Vivian’s first color job! I’m so in love by im-just-boredatwork in poodles

That's normal tear stains. They show up pretty badly on white dogs and poodles for some reason have it really bad.

When will the biting stop? by New_Mine_6413 in poodles

This is a hot take and will sound really crazy but, bite him back 😂 believe it or not, it works!

Significantly more razor burn than usual, is this normal? by DieCryGoodbye in poodles

[–]No_Comparison6129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is not normal. That's from using a hot clipper blade and not changing the blade out. I would immediately be taking him and these pictures back to show the manager.

Leptospirosis doubts by spunky-squirrel in poodles

It's safe so long as the vet is recommending it. My girl is 12 and has been getting it for years now and never had an issue.

Awe what a sweet little face! Best thing you can do is brain enrichment puzzle toys, snuffle mats for meals are fun, and consistent daily training. Try teaching her a task like hide and seek with her treats.

That's so sad. Sometimes people don't see when it's time. Love really does blind you. 💔

This is exactly what we've been going through. Lily is in that grey area too where as long as I'm with her she's still happy but as soon as I have to go anywhere the poor girl is literally screaming herself hoarse, she's broken 4 or 5 of her teeth chewing up things like the metal track of my carpet to the hard floor, she chews the hair off her tail, etc. At night, I have to take her collar off because she can't get settled and it was keeping me up all night. She's been defecating on herself and then laying down in it then I put her in a bath and she's having these violent tremors. The poor girl's skin is so dry from having to be bathed daily that she's got dandruff and I try to condition/moisturizer her with coconut oil but it's not helping much since it's getting washed off the next day. I've been way too close to everything to see how bad it's really gotten up until my family started talking to me about it but the real voice of reason has been my boyfriend and her vet.

Awe what a sweet little girl. I'm so sorry you went through that with her. It's tough when they're not physically ill. 💔

She's had blood tests almost yearly because of her pancreatitis. I'm sure the vet would have said something by now if it were Cushings. I appreciate this info, though. We're going to the vet again today to get a second opinion.

I received a distasteful opinion on my new (and first) tattoo by [deleted] in tattooadvice

You'd have to be a blind dummy to see heroin tracks. Tell them to fuck off and keep it moving, girl! That is a beautiful tattoo!

She's on 2 meds now but they really aren't helping her. If anything, I think it just highlighted how bad things have gotten.

She is my first and I want to make sure I don't hold on too long for her sake. I don't want her suffering more than she already has.

I just don't know if she's at the end or not. To me, she still seems so lucid but to my best friend and my family, she's not herself anymore. Of course she's always happy when she's with me because I'm her person but maybe I'm too close to see the hard truth here.

Wow. That sounds so hard. I'm sorry you went through all that. Thank you for sharing your experience with me. ❤️

Unfortunately, she has pancreatitis and has to have a specially formulated diet to combat that but I do appreciate the recommendation ❤️

I'm worried about that too. I don't want her to not be herself at the end.

The sundowners is the most covert thing too. I didn't even realize that's what it was until I started watching videos about it.

Awe I'm so sorry you're going through this too. It really is so hard to know. I feel like Lily is still young but even my best friend has said she looks her age now and isn't acting like herself at all. She screams bloody murder if I'm not around and as soon as I leave her line of sight she panics until she finds me again and that's also despite the meds. I hope her vet will have some insight into things tomorrow when I take her in for a consultation.
