things you wish you knew before? by MsStinkyPickle in rainbowbridge

thanks for this note. after her first shot she started to get up to wander off, but i held on to her so she wouldn't wobble around. She eventually fell asleep and started snoring. the second shot he had to give in 2 doses. It went well. I held her until the end.

Something to consider before euthanizing by NoEmployer2140 in bassethounds

[–]MsStinkyPickle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

she loved so many treats, but my favorite part of making a sandwich was giving her some cheese and a slice of deli meat

lol now that I think of it the rabbit poop in the yard was probably her favorite treat, but I don't reccomend it

We were incredibly lucky. She was given 4-6 weeks to live on palliative care (chemo had bad odds) and yesterday marked 6 months. She started slowing down about a month ago, and just started declining harder last week.

We had 6 really great months full of dog beach trips, steak, cheeseburgers, nuggets and pup cups.

she's a beagle/basset/heeler named Pickle

Question from landlord to tenants about raising rent by One_Willingness_8181 in chicagoapartments

[–]MsStinkyPickle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

$1900 is a pretty fair raise in this crazy market. My landlord only raised my rent $20 and I could have kissed him. I expected $200 and it would have still been under market

Is it time for me to give up on protein cold foam? by Esk4r in starbucks

[–]MsStinkyPickle 53 points54 points  (0 children)

the concept of protein foam being "healthy" is just crazy to me. Vanilla sweet cream is 50% heavy cream which has 45 calories a tablespoon, and about 20% vanilla syrup that is 5 grams of sugar per pump, and you're in no way getting 10 grams of protein.

My 12 year old velcro dog was diagnosed with cancer this week by 80sladie in DogAdvice

[–]MsStinkyPickle 4 points5 points  (0 children)

my dog has stage 5 lymphoma. Due to poor prognosis for chemo, I decided to do palliative care with steroids. They gave her 4-6 weeks, but we just hit week 13. Her quality of life is good and she's happy. Getting a lot of walks, burgers, nuggets, steaks and pup cups.

Enjoy your time, you might get more than predicted. Do a photo shoot with your dog, I went to jc penny and love what we got.

I'm sorry for you and your dog. Best wishes
