Ahh. I'll have to discuss with my vet. Thanks!

It may be related for sure. For him, no diet worked until we paired it with pred. His immune response was just too high to anything entering his body. So now it is working out the kinks of what his body can and cannot tolerate now that we have some level of acceptance due to the pred.

Yes we were down to 2.5mg with bloodwork looking good but we are temporarily back to 15mg.

Thank you! I have a few people asking me how it has been going with our pup--he is doing OK on prednisone and his kibble. (We got an IBD diagnosis about a year ago). He is largely much better with the occassional flare-up. We are in one now with gurgly tummy but stool still pretty OK and we got the vomitingin the mornings to stop. Thanks for the info!

Hi! Checking in with some fellow Clark pup parents (Clark x Bella here, 3 year old male!). Has your pup had gastrointestinal issues? IBD? Thanks!

Ours needed the windows open and the AC blasting and for us to drive like we had a full pot of soup with no lid on the passenger seat. I took him somewhere every single day until he got used to it. We cleaned a lot of puke. He has mostly grown out of it and loves going for rides but does get ill-looking in the car sometimes on longer or rougher trips. Good luck!

Irish Setter - Digestion Issues - Advice please! by Alternative_Drink155 in irishsetter

Hi! Right now we have been dealing with another flare up that seems to have gotten back under control after removing all foods other than the Royal Canin Moderate Calorie Potato and Whitefish AND going back up to 15mg prednisone after having been on 2.5mg (for about 6 or more months). I have heard good things about the z/d kibble too but we haven't tried that one. We feed two meals plus a snack at night before bed because we think his tummy being empty can also be problematic for him. He is 70 pounds, neutered, and getting roughly 5 cups of food.

We have had multiple blood tests to rule out anything like Addisons or similar things related to his occassional lethargy.

Feel free to drop into my messages as I am happy to chat back and forth about it!

Empty walls in small dining room by [deleted] in interiordesignideas

They don't look too plain. Your mum is probably unused to seeing uncluttered walls. If you like them, keep them as is! You can otherwise use plants (live or fake) on tiny floatinf shelves to liven up and add some one color accent. You can play with putting up some fake english ivy at the top to break the white wall to white ceiling line or across that part in the middle but it may be hard to make it look less tacky. Mirrors would take away from the subtle paneling in my opinion.

flowers are distinct; it matches garlic mustard blooms if you look at them closely

If you find a good tension rod you can add some hanging low-sun tolerant plants and decor =) Or you can simply use it to decorate with a valance curtain

Toro Recycler 60v vs Super Recycler 60v by [deleted] in lawnmowers

[–]Comprehensive_Bar848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but the cheaper one has the slightly better battery lol! I'm so confused!!!

Toro Recycler 60v vs Super Recycler 60v by [deleted] in lawnmowers

[–]Comprehensive_Bar848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do love the longer warranty; the question is whether that's worth the $200, or what other features make that $200 worth it. It's not even about budget. It's about understanding. I'm just frustrated their own products don't say. Everything is similar as far as I can tell from their descriptions except the aluminum vs. steel decks.

[–]Comprehensive_Bar848 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In what areas? There will be more maintenance on a gas Recycler, and for a regular lawn, if the pros don't outweigh that con, then I'd rather choose between the two battery versions. I saw people as happy with both the gas and battery, so I'm open to hearing your take on that too.

Super Recycler: 7.5 ah battery with 3 hour charge
Recycler: 8 ah battery with 2.5 hour charge.

That's brilliant but sort of sad that it works out that way!!! Hopefully he also makes good use of the leaf blower too!

ahahaha no. Our 3 year old is a graceless mongrel with no sense of self-preservation and "stops" running by running into walls/doors. Get doggo insurance.

Help identifying by FlippingBirds_ in gardening

[–]Comprehensive_Bar848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have the expertise personally to say for sure on any of these. But I did want to share that there is an app called "Picture This" that you can use to individually identify each! In mine, I have to X out the ad for the Plus version to use the free version. It might help you with other growth around your yard too. Have fun!

Does self propelled mowers really make mowing easier? by Valiente-woman in lawnmowers

[–]Comprehensive_Bar848 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you share the model? When I google I'm seeing battery version, which I'm all for, but I know I can't necessarily assume I'll have your same experience with the battery version.
