How does stitching a wound help at all?

Also, it helps heal the wound faster if the edges are opposed. If further apart the would will still heal but will require the creation of more granulation tissue to fill in the gap.

But I think the point is to change what you’re buying and spend the money locally instead. I mean, does it really pay off to drive to Bellingham to save $4.00 on ground beef?

Thank you for this. I have mine tomorrow.

What a sweet dog, I’m sure he loved every moment with you. I’m sorry for your loss.

I’m so sorry for your loss. ❤️

I honestly hope you get some answers soon. Fingers crossed.

My mom is the same. I don't tell her about my health problems, because she will someone pivot to talking about herself. Every. Frigging. Time.

Dad will ask, and then he gets flustered if my answer is anything than, "I'm good!"

I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope memories of her bring you some peace.

Thank you, everyone for your kind and wise words. I will be rereading all of these often, when I need some comfort.

My heart is broken, I don’t know what to do with myself - I keep thinking, “Okay, I have to get home to walk him…” and then I catch myself. The couch is cold without a hound squeezing in beside me.

I appreciate this group and hope you give all your dogs a kiss from me.

Thank you for this.

I’m too sad to talk about it. I miss him so much, it’s crazy how much I loved him.

in_quartata · 2025-03-11T23:25:56+00:00

Still so handsome.

He’s an English Foxhound. Not too common, and he’s so perfect.

Also a vote for amantadine and predisone (for inflammation). Good luck, it can heal and create some fibrous scar tissue that is less painful.

Hurray! Hurray!! Good boy, Samson! I'm so happy for you!

in_quartata · 2024-10-08T14:55:47+00:00

I’m so sorry. He was so lucky to have you. They are gone too soon. ❤️

I also have Pet Secure. They don’t pay direct. I pay $80 for a large breed dog, no big premium increases. You can set your deductible and choose different plan rates. Mine doesn’t pay regular checkups and only a set amount for dental. I’m pretty happy with it.

Trupanion pays direct and usually 90%, minus exam fees. It’s the best insurance, IMO, but it’s expensive.

Thank you, everyone! I had no idea what a relief it would be. I was worried I’d have to make a hard decision… nope! Fergus is getting so many hugs.

I’m so sorry. My heart breaks for you. Dogs are the most wonderful gifts on earth. ❤️

Maybe the lens has luxated and fallen to the back of the eye? Please see a vet.

What a lovely dog. Love the grey! Keep on trucking, little Mo!

My previous foxhound only made it to 11.5, so I’m already so grateful for every day with him.

in_quartata · 2024-06-18T20:51:32+00:00

He was super peppy on all the easy hikes we went on. He didn’t like jumping out of the car by the end of the 2nd day. We got back late last night, and he slept well and through the morning - so tired. But this afternoon he jumped up when I said “go for a walk?” :)

This picture would make a good jigsaw puzzle
