We have a Pharaoh Hound rescued early this year from the Humane Society. We just love her...she seems young and less in age than they thought. A very timid and shy dog but she's coming out of her shell. Dislikes going out for a car ride (which is different for us since all our doggies have loved it). And we have a lot of pet feathered babies...domesticated and wild ones. LOL

I have 3 Golden Retrievers. My darling Jonah is my avatar and he just turned 9 years, Sam is my dumb blonde at 6 and Anna is my gentle rescued girl at 7 years. We took Anna overnight to find her a home- 6 years ago! Guess she found a home alright.

I have 4 very spoiled basset hounds. Queen Xandy Bear & Huggie Bear are both 9 years old. wee Gracie Allen is almost 6 and Clyde Kadiddlehopper is 5. Xandy Bear is a bit of a celebrity in basset rescue circles. She was Grand Marshall for a Waddle in Ocean City, NJ a couple of years ago and was Queen of the Michigan Waddle this year(all based on pledges raised). This year we donated $2,900 to Michigan from our Woofle which is where most of my quilted items end up. Xandy Bear is from a very respected breeder but the rest of my goofballs are rescues. They rule the household and it's true that bassets have slaves-they do not have owners which is why I'm known as the blondeslave in basset rescue circles. The big boy in the front of my avatar was Moosie Bear who left us for the Bridge last year at 12 1/2.

I have 2 cats: Lucee came to us as an adult and was already spayed and declawed. She's a lilac point Siamese. We don't know for sure how old she is...guessing 8-10 since I've already had her 6 yrs and she was not young when I got her. She is very heavy and the apple-headed kind on siamese. She is also a bit crosseyed and clumsy without her front claws. I love her dearly and our latest habit is for me to lift her up onto the bathroom counter every morning for a little loving and sip of water from the faucet.
My 2nd cat is a lynx sealpoint ragdoll named Princess. She is long haired but we have her shaved because DH is allergic to the hair. She looks kind of silly when it's first cut but I lie to her and tell her how pretty she is so she won't get her feelings hurt. She loves to play with her toys and will play fetch like a dog. She is super attached to me and cries if I'm not there at night. She is also a talker. She is never allowed outside because ragdolls are known to be too friendly but she loves to sit in the garage and look out the screened door. We have a cat door from the kitchen to the garage so she can go there whenever she pleases. Of course Lucee won't go through the cat door...so I can't put their litter box out there..drats!
