Dogs and other pets that aren’t cats

[doug rr]

as I mentioned in another thread our guy turns 15 today...he's deaf and half blind but still gets around pretty well...just took him out for his 5 minute walk..he doesn't like to walk much anymore..anyway, he came back into the house and shit on the kitchen floor..thats a first

Haven't had to deal with that yet.

My dog has been falling down a lot.
he had a pretty bad wipeout this morning trying to jump on a curb but I don't think he injured himself. His back legs are barely working these days. Pretty sure he's nearly deaf too. I seem to surprise him when I come home.

my dog just let out the nastiest wet-sounding burp. i thought she vomited, it was so gross.

or did she burp and vomit a little in her mouth and then swallow?

thanks. i've been sleeping well over the last week. i go to bed at the same time every night, and wake up at the same time every morning. i think it's helping.

my dog is sleeping by my feet now. i think the wet burp made her sleepy.

Nice! We have a spoodle and he is both a total dick and totally great.

it sounds like you have a pet jerry

I have a schnoodle! There is quite a bit of variance from dog to dog. Some can be barky, but they are very smart and trainable. Have to keep them busy and active.

doodle breeds are pretty great.

We have a straight-up miniature poodle. Absolute sweetest dog I’ve ever seen in my life. Never thought I’d like poodles but she has won my heart for sure.

Also could’ve vomited then immediately lapped it back up.

Nice.

You and me both!

our dog has been licking her paws to the point where they're red and raw. we thought it might've been allergies so we gave her some benadryl the last couple of days, but it didn't help as much. took her to the vet yesterday, and they prescribed something similar to benadryl and told us to put the cone of shame (our words) on her if we catch her going to town on her paws.

she's had it on all day. as soon as we put it on she'll stand still and stare in one direction for almost half an hour before succumbing to it, and either lying down or walking over to one of us, sitting and looking up at us as if to plea for removal of the cone.

One of our family dogs did this same thing and had to go through the cone treatment too

Been thinking of getting some sort of pet at some point. Something really low maintenance and could survive if I went out of town for a week. Don’t know what falls in that category. Maybe a rock.

[doug rr]

maybe a cobra or coral snake?

Goddamn! Do NOT do this
