualify.

PPS - If the snail is unnamed, how about Caro?

 

[ShinbonerBaz]

Harps, Basti, Narni, Goldy, Mullet, Boof, Boomer.................... do I need to go on?

 

[Dan]

Yeah fish count.

That's nice collection you got there Baz. Must be pain in the arse having to clean that tank though.

 

[ShinbonerBaz]

Snail is now called Caro

Snail is now called Caro

What did the snail do to warrant such a horrible name

Mr Reliable suggested it. And if you saw her up close you'd understand.

 

[ShinbonerBaz]

Na, it's not too bad, magnetic cleaner for the inside glass, the filter system and Caro and Adrian (the Sucker Catfish) clean up a fair bit and we do a 1/4 water change every 2 weeks which includes using a pump to suck the crap off the bottom. There is a lot more to the whole thing than I thought though, water temperature, ph level, which fish can live together etc. etc.

 

[TinyK]

Yeah fish count.

Tiny likes Fush n Chups

PMSL at Clyde the other day. At nearly 12 years of age, back legs not too flash due to arthritis, managed to stretch on those legs and take down a pawpaw and scoff the lot from tree in our yard. Though, when sprung trying trick again on remaining pawpaws got a squirt from the hose and told "NO". Not been back since.

Helped himself to a seat at the cafe....

As you would.

Clyde would be helping himself to fellow diners food.

[theduckfan]
