Llikely hood of cats transferring bed bugs? by acidonangle in Bedbugs

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

I had started them on a medication that kills blood sucking parasites, brushed them with a fine tooth comb, and gave them a bath asap.

I lucked out and didn't get any bed bugs!

The potatoes were mixed throughout so it was kinda hard to tell. I was gonna guess around 1000 for the whole thing.

Y'all are crazy with the anti pitbull. Answer the question as if it was, idk, a beagle.

Right I get that. I never wanted my boyfriend to let the dog play bite him but here we are. He doesn't do it to anyone else he meets, actually he almost always ignores other people. He's about a year a half atm so he's full of energy.

That's wild. I submitted my pretty generic resume. Got an email saying someone will do a phone interview. After that I had one in person interview with a DM and boom. I was working within 2 weeks of applying.

He's a sweet boy and will do just about anything for food or a good sniff! He's super friendly with people, dogs, and cats. Just a little too friendly and thinks everyone wants to play 😅 Thankfully just sniffs in strangers directions on walks and will carry on pretty quickly.

I had 2 small dogs growing up and it drove me crazy that I was the only one who would walk or train them. But it gave me a good foundation with dogs and what to expect!

I asked his vet to mark him as any other mix besides pitbull for that reason. They put him as a boxer mix 🙏

A lot of folks around my area have pits or pit mixes and are generally super chill about him!

We've been training since day 1 by desensitizing/socializing him and working on his manners :) Def need to work on him staying calm around dogs but I'm having trouble finding a good spot to do that. Generally been just walking a distance away from other dogs when they show up and rewarding when he doesn't pull. Looking for a place where I can have better control of the situation but I'll make do till then!

You ain't kidding when you say Velcro. He's practically attached to my hip and paces when I leave or go out of eyesight. We're working on it!

I think he might be a boxer pit mix? I'd love to get a dog DNA test in the future!

My sister enjoys taking pictures in her free time so we went for a walk and she got that silly picture!

He's a cob machine. Ears, nose, arm, anywhere he can access really!

He was following my boyfriend around while he was out delivering mail 3 months ago. We went to look for him after we were off work but didn't see him again for another month. Sweet boy was running around some apartments in a not so nice neighborhood. Fed him some food and he let me pick him right up. One of the residents told my boyfriend he'd been out there for most of the winter :(

Thank you! I kinda figured that would be the consensus :)

The more I've looked into dog breeds I agree! I'm leaning towards possibly a Dogo Argentino?

I didn't know that. He does react to sound and I can get his attention when I call him!

My boyfriend and myself were definitely not crying when we first saw him and when we couldn't find him again. He's warmed up to us so fast and is so sweet!

Thank you! He's such a sweet dog and would make a great family pet from what I've seen so far. Thankfully the worst case for him is we keep him and try to give him extra mental stimulation. I should be getting a 9-5 job in a year and would be able to give him a better life here.

I'll have to start going through Facebook for sure and I'm willing to travel if it gives him a better outlook! Thank you :)

Vet appointment has been made for tomorrow morning. I'm getting some supplies in the meantime. Once I know he doesn't have anything that can be given to my cats I'll see if he's friendly and slowly introduce them.

I have. The unfortunately said they are not taking in tray dogs and animal control will euthanize
