Ace of Spades Pet Thread, June 1Good afternoon and welcome to the almost world famous Ace of Spades Pet Thread. Thanks for stopping by. Kick back and enjoy the world of animals. Would you like a treat? Let's relax a little with the animals and leave the world of politics and current events outside today. blue BIG Purina has formulated a cat food containing an egg ingredient which they say makes cats less allergenic to allergic people. What do you think?
Love the Pet Thread, so I decided to share some pictures of my dog with the Horde. This is Trevor, my current German Shepherd. When I lost my previous German Shepherd, Max, several years ago, I knew I had to get another one because they are great dogs. With the help of All-Shepherd Rescue, I adopted Trevor last year. He's now 8 years old and a super companion who loves chasing squirrels and other varmints in the backyard. I sent you several pictures so you can choose which to include. They are, from top to bottom - Trevor recuperating after his first bath, Trevor on his couch (that I am sometimes allowed to share), and Trevor in the snow. Hopefully, he'll be with me for a long time. When I occasionally post, it's as Retired, thank God. What a great dog!
Hi! Sweet, sweet mitten! Hi KT-after seeing the greyhounds of NR Pax in last week's Pet Thread, I thought it would be fun to send in pictures of the Galgos I am dog-sitting. Galgos are slightly smaller greyhounds that speak Spanish, and are rabbit hunters, not racers, though Galgos are very speedy. Unfortunately, once a Galgo ceases being a good, productive hunter, the owners may abandon or kill the dog. This is allowed under Spanish law, as Galgos are classed as livestock and not as domesticated pets. A breed that's new to me! Thanks for the great details. They look relaxed. Buckley says he's ready for @Pride! month... (He chewed up one of my favorite pens.) ? Can't be angry at a dog with a face like that, can you? I love the Pet Thread so much. It's so interesting and touching to hear everyone's pet stories. Two of the three in the trio picture (Al the tuxedo and Bing the white guy) have been on the Pet Thread before. They were with the long-haired tuxedo in the single picture, Sy, who died two and a half years ago and it's taken me that long to talk about it. He was such a darling. The gray fluffball came along from a rescue a few months later. They said he came from a hoarding stitution but they didn't specify animal or other but I suspect both. They were surprised that I chose him at the rescue. They said all they did was hide in the corner of the cage and wouldn't interact with anyone. I said that I could see that, but I thought he needed me. He's an odd one. Doesn't speak at all, and it took two years for him to warm up enough to jump on the bed with the other two clowns. Very shy still, and very sweet natured. His name is Jimmie, after Jimmie Lunceford, American jazz alto saxophonist and bandleader in the swing era. I name all my cats after jazz people. Jimmie is a beautiful cat. And I know the feeling, not being able to mention the loss of Sy for so long. The three cats look great together. I am sad to announce that on Tuesday, we had to have Duncan put to sleep. He was diagnosed with osteosarcoma back in April and it quickly took a toll on him. He was a playful and lovable boy who viewed every person, dog, cat and rabbit as a new friend. Attached is a picture from the day we adopted him. We are so sad that you have lost Duncan. He looks and sound like a wonderful dog. Everyone grieves in their own way, but Roger found a tweet that expresses some thoughts that many of us may have upon the loss of a pet. It seems appropriate today.
If you would like to send pet and/or animal stories, links, etc. for the Ace of Spades Pet Thread, the address is: Until next Saturday, have a great week!
I closed the comments on this post so you wouldn't get banned for commenting on a week-old post, but don't try it anyway. | Recent Comments
