I'm jealous as fuck of your dog. He seems chill. Does he bark lots? Is he the kind of dog that will run around for hours?


Haha thanks, he hardly barks. He has a really playfull yelp he does when he's really excited, but he stops as soon as I say something. His true bark is only heard a few times, if I accedently step on his foot or if he's really mad. He plays with the cat all day and they run around like mad, they take lots of naps, sit at the window and look outside at birds.

My old cat JB would play fetch with his reindeer when he was little. He loved that little toy, even when he grew up he would carry it around with him everywhere. I got him other toys and he couldn't care less about them, he only cared about his reindeer.

I miss him, he was catnapped.

I still have his reindeer though.

Edit: Picture of my boy Josh (JB).

I ran ahead a bit and hid, dropped my jeans and took my top off and started chasing them whilst spraying beer all over them and making weird noises.

I wasn't really a cat person 'til I got Josh. I was at my girlfriends brothers house, momma cat had a litter, they were all black except for him. He was the only one who befriended me. Chilled with me while we watched some TV. I had to take him home. His little kitten winter coat was the cutest thing ever. It was so it was so thin and longer than the rest of his fur, but softer than anything I have ever felt.

So, I started building a 29 gallon vivarium to house a small group of poison dart frogs back in december.  I finished about mid/late January after getting everything planted, adding leaf litter and getting new lights.  The plants are all doing well, especially the peperomia.

Here's a shot of the tank from about a month ago:



Plant list:
Peperomia prostrata
Dischidia Bengalensis (wide leaf form)
Dischidia ruscifolia
Neoregelia "Sara Head"

Last week I purchased a group of three Phyllobates vittatus.  The guy I bought them from threw in a fourth frog since they were a little smaller than he usually likes to ship them.  They're about three months out of the water (morphing from a tadpole to a froglet).  They're pretty cool little guys and are actually considered an endangered species as they are endemic to only a small swath of land in Costa Rica (these guys are captive bred, though).  I've been feeding them springtails and D. melanogaster fruit flies.  Right now they're in a couple of temporary 2.5 gallon tanks (two per tank) untill they get a little bigger.  I'll try to get some better photos of them; they mainly hide out under the leaves and cork bark I have in there for them...

Here's a video of one eating some springtails: http://www.flickr.com/photos/shaunathonjohnson/6796229864/in/set-72157629512301477/?likes_hd=1

That's awesome. So what happens if you were to accidentally touch one?
Or you would have to rub your eyes or have an open cut of some sort to get the toxin in you?
Just curious.

They aren't poisonous in captivity.  Their poisons in the wild supposedly come from their diet; I think it's a certain type of beetle or ant they eat.  Since their diets in captivity are different from those in the wild they don't ptoduce the harmful toxins.  But, if you were to touch one in the wild the toxins would have to come in contact with with a cut, your eyes or your mouth like you suggested.

My new homie Grizz.  He's a black lab/Australian cattle dog mix but neither parent were purebred.  Right around 8 weeks old in these, maybe 9 weeks old now.  He's been the best puppy I've ever dealt with.  Still have to wait a little bit to take him to all the fun dog places around town but we've been doing lots of exploring in the parks and in the woods.  He's going to be such a panty dropper.
