    Has anyone had to become a morning person for your pup?

    @mizmelzywi Yep! Went from being a night owl up til 4am and now I’m zonked by 9 or 10pm and we get up at 5 for pee break. I have to pee, they have to pee. But they’ve learned with routine that after that, we either go back to bed for an hour or two (if I don’t have to get ready for work) or just...

    I’m sick and puppy won’t f* off

    @conradrocks Nope! A lady with a little boy voice lmao my pup actually only recalls when I use my angry firm voice. I can’t talk nice to her or she doesn’t listen. So to other people it sounds like I’m about to beat some puppy ass but really I’m just using the only voice she responds to.

    I’m sick and puppy won’t f* off

    @conradrocks I use my big angry scary voice and everyone slinks off to a corner and sulks!! I save it for important times... otherwise yeah puppy has no idea what’s going on when I’m normally yelling and normally doesn’t care 😂 We opted out of the crate awhile ago, she sees everyone else out...

    I’m sick and puppy won’t f* off

    I got my second covid vaccine yesterday and I feel like I was hit by a dump truck. I have NO energy and my everything hurts. I called off work. This is the first time since I adopted her in August that I have been “sick” enough to knock me down. A few major headaches or stomach woes here and...

    Need advice. Possibly losing my girls front leg

    @samoisus Yeah it’s probably not going to heal at all with the wound open like that and no attempt at closure. They may be hoping to reduce swelling before surgery - we do that with human fractures before casts etc, wait a few days for swelling to resolve. But I know nothing about animal...

    Need advice. Possibly losing my girls front leg

    @samoisus Thank you for that - so far everything sounds good and I have hope for you guys! I’m in human medicine and a cracked scapula is not something we see hardly ever at all. Since they didn’t jump straight to surgery there’s a chance she’ll be able to remain whole I think? I bet she’s on a...

    Need advice. Possibly losing my girls front leg

    @samoisus I just read you’re in Ohio - us too. Not sure where I’m Ohio but we go to Medvet in Worthington a lot. We’ve had multiple dogs with ACL repairs there, luxating patella, cancer surgery, and also some internal med visits for a diabetic cat. There’s also the OSU veterinary hospital as well.

    Need advice. Possibly losing my girls front leg

    @samoisus He had it before actually - no idea what happened but he was found in a ditch with wire wrapped around his leg, it was rotting and he was septic and severely sick. We’ve had surgeries on our other dogs and it was all just crate rest for 6-8 weeks and slow walks and physical...

    Need advice. Possibly losing my girls front leg

    @samoisus We have a rear leg amputee. There’s pros and cons to having front vs rear (as if you can choose). With front leg you have to be careful about jumping down off couches or stairs because dogs hold most their body weight on their front legs. But all their running power and up stairs comes...
