The Official R3V Pet Thread

Maggie turned 10 this year, and we've had her for the last 8. She's getting awfully grey around the chin and belly, and limps on the leg she broke back when she was 4.
On the upside, she's getting much more calm as she ages, so I can bring her to the shop and work around her now.

She made it up until December 2023, two months after my daughter was born. They would've been best friends right now, but Maggie had a tumor in her chest the size of a melon that was crushing one lung and her windpipe. She was 14 and there wasn't much to be done.

Fiance and I picked up a Newfie puppy last week, should be about 140-145lbs fully grown :)

used to work for a guy who had a Newfoundland/Black Labrador mix - to this day, that was one of the best dogs i have ever encountered

cute pupper, enjoy it while it lasts - he will be massive, in short order

Looks like a sheep in pic 1.

I'm sorry about your pupper.

Had to send the fuzzy one on to the next life today...... He was 14 though and has been in a lot of pain in the hips and spine nearly a year now and has had a hard time getting around the house even with very little improvement with meds and diet. He had more back county miles hiking with us than most people will see in a life time, and far better at smelling unseen bears than we were... You will be dearly missed my friend, until we meet again....

Here's our little idiot Daisy. She's currently 11 months and one of the best behaved dogs I've ever seen. She's a boxer/blue heeler mix and is turning out to be a great trail riding dog.




Also quite the dock diver.

How is the sloth?

I'd love to see an update on the sloth too (and the hedgehog!). :mrgreen:

This is our canary, Tiny ('Petit' in French... he's from Quebec). He's 20 years old and still going strong, with a life expectancy of 10 - 15 years - I think he has reverse mileage fraud. He even outlived his mate and kids! He's in his element when he's rocking out to his favourite music. My brother summarized him perfectly: "He loves Metallica; hates coal mines." :)


He's a great supervisor when I'm working on car stuff. ;)


He sings with me when I play guitar. :)


His singing volume is equal to factory machinery at 3 feet. :shock:


He always perches on his food.


Stretching out his feathers in the sun.


Bed time. :yawn:

We also have tens of thousands of other "pets":


One of our hives... the fence was to protect against skunk attacks.
