    I'm just curious. I seems that we have a wide number of people with exotic pets. I m just curious as to what all you Hubbers have.

    I'll start:

    5 Dogs (Mix breed-Spot, Dalmatian-Zabu, Yorkshire Terrier- Codie, St. Bernard/ Collie mix- Bella, American Pit Bull Terrier-MIA)
    3 Fancy Rats (Zoe, Lexi, Co)

    2 Leopard Geckos (Banon, Anubis)
    1 Snake (Damien)

    2 Gargoyle Geckos
    4 African Fat Tail Geckos

      I have a rescued Greyhound. He was rescued from Ireland by the Dogs Trust after he finished racing. He is called Shadow. He was very nervous when we got him and was frightened of everyone. He has settled down now. if anyone wants to get a dog I would recommend a rescued greyhound, they make lovely pets.

      Hello all, I'm a new "Hubber", my name is Mark and I currently have 3 dogs, and two cats. (I say currently, because I sometimes foster animals and do volunteer rescue work. I will list my friends in "household" pet seniority order, and since I've worked all over the country (U.S.), my pets represent that.

      (Cajun) Gypsy - my soon-to-be 16 year old German shepherd, that I rescued almost 10 years ago from the Humane Society in N.E. Louisiana. She is my best friend, sweet and beautiful, great with kids and most other dogs, and is the "alpha dog" in the house. I was very lucky to adopt her, and even at her advanced age, she still does 2 miles a day with me. (I credit the dogfood/cheeseburger diet.)

      Chewy (Chewbacca) - A "chow-ranian", my stepdaughter found on the beach in Ocean Springs, Ms. 8 years ago on her way to college, and nows he's probably about 11. A very unique looking dog and Gypsy's husband. He's not scared of anything and pretty much does what he wants. (He's the smartest of the dogs in a sneaky, cool way.) PS: He came with the name on a tag...

      Sunny- A big, loveable calico cat with 6 toes on each paw. She is from a city shelter in New Jersey, (My only N.J. "homey"), and is about 9 years-old. Tolerates the dogs as long as they don't bother her too much and insists on walking on the keyboard while I type. Likes to cuddle.

      Morgaine- From Oregon, a 4 year-old petite Himalayan/Siamese mix
      with blue eyes, a beautful kitty! She loves the dogs and always follows us on walks. I had renters/roomies in my house in Oregon that had four cats. They never really bonded with her and she always hung out with my two dogs and Sunny in my half of the house. When I was moving back East, I was going to ask if they would give me Morgey, (a weird name, they named her after some strange movie), and before I had a chance, they came to me and said, "She's be happier if you take her.)

      Finally....Vinny! a 4 year old "golden Pit-treiver"(80% Pit 20%
      Golden, he was the first foster I ever kept and he is from Stockton, California. (loves surfing, blondes and tofu...)He is a big, nutty, happy dog, loves kids and cats, and likes to play 24/7. Gypsy keeps him in line, and Chewy corrupts him. My friends at the Stockton Animal Shelter Friends (SASF), had an urgent all out call for a foster, because he was a little wild and high energy from the shelter, and he's big and really strong, and didn't show well. He trained very easily and he brought some puppy love and enthusiasm to Gypsy and Chewy and after 3 months I couldn't give him up. I'm so glad I kept him. Morgey and him are best friends, and he is what is RIGHT about most Pits. (I did change his name from "Wolfgang", at the pound to "Vinny")

      An American Pit Bulll Terrier whom we named "Wally" in order to disarm those who fear the breed because of the media-induced prejudice.  His registered name is William Wallace Braveheart and he's as gentle and sweet as he can be.

    Three cats: Waggles (who truly seems to think she's a dog), Velvet and Cookie.
    Leopard Gecko: Yoshi aka Creature (unfortunately I suspect his end is near.  I got a phone call from a heartbroken kid about an hour ago because there's something seriously wrong with the poor thing).
    Red-eared slider: Clyde. 
    Dog: Champ. 
    Fish: varied and unnamed.
    Hamster: Furby.  'nuff said.

    Do kids and spouses count?

      Do you breed?

      My morphs include:
      Bell albino (I'm getting 2 more in the beginning of March),
      Tremper albino
      RAPTOR
      Tremper Blazing Blizzard

      My racks are packed! I need to sale some of my SHTCTBs, but most of them aren't breeding size yet, so they're not at their full color scheme.

      I'd love some nice Bold jungles and Bold stripes.

          I did not receive your email, but I responded to your comment on my leopard gecko not eating hub.

          Breeding is a big commitment. There have been many times that I've wanted to sell everything and back out. It gets a little much to handle sometimes. I wish you luck.

          I need a RAPTOR male. Most chocolate albinos are just incubated at low temps. Not many people want to buy them. Why are you interested in one? I'd look for albinos with white markings versus the brown ones. I have both, and I find the white markings are much prettier and sale faster.

          I currently have a few darker albinos, not quite brown, but a darker pink/tan color available. All are younger females.

    We have a cat named Chloe too.  She's an orange tabby.  She came to live with us after the couple that lived down the street who owned her broke up.  After the girlfriend moved out of the house, she just came over to our house and adopted us.

    She's one of three cats in our block that have picked their human owners versus the other way around.

    The three dogs Darlin the Great Pyreneese, Boss the Boxer and Sheppard X, and Tucker the Shitzu let me live here in the house with the 2 Bearded Dragons named Martha and George. The 3 Leopard Geckos, Leopold, Leona, and Leony live in the office with the 2 Packman toads
    Packer and Manny. The Cockatiels Zac, Zoey & Zazzoo are the the last of the Zoo collection in the house. Bud and Weiser are the watch goats and Horticulturists in the barn with the cats La, Bats, & Blue, Rorque, Hocus, Pocus, Pudge, & Orphan Annie being the crowd controllers (mice) also in the barn.
    That's all and yes I agree I must be crazy but I love them all...(many of these were brought home by my youngest daughter and were kind of unwanted rescue cases). After all if you feed 6 cats or 8 what's the difference? right? And the barn is big.

    I have two parakeets. I call them my tweeties when I leave the apartment or when I come home and by name, Snowy and Sky, when I talk to them individually. They are quite vocal, and even try to imitate outdoor birds when the window is open. They make different kinds of sounds depending on the different sounds in the apartment. It's funny, they get so raucous sounding when the TV is on during some typical shows. And sing beautifully to certain kinds of classical music. I don't spend any time training them, they like each other most, but allow me to handle, feed and talk to them with good response.
    I used to have a parakeet called Mishka that would take a shower with me. He was the only bird and bonded with the kids and I. He would eat from the table with us and other fun stuff.

    Oh it's so nice to be able to share my love for my dog Rosie and my cat Queenie.
    I've had Rosie since she was 4 wks old and she will be 11yrs on April 26/08. Queenie was adopted from one of my friend's mother who took in alot of strays. Unfortunately Queenie (formerly know as Hennrietta) didn't get along with any new feline member. Of course her former family felt they had to find a new home for her instead of giving up the many strays that they continue to home. Queenie is about 14yrs old with the grey whiskers and the laid back attitude. Between the two of them there is no doubt that Queenie is the boss. I am only in a 1bdrm. apt but believe me if I had more room I would without a doubt have as many as I could home. Actually the thought of that idea even makes me smile. smile

        Males tend to reach 3-4 feet and females 5-6.  I'd recommend at least a 29 gallon for males and a 40 gallon for females.

        My BP was great at first, but then I quickly lost interest because he just sleeps. I mean I'm used to  nocturnal reptiles (I breed 3 species of nocturnal geckos), but this was ridiculous for me. He's just to calm and docile. Ha.

    Our pet situation is always evolving, but we currently have one house sparrow that was abandonned by its mother when it was 3 days old. His name is Drumstick. We also have a Maine Coon cat, named Snickers, that was nearly road kill, and a one-eyed hamster, named chiclet, that the pet shop gave us, because nobody would buy him. We also have a tank full of tropical fish with various defects and maladies, as well as two green anoles, and 1 frog that we raised from a tadpole. Not nearly as impressive as some of the lists here, but as I said, it is ever evolving.

    approximately 49 rabbits (I'd have to count)

    The dogs are 2 lab/retriever mix, 1 treeing walker hound, 1 beagle with only two working legs (hobbled up after being hit by a car some time back, as best we can tell), 4 adult Chihuahuas, and 1 Chihuahua puppy.  We have another Chihuahua puppy on the way since we apparently don't have enough dogs in our lives.

    Five of the rabbits are are Jersey Woolies and they actually belong to my youngest daughter.  The rest of the rabbits are Holland lops.  21 are adults - 20 of those are grand champions. The 21st one missed it by one win before exceeding show weight.

    And yes, we live in the country.

    Vivi's made a debut on another thread already, as well as a hub about items dangerous to dogs, but she's a spotlight hog, so here she comes again:

    http://z.hubpages.com/u/252209_f260.jpg

    She's about 12 lbs, a traumatized rescue dog (just to give you an idea of what she went through: not only is she afraid of belts, rolled up magazines, etc... she has a bebe lodged in her back!)  But very sweet, underneath it all, and getting calmer every day.  It's more rewarding, in a lot ways, to have a dog with issues, because you have something to compare their improvement to, as opposed to a dog who's "had it good" all along.

    Hello.

    I am Dawn, and I live in Milpitas, CA aka "Silicon Valley" area and I am currently down to one dog.  Stormy, our sweet "rotterman" (half rottie half dobie) passed away May 5, 2008.  Emmalee, is my one pet, and she is a "red" dobie.  When my sister and I moved out of our parent's home, we had one black cat, "Princess Abernathy" who died 6/07 and Mahana Kaminari, a blk/tn doberman, and she passed 1-07.  Shortly after moving, we adopted Stormy through Doberman Rescue or "Dogworks" in N. California.  Doberman Rescue told me she wasn't certain if she was 100% dobie or not.  I didn't care.  I wanted her!  She had been dropped off at a Vallejo animal shelter, and I think it was because someone tried to dock her tail with a rubber band, which unsurprisingly went bad, and started to gangrene.  Doberman Rescue swooped her up, got her tail and spay taken care of and I was so impatient to get her that I drove up to Fairfield and picked her up at the vet instead of waiting.  About 3 months after that, Doberman Rescue had a family who found a red one drop her off at my Dad's animal hospital, where I was working at the time.  I stood up to look at her and Cupid's Arrow went right through my heart.  Her ears were cropped, and one ear stood up and the other didn't.  Nice boxy paws.  She was just so interested and easy going!  She stayed in the run that day, very quiet the entire time, and that evening I brought her back with me (my sister and I rent the home behind the animal hospital from my parents) and she spent the night, no problems.  The next day I brought her back up and she yelled the entire time!  Its as if she knew that her home was JUST RIGHT OUT THERE, I CAN SEE IT!" and what the heck was she doing back here?!?!  Oh, at this time, my parents were at a sibling's home, welcoming a new grandson, and I wanted to run the adoption by my "landlord" so thats why I brought her back.  Long story short, unsurprisingly she became ours. 
    So we had 3 dogs and one cat for quite awhile.  Then two years ago, "A Pretty Penny"  Penny passed away, with Dad holding her.  Hurt like a son of a gun, and then we were able to get Emmalee.  Then that January Mahana passed away, practically in my Dad's arms.  Same with Stormy and Princess Abernathy.  ALL with my Dad whom they seemingly worshipped!  No kidding!

    Oh my goodness!  It amused me sooooo much how much my critters loved my Dad!  Unless he was to show up in pretty short order, Celeste and I could NOT or should not say "Dad" or a quiet riot would ensue.  Barking and whining and running back and forth, and raising the roof. Rides with Dad, rides with Dad, bring back Dad!

    Well, I better stop, for all those who actually made it through, wow. Thanks for allowing me to reminice about my beautiful "babies", or my K9 kids.  Mys sister calls them her "furry babies".

    Anybody who says money can't buy love never had a cute cuddly attention paying unconidtional love snuggling up to them pet!

    My master's name is Mutt.  He is mostly ChowChow, and very protective.  Kelly is his daughter, and he allows her to live with us.  He takes very good care of me and our home.

    I have one dog, an American Pit Bull Terrier named Tex. You see his happy face in my profile picture. smile He's a good boy! I wish the people that have a negative opinion about APBTs could see him before they make a comment about how "dangerous" of a breed they are.

    I have three dogs

    A dashund/corgi mix named Sparky

    A schnauzer/chiuahaha mix named Penny

    and a demonic standard chiauahaha named Chew-Chew, that would be my little sister's dog, he is interesting to say the least, he got hit by a minivan, took part of the front bumper off and lived, he is rather creepy but loving.

    I have a cat named Shadow, she's a Russian Blue/Siemese mix and well lets just say she thinks she owns everything. She's turning three on august 23rd and to be honest, even with her prissy attitude she is my babygirl. All the animals I've ever had always get treated like they would if they were my own kids, me and my husband are huge animal lovers so when we get a new place we'll probably end up getting a lot more pets to add to the family. Shadow wont like it much though.

    On the other side I had a dog named Harley Budwiser that I grew up with, he was a boston terrier/bull mix, unfortunately he passed on when I was 12 but he'll always be in my heart.

    Then there was Gussy and Gorbachev(Gorby for short), two black and white cats that we had to give up back in 02 when my dad and I moved to a new place, hopefully they were kept together because they were brother and sister and probably wouldn't have been able to live without eachother.

    Other then that I had Goldie the goldfish for almost a year. It was amazing really, it was one of those two weeks tops fish but the fish just didn't die. I was suprised he/she died at all, I thought the thing was gonna live forever.
