Kiska              

 Kiska is a 3 year old Borzoi. A sweet and gentle soul.

Ashly Rose

 Ashly Rose is a Haflinger. She's 12 years and 14.2 hands.

She's done loads of fun stuff such as 4H and the Equestrian Team,

with her former owners, Sierra and Carolyn Ford. I thank them

so much for letting me bring this wonderful girl home!

She's smart and sweet and gentle, and has really helped build my confidence as a rider. Heck, we've even done some barrel racing! (if a wild canter counts!) Feb 2007. (That's Baby Ruth behind

Ashly Rose. Check out this video of Ashly Rose in Lynden, WA.

   Here is Emma, a Cairn terrier (like my dearest Toby and Dorothy's Toto) It's time for a new Emma pic. She's almost a year old and a love-bug.

         (click on Riddley to enlarge)

Riddley is a Bengal which was originally a cross between a domestic shorthair and the Asian leopard cat. Breeders no longer have to go back to the wild cat to maintain the integrity of the breed, but this guy still has 13% Asian leopard cat in him. Riddley shares the house

with two other cats, Beya and Bobbie, and let's Jim and me live there too. Just.

We also shares our home with  Sara, a German Shepard cross from the SPCA, Lollie, a terrier mix from the SPCA, Petie, a pit bull which we found in the road.

Lollie Bridges came from the SPCA in 2003. What a sweetheart she is!

       Twelve pounds of intense (could she BE more intense?) love!

        Baby Petie      

   Meet Petie! We found him in the road - I almost hit him - and after we found the owners, we ended up keeping him. Smart and cute!

           Sara is 12 years now, and the matriarch of the family. She came from the SPCA of Monterey County at around 6 months.

         Here are the donkey girls.
