I had a water turtle once. It was hilarious. We'd feed him fish, and after a while he got so lazy that he'd just take a bite out of one if it happened to swim by. You would be amazed how long a fish can live with a bite taken out!
Turtle died though.

I don't have any pets. If you're gonna get a dog, make sure you adopt one from the humane society or a shelter. Then take em to the beach!!
