RE: Quirkiest/cutest/funniest things about your pet(s)

Two things to know before I tell my dog's cutest habit:

1. My dog's name is Pearl. I adopted her from my cousin, and she already had the name Pearl so I kept it.

2. In middle school I was obsessed with the band Pearl Jam.

Okay, so my dog does somthing I call The Pearl Jam. To show affection, she comes up to me when I'm at her level and she puts the top of her head against me, applies pressure ("jams" her head into me), and just stands there. I have no idea where she got the idea to do it, but it's really sweet. And of course it gets her lots of pets and tummy rubs (her fave).

I recently adopted a 6 years old american bulldog from a shelter named Trouble. She belonged to a friend of mine who led a unstable life. I took care of her for two months last year during summer and had to hand her over to my friend even though I offered to adopt her and give her a stable home. But then one day out of blue, the same friend e-mailed me and asked me if I m still interested in giving Trouble a stable home. I jumped at the chance! Trouble is a sweet-good dog that deserves a good life. Now, I own her.

Now, I changed her name to Chanel (yup after the designer, Chanel!) Chanel is black and white. So the reason I gave her name pretty much explains it all. I m sure you all are puzzled how can I change her name in middle of her transition in my own hands. It is because she is DEAF! She cannot hear and won't know the difference if her name had changed. I would use sign language to communicate with her. I would sign things such as eat, bathroom, outside, ball, go for ride, and many more. She can do some tricks as well.

Her quirks are: She must sleep by touching someone in the bed to know if they re still there. She loves to sleep! She would sleep in ANY position you could think of that a dog can do and then some I never knew a dog could! She would tap me with her paw to ask for something. She doesnt bark. When she finishes her business, she must RUN hard around and around then jump right by me then we re ready to go.

Toby my fat cat is so spolied , here few the past few months he has been going next door and putting the cat charm on my neighbor , she is a older lady so she has been feeding him for a while , I guess when he could not get us up at 6 or 630 to let him in he decide to go next door and he has been hooked ever since. So when we cant find him we know where to look. Oh and when he comes in to eat he meows and crys for us to open the laduary room door and pick him up and put him on the deep freeze(thats where he eats) .Crazy Cat he is pretty much a lazy bum here is some pic

Thunder My dog can not stand when I mop or run the vacuam, he barks and chases it and bites at it He even likes hot sauce and chips , I decided to give him a small taste and the dog ate it , but he made a funny face curled up his lips but came back for more. He even sleeps on top of his dog house, that is a site to see i will try to get a camera shot of that next time Oh i almost forget everytime I spray febreeze or any kind of air freshner he goes crazy drops on the floor and turns on his back and rubs the floor and if i break out the dog perfume for him he goes running and trys to hide- he hate it and than rubs it off on the carpert
