I wouldn't say they stink no. They have their own distinct smell, but it's pretty faint, and I like it... ^^

I think dogs are different. Wet dog smell can be horrible and very overpowering.

I'm pretty sure your dog only smells funky when her skin is greasy though. If that happens, just put her -you're talking about Nina right?- in the shower and wash her with baby shampoo. Don't forget to clean her nails too. If she is anything like my cats, her nails will have a thick dark layer of grease on them. You can scratch it away -beware the heavy cheese smell while doing so- or soak her paws in soapy water for a few minutes to remove it more easily...

If she still smells bad right after a bath, check her anal glands. Sometimes they get clogged which can cause infections and produce a very foul smell. If that's the case, simply empty them...

Luckily she doesn't need her glands emptied and her nails are fine, I'm guessing the nails thing is from using a litter box. I planned on taking her in the shower with me today to get her all fresh. She's always super crazy hyper after she gets washed so it's hilarious.

Retractable nails more likely... :wink:

This is their first time having a banana. The third Ghost was camera shy, but enjoyed it the most. He had his entire face shoved in the side of the banana. The female always seems to lay down when she eats. O.o

I think I lost the spider that's been hanging out in my driver side mirror for the past month. Every few days when I went somewhere there was a new web or I saw it hanging out. I think that's the same messed up web from Wednesday. :(

To be a bit more specific, it's called a Ghost Mantis (Phyllocrania paradoxa)

Her fur is finally starting to grow back after the summer haircut.

I've got two. Bogg the dog, who I adopted about two months ago. He's six, and appears to be a german shepherd mix of some kind, even though he's only about knee height.

And Mushi, the crested gecko. I've had her for a little over a year now.

Looks like some kind of terrier to me, would explain the size.

Someone seems to admire my Sega collection.

Ripley just got back from a walk and plopped down with a thud as soon as she made it up the stairs, panting rapidly.
