Milligan is a Central Austrailian Bearded Dragon. We got him at about 8 weeks old and he was about the length of my pointy finger.. Now his body is almost the size of my palm and head to tip is about 45cm in length. He's still got a little more to grow, but pretty much almost done..

We got him from Jensons, and we were one of the first in NZ to get one since they relaxed the law a little Used to be that these (like most lizards and snakes) were protected, but it's all been relaxed now. So it's just the lizard that costs a fortune, not the lisence..

He's a cool dude anyway.

Used to have a beardie in the UK.. Rep point for guessing his name, and another rep point for figuring out the link! The names are linked, and think that this guy is the second.... :spudwhat:

It wouldn't be Spike would it bugjuice?.

I used to keep snakes back in South Africa..... Bloody crap country.
Still no Cooool animals in NZ

I apologise to any South Africans that may have been offended in what I said there. What I meant was the whole political system and not the beauty of the country.

Tell your wife that if your get your dog as a pup the cat will be able to dominate it. Then as it grows up the cat will have a dog protector for when it cann't handel the stays any more.

We have had this situation on the farm before. Wookie (my parent's last cat, a spade female) used to boss Patches (their Bull Terrier/Mastif cross, also a spade female) around. But if a stray cat came and hassled Wookie, Patches would deal to them. We never encouraged Patch to attack cats (quite the opposite), but the ones that used to keep attacking Wookie did not last long.

I have posted about Slyvester before (See In Memory Of Slyvester The Cat ). My other cat is Kaless (yes it is Star Trek and, for the real Trek nerds, yes the Trek spelling is Kahless). PT, Zapf, Jess and Ant have meet him.

I LOVE DOGS
I know I keep saying this, but these wonderful photos remind me why. Big ones, little ones, fat ones, thin ones, fluffy ones, miserable looking ones. Gorgeous critters.

We recently got ourselves a Hunterway cross Alsatian from the rescue pound named Buster. He's great with the kids, full of energy and surprisingly obedient for a 6month old pup.

Hunterways are new to me, as I'd never heard of them while living 'up north'. What a great breed. Shame my bugger barks at me every time I take him out with me when I jog. But I undrstand that they were bred to bark at lumbering animals.

No photos as of yet I’m afraid, but plenty of him on video.

Here's Brutus in protection mode.

Thats a nice looking Bull Mastiff. Best dog you could own, but then I am a little biased. Mines a lovely red brindle bitch. She's an old girl now. I had a fawn like yours before we moved to Napier but had to put the old fella down. Bumma.

The wifes got a Border Collie and a couple of cats.

It is a red, the light was not good, and yep they don't live long and are easy to get attached to.
A good guard dog that wil not rip intruders apart, thats what the pittie is for.

Hunterways are awesome. Had one I had train from a pup for stock work. Taught him to head (which he did well considering I had been told that Huntways don't head). If you took the horse out you never had to worry if he was following or not. If there was no Hunterway baying then it was time to call him. I named him "Chew" after Chewbarka (?? spelling, the Star Wars Wookie) because that's what his bay sounded like. It used to crack Dad up everytime I told Chew to get behind the farm quad:
Me - "Chew, Behind."
Dad (in dry farm humour talk, like the Speight's Ads) - "One day son he'll do that."

This is Stinkarse. She's about 1 now. She's also a bit of an inbred hillbilly... has six pads per paw. I'm trying to convince her to teach me how to play the banjo. :spudwhat: :spudguita
