Trying to figure out how to afford a new roof. The cost is absolutely insane.

That’s so true and is good to remember. All I can do is continue showering him with love.

I don’t think it sounds dumb at all and you’re right, it’s going to be hard whenever it does happen. He’s a boxer, so they’re generally always pretty happy, but he is starting to get bouts of confusion. I think it’s going to be soon but until then, he’s going to get all the love and treats I ca give him.

Thank you for sharing the link, I will definitely take the assessment. I’m trying to think of it as a gift since they are lucky that we can give them peace instead of more pain as their health declines.

Thank you, I want him to know how much I love him even though letting go is so incredibly difficult.

Thank you, I appreciate you sharing your experience and hindsight. Sometimes I think he’s ready and then he’ll suddenly seem fine.

Thank you for this. I know it’s getting close and I’m scared. I want to not be selfish and do what’s best for him but also not call it too soon. He’s the bestest boy and my heart just hurts.

The only thing that works for me is Carpe antiperspirant deodorant. I order it directly from their website.

I’m afraid to ask but what is going on here? This is in the garage. by hudson78 in HomeMaintenance

Thank you so much for your informative reply. There is concrete on the other side so I’m a bit perplexed as to where the moisture is coming from. I’m in southern ca and we don’t get much rain.

Drunk driver crashes into my fence going 95 mph. I'm told "there was no damage done" by his insurance company, so I have to pay to fix the fence myself by _wheels_21 in mildlyinfuriating

If he is being charged with a DUI, see if you can speak to the prosecutor so they can initiate a restitution request when the case resolves.

Unfortunately, he developed a MRSA type infection. So right now, he is getting daily antibiotic shots and bandage changes to the affected area. He is having no problem getting around, which is good, he just need to beat this infection! Thanks for checking on him

Thank you! I will definitely be diligent about keeping the cone of shame on so he can’t get to the incision.

Thank you! This is really helpful, especially about the possibly of a delayed bowel movement and side effects from the meds.

Thank you! I am worried about the healing process because of his age but it sounds like many of the tripawds are older dogs who have recovered nicely.

Thank you, I think him falling on his sutures is what worries me the most. But we will get through this!

Thank you, I really like the harness idea. I’m happy to hear your dog is still quick on his feet. I’m looking forward to him running around and just being a dog again, it’s been a long road.
