WHat pets do you have? We've got a french bulldog, he rocks, and a few cats. They belong to our family and make us laugh.

Living in an apartment and having an affinity for big dogs, I choose to not have a pet at this time.

Fortunately, I do have an outlet for my affection for dogs. A friend of mine works nights and owns a border collie. I often go over and take the dog for a walk while my friend is working one of his twelve hour shifts, play a few games with him, make sure he has fresh food,etc. It's good for the dog, good for me, and helps my friend feel less anxious about being away from the house for such a long period several nights a week.

Right now all we have is one lone goldfish that eats way too much. We live in an apartment so having anything else is out of the question right now. I hope that we can move into a house soon though.

I used to have a pure bred red nose pit bull. The most beautiful dog I've ever seen. Loved that dog but had to leave him at my last duty station before I got out of the Army.

Honestly it kind of turned me away from pets though because now I feel like no other dog could ever take his place. So I'm dogless at this time.

I have two cats right now, but am still kinda missing my childhood dog. Tiff was a stray German shepard that just starting coming to our backporch every morning, so we took her in. A couple years later, we had to move to an apartment (no dogs allowed) and Tiff was given to some friends of our family. They mistreated that dog and she ended up getting really bad fleas (she was biting herself so much she was raw in some spots). Then they gave her to a guy up north that shot her, I forget why.

Yeah, guess that guy never heard of a dog being man's best friend.

I have a 2 year old Rottweiler.He can be an extreme pain but an awesome protector.I have young children and its nice to know that if anyone tried to come in and harm them or me my dog will eat them for a late night snack LOL.

He's great with the kids and my family but is alert and on guard towards strangers which I prefer.I am naturally an on guard type of person so its nice to have a companion to attack a "bad guy" if need be.

I have a lovable loopy dog who is a total sweetheart. She's part husky, part terrier and part who knows what the heck else. She came from our local animal shelter and our family just hasn't been the same since, in a very good way that is. For a tummy rub she'll be your new best friend.
