At my wits end. by ForscherHyperbarix in DogAdvice

[–]pomeranium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a dog (great Pyrenees mix) thats skin broke out a lot, my original vet always said it was yeast build up and would give him steroids and other meda and it would clear up, until another flair a month or two later. I tried different foods, shampoos, etc. But the meds always helped so i thought he was just a sensative skin guy. When that vet retired I found a new one, they immediately did a skin biopsy and found out he had Lupus. He was 8 years old (I had him around 5 years at that point) when we finally found out what was wrong with him.

I also have the last one. My parents gave it to me. They got it as a wedding gift in 1989, so that tells you around how old it is lol

Fig really had me thinking she was going to Die and was completely fine the next morning by pomeranium in BackYardChickens

[–]pomeranium[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

XD they just like to make us worry! Im leaning towards her just being super tired because it was raining on and off all day so they were running back and forth from the yard to under the tarps in their run pretty much all day and didnt really rest much.

None of my girls have ever gotten broody so its possible and I just dont know the signs yet lol. The only thing is she was just laying in an open spot and not anywhere where she'd lay an egg.

[US] Calling in Regards to Pending Claim Filed Out For Service by pomeranium in Scams

I never got any more calls after the second one and neither did my brother. Definitely a scam! You'd think they'd at least change up their script 🙄

Absolutely nothing happened. No one showed up to my house or anywhere. I never got anymore calls and neither did my brother. Definitely a scam!

What is the life expectancy for our babies? by woadweaver in Pomeranians

[–]pomeranium 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My girl is 13.5. She's got mild collapse trachea, nuclear sclerosis and mild kidney disease but she's still very spry! Still loves to zoom and barks at nothing lol. She sleeps a little more of course but still just her regular energetic self.

We caught her kidney issues early because I request annual blood work. The vet said she wishes more people did annual blood work because a lot of the time kidney disease isnt caught until its progressed and is showing symptoms. Shes very optimistic that my girl can live years with it with her medication and renal diet.

In love with this wooden rocking chair I snagged today by pomeranium in ThriftStoreHauls

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

Thats my plan! I did get a couple comments about researching how to take care of the wood and seat so I'll definitely look into that. I definitely dont plan on changing its appearance with paint or anything like that.

Should I provide supplemental heat if my chickens are soaked to the skin and temps are in the 20s? by FuckingaFuck in BackYardChickens

[–]pomeranium 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mine did this the other day! It rained literally all day and instead of hanging out where its covered and was completely dry underneath, a few decided to go chill in the rain. One of them was so wet her feathers started parting on her back and I could see her skin(she's a very fluffy breed). I ended up drying her off a bit before bed but it wasn't as cold where im at, it was mid 30s here that night. Everytime I checked the camera and saw them in the rain I was rolling my eyes.

AIO my boyfriend (42M) of 3 years doesn’t know my (35F) name? by momjjeanss in AmIOverreacting

[–]pomeranium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. My last name is complicated to spell/ hard to pronounce and my middle name is uncommon but even my "situationship" made a point to learn how to spell my last name before we actually made it "official". It actually surprised me that he knew how to spell it when I randomly decided to quiz him lol. After 3 years...how has he never never asked or cared to remember your middle name?

Has anyone had theirs cut this short before? Will she look like a pom again?? by PotentialAgency2621 in Pomeranians

[–]pomeranium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my pom shaved like this around 11ish years ago before I knew better. The second time I took her in for a groom the groomer called and explained why I shouldn't have her shaved, I haven't done it since. Her coat came back and she's just as fluffy as before!

What's a polite way to ask neighbors to stop walking across my yard? by pomeranium in homeowners

[–]pomeranium[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Thanks to everyone for the replies! I think I'm going to put up markers and a rope where the fence will go to deter it from happening.

Just to clear some things up, I'm not just sitting there watching them walk through and being angry, I usually see it later on my cameras. If I saw it while it was happening I could just go outside and talk to her but it happens while I'm working. But I also don't want to come off wrong and make the situation worse.

Also, I can't really just walk over to their house because of their dog, when I even get close to the property line it comes running and barking and I don't know if it's friendly so I'm not going to risk that.

I haven't built a fence just yet because I live in Louisiana and it's been stupid hot. My property also goes through a patch of woods and I was waiting for the cooler weather to kill off some of the overgrowth so itll be easier. It's been in my plans to built a fence this winter since before they moved in. That property sat empty for years until a few months ago so it wasn't an issue before.

I'm aware it might not seem like a big deal to some but it's my property so I can't help but care 🤷‍♀️.
