I did change the description of this forum however I might also possibly change the title. I don't wish anyone feeling obliged to post a photo of themselves. It's simply a forum to introduce yourself if one wishes to do so.

Great pics. and beautiful dogs. I've always wanted a bull dog and to name him Rufus for some odd reason! I'm afraid my African Grey parrot Brandy would have a heart attack if she ever saw a dog in the house! Hell....she had a fit when I purchased a new space heater for her room because she did not know what it was! I finally had to remove it and place the old one back in. Are the horse's yours also? The last memory I have of a horse is looking up at it while on my back after it threw me off and that was about 40 years ago!

thanks, they are like my kids. just wish i never let them sleep in my bed. hard to get comfy with 200lbs of snoring bulldog in the bed plus the gf when she stays over. ya rufus is just a bulldoggy sounding name. ya ive heard that some parrots do not like new things in there space. does the birdy have free run of the house? you could always get a bulldog and alternate territory as most bulldogs will prob try to eat the parrot lol. well there my dads horses, i dont ride much maybe once or twice a yr. i find it rather boring. id much rather take the dogs with and go hiking or something along those lines. well i hope u didnt get hurt to badly from the fall. i know a few of my dads friends that got thrown off of a horse and got hurt pretty badly.

Love the dogs! Phil, Brandy reminds me of my pugs; when they see a new piece of furniture, they are so surprised and go into a fit of barking, and sometimes lift their leg on it later. They also hate to see folded clothing, they'll pull it right off the table.

Welcome to the sight, Sandman! I have found it to be quite a usefull resource for learning about bonsai, and the community is indeed very friendly.

Travis
