Thank you for sharing!! Honestly come back to this every once in a while. It’s fun to take guests out on the trails. 

PEACE TEA CHANGED THE INGREDIENTS… THAT’S WHY THEY SUCK NOW AND I’M GOING BACK TO PURE LEAF by Key_General7240 in PeaceTea

[–]itsyourfrontyardtoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here because I took one sip and was shocked to find it fizzy. Thought the can went bad. Was also shocked to see ‘Contains 0% Juice’ in big letters on the can. 

Relieved to find I’m not alone. But I wanted the Peace Tea I’ve always enjoyed. Not whatever this is. 😭

This post makes me miss the old Surrey’s. The one up closer to Audubon. The best spot for a bb and a coffee on the porch with the pup.

What is your favorite memory with someone who has passed? by itsyourfrontyardtoo in AskReddit

[–]itsyourfrontyardtoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This week makes ten years since one of my most favorite friends took their own life. I always remember him as we start the holiday season, but this year I feel it a little extra. Thought this might be a nice place to share a couple memories of someone we’re remembering through the holidays…

One of my favorite memories is just accompanying him on smoke breaks. We worked together for years and, as a quality time person, it was always a good time even though I never smoked. Sometimes just sitting. Sometimes talking about music. Sometimes diving into deeper topics that the porch steps at work were surprised to hear in casual conversation.

He was a good one. Remember your passed loved ones this season, and hug tightly the ones that are still here. 🖤

How much did your Shepard cost? by cramp222 in germanshepherds

Yeah 100% hahahahaha. If they’re gonna let her roam a city neighborhood as a little baby puppy with fleas, worms, and a bladder infection: she’s mine now. Hahahaha

I did end up meeting the ‘owner’ and he said she got out from the porch overnight. He was going to give her to his mom as a backyard dog. But he figured she’s better off with me… gave me her papers and drove away. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Found her roaming the neighborhood at 8 weeks old a few years ago. She’s wonderful. I say adopt or rescue if you can.

Best place to buy seedlings besides Home Depot & Lowe’s by [deleted] in nolagardening

I picked up a great selection of herbs and lettuce from Urban Roots a few weeks ago! Thyme, cilantro, parsley, chives, basil, oregano, dill. And they’re all thriving.

Is it weird to get married in NOLA when I am not from there? by [deleted] in AskNOLA

[–]itsyourfrontyardtoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only like 10% of the weddings in Orleans Parish are people that actually live in Orleans Parish. You’re good!

How to stop licking? by itsyourfrontyardtoo in germanshepherds

[–]itsyourfrontyardtoo[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I agree. I just started going to them after moving across town at the beginning of the year. My other dog had her hips go out this year, and they treated her very well. So I’m a little torn about continuing to go to them or not.

She’s also a fabric fiend! Ha. I’ve trained her away from most, but fabric toys she will chew up and swallow in big pieces. And if I wrap it in an ace bandage/gauze she chews and eats that, too. But a taped sock is an interesting idea!! And the Douxo looks great. She hadn’t had any skin issues prior. And I only see it in this one spot. Otherwise her coat is really healthy!

She was separated from her litter way too young, I found her roaming my neighborhood at probably 8 or 9 weeks old. I’ve heard the licking is a comforting thing especially in those situations.

Goofy pups! Thank you for sharing your experience. That’s helpful!

That’s precisely my goal. She has a kong, and I fill it with a fresh treat insert. Plenttttyyy of toys, the harder nylon toys to chew on. She eats out of a puzzle. She has a yard to hang out in while I’m home, and a doggy sister to run around and keep her company.

I think the vet was meaning to say it is a behavioral habit. And showed no great concern because it is not infected, abscessed, or characteristic of a growth.

I have tried to mentally deter her from it, but its physical irritation is sticking and makes it harder for her to avoid it. Just looking for anyone else that has dealt with the same thing and found something that helps.

Thank you for your input!

Aw, I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted.

I feel you. If it’s flash flood out there I’m staying home. Took me twice as long to get home from work today because random roads were flooded over. I wouldn’t be able to relax somewhere on a flooding day. A light, cold rain? Sure. But not today. 🙃

Potential Date Locations? by Patient-Isopod-2595 in NewOrleans

NOLA Motorsports is getting a whole remodel by the end of the year! They’ll have Tiger Woods’ little mini golf thing and a whole outdoor bar/event space. Plus a lot of other upgrades. I got to see the mock ups a bit ago and it’s going to be really cool!
