For a second I was so confused about the "He models it perfectly" because his picture showing off his collar is no different to the others pictures I have of the other collars I got - then I realised I hadn't even shown those pictures! Oops!abeona wrote:Gremlin is still adorable, and I looove his collar!! He models it perfectly.
I had contemplated this myself before getting my current job. Someone I know from one of the dog forums I am on started a dog walking/boarding business and I loved seeing all these pictures of her out with her dog and a bunch of other dogs on her walks but then when I thought about the logistics of everything? I live 20-30 minutes drive out of town so gas costs would have to come into my charge, I have a lot of small animals at home and don't have any real fencing (dog proof) on the property and of course don't forget the fact that I have a dog who is leash reactive and another who doesn't like dogs being in her face.MouseLover wrote:I hope to start my own dog walking and pet boarding business soon/one day
Never the less, I do wish you luck on your eventual goal!

Two more pictures for you guys!
Gorgeous Ella! I swear the long winter coat always makes them look much prettier.. I'm dreading summer time..
And of course.. Ella, Meg and goat waiting for some feed. This picture reminds me how small highlands actually are. Meg is almost 1 and Ella is 1 and they aren't much bigger than goat..

All about bunnies!
Hartley is growing rather nicely and thankfully she has kept her wonderful personality despite being of an age where females can get a bit.. hormonal.. She's such a cruisy bunny, bring her inside and she couldn't care less about the dogs and just flops down on my bed!
I also have baby bunnies! I've been wanting to breed tri colour standard rexs for a long time but only got my tri colour stud boy Nimbus a few months ago and he has only recently.. "come of age" to do the job but hey, I have tri colour babies and I couldn't be more thrilled. I'll likely be keeping 3 from this litter and replacing a few breeders that just don't work into my line any more for various reason.
And two extra little pictures that I just love!
Well it was ALMOST all about bunnies..

Eek, there are so many babies around here! Baby mice, baby cats, baby bunnies... 
Those first three babies are so pretty, and that's a fantastic picture of your dog.

Haha great action shot there!
The bunnies look sooo soft! Every bunny I've met has been quite unfriendly
I'd love one that was up for a cuddle!

Ooooo, the tricolors are so beautiful! I can't pick a favorite and would love to snuggle them all (at that age).
@MouseLover, I've only met one or two adult rabbits that were friendly. The only rabbit I ever owned, a male, became absolutely vicious when he reached breeding age, so much so that we ended up giving him to a hutchery.

As for those babies, I'm keeping 2, 3 and 9? (the last picture).Thanks! Finally got around to chatting to the experts about how on earth to take a decent picture of a moving object instead of just "winging it" and getting annoyed when it doesn't work. I'm slowly getting there.scaredymouse wrote:Yes, that is a great action shot of the doggie! Â And those baby bunnies
They're super extra softMouseLover wrote:Haha great action shot there!

Standard rexs have coats that feel like velvet or silk 
Yep! Rabbits can be so annoyingly hit or miss with temperaments - you can have one that is such a sweetheart and turn into a vicious piece of work when it hits "puberty". Thankfully while my rexs can be a bit scatty if I don't handle them often, they aren't to bad overallMesaMouse wrote:@MouseLover, I've only met one or two adult rabbits that were friendly.

Now please do excuse this picture.. it might be rather big but I wanted to post an update on how Callie is doing on her new meds. Before pictures on the left which were taken the day she started on Apoquel and the "after" pictures were taken today, just shy of 6 weeks later.

It has been OH SO VERY long since I've come onto the forum and even longer since I have posted anything.. life has just been a bit hectic lately I guess...
So update?
I have fish.. a lot of fish - 3 tanks to be exact.. Gee whiz. I had tropical fish many many years ago, absolutely loved having fish tanks in the house but since moving, I haven't had any luck keeping fish alive (other than the ones outside in a fish pond) but since meeting my boyfriend, turns out he has fish and is really quite knowledgeable and helped me get back into fish! Then I went a wee bit overboard and ended up with 3 tanks.. oops!
So much has been happening really. My Mum is having another surgery in a few weeks - turns out some of the sutures keeping her muscles together where the kidney was opened up and basically she has a pretty big hernia which needs to be repaired. The guy she gave her kidney to ended up in hospital as well with next to zero white blood cells and a pretty bad infection - thankfully his WBC count is up and he's fine now. My Grandma, that same week, ended up in hospital having surgery on her back.
And the day before? I was in "surgery" - and hour of digging around in my uterus to pull a certain little IUD out.. Not that any of you needed to know that.
Last time you saw those itty bitty buns was a few months ago and well.. they're pretty stinkn cute even though they are a whole lot bigger
I'm trying to behave and not just be like "Hey! It's been a while" and photo dump all over this thread haha
We had our only lonesome calf born for this year too, little bull calf - black as can be! Even from birth which we have never had before (normally the blacks are born more of a chocolatey colour).
And what else..
We went to the beach today, oh my gosh that was absolutely amazing. I cannot tell you how much more relaxed I was knowing that there was someone else there who could keep an eye out for other people/dogs so I wouldn't be on edge all the time - oh the joys of having a dog that is dog reactive and another who is just nervous around dogs in general. It definitely made me realise how much I pack when taking the dogs out - its never just a "grab a leash and lets go" type thing.
And the best picture of it all? James and I were walking along a sand bar on the beach, the dogs were running through the water and well.. Pip hit a deep spot - don't worry, she's fine, my bigger dogs could walk through it but Pip is a wee pipsqueak.
And lastly, one of the fish I got was something I have been wanting for so long. I had one in one of my tanks years ago but I always wanted a solo tank and I finally got one!

Horrible picture, apparently my camera hates this tank..

So good to hear from you, AppleCheeks! All of the buns look so plush, like a snuggly kid's toy, just makes me want to hug one 
. The dogs have the best time possible at any moment and are clearly enjoying splashing about in the water. My current dog loves water if it's coming from a hose or sprinkler -- she tries to bite the water stream and generally runs amok -- but don't show her water for a bath...that's a whole different story to her!
