Meet the Pets Fun Monday

posted Monday, 7 January 2008

fun monday 

I am hosting this week's Fun Monday and I gave the following assignment:

Let’s meet your pets. I think most of us have at least one pet and I would like to see your fluffy or scaly pal. If you don’t have a camera you can tell us about him/her/them. If you don’t have a pet tell us about a pet you had or a pet you want. If for some weird reason you hate all animals we want to know why gosh-dang-it.

Fibi in her bye-bye basket @ 4 months old

Fibi in her bye-bye basket @ 4 months old

My beautiful Fibi is now 4 years old but here’s a couple of photos of her at 4 months old in her basket. She loves to go bye-bye! We trained her from the beginning to ride in a basket we just had to keep growing the basket as she grew. This particular basket I made in a basket making class.

hello

Brodi is 3 years old now and has a totally different personality than Fibi. He’s more nervous in the car and more curious about new things. Fibi is mellow, Brodi is active. They’re both Lhasa Apsos and my daughter has their son, Toby.

toby

This is Toby from last year, he’s had a little haircut since then but he is absolutely wonderful with Tristan (my grandbaby).

I thought you might also like to see my mom and dad’s pets.

Chinese Crested (Hairless)

This is Willow (blue) and Tinker, they’re Chinese Crested - hairless. I still think the breed is pretty ugly but I know a lot of people like them.  Willow loves to walk around like that! He's really sweet.  You can see Tessie kind of in the background there.

tessie and hobo

My parent’s have two little Yorkies (Tessie and Hobo) and two Crested. Can you believe they all came for a visit when Tristan was born and all the dogs did very well?

Willow

Tinker
 

So yeah, we're dog people.  :)  Ok, scoot along. I don’t want to take up all your time today, go meet some more pets.  Oops, I almost forgot to tell you about the bagel photo.  Everytime I am gone overnight I must bring home a bagel.  Fibi will jump in my suitcase looking for it.  They looooove their beagles.  :)

Oh, and Thanx for playing!  Hope you had as much fun as I did.

Thanks for hosting. I haven't been playing in Fun Monday much recently due to my crazed situation, but I absolutely love this topic (and my pets), so I had to pitch in!! The Crested's are a bit offputting at first sight, but those last 2 photos...adorable!! Such a wonderful family full of dogs!

Thanks so much for hosting this week! What a great topic to post about. Your pooches make me really sad that I'm incredibly allergic to dogs....they're so cute! But I can't say I think your parents' hairless ones are very cute. :-)

Your pups are adorable. My mom used to have a Lhasa, I loved her. The Chinese Crested kind of freak me out a bit though. I have never actually seen one in person. Thanks so much for hosting...I am off to write my post now!!

Such cute little pups! I love the lhasas but I'll bet it would be easy to learn to love the cresteds, too.

Thanks so much for hosting this, Lisa.

I've never heard of your parents' Chinese Crested...they might be fancy, but they're...a conversation-piece of a doggie if ever there was one.

Your babies, on the other hand, are stinkin' ADORABLE! Basket doggies are the cutest :).

Thanks for hosting this week, and giving us a reason to show our smallest of babies!

(I hope it's ok...I used your FM logo with my post :) ).

Oh my goodness. I have to admit, I don't think I could ever have a hairless dog. But I'm sure they're just as lovable. Fibi is just too cute for words!! All your furry family are just too precious. I'm so glad you did this Fun Monday. It'll be fun to see everyone's pets.

Thank you for hosting this week. Your doggy's are so cute. I'll have to wait till morning and post mine because I forgot to take pictures today. Ps. I have tagged you for a meme on my blog. You are not obligated to play if you don't want to.

Cute doggies. I like be basket baby. I think you would have to acquire a taste for the Crested ones, but there is something cute about them, merely because they are dogs. I will have mine up tomorrow.

Hi! I've never done a Fun Monday but after I read Janet's post about her animals I realized the post I have up of my dog playing tetherball fits perfectly. Can you add me in retrospect? If not, I apologize.

Love the first 2 pics with Fibi in the basket! Too cute! I love dogs also but haven't been able to have one in a couple of years due to living in a rental that didn't allow them. We just brought home our 2 new puppies this weekend. I'm not sure about the hairless dogs though. Interesting, they would have a hard time here in Alaska!

I absolutely LOVE your two adorable pups!!! They are super cute and I adore their names!! And your parents dogs....they are kinda cute too...I've never actually seen a hairless dog...I imagine they have the personality so people learn to love them! Thanks so much for hosting, Lisa....TERRIFIC JOB! Mine's up and ready!

Your dogs are too cute. But that Willow takes the cake. What a funny looking dog! I would so love to have a dog like that. I am all for the odd looking pets. LOL. He would fit in quite well around here.

Lhasas are not my favorite breed, but those pictures of Fibi are just too darned cute. After all PW's cute Charlie pictures, I'm wondering if it was a good idea to sign up for this Fun Monday. I want a puppy. I don't have time for a puppy. We don't need another pet. But gosh darn it, I want a puppy.

Must admit, have never had laundry so cute as that. Can't wait to tell my daughter to get over here to see that Hairless Dog. She wanted one at one time...Does it qualify as furry or scaly? Thanks for hosting this week. Lurv your new Fun Monday Logo !

What a wide variety of canines going on there. The basket baby pup is so darn cute! The Crested are certainly unique and they get to wear rockin sweaters. Can't beat that!

Thanks for hosting this week,Lisa! What a fun topic!

Your babies are just too darn adorable. I don't know if you've seen 'How to Lose a Guy in Ten days', but a Chinese crested is in the movie, and my husband thought it wasn't a dog at all. Personally, I think they look so cute in their sweaters. And the Yorkies, Marissa wants to get one, for Christmas one year. You always post the cutest photos. The puppy in the basket is my favorite. Happy Fun Monday, Lisa!

Thanks for hosting this week Lisa, I loved the topic. Your pups are adorable, but I have to admit, those Crested hairless pups freak me out a bit. Hairless cats freak me out too...I don't know what it is, and i'm sure they're sweet and loveable as can be, and yet... ;-)

Hi ! I am not sure how I stumbled accross your site but I love it ! Your dogs including your mum and dads are so cute !! even the hairless ones although I must admit they do look a tad weird. I only came acrross your site today but although a day late I thought I would post a picture of my pet. Take Care Melinda

Lisa your Lhasas are major cute--especially in their baskets. Wish my guy would work with props. Have you heard that laughter follows Chinese cresteds? After looking at your parents' CCs can see why.

Thanks for getting me in the Fun Monday loop. Now i can remember bloggers by their pets.

Fibi is so cute!! So is Brodi, but Fibi poses cuter :-)

Those hariless dogs are definitely different looking. As my mom would say " they are cute in their own way". Ain't that the truth?

I like the Yorkies. We had one and he was such a sweetheart.

Very nice pets you have. Thanks for hosting and I loved the assignment.

The photos of Fibi are adorable. And my first dog looked like a skinny version of Tessie and Hobo - not that they're chubby, my dog was just tiny. And Willow and Tinker are, um, unique. I have never seen dogs like them before.
