Hello everyone!
My name is Allison and I have decided to own a tortoise once again!~ My first tortoise was a pair of california desert tortoises and their names were Clover and Daisy. We (my family and I) kept them until I was about 10 years old. Sadly, our pet dogs dug under the enclosure and killed them. We'd always have Clover and Daisy in our memories and treasured and loved pets. Now, ten years later I have decided to get a pet tortoise.
I've decided on the sulcata tortoise!~ Yes ,they grow very big @_@ , but I do have a huge yard and we don't have dogs anymore. so that is taken care of !
It's been a while since I've owned one and I have questions about torts and bonding!~ Do they bond with their owners? Can they recognize their owner?
