Where did you get your pet??

I have five pets, 4 dogs and one cat. Two of my dogs we got from a lady that was an animal hoarder and did not treat her animals well, so my mom said we would take two of them, and one was a puppy so she would never know the horror of living a life like that. One of the dogs that we got from that lady had a puppy, that makes 3. For the fourth one, there was an Adoption Fair, and we were looking at the dogs, and we see this Bearded Collie in a kennel with a bunch of puppies, and the Collie just kinda laid there, not lifting his head or anything, and as my mom walked by looking at the puppies, and the Collie suddenly came up to the gate, just looking at my mom, and my mom said, "He is saying, "I love you, take me home."" And that is how we got our fourth dog. And the cat was Adopted at another fair a few years later. And we were worried at first that he did not like us, but one mourning we see him jump over the fence into our yard, after a night of hunting, and the cat act a lot like a dog.
 
i got my birds from a birdkeeper. he gives them away for free which is nice since co ckatiels are like 70-140 bucks at pet stores.
 
I bought my snake from a reptile shop as a baby snake (she's four and a half foot long now three years later.) I adopted my guinea pig from a local pet store where he'd been dumped. And I rescued my dog from some scabbby woman who couldn't take care of him and was giving him away. 😱k:
 
I got my pet ball python, Vincent, from PetCo almost two and a half years ago. I rescued Luca Lynn (Luca), my mixed/unknown breed female cat, from a shelter almost a year ago. And I rescued her new housemate Apple Jax (Jax), my male Siamese/Tabby cross, from a different shelter the day before Thanksgiving last year. :rose:
 
I got my Chi (Siamese kitten) from craigslist. The two cats at my parents house, the female princess (calico) we got from the humane society and Sir Mocha Chocolate chip (Black Angora) we got from the animal shelter.
 
Chloe ( 14 year old German Shepherd) My mom didn't want her and left her with me one day.

Beau (14 month old Rott) Some ******* on craigslist couldn't take care of him and didn't have the money to get him medical attention he needed as a pup.

Peyton (2 & a 1/2 year old Rott) Some other ******* on craiglist couldn't take care of him any longer because of work, supposedly.

Got young Stanley from a private, some bird in Shepherds Bush - his mother's since had another litter so a new baby brother could be on the cards pretty soon
 
I got my cornsnake from the reptile store in town which is now closed, nearly four years ago, and my staffie I rescued from an idiot on Facebook last year
 
i got my wiener dog from some farm, my rottweiler from some guy in the newspaper and my I found my cat on the streets. and all 3 of them get along so well, lol c:
 
Soo my dog was in a kill shelter in south carolina. In my 21st bday i was suprised with a puppy. My fav wanted a male dog, but when they saw her my dog they fell for her. Soo i was gonna name it henrik then i found out it was a girl, i wanted oreo but my family thought it was racist, lol. Soo i was thinking of names and my favorite food popped into my head pepperoni, and thats what i named my girl dog border collie mutt mix.
 
So for those of you who don't know, I am a teacher in remote Australia. I have two dogs, both from the bush, and here are their stories:


1) Maggie. In my second week of teaching, I was driving back from school, when a tiny sausage dog cross puppy came running across the dirt road wagging her tail. She was all skin and bone, and after picking her up and putting her in the car, I thought she would die on the way home - she was so malnourished. At the time I was staying at a caravan park, because my house wasnt ready, but the backyard of my house was available. All the local petrol station had was Spam in a Can (no dog food), so I gave her that and she wolfed it down! Her stomach looked massive LOL. Then I went out to the pub for dinner. Later that night, I cam back to check and her and she wasnt there ! 🙁 So, I thought 'stupid dog' and went back to the caravan park to sleep. The next day before driving to school, I popped my head over the fence, and she was back!! We have been mates ever since :3

2) Marley. I rescued him from the bush too about a year later. He was a puppy and his owners would just leave him weekend after weekend all by himself.. & I'd heard stories of how the kids had pushed his head under water to see how long he could hold his breath etc. So I offered to take him on & the rest is history.

They've both had their own pups together too!
