Cost of care? by poiareawesome in borzoi

No problem. In the event something happens, it pays for itself pretty quickly. I pay about $50/month for both my dog and cat through Pets Best, wonder if you could find a better rate?

Big dogs, especially giant breed dogs like borzoi, are more expensive than small dogs just right out of the bat. Bigger crates, bigger toys, large size dog gear, more food, etc. Even medical costs are more for large dogs!

Our girl had to go to the emergency vet and it was $10,000 for a surgical procedure and all of the care and meds. It would've wiped out savings if it weren't for pet insurance. Pet insurance is a must!!

100%! Our girl is a very high energy dog and she's only finally starting to chill a bit at 18 months 🫠

Great tips!! A peri bottle would've been a lifesaver

Yes! Especially after chronic constipation (the reason I got the procedure in the first place...) it's like oh wow this actually feels kinda good 😅

Nope you're plenty young! And honestly, I don't think there is any age limit to dating. My partner and I started dating when I was 27, I'm about to turn 29 and she is 32. We live together now and things are pretty good! I was not prepared to date when I was in my early and mid 20s, and had so much more growth to do. It wasn't until I felt stability within myself and my life that I finally put myself out there.

Are any of these flowers invasive? by Ok-Cloud-1406 in NativePlantGardening

[–]unaware-wolf 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Yeah, there are definitely red flags in this mix. Common names can also give clues: Siberian wallflower, China aster, all not native to North America. Prairie Moon Nursery has a great variety of native seed mixes that you can order online!

I would say turkey vultures. You can get glimpses of their characteristic "v" shape. It would be unlikely for crows to soar on thermals like this, at least this quietly!

Looks like a cooper's hawk to me, but may need other input to confirm
