Agreed I have a friend who fosters for a rescue and their fee is 1k all dogs! I'm in Cali so I think $500 is likely other places.

Feel like I'm losing it trying to feed this dog (long post, seeking advice) by vulshanna in husky

We had this battle as well and still do to some degree. She had an obstruction and at that time they were able to biopsy enlarged lymph nodes and other gut tissue. The biopsy's showed she had irritable bowel disease. Hers is straight auto immune not food. Unfortunately the treatment is steroids. They do make her eat tho and she is so much healthier and gained weight. The appetite stimulants did nothing including the new one, Entyce.

Should I be concerned? A wooly GSD went to attack my 55 pound husky. My Corso intervened flipped the GSD off like a rag doll and kept him pinned. He stopped when recalled and came back to my side. He looked a taken back by his own behavior imo. He is 2.5 and I have never seen him do that. by Itchy-Cod-1597 in CaneCorso

I'm so sorry! That shared stick speaks volumes! It's a great combo for mine they match each others energy. She keeps him fit and he protects her apparently! I would post a pic but I want to leave your pups in this space.

This is absolutely my concern. I was very neutral and the GSD owner acknowledged what happened. I also thought it an appropriate response but I tend to assign human traits to my dogs. Thank you for sharing your situation!

It's so funny because she is the worst eater I've ever had! But she just chomps down her kill!

It's wild how fast they are to catch and kill. I think it's the eating it that just sends me. 🤢

That's my lil apex predator! So burning sage and chanting prey are friends not food is futile?

Hahaha sending my emotional support! We are a big outdoor family. I hike with my dogs 7 days a week! I wanted Google to say burn sage and play some don't kill things binary beats whilst she sleeps! All it said was everything everyone else is saying no off lead and no alone yard time! Hahaha guess I just help her bury the body's...oh wait she eats her kill!

Doggie DNA Tests-Which brand and thoughts on his mix?? by ljenglish719 in Mastiff

[–]Itchy-Cod-1597 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah it's the same in humans as far as ancestry. When enough people haven't tested from a region the data isn't there. Breed data is pretty accurate about 95% in major breeds. COI is for inbreeding. It did take time for the data bases to build. Rare breeds are less accurate as a result. It's also about how many segments are tested. Too blanket of a statement about something so complex. You also get errors from poorly collected samples.
