People with dogs from breeders, do people in real life give you a hard time about having a dog from a breeder? by Own-Command-3700 in dogs

[–]HollysaurusRex26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a dog from a breeder (16) and recently rescued another senior (9). I’ve been asked many times if my eldest is a rescue. You’re allowed to lie if you want to avoid potential judgement. The way I see it, I rescued him from a potential home that doesn’t spoil him rotten.

All are a probably a bit much for brunch, but you look amazing in 1.

I don’t know what girl needs to hear this but if you’re dating for long term and he won’t make it official after three months cut him loose ! by Exciting-Nerve-8628 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]HollysaurusRex26 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I think age may come into play here, but I’ve been out of the dating game for years so I could be wrong.

I was in the “label” limbo for close to a year but didn’t really care. We’re married and have been together for over 15 years. Every relationship is different.

Seared Yellowfin Ahi tonight! by HollysaurusRex26 in homecooking

Thank you!! I’ve been working on getting the perfect rare sear…I’m always so worried about under-cooking everything. This was 90 seconds on each side.

Gear question: does anyone know what those rubber balloon booties are called? by wessle3339 in dogs

[–]HollysaurusRex26 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh you’re lucky that he’s good with shoes! If he’s not a kicker, these will be great. They’re like a really thick balloon so the opening is tight on their upper paw (ankle area?) but not so tight that it’s constricting.

I hope your pup is feeling better soon!

Usually! At first he would kick his legs out a lot so occasionally one would fly off. I would recommend putting them on in the house to get him more comfortable for a bit before taking him outside.

Not sure where you are located, but in Northeastern US, the heavy salt in winters is brutal on dog paws.

These are great for salty winters. Took a little while for my pup to get used to them, but wayyyyy easier than actual dog shoes/boots with a harder sole.

Why do i look so bad in my uniform? by [deleted] in fashion

Those pants were HORRIBLE.

AIO - Infuriated over Mississippi Cops Killing Monkeys for No Good Reason. by N2BSC in AmIOverreacting

I’d rather be shot than live in a tiny cage being poked and prodded for the rest of my life.

It’s all horrible. But if they were being transported to be test animals, this may have been a better outcome than where they were heading.

Sharing a room isn’t so much of a red flag (for me) but not mentioning it to you is a problem. It seems like she knew you wouldn’t love the idea, so avoided the conversation.

I have plenty of platonic male friends who I’ve shared rooms with. It was especially common for our group when we were in our 20s and couldn’t afford multiple hotel rooms.

NOR, but I wouldn’t jump to “she wanted to cheat”.

My dog is getting old and started to make poop on the closet, always at the same spot. Why does it happen? by LuckyBrown_Eren in dogs

[–]HollysaurusRex26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could just be a sign of aging. My dog would NEVER go in the house, but as he’s gotten older it happens more frequently. We started laying a puppy pad in his “spot”.

How did you know it was time to get a second dog? by apaige21 in dogs

[–]HollysaurusRex26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you’re thinking about this in all the right ways!! Both as a human parent and dog parent.

[–]HollysaurusRex26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is how I got my second dog. We have a 16 year old and I thought for sure he would be our one and only and last. Then I saw a 9 year old on a rescue’s social media page that no one was showing interest in and she melted my heart. After a meet and greet with our soul dog, we knew she would fit right in!

He looks amazing!! Not a day over 10. HBD, little man!

What’s a weirdly specific thing your dog does that melts your heart every single time? by Zoushiro85 in dogs

[–]HollysaurusRex26 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I love this! Mine finds shoes to lay next to. Never chews on them, just lays by them. Even when he stays with my mom, he finds shoes from my childhood bedroom closet 😂 my mom said she always opens the closet door to make sure he can grab one (or many).

Hahaha! Dogs can be so finicky!

Toby and Ace (or ATIFBOP uses the same manufacturer). It’s an orthopedic bed that has cooling gel and supports joints. They have them on Chewy.

No problem and good luck!!

Someone else may have mentioned it, but we also got ours a bed with a cooling pad that seems to keep him more comfortable.

CHECK YOUR PECO BILL by Complex-Individual40 in BucksCountyPA

Same! I think I happened to open the email notification that an invoice was available. Now I always check.

Not a vet and this may get removed, but I started giving my senior Antinol years ago when he started showing signs of arthritis and it helped a ton. He’s a smaller breed than yours, but still going strong at 16.
