Sounds like turtles. Here are some of mine and

how they spend Fridays, when I am working at home.

Well now I'm not sure. They were little and swam in the water, but didn't stay under for too long. Mom likes them, we have a pond in our backyard and they made it their home. She even gave them names...Leonardo and Donatello. I wish I could play with them, but they keep running away from me!

 We LOVE Turtles!! Muma picked one up out of the street so it didn't get hit and it did pee pee on her!!

A turtle or a tortoise? Turtles are usually near water, have flipper-like feet, and flatter shells. Tortoises are land animals, with high dome shells & back feet look like elephant's feet!  We have 2 torties and 8 turtles, here!! tina
