Do you take better care of your fish then yourself?

aaah the dingo....i have an ACD as well. she's a handful. i love her to death but she's just a ball of energy. and thank god for her "babies" (squeaky toys) that keep her occupied when i'm trying to do water changes and do housework. i give her a baby and she plays with it so she's not underfoot.
the rest of the time we go for long walks and she plays in the creek by our house. she's a very good dog. i'm thinking about maybe getting her to do agility. she definitely has the stamina for it.

Oh everyone gets taken better care of than me....I forget MD apts when I get busy at work...put off mamogram because busy at work...forget dentists apt..same reason
Put off applying for kids college loan because busy at work....go home late because busy at work...there's a trend here isn't there?
That's why I have the fish...stress relief!!

Ramirezi, you must have trained your ACD better than we trained ours! LOL

The Dingo, well, he's always underfoot and never occupied. We did have him in nice, private doggy lessons when he was a puppy, and he minds my husband wonderfully, but he pretty much has my number and knows how to get around the "rules" with me.

Smartest dog I've ever known in my life... way too smart for his own good! I could tell you stories, but I'm sure you have all the same stories too! We thought we'd have to find him a new home when our children came along because he was just SO rowdy! But he's never been anything but totally gentle and protective of them!
