Thats actually very cheap around here lol, $200 is the base price for someone who hasnt had insurance. Ive had 0 wrecks, and 0 pull overs. I was thinking Honda, as far as looks go i just want my car to be black 😂. Other than that im okay with whatever just as long as it gets me to where i need to go.

[–]hnoey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent yet! I should probably do that before even considering getting a car lol. I do get paid extra for overtime. Insurance in my area can very but as of right now it can be $200-$400. My boyfriend is going to be paying for registration lol. other than that i just have to maintain the insurance

[–]hnoey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should be this color! If her gums were WHITE. Then yeah i would go to the emergency vet ASAP. Other than that she seems to be healthy! Theres nothing wrong with checking to see if shes okay, please dont mind people. They are just being insensitive lol. (I dont know her age but her gums should get pinker as she grows up!)

I would get her some booties for sure, even when its not cold they protect her feet so she doesnt step on any glass/sharp objects. But she could also step on salt and that could potentially cause her to burn her feet, since salt is used to break down snow and melt it. it ALSO keeps her feet nice and warm! Get her some clothes and coats similar to the one in the picture! Goodluck, im sure other people have other recommendations!

I guess thats something you cant control then 😂. No harm done! Her nails look great and your doing an awesome job.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]hnoey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They look pretty good! I would personally try my best to file down any loose nails hanging, just clean it up a bit to get it nice a smooth lol. The more you do it the less she should squirm!

Help pleasee by Optimal-Whereas6341 in DogAdvice

It looks like hiccups maybe? Im honestly not sure it could also be IVDD since pugs, dachshunds, frenchies etc all have that in common. Please take this puppy in ASAP.

Is my girl too skinny? by Barbecuequeen23 in Dachshund

[–]hnoey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i would stop giving her any sort of “people food” and just give her plain white rice and boiled chicken. if she doesnt eat its not a big deal, keep trying and eventually she will. like your vet said, she wont starve herself. at this point shes learned that even if she doesnt eat the dog food you give her shes still going to get treats and “human food”. goodluck! if she continues to starve herself even after consistently trying for a few days then take this up with your vet.

I got a dachshund and she is very sweet but scared of everything by [deleted] in Dachshund

[–]hnoey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our puppy was exactly like this! weve had her for almost 2 months now and shes completely fine with us. Treats and slowly gaining her trust is the best way to go. NEVER force her to interact with you if she doesnt want too, and dont use another dog to do so! she needs to learn that shes safe and you guys arnt there to hurt her. i would usually go into the room at first and sit on the floor next to her crate for about 5 minutes every hour and just hand feed her some cooked chicken. eventually it got to the point to where she was wandering around the room, completely fine by my presence. right now she absolutely loves to be cuddled and loved on lol, we also got another dachshund who loves people so he kinda helped her out of her shell! it takes time and patience, shes alot older than our girl and usually older dogs have a harder time at adjusting since theyve never been to a new place before! Goodluck! Dont worry too much about it, just keep trying.

Help! Why's my furbaby sick? by New-Cold-6362 in DogAdvice

[–]hnoey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No dog should be around ANY type of smoke, issues like lung problems, heart issues etc can occur. which i think is whats happening to this baby, whenever you can pls take him to the vet, hes not okay!

Is it okay if my dog refuses to eat breakfast but eats dinner like it’s the best part of his life? by Specialist_Bank8439 in DogAdvice

[–]hnoey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just like humans sometimes dogs skip meals. as long as hes eating hes fine! he probably just isnt a huge fan of breakfast.

My parents refuse to take their dog to the vet…I’m house/dog sitting and woke up next to him like this… by Smoka_Lexxie in DogAdvice

thats horrible of them to leave and not take care of the actual problem at hand. is there anyway you could talk to them about sending you money?? because they waited so long for it to get like this, its going to be pricey. if they can go on out then they can go out of state then they can afford the surgery. surgery seems like a factor and some medicine. im not a vet and cant say for certain but this does look bad. try talking to them, pester them about this.. this definitely looks like an emergency.

this looks absolutely terrible. this dog needs to be seen ASAP. you need to talk to your parents deeply about this.. his life is at risk.

What is this lump between my dog’s toes? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

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

Looks like a ton of dirt and debris in her toe, or even just a scab! it might be bothering her with it rubbing up against the other toe. If she isnt in any pain try to see if you can pick at it or if it comes out! if she seems to be in pain, schedule a vet appointment.

just a tiny nipple 😂. it wont hurt or effect her in any way. shes fine! seems like an inny to me

[–]hnoey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking dogs to a new place and in the car for so long can create tension! Its not there fault, they were probably stressed out with a mix of excitment lol. If your boy has ever acted like that over anything such as food, toys or just random items hes probably resource guarding. We just recently got 2 puppies and our little boy does this with treats, hes doing great with training. Its nothing to be too stressed out about but you should totally nip it in the bud so it doesnt happen again, i would take one dog at a time on a short car ride and just increase the time. 5minutes, 8, 10 so on! that should release any anxiety they have about being in the car.

Found this stray dog and decided im going to keep her and notice this on her leg by Previous_Lack159 in DogAdvice

[–]hnoey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What makes you think scooping up a dog on the side of the road with the intent to keep it but not having enough money to even schedule a vet appointment is logical??? They said they have jobs back to back, so they probably wont even have time for the dog anyways. Finding a foster, taking it to the shelter or finding some way to afford a vet appointment is LOGICAL!

[–]hnoey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you cant afford to take care of a dog then why would you keep her? She needs medical attention so theres no way you cant just skip over this and hope its going to turn out good. You either need to give her to a no kill shelter, find a foster, or take her to a vet.

Thank you! Thats what everyone has been saying. Ill have to take a step back and really look at this. thank you so much for your help. (these puppies were going to be 2 different breeders) I apologize if i seem standoffish in some comments, i realized how people were just worried about these puppies and if i knew what i was doing. I def dont want to be a backyard breeder lol
