WOW! These are really good shots of your pets guys! -droolz-
Having multiple pets and of different species is still a new concept to me as i've only ever had one pet at a time!
How do you guys manage?!?!!?
Nikon D700 in all it's glory!
Funny...I say the same thing about Staffy's!
Having multiple pets is a juggling task - as a kid, I had 3 lambs, 2 turkeys, 2 ducks, 8 bantams, 5 dogs (mostly sheep dogs), a cat, and 14 chooks!
My parents made me feed every one of them (although dad would help me with the dogs - as I tended to 'spoil' them a little too much)...

I love ferrets, but have never had one as a pet. Here are 2 of my 4 dogs. They keep me busy!

This has been a thoroughly enjoyable thread. Kudos to the OP.
Rick>>> puppy eyes! puppy eyes! They make my heart melt....
Pine>>> Those are stunning blue eyes!!!!!
Rod038 >>> are your ringnecks tamed?
They are so beautiful! The colours are amazing! I don't think i've ever seen a blue - purplish ringneck before... wow....
Sezzy>> oh my goodness! Did you live on a farm and hence can have so many pets? Or just in a house on a very big plot of land? This is truly a new concept to me!
Kiwi>> what sort of dog is it? I am loving the curls!
Kyliev>> what sort of dogs are they? They look really handsome in their dark suits!
Ok you guys have inspired me to capture Pablo with my DSLR now... but he just wouldn't keep still! Very flaccid when i have him on my lap like he is going to spill over and usually he does fall off! kekeke...
And i have to step up on the potty training cos he refuses to go to the litter box! kekeke....
thanks guys... for sharing your pictures...Kudos to all of you for doing this!

Pixie is a miniature poodle/cavalair/kiwi cross
One Ringneck is tame and the rest are aviary birds. I have 16 at present. I also have a dog and some fish.
Yeah, I love Staffys too, and so do my pups.
We had good friends living literally 2 minutes down the road from us and they own a Staffy pup they got about the same time as we got our ones, so they kind of grew up together. They were excellent little friends. Unfortunately they moved about a year back, but every time the pugs walk past their old house they drag the leads towards the house.
I have a ringneck as well, he gives the dogs so much attitude, they are scared of him. They certainly are a boisterous, alert, confident and fun parrot.

I had an olive breasted lorrikeet ages ago... and he was so much fun! I think he had identity issues as he behaved very much like a puppy!
He was much joy... I would bring him to work and my clients had fun taking turns playing with him! If you rubbed his belly... he would 'cackle'! He was my first bird and i adored him to bits... unfortunately i was renting at the time and had to move out of the place... and new rental apartment didn't allow animals... so i had to pass him on to a vet friend... I still see him and he remembers me... awww...
Some people say birds don't make good pets but i beg to differ...
We have 2 cocker spaniels..this is Lachie.

Thanks salnel for sharing!
They are so beautiful! I'm thinking of my Prince now...
They have this "innocent" look in their eyes.. makes my heart melt... Dogs only ever does this to me...
Let us all say this together...."Awwwww...." lol...
Agree with you there, Smallfooties...Lachie, in particular, has "pathetic" down to a fine art! We used to have a mad cockatiel called Monty, who talked to the phone, had a foot fetish and was in love with my son. He would follow him everywhere, which was somewhat ridiculous..a 4" bird walking beside a 6' 4" boy
ahahaha that is so cute!!!!
What would we do if animals didn't inhabit the world?
We must be doing something right....
We rented a few places a while back, and they actually didn't consider birds to be pets!
Parrots are very smart and it's no wonder if he remembers you. Absolutely agree that birds (parrots) make good pets. You must pay them attention though, otherwise it can be cruel to them (same as most pest I guess).
So now the question is , can an olive breasted lorikeet (that still likes you) and a ferret live together?
I reckon the lorikeet would prefer a smallfoot over a vet!
MARK L >> too funny! hahahaha.... And my vet friend has 2 cats! so they are kept separately!
You've got me thinking now... i'm going to her place on Saturday, see how Pablo goes with Jinks... i might spend a few times at her place with Pablo and Jinks together... hmmm! the possibilities!!!!
So here are my three headaches
