We have always had cats or dogs, since I was a kid. My kids want dogs, I think cats are so much easier and less demanding. My cat who was most affectionate and amazing died last year, she wanted nothing more than to sleep w/ someone willing to allow her rest her head on their arm and to lap up a small - or maybe moderate- amount of melted vanilla ice cream, "Blue Bell" if you have and if not then Breyers or Dreyers, but please, not the low fat stuff...
oh april..so sorry to hear about the loss of your cat...i know how one feels...our animals become our companions and ask for little if anything...thanks for sharing your memories with us
Oh no, a pet's thread again!
Jesse, thanks for sharing your pretty face with us too! That's a great photo of you & DH at DrD's... I'd love to meet him sometime, as he's so funny in chat. For that matter, I'd love to meet all of you! Hmmm, perhaps we should get serious about a DG Roundup at the next AVSA convention!

yeah Jill - where and when is it?
I am ready for the convention! Bring lots of AVs to share/trade and good food to go along w/ good company!

Are you going Bob :)) Wish I could !
I would rather meet w/ the forum folks.
oh Allison..heavens no..Im saving my money to come visit you...he he
Violet, where is Dunedin? Is it north of Florida????
Allison, he's a miniature dachshund cross - 17 lbs, and the funniest dog I've ever been owned by.
Here he is, playing with his best friend, my friend's lab:
what a lovely little dog!!!
He looks a little demented in that picture, here he is being adorable:
-Or firing high-power mind-controlling rays at you.
I think Dunedin is on the West side near the Gulf.
Your right Kenton :))
2Z your dog he is adorable :))
Wearing his gift my friends brought back from Mexico:
is he not looking at the camera because he is completely humilated that you took a picture of him wearing the hat? Of course, I think it's absolutely adorable!!
That is exactly what I thought when I saw him. He is adorable. Linda
I was giggling while taking the shot - he HATES being laughed at - hurts his dignity.
He always reacts to that by refusing to face into the camera - gives the supermodel-aloof-staring-into-the-distance-gaze...we were laughing at how far off they were in size - for some reason, they remembered him as being much smaller,
so it kind of just perches on top of his head like that...

Oh he's so cute ! Funny thing is my nurses are always buying Precious hats, boot, scarves.. and she love them. Oh my goodness words can not express how much she love her hats. It's so cute. She was looking toward the door as Tammi left when I took her picture we were in bed. I told Tammi to look back in for her smaile for the day :))
I know I posted these before sorry .
Here we are typing ..
don't be sorry - we love seeing Precious! How old is she?
SHe is two year old "))
I LOVE THAT HAT!!
actually I love BOTH hats! What a hoot!
Hey we're still missing some friends mug shots here... come on gang post your pictures!
Laurie, I think we're going to have to hop a plane and chase a couple folks down the street with Cameras...
just like the papparazzi!
Who you callin' papaz? Jump in the plane, Anita, quick! -And get your camera!
Ok Allison I love the photos but you must stop humiliating that poor thing! LOL too funny.
Allison,
Precious has to be the most laid back dog (dare I mention that word) that I have ever seen! I tried to get pictures of my "granddogs" wearing their reindoor horns and/or santa hats around Christmas, and couldn't get them to be still long enough. They were shaking their heads and looking very puzzled. The reindoor horns ended up hanging wrong way around their heads - looked like some weird kind of beard.
Isn't that the truth! My dog would never sit still!
What always happens when I sit down and pick Zeus up onto my lap:
After the slurp:
Awww, I woul dlove to give him a big kiss and hug!
Just lovely. -And the the human, too.
I don't hang out on the AV forum much as I have NEVER been able to grow them but see many of you in other forums so I thought I'd stop lurking and show my pearly whites.
Here is a picture my daughter took of my husband and I last summer before my husbands award banquet.
I will post a picture of our cat Kazz after for you pet lovers *lol*
Nice to "see" you all, what a GREAT group!
Kim
Kazz:
Wow... a gorgeous couple *and* an elegant cat! In one household!! Now, if only you had some lovely AVs to round out the picture..... ;-)
Check out some of the culture threads on our sticky, especially those about watering and lightening your soil mix... and maybe you'll decide to give AVs another shot! It takes a little experimenting to figure out what suits them best in terms of light & moisture, but they really don't deserve their reputation for being delicate or persnickity.
