Show off pics of your pets, tell stories, anything you want to share about those special animals in your life 🙂 Post as much and as often as you want!




Here are are my fluff babies DJ and Gunner (also called Lulu or Lou). They are mother and daughter. DJ is my baby and Gunner is a daddy's girl. They are approximately 9 years old and very spoiled!

This is DJ. She loves to be near me.

Miss Gunner Lou loves her catnip carrot

@samls324  Thanks!   Yes, he was a good cat.  It was hard to let him go.  Zelda is such a spoiled old lady!

Oh goodness @ghrelin Zelda is so adorable - I love her pawsome picture! I'm sorry to hear about Zergling that was a difficult decision but as his mommy, you did the right thing.    Thanks for sharing your adorable babies with us!!

@ZombieMetroAnt  I wish I was as photogenic as Zelda!  She really does start posing when I snap pictures of her.  It's so adorable.

Yes... it was difficult.  But he was so ill that I was worried he would pass away alone while I was out of the house.  He would cry at me to pick him up and hold him and I'd walk back and forth in the living room, rubbing his back and singing to him.  If I stopped he would cry again.  It was heartbreaking.

I opted to pay extra to have him put to sleep at home so he wouldn't be anxious in his last moments and so that Zelda could sniff him and know that he's passed away so she wouldn't look for him after he was gone.

Oh my goodness!  You are such an amazing mom  @ghrelin   what a sweet story - please don't be a stranger and share as many pics as you'd like of lady Zelda and your heavenly boy, Zergling!

Sending you lots of virtual hugs!!

This is Rowdy. He's my long-haired dachshund!

[prettyinpa]

He's so cute!  I bet those eyes get him a lot of treats, he looks like "Hey Mom, got any more of those yummy snacks?"

@missalysia,

 I love long-haired dachshunds!  What a sweet-looking doggie!  Darling Rowdy!  🙂

[starsandbucks]

Ahhh he's too cute. Look at those eyes he's giving you. He loves his mama!

Um, where do I apply?!

Imagine yourself getting to stay at the most amazing accommodations when travelling – from French farmhouses to Australian beach villas – all in exchange for looking after an adorable furbaby. A company called Trusted Housesitters allows you to do just that.

The concept is simple, yet genius – it connects people wanting to travel the world, but feeling guilty about leaving their pets behind, with trustworthy, vetted travellers who would love to look after their house and pets in exchange for accommodation.

To secure the most breathtaking houses to stay at, you’ll need to build a good reputation. But that’s relatively easy to do if you’re willing to petsit in your town in exchange for reviews. Your chances of scoring that dream mansion getaway are higher if you also make sure to get someone to write you a character reference and have your ID documents checked online.

Then you’re ready to hit the road and get to housesit that three-story mansion you’ve always dreamed about – while enjoying the most charming four-legged company. Some people quit their jobs to do it!

This looks like fun, it would be neat to house sit a place with fun dogs and horses!

@ZombieMetroAnt No way, I didn't know there was such a thing! I'd love to do this for a living too.

Yeah hes a good looking dog .I work during the day and I feel bad because the puppy gets anxiety / scared / nervous when I leave him / leave the room his crates in  to go to work.The crate looks like a childs play pen though its open so he shouldnt feel as closed in but he hates that too lol.I saw this thing called the thundershirt . I want to try and get that and see if it works hes pretty big everyone comments on his large paws so I might need a large / x large for him.Anyone here try the thundershirt ? is it worth it does it even work ?

My puppy just whines sometimes and I guess hes anxious / scared when people are not with him 24/7.

Everyone at Petco loved him lol he got his nails clipped and a little hair trim and bath because he needed a bath I made sure he  was washed  he threw up a lot in the car on the way home and his paws had vomit on them I wiped them off with paper towels in the car lol yeah not a fun car ride  so we needed the dog to have a bath.We left for the breeders house at 10.00 am we got home by 4 or 5 :00 in the afternoon so it was an all day affair.I was exhausted by the time we got home I dont really even recall hearing the dog at night whine but I'am sure he probably did a little bit.I was soo tired I like passed out.
