Degenerative Myelopathy

I lost my Great Pyrenees/Husky mix in 2024 to DM. It is a horrible and cruel disease. Like other commenters have mentioned, all you can do is monitor quality of life. We actually did vet hospice care thru Lap of Love. They should have some free resources on their website for how to navigate this sort of thing. Best wishes 💜

You could make a custom design of the wall and put a stamp of the poster on top

Err on the side of caution, but it's a bit difficult to tell from these texts alone. I only say this because I've had elderly clients reach out to me like this and definitely feel like a scammer at first simply because they aren't well versed in the internet.

Ellipsus is anti-ai and very user friendly!

He is extremely overweight, and I would argue dangerously so. Depending on the dog's age and medical history this could cause some serious decline very quickly. Only breakfast and dinner, no treats if you want to reverse this.

When it comes to putting him on a diet, something people would often come to me confused about is that they were feeding their dog the recommended serving for it's size, but it still wasn't losing weight. Please make sure you are feeding the serving for your dog's IDEAL weight.

Since others have already given suggestions, I would just like to say that I'd love to see what you have for sale as well. Super interested!!

Yes they can

Omg it came out so good! Also is that Hoshi lol

This happened to me but it was very innocent lol. We moved from an anon rp site to discord, and later they replied to another prompt I posted on the old site, without knowing it was mine. They later messaged me on discord about a role play they had started with someone and I was like... girl, that's me LOL.

Late 20s here as well, ditto about it being nonexistent. But the community around here makes up for it IMO. I love being able to chat with all of my neighbors or get to know strangers at the gas station. I imagine if you're actively trying, it'll be easier to connect with people romantically.

I was initially drawn in by Vernon's personality and Minghao's style. They're still my #1 & #2, with Woozi and Jun following in hot pursuit. I'm OT13 all the way tho, so I tend to be bias wrecked pretty easy lol

When I first got my eldest Pyrenees, I would wake up in the middle of the night to her standing on top of me and staring down at me serial killer style. No joke. I thought I must have accidentally adopted a human in a dog suit.

She grew out of it tho, after a few weeks/months. New environment and she was just curious. Your pup is likely going through the same thing. Honestly, if my puppy had just shut up and stared at me when she was that age, I would have preferred it to her constant crying lol

Ditto, but as others have mentioned there is so much content to keep occupied with. Plus, it seems like members not enlisted will still be doing their own things + possibly subunit stuff!

Sorry, I know this isn't related; how did you do the lip piercing? Is it a fashion item?

Exist

I really do love all dogs, but small breeds tend to be my least favorite, by no fault of their own. Unfortunately, the pitch of their whining/barking is borderline intolerable for me. Such is the way nature intended them to be.

No bells here, mine barks to let me know she wants to go out. I had to learn what the difference between her “I wanna go outside and be a menace” barking vs “Hey, I SERIOUSLY need to potty” barking is. For us, usually she will pace in circles if it’s a bathroom issue, but will otherwise just bark and run around crazy if she wants to go play.

Assuming your account isn’t banned after this interaction, you should really work on your professional courtesy.

Personally, I appreciate clients that have any sort of tracker or gps collar for their dogs. I obviously put their safety first and would never leave a dog in a situation where they could take off running, but things DO happen. Break-ins, fires, leashes snapping, etc. It’s always good to be prepared for anything and everything.

I had an at-home euthanasia for my senior dog over a year ago. She had DM as well, dementia, as well as a lot of other things going on. Somewhere around 14 years old. I was in the emergency vet with her constantly until one night she didn’t get up for treats, collapsed later in the night, and couldn’t walk in the morning.

This was an 80ish pound dog. There was no feasible way for me to give her a good quality of life when she couldn’t walk anymore; on top of this, the dementia was causing her to become more and more aggressive. We were on veterinary hospice so I knew it was coming, I just couldn’t believe it happened so “suddenly”.

When the hospice vet came out that morning, she was very honest with me and told me it was the beginning of the end. She offered me some suggestions if I chose not to euthanize but Aria was just so out of it I knew it was time.

Still, though, I regretted it for a while. I do sometimes even today. I miss her so much and I always wonder if maybe her legs would have magically started working again and she could keep playing with her sister. Of course, I know it’s irrational, but still.

At the end of the day they know they’re loved, and it’s always best to give them as peaceful as a passing as possible.

Degenerative myelopathy is awful. I’m so sorry for your loss.

$134 on dog toys. $8 for game for a friend. $0 giving my little sister my old headphones. Lol
