No need for an alarm this week as I have had two furry friends reminding me when it's time for breakfast

Desperately trying not to quote Mrs Slocombe from 'Are You Being Served' to this post!

(this comment would only make any sense to people who lived in the UK in the 1970s)!

I got this gorgeous grey baby seal as my bestie today, currently warming my feet whilst I set up WFH and as it goes everyday.

No joke my previous boss looked like a hairless cat.

This French Bulldog is going to the be death of me.

Housebreaking him has been a challenge. Doesn't help that has chronic UTIs.

Last week he was peeing on the floor again. Great, my first thought is another goddamn UTI.

He rolled over for a belly rub and I notice two masses on either side of his penis just posterior to the base.

Wait, that's weird, he's fixed. and it's too high…?!?

Crap, he must have a lymph node blockage or he's backed up because of a urethral blockage. Probably not cancer because it's bilaterally symmetrical. Also, came out of nowhere, he didn't have those yesterday.

Wife rushes him to the vet, who proceeds to laugh at her uncontrollably.

Apparently they're glands that swell up to keep him locked in place when he meets "a special friend."

I miss my Rottweiler.

I miss my Rottweiler.

I feel you. Losing a pet is terrible… it like losing a family member.

Having a dog arriving in the next few weeks. What does everyone feed? I know the science/pros around raw.. but it doesn't seem viable/practical as we have a small freezer; I almost feel guilty when looking at high-end air dried food..

[DougNg]

We use the Victor brand and food with great success. What breed?

[QuantumMechanic]

@shego we have been feeding our older dog, Berkeley, who’s now 10 with raw and a handful of kibble that is made locally. Berkeley was allergic to most things, but not with raw. We’re using the same approach with our little pup.

If you decide on kibble make sure you try to avoid ones with pea protein or ones that use very little…it effects the animals taurine uptake and can lead to heart issues.

This is my golden rule: food is not like medicine it is medicine. In other words, buy the best possible food you can and avoid the vet.

What kind of puppers are you getting?

[DougNg]

If you want to go raw but are low on freezer space, we’ve used freeze dried raw from “the honest kitchen.” Mostly I keep it around as emergency food for times like these where it may be hard to get dog food. Chewy.com is sold out of a lot of stuff
