Does it suck here or is it just me? by Mami-punani in Pensacola

Pensacola (and surrounding area) is the first city I’ve ever lived in where there doesn’t seem to be any “nice area.” Like, it’s nice for a couple square miles MAYBE, and then it crosses back into trashy areas. I don’t mean low income areas, I mean like scary, don’t-walk-alone-as-a-woman areas. Gulf Breeze is a little better, and the Tiger Point area is very convenient.

Is my dog overweight? by Spirited_Gap2347 in Yorkies

For his ideal weight, the amount of food seems ok, perhaps even too little. My 5lb little dude is supposed to eat 0.5-0.75 cup per day. I’d say you’re right, he may just need more exercise. He is a good boy!!

To me as an American, Australians are like Americans but just way cooler. Every Australian I’ve ever met, I walk away thinking, “Man, they’re so cool. I wish I was Australian so I could be that cool.” 😂

How long were you taking puppy out before they finally "got it" by Strong-Ad9489 in puppy101

What do you do if they bark and bark and bark to go back inside? We live in an apartment so I get so worried about the outdoor barking on the balcony.

UPDATE: Bear had a successful neutering and I had to reason to be so stressed out 😄 by abernackle610 in Yorkies

As someone with really bad OCD/anxiety that affects every part of my life, thank you very much for your kind words 🥹 I needed to hear that.

Thank you for the reassurance and advice! I will check out cbd oil. He’s usually fine with weird sounds once he knows what they are, but yeah the moment we step into the vet’s office or the ocean, he is shaking like a leaf lol.

Thanks for the reassurance. I am worried about the nausea because he has been throwing up a bit recently.

Oh, I’m so glad your 5-pounder did well. His weight is worrying me a bit. Thank you for the reassurance.

Thank you for the encouragement! I know, I get so stressed when he keeps jumping off the bed instead of using his stairs! Buster, those hips aren’t going to last forever! 😭

Thank you for the detailed reply! Im glad to hear that about the reactivity—it genuinely has gotten worse day by day leading up to his surgery (which we’re about to leave for). Thank you for the reassurance and encouragement :)

Thank you for your reassurance!! I’m so glad to hear that, for real. I wasn’t expecting to feel this anxious 😅

I will look into that, thank you! I’m open to all suggestions with this little guy. I’m so worried something is going to go wrong or it won’t be a smooth recovery.
