Username:Stardog765 Prefix:SD Petz Version:4 & 5 Do you have a website?:Not Yet What brought you to Duke's Group?:My friend just introduced me to Petz last weekend and I couldn't believe I had never heard of it before. Not sure how it went under my radar for so long. I joined Duke's Group because I had read how you focus on natural breeding and that is what I want to learn and how I want to learn to play the game so it was a no brainer. I would like to learn to bread Border Collies. I love herding dogs as I am kind of a farming nerd, always have been coming from the Midwest, US. I look forward to getting to know everyone here.
Do you have any real life petz? (Feel free to show pics!): Currently and sadly not at the moment. Had a Retriever mix dog who was part of the family for 16 years and had to have her put down in 2022, and an old Tabby Cat that was my pal for also 16 years who passed last year in 2023. Not ready to even think about replacing them so it was a perfect time for me to find this game.
Anything else you'd like to tell us about yourself?:I am just a regular guy in my early 50s from the Midwest US. Gaming nerd since I was old enough to peck on a keyboard and proud Father of one wonderful son. I love photography and all forms of art, music and well computer gaming. Pics of your favorite petz and/or petz you hope to participate with here: None at the moment
Thank you for allowing me to join here.

Hi! I recognize you from the discord! Welcome to Duke's Group :) Your story resonates with me as well-- I actually got Petz because I can't have any irl pets/animals in my current living situation and so I have my virtual petz pals ehehe
Were you able to get the game working? Border collies aren't in the original 10, but you can download them from websites and put the breedfiles into your game like free DLC that the community created!
But I'm curious if you like any of the original 10 breeds from the Adoption Center. Let me know if you need/ want help! I'll be happy to assist!

Thor, thank you and I do understand your situation. Its great to have Petz as an option for sure. I was able to get everything running well on version 4 and 5 but have been focusing on playing Petz4 for now. Just really been messing around a little using PetzA to cheat on stuff just to make sure everything works at this point. I do know the Border Collies are not original to the game and found the download for CKs Border Collies and have them in my game to at least adopt, I have not attempted to breed them yet. As for the original animals I like the cats and the dog breeds I need to look at seen what ones are vanilla to the game to pick which one I would be interested in breeding. That sounds like a good thing for me to do today while I am still on vacation Thank you for the warm welcome and reply I will let you know if I have any problems or specific questions. I most certainly will at some point.

Hello and welcome! It sounds like Petz found you right when you needed it the most. CK Border Collies are so cute, I used to have a bunch of them! I lost most of my petz prior to 2014 due to switching computers so I don't really have any of them anymore, but they are still very iconic to me.
