We have a 7 year old Shar-Pei who lives downstairs. His name is Dutche (Dutch, aka Brown Dog); haven't got a clue why, as we picked him up at the Humane Society 5 1/2 years ago. He (along with 3 other dogs who could not be adopted) was apparently taken away from a couple who had abused him badly. For the first two years a sudden movement if you were standing near him might make him cower. Aside from being blind as a bat, he's healthy and happy. He's got a cable out the front and back doors, and he likes to sit in the sun (or on the cool concrete of the front porch), and loves to go for rides.

We also have two female cats who live upstairs - BabyFace and Itty-Bitty. They are quite the hunters; they offer sacrifices to my girlfriend at least once a week. Mostly it's mice or birds, but earlier this summer I heard my girlfriend yelling and came out of my office to find them chasing around a little rabbit. They sulked for a week when I took it away from them. Now that he's blind they've become more brazen at messing with the dog.

I have a dog, a samoyed named Dawg and a Quaker parrot named Willie...

In addition, in residence here are:

3 cats (Snowy, Fluffy and Jake)
1 lizard (named lizard)
1 Guinea pig (named Tommy)
and 1 Sun Vunure (named Zini - pronounced Zinny)

And many outside critters who think it's their home because we keep squirrel food and bird food in the feeders most of the year.

Oh, can't forget the handsome Mallard couple that has taken to using our swimming pool for a couple of weeks in the spring and a couple of weeks in the fall
