lol we had one fish that died not that long ago. He was old.. had to of been close to 7-10 years. Its funny how you get attached to them. They sorta grow personalities. My cousin bought him with a few others and named him after my boyfriend. lol She had fish in and out of that tank. Then gave them all to my aunt and her son. Well same thing with her, she had fish in and out of that tank. He pretty much lived in a small overcrowded green tank. lol Then I took him and gave him a nice BIG tank with only a couple friends. lol Stupid fish lived forever. Brought in a new fish and it wiped out my entire tank, except the howard fishy. It would swim sideways, upside downs. My boyfriend would pet his head and any time we ate pizza in the house it would follow you around the tank.
 
right now I only have my old man Senorr Makorr (arab gelding) and Ellie my husbands new lab puppy. Once the coop is built we will have chickens, I plan on raising our own beef and pork too, and of course we can't go without a goat or two just not sure if I want to get another pygmi or get a goat for milk purpose.
 
I have 13 Minis (well 12 really cause one foal is already sold), Angus the Border Collie, a rescue BC/Golden Retriever mix named MacDuff, lots of Manx cats of all colors and about a half dozen fish.

MMMM...16 minis

1 stinky boxer

2 rescue italian greyhounds

1 african grey parrot

1 ornary mini donkey

1 llama
 
Besides the two minis, I have a Thoroughbred, an Arab, a Welsh/ Appendix cross, a Connemara/ POA cross, some kind of gaited pony, and a Welsh pony.

These are our non-horse critters

Blue, a Cocker Spanial and the love of my life! He talks constantly and is sure that he is a person. He goes everywhere with us, and gets horribly depressed if either my mom or I are gone over night. We bought him at the first show I won with my TB (hence the full name, Blue Ribbon Day). We were told by the lady selling him that he came from her groomer. After being home for three days, he ended up hospitalized with Parvo, it is a miracle that he survived. A few years after we bought him we discovered that the so called "groomer" was running a puppy mill

I love your Berners, my mom bred them when I was a kid and I have found memories of playing with the "teddy bear" puppies.
 
Lets see, I have our old rescue dog Toby, and I lease my llama every year to show with my 4-H club.

And Mona, your chihuahuas are adorable
