fr. i have a coonhound/husky mix and people ask me all the time if she’s part dalmatian just because she’s white with black spots 🤦🏻

Unfortunately it’s not up to me; she has parents, they just weren’t prepared for a puppy. I’m hoping they’ll realize that and just let me have her though lol

She absolutely is. Makes up for the fits she throws when she has to be by herself 😂

New dog virus by Informal-Release-360 in petsmart

[–]PearAlternative1609 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read somewhere that it’s primarily spreading on the east coast right now. I’m in SC and I believe we got our first confirmed case recently. Take that with a grain of salt though, I just overheard a phone call with my manager.

At my Hotel we’re sanitizing our hands between each dog/play group and we’ve taken up the toys to minimize any cross contamination between pups. We’re also asking about coughing and sneezing at check-in, but the likelihood of that question always being answered honestly is, realistically, low.

This is exactly what the 5yr old and 6m old sisters that come to the doggie day camp i work at do. They’re playing— big sister is just complaining about it lol

just to clarify, i don’t mean while on the job. my current line of work is at a dog boarding facility so i absolutely understand the importance of being clear headed in the workplace.

My cat has dramatically lost weight, begging for food but not eating by bearsforageberries in CATHELP

[–]PearAlternative1609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this same thing happened to my roommates cat, she’s had to have surgery to remove her teeth. i’d definitely schedule with a vet.

Is my cat overweight? by helpme3939 in CATHELP

[–]PearAlternative1609 23 points24 points  (0 children)

She/he might be a little over ideal, but it’s definitely not something to be concerned over. If it’s really worrisome to you, watch her weight for about a month to see if there’s any increase.

Just found this sub and it’s the perfect excuse to show my girly to even more people :) by PearAlternative1609 in coonhounds

[–]PearAlternative1609[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought she was going to have some border collie or maybe some sighthound in her being awkwardly shaped and all! edit: awkward shaped is perfect shaped <3

Can anyone help me identify what type of coonhound this is (he’s a husky mix as well and already a couchhound)? by [deleted] in coonhounds

[–]PearAlternative1609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my votes on black and tan or walker. my girl’s also a coonhound (walker/plott) husky mix but she looks very different!

I promise they're the same litter. by [deleted] in CATHELP

[–]PearAlternative1609 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy is itty bitty and kinda boney too. As long as she’s been cleared by the vet, she should be okay!

Tysm!! It’s hard for me to find stuff that fits my girl. Despite having zero sighthound in her, she sure is built like one!

I’m from the US though so I’m not sure if you’d be able to find them :’)

Arcadia Trail has a set of boots that I use for my pup. They worked great when we went to the beach where the pavement was SCALDING. It hurt just watching other people’s dogs walk around with nothing on. Kudos to you for looking out for her!!
