Does your pet reveal your personality?

I just watched a man on tv debate if he could stand a relationship with a woman because she was a dog lover and he prefers cats

I love animals and love a mix. I have a guinea pig and two dogs. One of the dogs was purchased by my husband for a thousand dollars because he is a giant breed. I on the other hand prefer rescued mutts from the pound although Ilove Sphincter the 1k dog too. Yeah, Sphincter. Controller of all assholes..per my husband. but still the rescue owns my heart.

so the poll....what type of pet do you have and did you choose it and name it

i.e.
purechaos...your bunny is why I knew you were a good heart under the bitchiness you sometimes dish out.

also do you think that men choose pitbulls and the like to project a more masculine image or what do you think of men who prefer a bird or tank of fish over a feisty wagging tail

haha. i'm in and out of this message board depending on how many tests or projects i have coming up in my classes, so maybe i missed something, but did the theo hating escalate or something? i mean, he seemed like a nice enough guy... sure he posted a lot, and he started a lot of new, random threads, but he wrote and performed the best germany or florida theme song there is, and that should count for something damnit!!! also i found out recently that a dedicated member of this forum (tortillafactory) took a hiatus because she was disgusted with the way he was being treated, and it's a shame it came to that.

anyways, that was probably long and rambling and off topic because i'm still a bit drunk, but hardpath's offhand comment just got me wondering what got things so bad that lizwest felt the need to leave us...

no! cannot have!

*le sighs*... I for one, and I can't speak for the heaps of others who dislike theo because it's not like we have a cult against him or anything... I dislike Theo because he is quite simply, an attention whore. It always has to be about him, his life, his wife, his kids, his family et al. Do some TLC research using keyword: THEO and you will see him begging for funds to make a trek to California just so he could sit in the parking lot and HOPE adam/drew felt sorry enough for him to invite him into the studio (thank GOD this didn't happen). Oh yeah, and at this same time he was trying to make his passage to Coddyfordia, his wife was extremely preggo, like going to bust any day, and he was willing to leave her alone, just to make this trek... Theo also quit his job because "the man" was putting too many rules on him (being the street corner morning zoo jockey he was) so he quit his job. Theo now travels his state securing star wars dolls, using his wifes money, while she is at home taking care of the kid(s). In his free time, he has announced he cuts down trees behind his house as "busy work" - lack of real job, and bored.

For some reason, his wife enjoys enjoys triology type movies such as him, and continues to support him, because, evidentally, she has never been to this forum.

Personally, I hate Theo because he is the antichrist to everything my own parents taught me to be, i.e, responsible, supportive and a general worth while contributing subject to soceiety...

Theo leeches off his wife, considers his net value in the thousands of dollars he spends on star wars dolls or his own childrens christmas presents (Theo, those are your wifes dollars)and he preaches all about his net worth in his postings.

Great marks, Theo, for giving your kids an awesome christmas, but stop trying to give the christmases you never had, at least on your wifes expense account. Get a job and do it for them!

In closing, those of you who continue to ask why we hate on Theo, please do some TLC research using the search term THEO and you too, will join the band wagon that says...

FUCK THEO.

THINGS ARE SICK AND TWISTED, TOO MUCH WIFE ALLOWANCE
ALL THESE STARWARS FIGURES, SOME OF THEM HAVE LIGHT SABERS

I have two dogs and a rat. What does that say about me?
I had a friend once who owned over 200 snakes, lizards, turtles, and frogs and built a special room for them in his basement. That seems more like the type of pet situation that reveals something about your personality than dogs and cats.

I miss Theo.

One of my sons bought a rat and said it was my present. I was not sure if it was so I would agree to her being in our house but took it on and named her Bathsheba. I had her trained to crawl down the neck of my long sleeved shirt to my hand for rye bread. I eventually let her go in the woods because she was distressed by the caging. He had snakes and eventuallly traded them for things like Nintendo games. (that ought to tell you how long ago!) I didn't form any attachment to the snakes but miss my rat. My husband calls Hollie (guinea pig) a rat, but I catch him giving her treats, so he is a softie under the facade.

What about what you name your pet? I used to have peach faced lovebirds named Amram and Jocebed. (Moses's parents) and I swear I am not Jewish. I actually wouldn't have minded being Jewish. I am a complete melting pot of European ancestors with some Native Indian to blend in. You know, what didn't come over on a boat met them?

Hey, max...Is that YOU in that gif? *ice, ice, baby...Word to your mother* Sorry dude...Just the VERY initial impression.

I had a cat for ten years, then about two and a half ago, she died. I'd get another, but am no longer able to take proper care of an animal.

WHat breed of dog is he? I paid a lot more than 1k for my dog lol. But, I DID try to rescue a shepherd, from 2 diff rescue organizations, and they wouldn't let me have one cause someone wasn't home 24/7.. right... because dogs a) can't be taught to be crated and b) can't hold their bladder more than an hour. gotcha. those people were all nutjobs. Do you want me to adopt a pet and give it a home? or not!? We finally went to a breeder. Kiera's dad is the #8 German Shepherd in the world... note: there are two different kinds of german shepherds: GERMAN German Shepherd Dogs (aka "literal" GSD's), and these crappy American German Shepherd Dogs. AGSD's are bred for nothing, almost always have hip dysplasia, and their temperments are horrible. They are built completely different from the German german shepherds. Anyways, THAT'S the story of how I got my *literal* German Shepherd, Kiera.

I love all the miscoceptions about dogs out there

1. A big dog needs a yard.
2. Dogs "Know" when they've done wrong.
3. Yelling "SHUT UP!" at your dog when they are barking will get them to be quiet.

I could go on but instead I'll say if one more fucking moron ever says "Are you walking the dog or is the dog walking you?" to me I will just kill them and their family. Yeah dude, real origianl. I've never heard that line before.

Yeah, I hear you. It's just people lacking anything better to say and spouting these tired, cutesy expressions rather than actually say anything meaningful or original.

Like when people ask me, "Do you play basketball?" because I’m tall. Thankfully, “How’s the weather up there?” has fallen out of favor.

They kept her for another year or so and then had to put her down. Funny thing is, they told the kids that Cindy was just going to live on a farm. My mom was there when he told them that, and until about a year ago she thought Cindy really had gone to a farm! I guess you had to be there. but yeah.

Speaking of height, my 20-year HS reunion is coming up (fuck, I'm old) and it will be fun because my growth spurt mostly hit after I graduated. I started HS as one of the shortest kids in my class and only near the end of senior year, did I reach average height (I think I was 5'11, maybe 5'12).

I hate the gauntlet of barks. Every other idiot in this city has a bored and frustrated dog locked in their yard, and they set off other dogs like oversensitive car alarms. I just want some peace of mind and some air. Dogs are so pointless.
Cats are terrible too cuz they destroy the native environment. Even a well fed cat will hunt and kill, leaving the uneaten corpses of increasingly endangered species rotting and flyblown under the gumtrees.

The barking depends a lot on breed and how they're raised.

My roommate's beagles do the car alarm thing whereas I don't think Zona has barked even once in the last 5-6 months.

she weighs about 45-50 lbs now.

It's almost scary to think that eventually she is going to be bigger than you are.

my dog barks a ton when she gets excited or if she sees an "intruder" she will have this really low mean bark but really she is terrified and if said intruder were to try and pet her she would pee all over the place. i wouldn't reccommend that though cause i wouldn't risk her biting out of fear.
