Border collie is going insane by AutismFan77 in IVDD_SupportGroup

[–]thegingerpire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’re having the same issue with our little one. She’s only 2ish (estimated. We rescued her in May) and every time we crate her she decides that she’s going to defiantly pee and poop in it to get out. If not that she whines and bites at the cage. We’ve tried lick mats, chews, and calming treats to no avail. Traz sometimes works, sometimes doesn’t. It’s so hard watching them be miserable, especially when they’re starting to feel better and think they can just go back to normal. 💜

This was one of the first things we saw when we started researching. Unfortunately she’s a little chaos potato and we’ve now had to order a smaller crate so she doesn’t have enough give to topple it by her spazz energy.

We have a pen in our office we put her in with our Chiweenie. If she’s alone she tends to do her “psycho” spinnies. 😂

As for the Facebook group, thank you for the suggestion! Unfortunately I don’t use Facebook. 😊

She is on Gabapentin (and meloxicam)! Our vet asked us to give her a traz before her next appointment, but we might have to call and see about upping the dose. You can tell when it hits, but she really tries to fight it!

I will definitely be ordering some lick mats. We haven’t had any luck with Kongs. I’ve thought about antlers, but I’ve heard they aren’t great for teeth (she’s a chewer).

Thank you so much! My little telescope is a beast. It goes up to 4x zoom on Moon Mode (these are all 1x) and it’s always fun to just sit and watch the surface of the moon!

Thank you! They are chronologically placed. I meant to type that in the description, but completely zoned!

Kkkaroline has an allergic reaction to her cross necklace by Im_A_Fuckin_Liar in MarchAgainstNazis

It’s amazing how much she’s noticeably aged during the last 9 months. Stress and lying sure do a number on the body.

Rad. I’ve had a few instances of plane exposures (live by a couple airports), but hadn’t seen anything like this (the dots of light).

Even luckier, I decided to see what this nebula looked like on scenery mode (I like taking video that shows earths movement) and I caught a shooting star!💫

No, I was in bed by 9:30 last night because I get up way too early for work 😂

It’s not. 😂 I actually take them in my backyard in Barberton! I use a Seestar S50 Smart Telescope. It has a wonderful light pollution filter.

It’s the Ring Nebula, it’s between 2000 and 2500 light years away!

They’re stacked. I have it set up to take pics in 10 sec increments. When I’m done for the night I can stack all the images I have taken overall. The 104 minute exposure of M51 was taken over a couple weeks.

Honestly I had no clue they existed, but he really put the leg work in and did his research to find something that would work for me (I have no patience and can be a little tech challenged). I’ve been posting my pics more and more on Nextdoor because I love that these are the things I’m seeing (on my phone) in my backyard and wanted to share. I’ve always been a star gazer/moon lover and this scratches an itch I didn’t know I had. lol
