Meet Charlie Parker and John Henry:

They're our family dawgs. And, they love to sleep. Boy, do they love to sleep.


Don't mind the fluffy one, he's kind of an A-hole.

And our Chickens. I freakin' love our chickens.


They're incredibly entertaining pets, plus they give you these:

But, it helps to have a really great hen taking care of our hens!

Oh, and I don't just love little dogs. Meet Duke, whose now living on the farm. 225 pounds of best friend.

Chickens are tons of fun indeed… Used to have some living in the country... However, that hen of yours is truly something special...

Is Duke a Saint Bernard?  My brother had one that was a rescue dog. She was four years old and weighed less than 90 pounds when he got her.  Took him a year to get her up to a normal 175 or so.  Sweet dog, but the drool and shedding were unbelievable.

[joesaintjohn]

English Mastiff. The drool is unbelievable. Buckets.

We've been on artifial cave to "meet"  Mr. Fox. He worked there pretty well. That's about it.
It's natural behavior for these dogs (Parson Russell Terriers) With some verbal "pushing" in he went…:D

My dog had a seizure this afternoon. Scariest thing that's happened to me in a long time. As soon as she got through it we took her to the animal hospital and they were very helpful. Told us she's probably epileptic and there no need for any medicine and seizures will probably reoccur.

We got her back home a little while ago and she's still acting very confused and panicked, not able to make sense of anything. All she's done is pace all around the flat and whimpered. Hopefully she'll pass out from exhaustion soon and just sleep. Right now she's not really responding to any of the words she knows so needless to say we're really just anxious for everything to get back to normal.
