I have to labs, one chocolate and one yellow. I also have 3 parakeets. That's more than enough to keep me busy for the moment

I have one American Eskimo Dog named Alec and 4 Sugar Gliders. My standard glider is named Zero. My black beauty is named Ella. And, then I have two mosaics named Cedric and Murdock. :]
I have 2 indoor cats, 1 cat that lives out side the house (kind of got adopoted by us), 1 dog, and 2 goldfish that have taken home here since their owner has been staying here. Named (in order) Arkarian and Zeus, the cat outside (her/she/kitty-kitty), Ozzy, and the fish... lol 
I've got a 3 year old black lab "Phoenix". She is my princess baby!!!!
Then i've got a 10 year old West Highland White Terrier, "Maggie" that i've had for less than a year. I wish that someone would take this one off my hands.

I love 'keets. I haven't had one in years, but I've had some that were really fun. Also, I had a cockatiel. He was a blast!
Seven Turkish Angoras (I used to breed and show them - great cats!), a Weimaraner, British Lab, 2 Congo Greys (Charlie is in my avatar), an Umbrella 'Too, a Spectacled Amazon, a Senegal who is a feathered terrorist, and a wee little half-moon conure.
I also have two angora rabbits (one French, one Satin). I handspin yarn, so they're a pleasant addition on top of being quite useful.
Oh, and a Betta named Hannibal. All of you are lucky that he can't get out of his fish bowl.

My puppy is 10 now and that makes me sad but I hope she lives for another 10 though.
redrhino, how old is he?

Lol! My oldest male dog will be 8 years old sometime next month, I think. Since we found him abandoned, we're not sure of his exact birth date, but he was around 10 weeks old when we first adopted him around Memorial Day weekend of 2003. The next dog we adopted is older than he is, but I have no idea by how much. She is likely around 9-10 years old. She is really getting gray around the muzzle and eyes, and she has some arthritis in her hips. But she is just as frisky as ever!!
She still loves to play and chase her ball around the house!
When we adopted our oldest male, Rocky, it had only been about 2 months since we had put our Beagle, George, to sleep. He was 14 at the time, had severe arthritis, and had developed Cancer. It broke my heart to have to put him down, but he was suffering. We didn't plan on getting another dog so soon, but when we found Rocky, I just couldn't bear to take him to the local shelter!! He had been abused, starved, and beaten so severely the vet said he had no reaction to pain stimulus! And he was just a puppy! About 10 weeks old! Coincidentally, we think Rocky was born around the time we put George to sleep. Rocky is a Coonhound mix, and we knew he would be a big dog. But we just had to keep him. It took awhile to gain his trust, but he's grown into such a loving, and gentle dog!
I think its up to each person to decide when they want to adopt another pet. It isn't right or wrong when to adopt, it's just the right time for each of us. Personally, I'm glad we adopted Rocky when we did. But it doesn't mean we loved and missed George any less. Nothing can ever replace him. Just as nothing could ever replace the dogs we have now--all 4 of them!
Edit: I forgot to mention our 3 cats, too!
