Walking The Dog Or Snake.

Dogs have always been the favoured Pet, and trusted friend of the British, despite the fact it secretes large quantities of highly unpleasant and pungent Sh!te at every opportunity.And has a business partner called Mr Vet who takes your pants down,and shafts you every time Fido sneezes. And in many cases savages the hands that feed it.and barks at all other dogs who come within reach.

You can see the attractions however; Endless Summers playing ball with Fido, Evenings by the fire with Fido curled up at your feet, tossing Fido tidbits as he gives you those sad eyes at the dinner table although you know it's wrong for a Dog to weigh more than you.

Dogs communicate, make you laugh, and are real fun guys to be with.
Whats more, a nice doggie is a friend for life, and doesn't talk,or answer back.

Now imagine your Dog had no legs, was fifteen feet long, devoid of warm snuggly fur, couldn't play ball, was cool to the touch, and never ever stuck it's warm moist nose into your ear as a sign of affection.

Imagine you had....A Snake not one of the small variety but a huge
bloody Python,that could give Paulie a run for his money,where size
matters.

It's true though! People actually keep these coiled up reptiles as PETS!

OK, these 'People' have other subnormal tendencies such as watching Star Trek every night on Video, ' come to think of it, but how the FeK does a huge Snake make any kind of pet?

Dogs whine, bark and pant to communicate, while the bloody Snake sticks its bleeding tongue out at you, or constricts itself around one of your limbs as if to say 'Next year you will be in my body Pal'

Dogs eat good wholesome food, such as, well anything you eat, plus a lot of stuff the cat would have eaten if it wasn't so busy pouncing around cleaning it's face before tucking in. While Snakes don't even bother chewing the specially harvested Rodents,rabbits or chickens you dangle suggestively above it's slant eyed pointy cruel face.

And all the time this tubular gulper tosser is giving you tongue like a drunken Mexican trying to pull passers by.....

I bought a bleeding Chameleon once, but someone left the bloody cage door open, and we haven't seen it since....

The reptilian little bugger is still here somewhere, as you can smell it, and watch insects disappear before your very eyes. You just can't bloody see it.And another advantage of dogs is they keep the garden clear of those horrible sh!te burying furballs called cats.

Back on topic now.......I think there is a desire to have "different" pets with some people. Over the years I have had a number of pets, some not of the everday variety:

1/ Turtle (when I was a kid - one I caught in the creek).
2/ Rabbits - Netherland dwarf and Holland lop.....oh my just realized they were both Dutch!
3/ Mouse - this was actually one my wife "rescued" after she finished her biology degree (they were just going to kill it at the end of the year because it was left over).
4/ Gerbils - once again my wife agreed to take these from someone who had some to give away (it was her boss so she really had no choice).
5/ Rat - actually quite a good pet - very friendly.
6/ Dog - also known as devil-dog......still have him/it after 12 years.
7/ Goffin's Cockatoo - she ended up getting sick and during the treatments went a bit off, so we had to give her away (I loved that bird!)

I have often thought of getting a lizard (Blue tongue as my wife had one when she was a child in Australia), but so far we are sticking with the dog.

Here is the dog, looking up at me and licking his chops because I'm eating something and as always he wants some........



And here is our cockatoo when we still had her.......

Talking about dogs, I got the following letter from a friend, It is self explanitory except the Whalley part. Whalley is the "less desirable" part of Surrey, BC.

Hey all,



A friend of mine is looking for a good home for a puppy he found at a park in Whalley.

This dog has had a troubled past, but with the right care and a loving home,

He will most likely become a good and faithful friend.

Please see the attached picture of this little guy in case you know anyone who'd be interested.

Many Thanks

Had a buddy in college that actually had to shoot his Boa because it tried to constrict his legs while he was sleeping. The first thought I had, was what the hell was the thing doing in his bed? He said that it had gotten out of its cage.

Yes, I remember that one, Padi. Oh, so now he has a mate? Great! What's her name? And how often do they do it?
