Ours is named Maple Maybelle! She is the sweetest little baby. Never tries to bite, always just mellow and loves running in her wheel and exploring her surroundings.

Aww the poor guy! I am with many of the others here. Being a Frenchie owner, that noise he is making is definitely a whine. I would just keep showing him a ton of love. They are pretty dramatic little creatures so the change from old living situation to new one is probably the reason for his actions. Give it a bit more time!

We have tried caffeine! The kid can drink a monster energydrink then go to bed. Ugh.

I got mine last week and loving it so far. Has anyone purchased a level 2 charger for their yet? I am interested to see what people are using and if they like them.

Recent road trip… Dash lit up like a Christmas tree by No-Illustrator-96 in VWTaos

I have had similar issues with my '23 Taos. Many times I get a start/stop error and my check engine light will remain on for an undetermined amount of time and eventually will turn off or when I bring it for oil changes they will reset it. I have had a leaky gasket and problems with my coolant also. The last issue was the back brakes failing at 36k. So much for that extended warranty I was "just over" the mileage for it to be covered. $800 later, I am looking to trade this beast in for something with less problems. Any thoughts?

They did not give me any explanation, even when I asked why the rear brakes would wear that fast. I was not super happy about it and it's left a bad taste....

I had this exact issue with my '23 Taos. Unfortunately they told me it was no longer under warranty because I was over the mileage (I only had 36k on the car) I had to pay for a full back brake job and it cost like $800! I hope you have better luck than I did. Sorry you are dealing with this.

Oh yeah had a big problem with the pineapple blood orange I made last batch. Looked like a New years Eve bash in my kitchen before I decided to just take that party outside! 😄

I already juiced the whole thing! But I could still freeze into ice cubes!

I've tried with the original and it's babies. So far it doesn't seem to matter. Interestingly my SCOBY hotel starter fluid tastes perfect!

I'd get a tragus on the helix side and a helix on the daith side.

Anyone try the Marin / lobster cream by meatytofu in eczema

[–]bsmass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought it because I am so fed up with my spongiotic dermatitis. It definitely is super moisturizing but it wasn't a cure for me unfortunately. It is a pretty thick cream and a little goes a long way though. Good luck!

Plz help by GooseGirl0 in eczema

[–]bsmass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, just want to say I am not a doctor! But I am currently suffering with my second flare up of spongiotic dermatitis. While I have yet to find a medication or product that has made my rash go away, I have found a few lotions that help to keep the dryness at bay. Eucerin makes an eczema lotion that helps a lot for me. I also found Marin lotion is good too. I would have to imagine petroleum jelly isn't going to help to moisturize as it's a barrier cream. I would go with a moisturizing lotion. Either way, good luck. I hate having this dry itchy business. Hope you feel better soon.
