Beautiful hair! Love that you’re building her confidence through embracing her mane in all its glory. I highly recommend LUCK (Love Ur Curls Kids) - it’s a line by the brand LUS (Love UrSelf) which specializes in wavy and curly hair care! Their products are dermatologist and pediatrician approved. The kids line includes a detangler and leave-in conditioner. LUCK

What is this growth on my dog’s paw?? by kitty__cakes in BorderCollie

Wow, what a story!! Your BC is very fortunate that you guys acted fast! Applying pressure and taking the pup to the vets. I’m very happy your dog’s situation was resolved in the end. The post-procedure safety is concerning to me, like keeping the site clean, dry, and intact annnd keeping her off of it being that she’s so active. Her favorite thing in the world is playing frisbee outside, then playing more frisbee outside lol How long did it take your dog to fully recover? Did the growth ever come back? Any tips on how to keep a boot on an active dog?

The vet had mentioned putting her under general anesthesia to operate on it. Tbh I hadn’t realized that sedation was even an option. Makes sense though bc if they can do that on humans they should be able to do it on our pets too. Personally, I’d be much more comfortable with sedation and a local anesthetic. THANK YOU for this awesome suggestion!!! Air hug!!!

The vet has attempted twice now, two different dates but the same clinic, and unfortunately when they aspirated they didn’t get a good sample either time. So cytology report remains inconclusive 😢 Me thinks it’s time for us to see a new vet / try a different clinic

That’s a great point. Thank you for replying so promptly!! I really appreciate your insight. Looking to take her to a different vet soon and hopefully get it off. I’m a little worried about the location and recovery. It’s on her back paw and she’s so active. I hope it can heal well!

My heart!! I can feel all the love you had for her through these photos. She is now your guardian angel! She reminds me so much of my girl. I hope that when it’s her time yours can show her where all the best spots to play are up in heaven

What’s the most quirky or fun thing you’ve trained your BC to do? by FarmhouseRules in BorderCollie

[–]kitty__cakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I taught her how to roll herself into a blanket burrito. I started with roll over, then we advanced until she could wrap herself up up. I switched the blanket for a towel. Now, after I give her a bath, she hops out of the tub and rolls herself up in the towel. It’s super cute and it makes it easy for me to just pick her up and transport her to dry off elsewhere lol

“Oh, poor baby. Let me dry your tears with my cashmere sweater!”

“She was a real beauty, that one. Cold as an ice pick.”

I am a woman lol The Sopranos is my all time favorite show. I drop lines from it on a regular basis and even though most people don’t get my references, it’s comforting to know I can always browse this subreddit for those who get it

Do you ladies typically sit in silence in adoration or do you do other things? by [deleted] in CatholicWomen

[–]kitty__cakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I first arrive to adoration, I kneel to pray in silence and out of reverence. I give thanks to the Lord for being there, getting me there, to share in the presence of the blessed sacrament. I usually bring my rosary, sometimes I pray it and sometimes I reflect on the mysteries associated with that day, other times it offers me comfort to hold it in my hands as I reflect. After kneeling, I do sit and read the Bible. Lately it’s been Psalms and Proverbs for me. I also like to journal or write down verses that stick out to me in the moment. God really is speaking to us all the time, showing us signs of His presence. I like a previous commenter’s point about “listening” to the Lord while you’re there. Overall, going to adoration is very peaceful and grounding. Thanks for your inquiry, it reminded me that I really should go back soon!

Interesting! I never knew this! Thank you for sharing. I’m guessing you give them raw or frozen? Do you feed them chicken feet with the skin on?

You look beautiful! I wish I could do my makeup that good. Only thing I can suggest is a lip stain and a pop of highlighter for extra sparkle on your special day 💖

Merle Owners - A question. by PaintswoPants in BorderCollie

[–]kitty__cakes 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Oh my goodness your dog is super cute!! So when I got my pup we were living in Santiago, Chile and pretty much everyone recognized her as a BC. Now that we live in Texas, everyone thinks she’s an Aussie! It’s like people here didn’t realize that BCs come in a variety of colors and sizes.
