Whoa, BackfistMonkey makes homemade absinthe? Um, we need to talk.
Here’s my son cuddled up with his ‘furry dog brother’, Major.
Beagles get used for hunting a lot, and then are often abandoned at the end of the season. Such is the case with this little guy - he was left tied to a tree for three days at the end of November last year. CdnPaddy saw his face on the OSPCA website and, well, so much for the guinea pigs we’d planned to get the kids as pets. He’s a fantastic dog - he’s a complete suck, loves the children and has some really funny habits - he can climb the play structure in our back yard and considers the 7 foot high slide platform to be his personal throne from which to survey his domain.
That’s so fucked up. How can people do such things? I mean everybody loves their pets right?
Where did she managed to get them?
I know! I grew up in a rural area where hunting is common, and we always see the same thing - the shelter will be overrun with beagles and hounds every November. Remember though that a hunting dog is not a pet, it’s a working animal, and if he’s not very good at his job, he’s not much use to the hunter. Major is our second adopted beagle and it’s been a great experience - he’s got some bad manners (he jumps up on people and he’s terrible on walks) but we’re working on it. He’s a total sweetheart and worth the time investment. Beagles are so happy and eager to please and be a part of the family, I don’t understand how they can be mistreated.
Ohh! how cuuuute! LOL. good god I just about piss4ed myself! nothing like a few pushups to start the day.
benonmsn cool dog!
This is my kitty Luna.
Here is Tess the beagle… we got her from the shelter 3 months ago, she was 2.

Who knew rabbit hunting was popular in socal? More likely somebody took on the responsibility without realizing that the little dog was a high energy breed. If you don’t have the will to take her out for at least a few miles a day… say goodbye to your shoes!
My family’s sheltie. She lives with my parents in Texas.
I desperately want another dog, especially since I’m single and could use a buddy, but I’m holding out until I get a place with a backyard so I can get a German Shepherd or other large breed.
you are a bad person for owning shelties. my family owns 5 currently and they are the bane of my existence. my little sister got a boy dog (for dog shows) didnt do so well, got a girl dog to show, never did, but they sure made a lot of babies! will comment later when I can get pcitures of all the animals on my family “farm”. including our best named pet, little shit.
Meggie’s the runt of the litter, so she’s not much of a handful. She is a barker though, so its not so bad that she has been going deaf in old age.
OK, not the best quality pics, but at least some:
Twiggy, our recently passed away king of the house (sorry for a really shitty, grainy picture, it’s been taken with a handy):
Here are Frida (on the right) and Kahlo (on the left) in their plastic house (if you can find them, hehe):
And here’s Frida on my hand:
Mishka, had to leave him in South Africa with my parents 
Katje calls him the wheelie bin.
This is my tortoise, and her name is Happy.
She’s a testudo hermani and a little larger than my fist… And she runs around the living room like some slow rocket. [strike]And scratches like a RBSD practitioner[/strike]
I got a Jedi Master
And a Sith Lord

In the meantime;
-To Backfist Monkey and all others who want absinthe:
Don’t brew this shit homemade. It will come out like garbage, and will ultimately just be minty liquor. I’ma hook you up. Go to the Le Fee Museum of Absinthe website, and you can be authentic Absinthe which actually contains wormwood.
Of course, it comes with a special little note that ‘this bottle is for collection purposes only and is not intended for human consumption due to legalities of’ blah blah blah, and is quite expensive but if it’s something you want to try this is the best way to do it. It’s been years since I’ve ordered from them, hopefully they haven’t changed anything.

Actually, you might just want to check with them via email or phone first that they still put wormwood into it, because it used to list the percentage of wormwood contained right on the website and I don’t see it there anymore.
The black and white thing is Winky
The not black and white thing is Chop, and he’s quite frightening at night when he does that
And that last one was a seagull that spent the entire day harassing me at the beach, so it might as well be mine…
