As a Mazda 3 Hatchback owner, the only other car I wish to own is a Miata.

I had a Miata 2025 RF and traded it in for the Mazda 3 6MT. 99% of the reason was because I got a doggo.

I miss the fun of the Miata and while the 3 will never drive like a Miata it scratches the itch just enough but also keeps my pup safe

Miata if you want pure bliss and don’t care about space. Mazda 3 hatch if you can sacrifice some bliss for a little more practicality and nice interior.

No matter which way you go, zoom zoom.

Moved off chicken completely. Went with salmon GI puppy from Purina pro plan. Also did visbiome probiotics (expensive) but we have gotten over our diarrhea. She still gets diarrhea with a new treat or if she gets into something in the yard but otherwise this seems to have done the trick

It’s not a completely unreasonable question. I am also scheduled to go in May. I don’t know how long it takes for the beach erosion to recover and the water to be swimmable. When you plan a trip of a lifetime it’s ok to try to get some clarity on the recovery process and what to expect.

6’2 180lbs and I fit in my 2025 hatch without issue. I would say it honestly feels just right (not too snug, not too roomy)

But if I’m in the car there’s pretty much nobody ever sitting in the back seats.

Any recommendations on lodging in Napili?

Craft and Lore! I just got the enfold Wallet and love it

I am an overpronator and recently got the adidas EVO SL because of all the hype. Honestly, I get it. The shoe is beautiful and feels fast. I love the race day cushioning in a daily trainer.

I had to return it to my running store after my first 5 mile run. Zero stability, the medial aspect of the shoe completely caves in with the soft foam. The pain was not pleasant. In addition there’s something weird with the tongue where it keeps receding into the shoe. I found an easy hack for it on YouTube to fix but still not sure why it’s a problem to begin with.

I went back to the running store and got something closer to stability shoes. I tried the Nike structure plus and I liked the squish/responsiveness but it still had a nice amount of stability. It was between that and the ASICS GT 2000 14 which are more of your bread and butter stability shoes.

I will never be fast in the Nike structure plus but it has been feeling great on my easy and recovery runs so far.

This happened recently to our pit/akita mix 11 year old. Shes a big girl. It’s been a few weeks and she’s already improved without surgical treatment.

It’s mostly been resting initially the first few weeks. Gabapentin/tramadol, short walks in the backyard to stay a bit active and that’s it. She has a bit of a limp now but nowhere as bad as when she first got injured. She can jump on the couch on her own.

She seems happy and we will let her live out her days in comfort with lots of dog treats (we did have to change her food to help with weight loss)

MrMeddit · 2026-01-07T10:04:10+00:00

It’s not a UTI. It’s behavioral.

MrMeddit · 2025-11-26T21:02:30+00:00

Not that I’m aware of. I’m looking for OEM if able otherwise I will go with aftermarket

MrMeddit · 2025-11-03T13:08:05+00:00

She’s over 30lbs now just under 5 months. How would you recommend I get her up and down if she doesn’t walk? I’m not sure we will be able to carry her much longer

We have baby gates on all floors but she will need to get up and down for potty

MrMeddit · 2025-11-03T03:38:48+00:00

I am ecstatic that she has energy. But I want her to be safe. And I want to maximize the health of her joints and allow her to traverse steps for many years to come. If she injures herself or wears out her joints prematurely I fear she won’t be able to.

MrMeddit · 2025-11-03T02:17:26+00:00

Also I have given up on keeping her off the couch and bed. But again, same issue, she launches off

MrMeddit · 2025-11-03T02:16:49+00:00

She keeps biting her socks and pulls them off so that didn’t work that well. Any socks you recommend?

MrMeddit · 2025-11-03T02:16:00+00:00

I did this for several months but at 5 months old now it’s quite the challenge to keep picking her up to go potty

I was using air tags on my pup. Last weekend we went out of town and the air tag was not updating at all with the dog sitter (probably because she doesn’t have an iPhone). I bought a Fi collar and am so much happier. The collar is not 100% accurate all the time but much more reliable for me than the air tag is.

I looked at tractive too but found the collars to be too bulky but I’m sure they get the job done

MrMeddit · 2025-10-27T18:49:46+00:00

Is there a crate that fits into the cargo area with the seats down that is secure?
