I’ve got a German Shepherd, Zeus from 7wks old he’s now 5+ :-)
it was a GP suggestion. I got one,. Amazing
he’s fully trained to respond to sign signals.. he still has his dangly bits and very obedient for me :-)
Him waiting for me to finish the toilet business.
Hello.I am a pet slave to:Winnie (7) - Black, Bombay Cat, Rescue - She loves to play and snuggle with me. She is definitely one of my best friends.Leo (6) - Leopard Gecko - Stubborn as hell and only comes out for food. Looks like a Disney cartoon character though so I forgive him for that lol.Inca (8) and Aztec (6) - Corn Snakes - Inca is grey/black/white and is nearly 5ft long. Calm, placid, except when it comes to food. Aztec is red/black/white and is about 3.5ft long. Feisty, fearless and sometimes frights the heck out of me (enter his vivarium on your peril).Truffle (8) and Chaos II (6) - Tarantulas - Truffle is my biggest. She is a Chilean Gold Burst. Fairly calm most of the time, until you give her a locust, then it's definitely Truffle 1 - Locust 0! Chaos II is a tiny Chaco Golden Knee (about the size of a 10p coin). S/He is happy just walking round his/her box. Occasionally feeds on mealworms, but doesn't touch locusts or crickets.Oak and Birch (both1) - Giant African Land Snails - Both calm, sedate and slimy lol. Love their food, especially banana and sweet potato.I am hoping to get another Russian Dwarf hamster soon as well.Mweekie xx
Good grief - snakes and Tarantulas? Naah. Seen Tarantulas in the wild (along with Rattlers and Scorpions) and they scared the bejezus out of me. It's one of the reasons you have a door screen in Arizona - and don't leave it open on hot evenings or you may well get household guests that you don't want, possibly in large numbers(!)
Hi PersonAnon,I can understand people who are scared of snakes and spiders.My aunt, brother and ex-fiancé are all nervous of my spiders more than they are of my snakes, but I very rarely handle them in front of people, in fact, I only ever take my tarantulas out if I am transferring them into a bigger tank or changing their soil (which I do every 6 months or so).I did have 10 tarantulas at one point, but over the years, my collection has shrunk to just the two now.I have helped children over the years get over their fears of snakes in the past though, but I only ever used Inca for that as Aztec is too much of a hot head to handle much.Mweekie xx
