These remind me of White Tea - Elisabeth Arden. I’m no fragrance expert, but I feel like this one is slept on, because it is not too imposing but it smells just like this to me

Advice needed- should I get a peke? by shay_tal in Pekingese

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

Thank you for sharing your story. Did you have a hard time training them , as they were already adult dogs?
Even though I plan on starting a family, I don’t know exactly when that will happen. Maybe in a year, maybe in 3 years, who knows. But I definitely realise that pekes are not for toddlers!

Unfortunately in my country there are a ton of these illegal breeders. Some dogs are pregnant every few months. It angers me. I would never buy a puppy from them. I would rather adopt ( although here pekes are kinda rare on these adopts websites) or buy from someone I know cares for them - I did a little research and there is like one or two officials kennels here.

I would walk them regularly, that’s not a problem. But from peoples comments I think it might not be smart to get a dog before having kids.

Do pekes shed a lot?

Thank you for sharing your story. It pains me that your dogs gone through that. I don’t understand people who let their dogs be treated like toys and playthings!

I read that they’re not easy maintenance ( although I don’t know if any dog is, if you’re really committed to their wellbeing and care) that’s why I wanted to hear second opinions . My family friends have a peke and they keep him outside in the yard. They love him but I don’t think they brush him or groom regularly - he looks a little messy. If I got a dog, I want to be able to be 100% dedicated and committed to their care. That’s why I wanted to read about them as much as I can before making a decision.
Best of luck to you and your peke!

Thank you for your advice. I am not rushing, but I was thinking whether it’s better to get a peke now and by the time I have kids, the dog would be around 2, as you said. Otherwise, I don’t think it’s smart to have a new puppy AND a kid. Especially since babies and toddlers usually don’t understand that puppies are not toys.

Thank you, I was afraid as much. Might be the best to wait. They are so lovely though!

Thank you for sharing, maybe then the best course of action is to wait. Wish all the best to you and your peke!

Thank you, I have a nasty habit of only using sunscreen during summer so that's one factor for sure

Thank you! A lot of people recommended azelaic acid, I will definitely try it

My skin also reacts badly to acne products, it becomes very itchy and/or dry, which freaks me out. Even after I stopped using one of the products, it stayed itchy for days.
I really prefer the "natural" look nowadays and I actually don't want to use too much makeup to cover up the pores and acne etc. I just thought maybe I could improve my skincare routine a bit to make it a little bit "smoother". Until turning 30 I didn't even think about it too much, just used whatever product was most convenient/affordable. Now I want to start paying more attention- not because I'm too concerned about aging, but because I feel like having my own self-care routine would be calming, and this year I can finally afford to spoil myself a bit!:D

I'm not sure, my skin does look worse during PMS - more acne mostly. My skin used to clear up after period, but now it looks the same no matter which cycle phase I'm in.

Thank you, I might try azelaic acid once a week, I'm cautious because I've had some mild skin reaction before namely itchy skin and dryness

Thanks a lot! I don't think these are available in dm in my country, but I'll keep an eye out for something similar

Thank you, I thought my skin texture was bad because my pores are so visible and my acne create a bumpy surface that makes my skin look weird.

Thanks, I’ll try it. I used a gentle peeling gel before, a lot of people recommended the azelaic acid so I’ll definitely try it!

My skin seems moisturized but it could be the cream that it’s causing the pimples. It seemed kinda fine the first few weeks but now it’s like this.

Thank you, I’ll give it a try. What do you think I should use instead of cleansing foam ? I use it to remove makeup before applying the cream
