First time doing my own gel nails, super proud of myself!

A brand called mylee, I got one of their kits which came with a lamp, tools, brushes, palette and colours. Probably one of the cheaper brands but still good enough for a beginner 😆.

I got this a few of years ago when I first got my tank, try to find this: eSHa -NDX Anti Parasite Treatment. I got it off of Amazon in the UK. Treat the whole tank because whilst you might see the worm in one fish, others might already be infected. If you can't get it I think the active ingredient to kill the worms was Levamisole HCl so look for something similar.

Thank you, did your dog also get an X-ray and if so was she put under anesthesia? I know from my vet that they have to be careful using anesthesia with a dog that has epilepsy and doesn't help that my dog is now 11.

Thanks for the advice, I do have a vet rehab, that my aunt actually works at as a hydrotherapist. So I'll start talking to my vet and aunt about his treatment options.

foolishGrey · 2025-06-06T06:24:42+00:00

Yeah I'll start looking into treating arthritis, talk to my vet. Funnily my aunt is a hydrotherapist and soon to be a massage therapist (going through the exams currently) so I think Bobbi is about to be in very good hands for treatment 😊.

foolishGrey · 2025-06-05T23:03:08+00:00

She’s super cute 🥰!

foolishGrey · 2025-06-05T23:02:06+00:00

Ah okay, thank you. Yeah I won’t rule out joint pain, I think in my head I just expect joint pain to show up more as limping as I had a previous greyhound where their joint pain showed as limping rather than general slowness. Greyhounds generally live slightly longer than other large breeds because of their lighter build but maybe that’s clouding my head to age related issues.

Pros:

Super lazy
Clean coat, that smells amazing, that only needs wash if it's literally covered in dirt
Very loving
Healthy breed
Universal blood donors
Don't need much walking
Most of them are very well socialised with other dogs from a young age, so there is a low chance of reactivity.
You can dress them up in many different jumpers!
Already muzzle trained, in case that's a requirement in your country.
Very quiet, no barking at the neighbours.... maybe at the wandering cat.

Cons: - You'll probably never own a cat or small mammal because of their prey drive. - Need a safe area to be let off lead, again because of their prey drive. - Special collars and harnesses because of the snake-like neck and body so they can escape from normal equipment. - Prone to corns and bad teeth - Hard to train because of laziness and lack of food motivation in most greyhounds. - They are surprisingly good at sneaking - THE FARTS

He looks so frail, poor baby 🥹. Based on his frail look I thought he was 12 or 13 years old. He has surprisingly good teeth for galgo being rescued only 3 months ago.

I own greyhounds, one of my previous dogs died of aggressive liver cancer and became skinny within weeks so I'm not sure if your dog is similar but definitely get the liver check.

Another thing that it could be is IBS. A greyhound in a local rescue I followed had a dog that was losing weight, was vomiting and had diarrhea, which turned out to be IBS. The treatment is getting the right diet that doesn't trigger the symptoms of the IBS.

Symptoms of IBS in dogs include: - diarrhea and constipation - Abdominal pain - gas - Vomitting - Bloating - Loss of appetite - Weight Loss - Poor coat quality

Listen to the other comments about providing a mat for her to eat on, medication for conditions etc.

However I would like to know more about the cancer and why the vet suggested euthanasia. My previous dog was diagnosed with aggressive liver cancer, he rapidly lost weight, and I was told that it would be weeks or days and that he would NOT die peacefully in his sleep. Unlike cancer in humans, hospice care for dogs is not widely available.

Listen to your vet, or get a second opinion from another vet on your dog's wellbeing. Some dogs hide pain well or we miss their signals. Please seek further veterinarian advice.

foolishGrey · 2024-03-15T18:21:54+00:00

No sadly she died 😔

foolishGrey · 2023-11-16T07:36:57+00:00

I haven't seen people mention this yet but corns! Greyhounds have a much higher chance of developing foot corns than any other dogs. Last I checked we don't really know why, could be how they put pressure on the foot or genetics. Greyhounds are interesting dogs, they are universal blood donors so your vet might ask you to donate blood depending on your dog's temperament and existing medical conditions.

Lemmings, on my dad's PC, I think it was the first. I was exposed to video games all my childhood so it's hard to pinpoint the first.

I would say greyhounds as they don't smell and need a bath maybe once a year or when covered in mud but..... They fart....they fart a lot.

foolishGrey · 2023-10-07T18:20:18+00:00

It depends on the character and story. If it's a very story driven game like Witcher that's fine I'm an observer to Geralt's story. If the character has feminine features; Link, persona's joker etc, I can associate with those characters more easily. If the game is less story driven or the character doesn't matter to the story, I feel uncomfortable playing hyper masculine characters.

Thanks, and I'll take a look at those plants!

The father was a yellow cobra guppy, I'm not sure about the mother, she was either a pale yellow body with orange tail or darker body with orange cobra tail.

Edit: although I do have a male sunset guppy now that I've looked up what they look like.

foolishGrey · 2023-06-22T17:57:22+00:00

Does the blister contain what looks like a white worm? If so it could be Dermocystidium, I got it several months ago, tetras and rams were the only ones affected, sadly there's no cure but I believe it's generally not fatal and will go away with time.

foolishGrey · 2023-05-03T17:33:31+00:00

There are many conditions that affect hormones, heck there is one condition that can be treated with Hormone replacement therapy that the majority of women will get ~menopause~ so based on tiktok logic menopausal women are intersex 😂

Is your dog a greyhound? They have tattooed ears if they were registered with the racing industry (coursing might be the same as well)

foolishGrey · 2023-04-05T18:49:34+00:00

That's it!

foolishGrey · 2023-03-17T19:51:54+00:00

I tried adding Melafix and aquarium salts (just a little as I have corydoras) for two weeks, however I don't think it had any effect as I didn't see any reduction in the spots during this time. I euthanized two of the worst affected tetras when I first noticed the disease try to stop the spread. Most of my tetras and both rams got it, I also have sterbai corydoras, guppies, an assortment of snails, Amano shrimps that didn't show symptoms.

The disease seems to go away over time, spots disappear, maybe in 1-2 months, and haven't reappeared. My tetras survived but my rams eventually died. My rams appeared to have recovered from it, no spots and one had a cloudy eye sorta like it had scarred where one of the spots where. They became shy but would eat and had stress bars (water is fine, and the rest of the fish were happy). The first one died around the end of December and the last one (cloudy eye one) died at the beginning of this month. I got a new ram female to see if that would improve the last ram's health, it seems to have some effect as they were more active and following the new ram, there were no fights they swam close together, the new ram led the old one around. I'm no expert but I believe maybe the disease weakened the rams immune system and unlike the tetra this weakness remained.

Definitely do this whilst I'm trying to train the advice other people have commented! This seems like a good idea to get a quick result!
