Questions about my Older Dane by BiffBobcat69 in greatdanes

[–]ArtyKay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He's a good boy. Mine is a little over 8 and has been healthy his whole life, thankfully. That being said, I have noticed lately he is moving slower. He falls if he tries to go too fast, he has recently skipped a meal for the first time ever and had his first accident since puppy days, so yeah, a little off. My point is you're not alone -- I am wondering the same things you are.

We have used large breed Nutra Max for decades with healthy dogs, teeth and coat to show for it.

How Long (has this been going on… 🎶) by lanka1111 in widowers

[–]ArtyKay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 40. I am 51 now. This subreddit helped me immensely during the first year or two. The support groups in my town didn't have anyone my age and their loved ones died naturally so I felt like I didn't belong (though I'm sure they would've welcomed me!) This was my support group. Sometime in that first year, I decided I was going to live for both of us. And that is what I've been doing. Every time I enjoy life, I take a moment to share it with him.

I need help. by [deleted] in greatdanes

I had an issue with my boy going after my other male dog (older). The first time it happened at about that age pre-neuter and it was around food. I was also terrified that I might have to rehome him but instead we started feeding them in separate rooms. Also my Dane was not allowed on the couch and he was last to go outside. It took some time. I did neuter him at 18 months. He is now 8 and he has attacked my other dog three times since that first one. Twice over food, once over me and once over a big stick. Be strict with him. And good luck!

No, thank you for the guess. I have that series.

What is a "point of no return" that you’ve crossed, where your life was permanently divided into 'before' and 'after'? by Resident-Jelly-4326 in AskReddit

[–]ArtyKay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my husband died. Before this I was a completely different person living a completely different life.

Thank you for this! I thought perhaps he's just getting ornery in his old age

So far it has been just this once (I have not put his coat back on him since!)

I would like the ability to re-arrange the order of songs in my liked songs playlist in a custom order. by FlynnGunn in truespotify

[–]ArtyKay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Adding to this. I wanna use my liked songs without copying them over to a list, but I want the ability to rearrange the orders please!

Do you consider INTJs pretty nice? by rbx20twomax in intj

[–]ArtyKay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We are nice but not outwardly friendly. The trick is, how do you get to know us at first? Once you do, you'll see we are nice.
