My Pets

My first dog was a collie named Velvet. We got her when I was really small and she lived 7 years. She was a really sweet and gentle dog. She had several litters of pups by a male collie named Yankee. He was a gorgeous tri-color. Velvet was sable & white.

At the same time we had a guinea pig named Snow Flake, an albino. We also had a green parakeet named Chipper. Chipper and Snow Flake often ate together. Snow Flake would squeak whenever we opened the refrigerator since that's where we kept her lettuce.

When Velvet died, we got Candy. She was a black lab pup. I loved that dog so much, she was my best friend.

Candy had 2 litters of pups, both with the mutt up the street named Adolf. My sister kept one puppy and named her Kelly. She was a regular Lassie! Here is a picture of Candy & Kelly.

Then we got Gypsy the Bassett Hound. Well, my brother Chuck actually "owned" her, but she quickly became my dog. She was so adorable and sweet. As a teenager, whenever I would cry, she would lick the tears from my face looking at me with such a sad expression that it was as if she were empathising with me. But alas, she barked too much and my Dad finally gave her away.

Now I was petless. A horrible thing.

Tiki was our first family pet. In an apartment, we couldn't have a dog, so we got the next best thing.
A rat can be a marvelous pet - like having a very small dog. Tiki had a wonderful personality. Kenny was thrilled with his birthday present. He enjoyed playing "hide & seek" with her. She hid under the throw rug and Kenny would find her. Hey, he was only 1 yr old. When she tired of the game she would run to "mommy" for protection.

Toni was my first dog. I picked her out myself. She was 9 weeks old. Back then Rottweilers were hard to find - very few people even knew they existed. Everyone kept asking if she was "part doberman".

When Toni as just 5 years old she developed cancer of the lymph nodes. I started searching for a puppy before she went, so she could help ease the transition, and Toni could help teach her. I searched for a long time before finding just the right puppy for us. Ayla was only 1 week old when we picked her.
