So here is Rex, 12 year old Newfie/Lab Mix.

I got him for Christmas after my father found an ad in the paper from the pound saying he was found in front of K-Mart and will he have a home for Christmas. My dad went up secretly and 'kid-tested' him (I was 7 at the time), and he passed. He's been with me since Dec. 23 1997. He is the oldest of my boys.
The supposed reason we think Rex was abandoned was because Rex had chewing problems. He succedded in chewing OFF the wooden handle off our wheelbarrow in our barn.
This is Kane, my 9 year old red doberman.

Kane was given to my family for FREE after spending the first 4 years of his life tied in the neighbor's back yard barking 24/7. My neighbor was moving and didn't want him anymore, so he was given to us along with the chain, stake, and dog house. He bonded with me and he is my best friend out of the bunch. Everyone in my house proclaims that he is MY dog.
This in Indy, who is a 7 year old Lab Mix. (He doesn't like cameras)

I got Indy as a puppy one summer. He came from a litter of 7 from a friend of my mom's. Indy kinda does act 'gay' by prancing around and crossing his front paws like he's got attitude. Indy is my most protective of the bunch.
Last is the betta fish, Reno.

I got him for Christmas in 2006. Reno lives in my room in a 1 Gallon fish tank. He is named after the red head character from Final Fantasy VII.
This is my new kitten, Bleu

Bleu was given to me for Christmas on Rex's 12th anniversary/birthday on Dec. 23rd, 2008. She was from a friend of the family whose two year old daughter called her "Blue". We changed the spelling around to the French "Bleu" and stuck with it. She is my only lady in my pet family.
