Oh...your pack is just adorable.  Sorry to hear about your rat passing.  My brother had a white one growing up and her name was Mallory.  Surprisingly she was really friendly...unlike the gerbils and hamsters we used to have as kids...aw-shucks.  I can't remember how many times my fingers got bit when trying to handle them but Mallory never bit me once.

Anyway, we are a one pup household so after Leland's passing we now have Lucian.  He's 9 months old and weighs 96lbs...oh-my!!

Here's a recent picture of him...

May you finally be healthy and running free at the Rainbow Bridge. Until we meet again my sweet boy!

Templeton never bit either. Which truely is amazing in his case as his father was a wild rat and his mother a fancy rat.  He looked like a really small wild rat lol.  

My pack is aways changing as I babysit dogs as well.  Right now my two regulars are a min pin named coco and an italian greyhound named crispy.  My tripawed Quixote never missed a beat coming back into this crazy busy hyper pack.  Hes my super star lol.

Here's a link to our babies (I'm being lazy lol):

We have a turtle and a 15 year old bearded dragon also :) My Jake had two blue eyes and could see great. He made me a sucker for blue eyed dogs, even just a little bit of blue. Your pups are gorgeous!

There are two lines of Atlas terrier (kinda like labs: working and show ).  There are the Atlas Terriers that trace bloodlines back to the original kennel that made Jack Russells (this is Haidas lines) and then there are the ones that the lady in the states made.  Haida is directly related to the black stud dog the Reverend Parsons kept. Everyone thinks that she is a catahoula or great dane pup.  It drives me insane.  They also tend to think shes blind because her one eye is broken (split). She was bred for work ability and not train ability per se.  She has great work ethic but could really care less about what I want and or think. Shes fun.  

I love the Buckle down collar, I have three of them but always am looking for more lol.  <lainamaina>

Such a cute idea since we always see everybodies tripawds! It's nice to see the rest of the fur family! 

I have an adorable ferret Goblin, 3 rats Sir Gawaine, Kili and Smeagol, then of course the 3 puppers, tripawd Domino, big brother Finn and big sister Bounder, then there are the two kitties, one eyed Legolas and the very dapper Crowley. We also have a betta fish Excalibur that isn't pictured lol. You'll have to excuse all the nerdy names, I can't help it! 

Enjoy! From the entire pack!

Domino had his left front leg amputate on May 13th 2014 after being hit by a car. He's now living a happy healthy life on three legs :)

OMD!!! I'm loving these pack pictures!

Here's my pack:

Image Enlarger

This is Melody on the left and Meesha on the right. Our Harmony went to the Rainbow Bridge back on November the 1st. Meesha is a recent addition, rescued from a hoarder. We love both our snow bunnies so much!

Image Enlarger

This is Pearl and Earl. Our Minnie disappeared approximately a year ago.

This is Earl photo-bombing the game camera.

Harmony became a Tripawd on 10/21/14 (MCT). She left us way too soon on 11/1/14.

"We miss you so much; our love, our heart, our Harmony."

- Pam, Ron and Melody, Meesha, Doublestuff and Mariah Carey
