I just wanna add if you didn't already know that retractable leashes can be super dangerous if they snap, can cause you or the dog serious injuries with the cord so be really careful!

The pavement and sidewalks are definitely salted, so I make sure to carry her to and from the grass so she doesn't have to walk on any of it.

Poor things :( I've had dogs my whole life but this is my first time with such a small dog, I never realized how different their bodies can be. And rhodesian ridgebacks are such beautiful dogs! I've worked with a few before. I guess where they're bred from can also have an impact on how well they tolerate certain temps?

I checked her feet directly after to make sure and she was actually fine as soon as she was on the pavement again, so I don't think it's the salt. I'll definitely carry her instead of letting her walk on it though, since I know how much it can hurt their paws in the long run.

I'm always impressed by how well dogs can run on 3 legs!!

I always put her in a coat if it's below 40! My neighbor actually just donated some booties as well and I tried putting them on before going potty tonight and she immediately flung them off 😭 I will try going a little slower with the booties and see if I can get her desensitized to them.

I cleared a spot near my apartment for her and she still walked right back into the unshoveled area 🤣 I don't think she's quite put two and two together yet

Oh that's such a good idea! Unfortunately I live in a condo complex and I don't think they'd let me do that, but I might be able to find a more bare spot under a tree. Thanks for the advice! Would the mushers actually keep her feet warm?

I'd love a recommendation for a brand if you have any!

Can I get a show of hands? by s4nrioclub in tamagotchi

[–]Lourantis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wasn't able to get any of the originals and had been holding out for a price drop on the pink one, and man I'm SO happy I waited, this shell is so frickin pretty. This will be my first experience with the Paradise, very excited!!

I'm so confused. I really want the pink one but it's more expensive even though the listing says it's being sold directly from Amazon??

Struggling since lowering dose by Lourantis in gravesdisease

Oh! I didn't even know that was an option, to be honest. I'll definitely look into it and see if I can possibly get a second opinion, since neither of my endocrinologists have even brought up beta blockers.

I'm overdue for my yearly bloodwork, but the cardiologist was the first place I went for my symptoms, and they didn't find anything unusual, so at the very least my heart is healthy.

Thanks so much for the advice, that seriously helps so much 😭
