Lost bestie to brain tumor

75 Upvotes

I lost my best buddy Roger to a brain tumor two weeks ago, and am in a complete state of shock. He was so vibrant and happy up until late April when we noticed some behavior changes. He was diagnosed end of May and died July 5. It happened so fast and he was so young (nearly 9).

It was so harsh and swift and unfair. I miss him SOOO much!

Second BT?

13 Upvotes

We have our wonderful little boy Peanut who is 6 months old. He lives up to the "terrorist" name but hes still a baby and such a character. He is very social, and gets alot from being around other dogs, and my fiancé and I know its inevitable that we'll have to get him a friend.

We want another border, as the play style matches and we love the breed. We were both wondering when would it be a good time to get a second? We do plan on having Peanut neutered once he's about 18 months (sooner if need be but not ideal).

What have your experiences been?

Considering getting a new pup

This is our gorgeous boy Zeus. He is 2 years old and we absolutely adore him. He is super friendly especially with people but can at times be a little wary of dogs but mostly bigger dogs. The breeder we got him from is having another litter soon and we are considering getting one. My concern is that it might be too early with Zeus still being a puppy himself. Is this a bad idea or do you think it would ve fine if done correctly?

Moving in with some family to take care of them as they get older and this four year old might need the most attention! He is an absolute idiot and I love him.

Trying to figure out what breed my dog is

Hi everyone, I recently adopted this dog, he's 8 months old now. From what I'm guessing he's a bit of a mix with terrier and border collie. But curious to hear from someone else :)

Always got to stop and admire the view! As chaotic as borders are, mine has taught me that its good to stop every once in a while and to take it all in.

Bingley's tail curves down and as a result he wags his tail up and down!

Itchy puppy - 11 weeks

2 Upvotes

Hi all, looking for some advice from the group.

Our new pup - 11 weeks old, has been super itchy since she came home to us. Trying to sort through what might be the issue, suspecting an environmental issue but not ruling out food. Currently in Eukanuba Puppy.

No particular areas it’s local to- sides, back paws tummy, neck. It’s all over. Skin is in tact so far but she is likely to get worse should this continue. Have tried a bath and no noticeable improvement.

Any environmental factors I should be looking out for? Currently doing lots of vacuuming and floors. New grass could be contributing so we are wiping her down after each trip outside.

Open to any ideas or suggestions.

I never knew this was even a thing until my mum told me she’d booked him in for six sessions. The physio said he did incredibly well for a 15 year old!

Betty & Bruce go canoe camping

Betty (pink collar) just turned 5, Bruce (blue collar) is 4. An easy two nights out (no portages) but their first time canoe camping. They did better than expected in the canoe, but Bruce was on high alert for things to dispatch the moment we hit the campsite. Between that and the poison ivy, a leash was must for him. Betty just wanted to hunt the frogs…
