The new pup, Blue, has been very lethargic for the past few days. Have been very worried. Went to see the vet, today, and he thinks she's having some growing pains in her back legs. She's in that 14 to 15 week window where there's usually a big growth spurt. Her gait looked a little off to him. Still eats like a horse, no fever, stools are normal. Put her on some prescription wet food high in B vitamins. We'll see. She went from being Wonder Woman to being an old lady in the past few days. Fingers crossed.

I saw your Blue on Craigs List a couple of weeks ago and we were considering trying to get her too, but the timing isn't right yet since we are about to go on vacation.  Hope she perks back up....beautiful pup.  After our trip we'll be looking to bring a dog back into the family.  Lost both of ours summer of '16 (16 yr old lab and sick Pomeranian) and it finally feels right to start over.

 

Stan is not having a bad summer.

Turns out Blue hurt her back wrestling with the 60 pound basset mix, AKA "The Caterpillar Tank". Kennel rest and pain meds. 

The family is gone for a few days, so instead of lounging on his bed or the couch, he lays between me and the front door like the good guard dog he thinks he is. Does this any time it's just me and him. [emoji173]ab5941c8607563341c7a481e9cc33d44.jpg

Murphy looks either sad or concentrating really intensely. Can't tell but a great photo just the same.

Duke, the golden doodle is here for a visit.

So the original owner that gave him to us asked me on Tuesday if we’d give him back because she missed him and loved him so much. Said she felt like she made a terrible decision to give him up. She took him back yesterday afternoon. The wife cried a lot. If I didn’t work with the woman I would have been a lot more of an asshole to her. 

Ended up getting him back again. Six months old now and 60 lbs.

Give her credit for bringing him back to you.

I'm sure it would have been less embarrassing to give him to someone else.

Congratulations - Good looking pup.

 

Blue is back to normal. She has bonded with Penny.

Have you flipped a paper football through the uprights yet?  My dad has a dobbie.  Great dogs.

Remington has turned from buffoon into full blown guard dog courtesy of the latest addition to the household.  He won't let the baby out of his sight and sits by the door to the room she's in if it's closed.  He may be dumb, but he's great with the girls.

Yep.  The first thing I did after I posted them.  Missed and hit him in the nose.  It’s always a moving target. He is a great dog.

We welcomed this lady into the family this week. Named her June. ccfc0fff967ce1471efe561445559e36.jpgd4d3b2fd0be946b83b94a96d18242be2.jpg
I don’t know why my wife put our son’s hair in rubber bands. I don’t ask.

You sure she hasn't been hanging with your crazy neighbor?

Y’all get some passive aggressive bitches sometimes? Carly bugs me for an hour to go on walk. I go to my truck to get something, invite her out to take a piss or whatever. She stands just inside the door and stares at me.

Blue finally back to being a full-on puppy. Played non-stop out in this crazy heat and just now settled down. Welcome back, girl.4fd6a05fa6b1724cce78976e362cce34.jpg

I finally get to join the thread soon -- wife picked out a lab and we pick it up next week.

I haven't had a dog since I was a kid, and all our dogs were entertaining but poorly behaved dipshits, though it didn't matter because we lived out in the sticks  Do y'all have any good resources (books, youtube, whatever) on basic dog and owner training to start off on the right foot/paw?

I'm anticipating that the most difficult part will be to get our 13yo and 10yo boys on the same page with us, since our attempts at their human male obedience training have been largely futile.

Crate your kids, and have the lab walk them at least 2 times a day.

Look at this as an opportunity to start shitting in random parts of the house and blaming it on the dog.

my wife when the dog farts, inches from her:  awww poor baby, you must have digestive problems, im gonna get you your favorite organic food tomorrow

my wife when i fart, even from a different room:  THATS DISGUSTING CANT YOU GO TO THE BATHROOM OR STEP OUT ON THE BALCONY

Maybe you should learn to fart like a dog.

Edgar has always been a really heavy chewer - took us forever to find toys he wouldn't tear up in a few minutes and that didn't give him tummy issues like those roasted bones. These water buffalo horns are his favorite toy now. They last forever -months- even though he chews on them all the time. I've even caught him sleeping on them like pillows.

It was a special trip and we are ready to go back. Sadie and Dobbs are very special to us.

We have already booked a 10 day trip in May to St Augustine Florida for them. I could tell Sadie was bummed today being back in the real world. I might take them swimming tonight. 

Blue back from two days at the doggy hospital. Has a liver shunt, where a vein is directing blood flow around the liver, instead of through it. Surgery soon.

She needs to pull up her left sock.

my brother had the same issue with his dachshund pup. Did the surgery and all is well.

On the old site, I mentioned I was looking for a new boarding place for Carly because I needed a last minute Christmas reservation when our plans changed. 

A member gave me a tip about a new place, and it has been awesome. Pups & Pals Pet Lounge. We have boarded Carly exclusively there since then. The staff there is awesome, and they post pics on FB every day of all dogs playing in the yard. (or, in the case of Carly, chililng out and judging all the idiots running around.) Great for you and your family to see them when you are on vacation.

They are opening a new location in SW Austin at 290/1826 in October. They just closed on the property and are building it out. I highly recommend it.

Yeah, not looking forward to finding out the cost of that surgery.

My pup is approaching one year old, but we got Nationwide Pet Insurance for the first year.  It reimburses 90% of costs.  It is like $70 a month, but I know her spay procedure was around $600 alone.  It doesn't make sense for the long term obviously, but the first year it worked out extremely well for us.

$600 for a spay? Holy hell. I'm assuming by your username those are NYC prices. I paid less than $150.

One of our Corgis had a liver shunt. The dude was just miserable all of the time and rarely looked up. Got the surgery and he’s happy as hell now.
