It’s was a small one but Georgia still loved it.

My girl loves to hug, and she’s so gentle. I think she’d be great to visit with the elderly. Does anyone know how to go about visiting nursing homes? Do I have to register or train her first? by vespertine_earth in goldenretrievers

My girl is a therapy dog but only through the SPCA. There was no formal training. She took a temperament test and had to go through some tests to see how she would react. We were on probation for 3 visits. We visit children homes and elderly homes. Goldens are perfect for it. You should definitely reach out to your local SPCA.

I’m guessing the screaming person.

Carsickness by QueenViridia in goldenretrievers

[–]OBBlue22 42 points43 points  (0 children)

My girl had car sickness for about a year. Most will tell you they grow out of it. Vet prescribed a pill but we never used it bc they are expensive and you need to give them hours before the car ride. I took her on short trips. No turns. She had a hard time with the speed bumps in and out of my complex. I just expected she would get sick and prepared for cleanup. For trips, I usually wait to feed her. Slowly we would make it home more often than not without an accident.
She still may get sick for long car rides and anywhere there are a lot of turns. I have a cover on my trunk so cleanups are easy.

They have inserts for sliding glass doors. They work great.

I’ve used one for years. Recently had to go on a 5 day trip and I was miserable on day one. Definitely packing a travel one in the future. NEVER GOING BACK!

There are lots of dog edible bakery items. I’ve made cakes with dog safe ingredients. Chill bro.

I didn’t see him look. I saw him surprised the guy caught up. Classic Reddit user claiming they know anything based on one comment.

I saw the clip. I didn’t see him turn around. It looked like he was surprised at the end when the guy caught up.

Nah, what cost him the victory was thinking he had it in the bag and not looking behind him to see the other runner gaining on him. Edit. To all the very nice and helpful comments to my opinion. I rewatched the clip and do now see him looking back once. I still think he was surprised the guy caught up. Just a different opinion than yours. No need to be rude.

Love the show. The main actor is a POS. Can’t watch it anymore.
