Welcome! You'll love it here!
I would be too scared to step foot in your house with that many tarantulas!

Hi there...I'm kinda a newbie too but I will say "welcome" I've enjoyed my stay here so far, so hopefully you will too and we can all get to know each other

See, I've been trying to tell my hubby that having 3 dogs in the house does not mean we have a "zoo". He doesn't believe me. So I will have to tell him about your collection of animals and maybe he will let me get that bird I've been wanting hehe. Hats off to you hun, cuz I couldn't live with tarantula's. I can't even look at them in the pet stores without getting freaked out. NOW....the snake...that is waaaaaaay cool. I love snakes!!! (yes, i'm weird like that...deathly afraid of any spider...big or small...but will play with snakes all day long LOL)

congrats on the puppies...I hope it all turns out wonderful for you and your family. I can't wait until I can breed one day. I haven't decided if I will breed maggie (my yorkie) or if I will get another one down the road to breed...but I am definitely breeding great danes. Hoping to have my female in the next year and will breed her once she is about 2 years old. we are currently looking for about 5 acres to build a house on and then will get my dane i used to raise them and miss it terribly. I also hope to open a pet spa one day. I hope that happens within the next couple of years.
this way I can be around animals all day but not bring them home

again...welcome...and hope to see you around a bit

Welcome Debra. I'm so glad you have joined us. This is a wonderful group of ladies & I love it here. I'm one of those "weird" people who loves snakes & spiders but my hubby along with my mother & sisters would NEVER come inside if I had any .

Hello Debra and Welcome to 4WomensTalk. Don't be afraid to jump in and join us in our chatter. It's always nice to "meet" another yorkie owner. I have a 1 1/2 year old male named Reuger.

Welcome Debra!
It's always nice to have new members joining us.

I've been here at 4wt a while, and can tell you the place is blessed. We have no one here who isn't wonderful and friendly and supportive. It's a great community.

I have a standard poodle named Moses, and a black/white tuxedo type cat named Sebastian. We used to have a bit of a zoo too, with 9 horses, many cats, a wolf hybrid, and a pet racoon. With age we've cut back considerably.

If I had spiders, my daughter would never come home. Same with hubby and a snake. LOL

I'm looking forward to getting to know you!
HUGS

Hi and a very warm welcome to you!! WOW, you have your own little petting zoo at your house. How cool is that??

I love animals also. We have 4 dogs, 1 cat, and a horse. All of whom are loved and spoiled.

Glad you joined us ladies here. It's such a nice forum.

Look forward to getting to know you.
