:laugh2: Well spotted. I never thought of that.

Can't remember any of the years but growing up i had a fat black fish called Bullseye and a couple of hamsters when i was really young and had a lizard called Oscar when i got a bit older which drowned itself. We also had 2 cats called Stan and Mavro and a blonde Wire Haired Dachshund called Sylvie who was the cutest thing ever. Now we've currently got 3 cats called Ollie, Monty and Harvey.

Anyone else suddenly feeling ancient?? :joker:

Anyway...

1990 - 2005 we had a cat... he was 15 when he died so was around for most of my childhood (I was 5 when we got him). He died of a heart attack whilst trying to use his litter tray. Just like Elvis :(

Got a dog in 1996, she was supposed to be "my" Christmas present but latched onto my mum like a limpet :joker:. I moved out in 2004 so she sort of stopped being "my pet" then but she lived until 2012 so a decent age as well.

At Uni my girlfriend (now wife) got a Russian Dwarf hamster, who lived for 3.5 years even though their expected lifespan is 1.5 - 2 years.

Yay my pets live long lives! But then... oh no...

We got a kitten in September 2014. He was a bit mental / stupid (I think he had genuine issues) and he was hit and killed by a car in Summer 2015 before he even turned 1 :(.

Currently my daughter has another 2 dwarf hamsters.

Tadaaa

Yeah it doesn't help that one of the mongrel Staffs that I lived nearby was in Birmingham where all of the big Dogs was being bred to be vicious.:laugh:

But yeah pedigree Staffs seem to be a lot nicer.

I hate to even think of that, that anyone wants to so endanger a Dog as well as themselves and others, to make it more more aggressive.

Pointless.

When someday I get to own a Dog I want him/her to be friendly towards strangers and friends as at the end of the day they're suppose to be a pet so I agree with your analysis.
