Loving my Oldies

LOL. Evolving has to have it written in the contracts that we have to be regularly dated :provoke: :laugh.:

Never in a 100 years, Caz. What a gorgeous gorgeous boy ..... as is the rest of your pack. Look at the little girls waiting patiently on the outside.

OMG, how will you cope?

Edited.

Me too, No advice, just thoughts for you and your girl. Try to hold onto the fact that you are doing the right thing, even though it seems the most dreadful betrayal of the dog you love so dearly. She has a disease which will get worse and cause her pain and distress. :hug:

Too true on all counts My dogs are becoming due for their trip to the groomers and I can feel my tummy tightening with nervousness. I haven't been in since Buddy's tragedy, but I have to bite the bullet soon.

GO. GO. GO. Gracie

It is so wonderful to know that Ilka is well and happy. Her poor puppies - I guess we'll never know their fates.

Oh no!! Pick me! Pick me!

:love: Mr Cream seems to be a very serious young man.

Oh Nic, too much for you all to bear. Annie has been such an important part of your lives and an anchor for you all through your dad's suffering. God speed, sweet dog.

I'm on my way, bit of shopping first, then heading south. See ya later

It is cooler here than yesterday and the dogs had their first morning walk for ages . Unfortunately no rain yet . Gussy Cat seems to have come through it all okay, snoozing and eating and being visited by her Toy Boy. :D

Because the forecast is for a change and storms, I went out and mowed the lawns LOL: front, footpath and about half the back before I decided enough was enough. Few spots of rain, but nothing definite yet. Myrtie is quite calm so I am prepared for any storms to miss me . Drink lots of water with a pinch of sea salt in it.

Inside in the air conditioning all day - and it is struggling :( and dogs have access to house and yard at all times. I have water bowls inside which I check on through the day. If the dogs want a walk, they'll have to take themselves Myrtie is looking longingly through the sliding doors, but no way are we going out unless there is a change.

Waiting, waiting I love love love rough coat JRs. Look great and generally personality plus.

I imagine this was the case.

Dear me :laugh: :laugh:

WOW! That's pretty harsh. What evidence do you have for such a judgement? It's my opinion. What evidence do you have to call it harsh? It's your opinion. Stick to talking about rhe topic and refrain from criticising other posters. Otherwise it starts to seem like a personal attack, which is against forum rules. Nothing to do with a personal attack. I don't care who posted it. It was a harsh judgement without evidence - unless of course you have been consulted by the people . Perhaps you could have prefaced your remark by saying, "In my opinion ....". But you said straight out that it is all about ..... etc etc. And you were wrong as evidenced by TigerJack's story. That said, you could be right regarding some people's motives. Afterall, we see similar in some rescue groups who believe that all dogs should be saved. And I think if you'd bothered to read the rest of my post, I did say that I wouldn't put a dog through it, so I think was was obviously my opinion and evidence that I was sticking to talking about the topic.

I can get fresh raspberries here. Any reason why you would use frozen? Yep because I cant get them - fresh is good and much better if you can put them through a sieve and take out the lumpy bits if possible Ok thanks I will get fresh raspberries, sieve them and add them in his diet after a 24 hr fast. Didn't Persephone suggest just the chicken after the fast ? Your dog's tummy needs a break from all the different things you have been trying. You must be worried sick . Try to get your boy a bit settled and then perhaps seek out another vet, or a specialist. Although there are people like Persephone and Steve here on DOL whose knowledge and experience are vast.

WOW! That's pretty harsh. What evidence do you have for such a judgement? So, they are going to have to have a few wheel contraptions until the dog reaches full growth! I can understand people wanting to do this with a dog who has been a family pet for many years and has an accident or something happens to give it paralysis, but I wouldn't put a dog through it.

Pic please. Now common, mum. He has to check for crocodiles.

But, Megan, where would be the "fun" if people actually read what an OP said. Someone jumps in with a wild assumption and people following don't bother to check what has actually been said. Sad really, and leaves people feeling worse because they mistakenly thought that they could discuss a topic on this forum in a reasonable and mature manner.

well so be it, but to me you were just gathering ammunition to use against your partner . It's why my only advice was to talk to him. Of all the judgemental, leaping to conclusions !!!! G.S.P. came here to talk about a decision she has to make. She is going to discuss it with her partner and thought that maybe other people on a dog forum might have gone through the same situation and was wondering how they coped. I'm sorry people have been so judgemental, G.S.P. Unfortuately, that is what happens. So many people on this forum have never heard of or they chose to ignore the old saying: Play the ball not the man. I hope you and your partner manage to work things out amicably.

When you have the strength, hopefully we will have "Buddy's Law" or something similar. You and Buddy will never be forgotten.
