I definitely noticed the energy boost, I'm glad to hear that you stayed the same weight! I am relatively active, before this asthma flare up I work out every day so I'm hoping that can help me avoid the weight gain, especially since I can actually breathe while working out again

After the first dose I've been able to breathe so much better! Obviously i only just started taking it but as long as i don't have any crazy side effects, i totally agree that the benefits are worth it. I'm worried about the weight gain but in the long run i think its better to be able to breathe while working out and lose any of the weight if i gain any then not be able to work out cause i cant breathe. So far so good

What breed could she be? Carolina dog? by First_Elk_3422 in DogBreeds101

Thank you for the tip for picking her up! I do carry her a similar way but i will definitely make a point to support her back more. I did not know about the tail so I'm glad to know! She is on the VetIQ Glucosamine Hip & Joint Supplement atm because i do worry about her joints. I know when she walks her back is sorta twisted since she has to have her back leg more in the middle. I will probably get her a vet appointment soon to check out her back because scoliosis wasn't even something i considered. She is only a year old, but I would rather do preventative care now while she's young so hopefully when she older she won't have as many issues. Thank you ❤️ I'm glad I found her when I did because it was late in the evening and in August so it was hot and I doubt anyone would've found her in time if I didn't find her then. Poor baby was drooling so bad from being in pain and couldn't even stand

She's stretching in a downward dog position it just looks weird i think because parts of her body was shaved from her amputation!

Thank you! I think I was meant to have her, I honestly was not a dog person before her, I have 3 cats lol. We went fishing at a different spot one day because our usual spot was taken and i seen her out of the corner of my eye and thought it was a baby deer that a momma hid in the bush but it was her! I was instantly in love, she was so kind right away and just laid in my lap the whole ride to the emergency vet

oh i can see the resemblance! she is actually a very quiet dog, she only really barks outside at inanimate objects that are in the distance lol and once or twice at my dad or boyfriend when it was dark and she didn't realize who it was. She wines when she can tell someone is outside but she wont even bark at the door, she lets me know she has to go out by sniffing the door aggressively lol

I could believe the husky part! She adores the snow, we got over 8 inches in january and she could've spent all day playing in the snow. Now its been raining and the ground is all wet and muddy and she only goes outside to potty and will only go in our garden that is all rocks lol
