  2. Mom didn't have a pet that was all her own until Barkley when she was forth (mumble mumble). Working as a pilot meant having to board a dog constantly and she didn't want to do that.

  5. My Mum had a white rabbit called Oncas when she was 9. Then she got Poncas and they had all little Woncas's. She got her first, very own, dog when she was 10. He was a Dalmatian and she called him Mike. She trained him herself and she also showed him when she turned 12. He was a great dog. Dad didn't have any pets until he met Mum so he was ancient when he got his first share dog.
