Now that you have all seen my tarantulas and Cyclura Cornuta here are the other animals that are part of our family zoo hehe. First we have Winston. Winston is a 4 year old Thoroughbred horse that stands 16.2 hands. He used to be a race horse and we adopted him. He's a loverboy. He likes to lay down and put his head in your lap. That's kind of strange for a horse hehe.
Next we have Dozer the English Bulldog and Rygel the Pug. Dozer was abandoned in an apartment building by his owners. The people that moved in 2 weeks later found him in a crate filled with his own urine and feces. When we rescued him he was complete bald and had major infections in his eyes and ears. He had entropia in one eye and cherry eye in the other. After surgeries and lots of antibiotics and love he's the dog you see now. We call him our living piece of furniture because all he does is eat and sleep.
Rygel we bought as a puppy. He's now 5 months old and quite a handful. Him and Dozer are best buddies. And no we didn't set them up for this picture. They actually hang out together like this all the time lol.
Next we have BJ. Stands for Blue jeans you perverts. We found him as a kitten wandering around a Walmart parking lot. There is an interesting story about him also. I don't like having cats. My wife wanted one very badly. So I told her that if she ever found a certain type of cat then she could have it. I made up in my mind what I thought would be an impossible cat to find. I said it had to be a manx cat that was all grey and looked just like the one on a commercial I saw. The very next day we see this manx kitten running around the parking lot all skinny and looking like he's going to starve to death. So my wife grabs him and says look just like you said. So I had to give in and let her get him. Go figure
