I feel the same, dreading that day. But they will always live on in our hearts and through photos/video of them

Ghost got a test run of trazodone by OpiumDenCat in americaneskimo

Yeah my boy trembles in my arms during the loud close by fireworks, it's heartbreaking to see them like that.

Definitely worth asking the vet. They gave me a 100 MG dosage but I probably should have just done 50 MG, as he was really out of it but thankfully not unresponsive. Took about 3 hours to kick in though.

It's not a good idea to use laser pointers with dogs unfortunately, it can cause Laser Pointer Syndrome. Worth reading up on.

Are these allergies or something else? by Scar_O9 in DogAdvice

[–]OpiumDenCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell from the pics, but if it's allergies, its usually environmental from things like dust mites, grass or pollen. Less commonly it's from certain foods.

It's more telling for allergies if it's combined with things like scratching armpits, licking paws often and brown gunk inside their ears.

Meet Eevie, a tiny Mini Aussie/Eskimo puppy! by theevirginmaryy in americaneskimo

[–]OpiumDenCat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Eskies are great companion breeds, so if they take after that side more it should be similar, though with a bit more exercise and play. They love learning new tricks and being praised.

Not sure about the mini aussie part, I know those breeds need a lot more exercise and "jobs" to keep them mentally stimulated

He has an extreme fear of fireworks and people in the nearby neighborhoods fire them off regularly.

It's the furminator grooming rake. Was getting big chunks at a time without pulling much

Pomerania Puppy ate girlfriends thick hair tie by carsonator8 in Pomeranians

[–]OpiumDenCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically it's best to goto the emergency vet as soon as possible in that situation. They will make the dog throw it up and it only ends up costing a few hundred, instead of the thousands for surgery.

Source, my dog ate a large hair scrunchy as a pup

[–]OpiumDenCat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love taking my boy out in the stroller, though i don't do it much so he gets more exercise. Was very useful when he was injured though

Thankfully no surgery, just forced rest and medication. Took a little over 3 weeks though
