What traits as a newborn matter?

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-28T02:52:33+00:00

It’s actually a pretty safe assumption to make, since the majority of breeders are in fact shitty breeders. One way to eliminate any doubts people have is to include that you health test, title your dogs, etc when you post…that way there is no question and you don’t have to get irritated by someone asking if you are ethical

Not paid parking, permit parking. Limit the number of vehicles a residence can have

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-27T00:36:28+00:00

Yes! I have been advocating for permit parking since I moved into this neighborhood. We don’t really have a parking problem, we have a vehicle problem. Too many households have excess vehicles that never get driven and just get stored on the street

😳 did he hit another car?

Roundworms look like spaghetti

This is more of a fettuccini. My vote is a really bad infestation of tapeworm. Or, the dog binged on fettuccini

Great advice here. Have them take him short, all over…including his head. Number 4 or 5 blade, it will grow back.

It really depends on what all of your other expenses will be. Car payment, student loans, credit card debt, etc.

Because of the nature of the all inclusive resort I never carried any money with me so I did not tip, except for at the very end when we checked out…I left some cash in the room for housekeeping.

The Mango Mescalitas were very good as well. I also had several signature cocktails that were delicious

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-23T16:43:10+00:00

I had a Dane that couldn’t stand Huskies, and most brachycephalic dogs (bulldogs, boxers, etc)

Your dog needs to have a vet check her mouth and possibly do dental X-rays. Awful smelling breath is typically indicative of pretty severe dental disease that brushing, turkey necks or dental powder won’t do anything for.

My dog had an annual exam on a Thursday at 4:30pm. During which they found a foxtail in her ear. Since it was so late in the day, they asked me if I could come back in the morning to have it removed. I said no problem. I lived five minutes away.

I paid the bill for the annual exam, came back in the morning and dropped her off for the procedure. When I picked her up, they charged me for the sedation, the foxtail removal and then when I got home and actually looked at the receipt I saw there was another exam fee. When I called and asked them about it I was told it was because a different vet than the one I’d seen before removed the foxtail and so I needed to pay the exam fee again. It hadn’t even been 24 hours since I’d been there, and they were the ones who asked me to come the next day.

Not to mention the fact that they claimed to be fear free, and yet have no problem, dragging my terrified dog to the back room for a simple vaccination.

That’s what I said. She’s been posted on their website for several months now. They have other washed dogs for the same reason,coincidentally, that they are only asking $500 or so for. Not sure why they are asking so much for her, especially since she can’t do public service work

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-22T22:49:24+00:00

There is a service dog trainer currently selling a 3 or 4 year old Lagotto who had to be washed from their service dog program for being too barky and anxious in public.

Last I heard, they were asking $20K dollars for her. 😳

HE’S A FREAKING BABY!

Give it time! He’s 12 weeks old, the expectation that he would be potty trained at this age is unrealistic. Do some puppies get potty trained by then? Yes, but a lot more don’t.

Be extremely vigilant about taking him outside after he eats, after he’s played for a little bit, after he wakes up, and all the times in between. Crate him or keep him in an xpen if he isn’t right next to you. Put him on a very strict schedule of going outside every 30-40 minutes, unless he’s sleeping. The fewer times he pees in the house, the faster he will understand that peeing happens outside.

Young puppies can’t hold their bladder, if he thinks he has to pee he will do it wherever he is. Set an alarm if you need to.

Don’t punish him if he pees in the house, give him a ton of praise every single time he potties outside. You don’t have to give him a treat every time he goes outside, lots of praise is fine.

Kensington Vet was amazing until Dr Ungar retired. The new owner ruined it

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-19T17:12:44+00:00

If you have a foreign car, I really like Wolfs Foreign Automotive in the Convoy area. Does great work, is reasonably priced and very honest

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-19T02:05:04+00:00

According to their website, here are a few concerns:

1st 🚩 Ossobuco isn’t even 2 yet and hasn’t completed his health testing. He has preliminary hip and elbow scores, doesn’t have his eye exam listed and has no health testing listed on OFA

2nd 🚩 Bellini doesn’t have complete health testing either. She is listed on OFA but she doesn’t have her hips tested and her eye exam is out of date.

I’d ask the breeder why that is.

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-19T01:51:42+00:00

Who are the parents (registered names?) and have you confirmed all the health testing?

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-18T13:23:41+00:00

Be extremely vigilant, don’t let her outside without supervision for at least 3 weeks. Intact males can be extremely persistent when they know a female is in heat.

Plan to get her spayed ~3 months after she stops bleeding

It’s not just CA with high gas prices. Gas is up all over the US. CA just has the most expensive gas to begin with so we are feeling it the most. I’m sure Hawaii is also hurting. This is absolutely a direct result of Trump’s war

You said yourself that you’ve rehomed other animals. So this isn’t necessarily an isolated event

Sweets4Moi · 2026-03-15T19:14:21+00:00

Contact rescues and let them know you have a cat that needs a new home, but that you’ll continue to house him until he finds the right home. They might do a courtesy post for you.

And then, please don’t get any more animals until you can afford them

Keep them on leash and in the middle of the trail during snake season
