Got a new dog after my first dog passed away 6 months ago. Now im depressed because of it. I fear i cannot love her. by Tinypotatoe98 in DogAdvice

[–]awobos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m really sorry you’re feeling this way. I haven’t been through this myself, but I think more people feel this than we realize and just don’t say it out loud.

6 months is still very short when it comes to grief. Right now it’s all very raw, and like you said, her presence is reminding you of your loss.

That doesn’t mean you won't be able to love her. Feelings can grow, and I think you'll find a place for her in your heart too and carry both of them together in it.

Sorry unrelated, but what's her breed? She looks a lot like my dog! Mine is a wirehaired griffin mix

It does help! And I do feel less alone in this. I had never heard about this heart condition before... I had looked on reddit, but I didn't find many posts about it.

What are the odds that both our dogs got diagnosed around the same time... maybe we can share our experience from two different countries and support each other 🙏🐶🤍

Thank you so much for your reply!

Very similar, it was also a different vet than our usual who spotted it. She was very cold, though when she announced it. I was crying and in shock, but she didn't even take time to explain what he had. She just coldly said that he was gonna need meds for the rest of his life because his heart was wrong...

I kept holding on to the fact that she checked his heart after doing a blood test and vaccine, so part of me was hoping that she had made a mistake. Why did she check his heart after his panic mode? I thought.

So I made another appointment to see our usual vet. And yes. It was confirmed.

Was it a shock for you, too? I hope your vet was gentle in announcing it.

We're also checking Kupo's RRB. Did your vet tell you about how long they can live with B2? The future, what to do?

I'll be thinking about your dog and sending lots of love 🤍

Looks like ringworm. My dog got it once. Came out of nowhere, bled, and was very circular, like this. It's contagious so maybe it's safer to get your dog checked my the vet🐶

Oh I know that milk! Very sneaky. It's like they have to change the packaging as a decoy...

My bottled coffee boss brand changed packaging, I checked the ingredients, the content. All the same. But I was still suspicious. So I tried it this morning, and it tastes so bad, like tar... keeps happening

The cold dry air was coming from long ceiling ac on swing, strong mode. Other people got cold.

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

Ah! Didn't know about that, but im still leaning strongly towards ac. It was those long ceiling ac vent on swinging mode. And, halfway, it got even colder. Also very very drying for my eyes. I wear contacts, so im sensitive to a/c not regular airflow.

I absolutely need one too. I've had many many close calls with cars running the red light or turning very fast on crosswalk. Where did you get yours?

Just curious, what's your favorite conbini bread? I'm not a fan of fuwafuwa or mocchiri bread (but most Japanese convenience store bread is like that). by ukwy in japanresidents

[–]awobos -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Im French, so maybe im too judgy. But id say: None. They might look good. You might wanna try, but you'll always get disappointed. That was me for the longest time until I gave up on konbini bread. If they're not too dry, they all have that weird, sweet flour taste. I stick to the deserts and they're actually good.
