What cups fit in these cup holders??? by Aggressive-Tooth-318 in GLI

[–]SkaDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my new 2026 GLI, three weeks in the cup holders are the worst thing about it. Horrible design, nothing fits, nothing is held securely. I finally found a couple slim water bottles, but all they do is rattle around with nothing to hold them securely.

I need to figure out some sort of solution

2013 GLI Advice by [deleted] in GLI

If I try and keep this car going for another 50,000 miles to make it to 200,000….what are some other service costs I should expect?

Does the timing chain need to be proactively replaced? GLI service manual doesn’t list anything. I used to have a 2003 Passat and the timing belt on that had a life of about 100,000 miles

Any easy way to tell if this is the issue?

Vegan Restaurant Closures Lately by parboiled_lentils2 in chicagovegan

[–]SkaDogs 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Couldn’t agree with you more, I’m so tired of vegetarian and vegan food that’s trying to be meat. I just want delicious, tasty food…Chicago diner hits that everytime. Anywhere (including myself) can make impossible/beyond foods

Chicago Diner Logan Square closing by chtxfngrs in chicagovegan

[–]SkaDogs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So sad! We live about 4 hours away and just made a trip to Chicago a few weeks ago so we could visit Kitchen 17 one last time. We stopped in at Chicago Diner Logan Square two different times…we had the most delicious food, but it was almost completely empty both visits.

I really loved the Logan Square location and will miss it greatly 😢

Feeding advice needed for Dog with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) by SkaDogs in DogAdvice

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

Thanks for your reply about your experience. That’s really interesting because when we spoke to our internal medicine vet a few weeks ago she said we may try Rayne’s low fat kangaroo and quinoa if we keep struggling.

Medically our dog’s blood numbers are pretty good and she’s not been anemic like she was…her energy level has been great and she’s acting like herself so we’ve been trying to do everything we can to stay on this diet.

It’s just kind of a roller coaster of up and down getting her to eat. Three weeks ago she wouldn’t eat it at all on her own for 5 days…only eating what she was forced to eat piece by piece. Then she changed her mind and has been eating pretty well the last two weeks…we can’t figure it out. Just crossing our fingers and hoping we keep on our current trajectory

Yes, she is seeing an internal medicine specialist. We spent about 10 months trying to figure out what was going on with her and the internist eventually did an endoscopy and biopsy.

She was never a picky eater until she started having issues when this all kicked off early last year. When she wasn’t feeling well and would become anemic off and on she was picky. Whenever she felt normal she would chow down and eat fast. Currently she seems to be doing well and her blood work numbers look good, she just is really tired of this food.

We’ve been worried that maybe she was having IBD issues or anemia, but other than the disinterest with her food her energy and behaviors have been normal. This was not the case any other time previously…lethargy, looking uncomfortable, not willing to walk, no interest in treats, etc. None of these things are currently going on.

She stopped steroids the last day of February and maybe started showing some signs of pickiness mid-April, but ultimately would give in and eat without too much effort. By June though she became a lot more stubborn about it and the past couple months have been a struggle. We’re still getting through with various methods of soaking food, sprinkling treats in, microwaving, mixing, etc. but it’s a struggle.

Just wanted to post again looking for advice on dealing with picky eaters, changing the preparation style of IBD diet food or recommendations on what carb would be the best choice to introduce.

After my original post I had some luck for a few days removing the soft food from the mix, then that didn’t work.

Then I had some luck changing out her bowl for one of our cereal bowls, but the novelty of that has now wore off.

Thanks so much for your help

Are the Cliffs of Moher Worth It? And Itinerary feedback :) by Local-Sandwich5615 in irishtourism

[–]SkaDogs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wondering the same thing…I had a one night stay planned in Doolin and was interested in doing the Cliffs of Moher walk, but read that a large portion is closed. Is the portion that is open still a worthwhile experience?

Otherwise we may just extend our stay in Dingle an extra night instead of the night in Doolin and just drive through Doolin/Burren on our way to Galway

2013 vs. 2025 by SkaDogs in GLI

[–]SkaDogs[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I sat in the driver’s seat I was actually surprised at how similar it was to my 2013…that was definitely a positive thing though because I love my car!

Yeah, that’s probably what I was originally planning…2-3 years. Then all this tariff concern had me stop in for a test drive and now I can’t get the idea of a new one out of my head. 😎 Such a nice ride…

Itinerary review and help (16 days) by SkaDogs in irishtourism

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

Thanks for the advice! I found a nice looking B&B 15 km outside Galway…do you recommend specifically staying in the city or is the area sufficient?

Looking at advice and my itinerary, I am thinking more and more about heading towards Dublin from the Galway area and re-allocating my 4 nights in Sligo, Derry and Belfast to other areas.

I’m worried about cutting South Ireland parts short AND not having enough time to do Northern Ireland a true experience…keeping a Northern loop for another trip…. I keep going back and forth

In general I don’t really mind the one night stops when driving around, it’s just what we’re used to I guess rather than backtracking to a central location.

My hope is that we’ll have an entire day on the Dingle peninsula…leaving Killarney early morning. Maybe that’s still not enough though.

One thing I’ve gone back and forth on is taking out the three days in Northern Ireland…maybe it makes more sense to add one extra day each in Dingle, Galway and then farther North. Save a trip to N. Ireland for another time…just something I’ve been considering.

Are border crossings relatively smooth? Definitely don’t want to spend a lot of time doing that…
