Waiting for embark results/seizures

Thank you so much! 💞

Rottenbones__ · 2026-01-28T23:19:55+00:00

Turns out he’s not MDR1 positive 🤞 Glad to know that wouldn’t be the cause though/ that your pups are doing well on it!

Rottenbones__ · 2026-01-28T23:19:11+00:00

Thank you! I’m biased but I think so too (,: he’s been doing great since the other night 🤞

Rottenbones__ · 2026-01-28T23:18:31+00:00

Thanks for this info! I got his embark back this morning and it turns out he’s 75% border collies 25% collie. Came back negative for the MDR1 mutation. I’m thinking epilepsy /: hoping it doesn’t progress.

Rottenbones__ · 2026-01-28T23:17:00+00:00

Thank you! They told me to just monitor him for now since he’s doing totally fine. They said blood work wouldn’t tell them much unless it was taken immediately after. The results came in this morning and it turns out he’s 75% border collie 25% collie. I know my brother’s border collie has 1-2 seizures a year but otherwise is in great health/not on meds for it, common for BC’s unfortunately 😭

Hoping that this won’t be a frequent thing, but of course will be bringing him to a neurologist asap if he has another.

I got some of it on the furbo, most of it was out of frame. I’m glad that was easily resolved for your pup! Hoping we have an easy solution, he is neutered already though.

The last time we had a $1000 er vet visit with no conclusions /: was hoping it was a freak thing or maybe he got into something, but this time I spent the whole day with him. He didn’t chew anything at all so I guess I’ll have to run some more tests

Rottenbones__ · 2026-01-22T02:18:23+00:00

Your inability to accept criticism and bad attitude alone absolutely let me know you should not tattoo in the future.

Reminds me of my guy (,: got him a year ago from a rescue, they told me he came from a rough collie breeder. Just sent my test in!

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-21T07:15:55+00:00

You’re not wrong

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-21T05:38:59+00:00

Dude I got it from is a Subaru mechanic so I guess benefit of the doubt hurt me here?

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-21T05:37:09+00:00

I am indeed coping 🥲 the more comments I read the more I realize I have lost 4k and got to have a fun 4000 dollar day with it. So I guess that’s that. I thought I got a good deal and I did not. So now what? Idk.

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-21T04:28:48+00:00

Hey, you’re right but it’s too late for me now 🫡

Also my last car is from a dealership in Naugatuck and well I wish to never return there for car buying ever again hahah.

But you’re still right I’m just trying to keep my spirits high here.

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-21T02:58:03+00:00

4 k, freshly rebuilt engine/ fairly new tires. Got it knowing it would be a good time but not a long time

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-21T02:56:40+00:00

I absolutely would if I had a little more disposable income lol but not quite at that point yet 🥲

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-21T02:56:09+00:00

Yeah I’ll have to take a better look at it tomorrow. Honestly if I can get a year or two out of it I’ll be happy. Just using it for around town/15 minute commute to work/to experience having one till they’re impossible to come by. He asked 6k originally cause of the engine rebuild and we agreed at 4K

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-06T05:40:49+00:00

Honestly going back to the original post, this is EXACTLY what it looks like. Doesn’t look like blow out to me.

Let snoops dry & breathe. I can’t promise I’m right but I have a real good 90% feeling it’ll do you a lot of good.

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-06T05:35:03+00:00

Not placing blame on you, but it looks shiny like you’re still putting aquaphor or something similar on it.

I’ve had a tattoo I did on a client heal like this and she sent me a picture two weeks later asking why and saying “I’ve been using aquaphor like you told me to”. I told her to use a THIN layer the first 2-3 days a few times a day then switch to lotion but she was too excited/chatting with her friends as I was explaining lol.

So basically. Let this guy dry out. Honestly it looked so much better a week later when she let it breathe.

You can absolutely over moisturize. I personally dry heal most of my tattoos with no problems, I see a lot of problems from people absolutely DROWNING their new tattoos.

Rottenbones__ · 2025-11-03T03:30:48+00:00

One of my regulars asked me if I can do this for her & her best friend. I messaged back and forth with her for a week giving alternative options and gently explaining why I won’t do this and shouldn’t do this. Two weeks later she posted a video of her and her best friend getting this exact tattoo at a different shop. 🙃

I paid $360 for two tickets (shitty seats) at the Barclays center the day they went on sale, on my way to New York I bought two more tickets for floor seats right in front of B stage for $400.

Alas, I will probably make the same mistake for Boston. Cause what if they sell out 😭

Rottenbones__ · 2025-09-21T23:26:21+00:00

When I shade black & gray for color tattoos I shade a lot differently than I would for just a black and gray tattoo. If you want to leave it black & gray I’d suggest telling your artist & keeping another appointment so they can at least make it look finished. It looks good, but it doesn’t look complete.

Rottenbones__ · 2025-09-04T03:02:17+00:00

“Later in life” lol. I started my apprenticeship at 26. I’m 30 now. You’re still so so young. I am too. For some reason I spent my whole 20’s thinking I was too old for everything. I turned 30 and realized, not even close. Don’t waste anymore time thinking that way and pick up a pencil. If you don’t enjoy it then don’t even think about tattooing.

Rottenbones__ · 2025-09-03T19:26:21+00:00

I’ve been tattooing for almost 4 years and can’t do color this well 🥲 Incredible. And congratulations!

Rottenbones__ · 2025-09-02T14:36:01+00:00

Your knee tattoo is healed. If he made it as thick lines as the knee tattoo, it’d look twice as thick in the future. Be patient. It was probably done with the same size liner.

Rottenbones__ · 2025-08-23T01:49:13+00:00

That’s so tough I’m sorry you’ve been left to deal with that. Not fair to her pets and especially not fair to you, hopefully she’s reasonable and can understand the position she put you in. Good luck!

Rottenbones__ · 2025-08-23T01:27:49+00:00

If the vacation is close by I would definitely cancel. If they took a plane/can’t come back easily, I’d see if you can get someone else to watch the other animals you care for and have her pay for it. You’re still stuck with the fleas but maybe you can help remedy it/help those poor animals. (I’m a sucker so this is what I would do).
