ModelRailroadForums.com is a free Model Railroad Discussion Forum and photo gallery. We cover all scales and sizes of model railroads.

Rico/Johnny: you guys have a house full and I bet each one gets the same amount of attention as the others. Great looking families (gangs).
Ken: We once had a Basset named Henry. He was the most lovable critter in the world and we stayed laughing at all the things he would try to do.
BTW: After thinking about it, I should have dubbed ours the "WILD BUNCH" instead of the "Bama Boys".
This is Lucky. We love him so much we call him "Yucky". Here he is tearing up his big brother's toy.

This is Yucky AFTER he destroyed Champy's toy!

One tired puppy!
This is Champy who is just worn out by the whole experience!
Our black lab/chow mix is 3 yrs old and still acts like a retard! He part killer part retard!LOL's I don't think he'll ever grow up
Now our weener dog mix he's your typical rat dog!
. Lucky has beautiful color and reminds me of a friend I had when I was a boy. Nothing bothers the Champ when it's time for a nap. I don't have the slightest idea about Hedgehogs. Is that fur? What do they do as a pet?
Chris: I would bet Weener dog holds his ground with the Lab.
when Jacob and Jerry( the weener) rough house you'll find Jerry bitting on hard enough to be dragged! Jerry clobbers Jacob! but Jacob just plays so nice with Jerry. Jacob would be lost with out Jerry!
all my dog are rescued!
Jacobs story, The dog we had before him was Jorden. Jorden was hit by a car 3 years ago! we seen it happen.
to make a long story short....Some kids were flying down the street and hit and killed jorden. They stoped and helped me bury Jorden in the back yard. all the while you can hear my son and wife crying in the house The boys learned a lesson that day. well a month later we were looking for another puppy for Ryan. We Came home empty handed, no puppys! the young girl up the street(one of the boys girlfriend) came to the house that evening with Jacob! Love at first sight....Jacob was 5 pounds he wasn't winged yet and the vet said he was filled with worms and fleas and was enemic. the vet gave him a transfusion and we had to bottle feed him for a couple of weeks 3 years later and 85 pound we have a Moosey! One Mean guard dog and loving member of our family!
Now, Jerry he's a card!
Jerry was dumped out in the country!
I found him on my way home from work. he was walking down the middle of the road. He was covered in cow poop and had a scraped eye. It look like who ever dumped him through him in the poop! well I picked him up and the rest is history! He's more or less my dog. He's a free spirit, if let out on his own he will wonder off! He knows he's cute and know's enyone would take him in He got out on us 3 time and everytime he's been bought back each time. every person that brought him back fell in love with him
as I type this Jerry is right beside me. He's got personality he doesn't get mad he gets even!
Every dog we have and had has a sad story! but they end happy!
We miss you Amy, and Jorden!

I should have qualified that: It is usually around 4-5 years before a Golden or Lab matures...mentally, i.e. puppy disposition. Rusty, our Golden from past, was like a pup at 9 yrs.old.

I promise...this is it for now
This is Lily, my albino hedgehog. She was a rescue from a horrendous pet store situation. She was just beautiful and not a bit scowly like she appears in this photo
and last but certainly not least...
This is Random who I rescued with Lily. He was a chocolate chip hedgehog and was just as loveable as Lily.

"wonderful photos! Yucky, is SOOOO cute.
and the hedgehogs! Share the story, please?"
Several years ago, my neighbor came to my door saying that while she was weeding near her window well, she something move. She asked if I would go with her and check it out. Sure enough, in the window well was a little hedgehog. I called animal control and told them what we had discovered, and they replied that hedgehogs were not indigenous to the area, therefore it couldn't be a hedgehog. They said to just leave it alone and it would crawl out and be fine. Sheesh! I told them it would die if left there...and hung up. So my neighbor and I scooped the little thing out of the well with a shovel and put it in a box with some water and lettuce. Go figure. What did we know about hedgies?? I called a local vet and asked if he wanted a hedgie. He told me to bring it on over and they would take it. Well...by the time I had a chance to take it over, it was tooooo late! I had fallen in love with the little guy. I read I all could and researched hedgie care online. I had a cage built for him, bought him a wheel and some hedgie necessities (and toys!) named him 'Morty' and life was good. He was so sweet. He would sleep in the hood of my sweatshirt as I cleaned my house, he loved to hide in my flowers in my front yard and he was just a joy.
He developed a cancer that is not uncommon to hedgies and I had to have him put to sleep after about 2 years.
My next hedgie, Charlie, I rescued from a high school science lab. When I first saw him, he was without food, water, wheel, and had cedar chips which are deadly for hedgies. I sort of hedgienapped him and took him home. He was such a funny little boy. He would come when I called him and loved to be held and to play hide and seek. He developed, after a couple of years, wobbly hedgehog syndrome which is a paralysis which starts in the hind feet and slowly progresses through the entire body. It is extremely prevelant in hedgies.
After Charlie, I one day stopped by a pet store (I am not a pet store person, but I was curious to see of they had hedgies). When I asked about hedgies, they looked puzzled for a minute and then 'remembered' that they did indeed have some. They opened a CLOSET and on the top shelf was a BOX with 2 hedgies in it. They wanted over $500 for the pair and I was not going to pay that. A couple of days later, after not being able to get them off my mind, I called and TOLD the manager that I had $200 and I was coming to get the hedgies. After I picked them up, I called and reported them to a hedgie rescue and they were not allowed to carry hedgies anymore.
I named the babies Random and Lily and just posted the pictures. They were great pals and I just loved them. They lived good long hedgie lives.
I don't have a hedgie now, but I am starting to get anxious to rescue another!
Wow! Way too wordy...
