Let's See Your Dogs!!

FTFY

 

Since Sky is getting older, Gladys spends a lot of time with her. Sky is the Saint Bernard. Gladys is the beagle Bassett.

 

You can't fool me. I saw you on Men In Black.

 

Well, broke a nail down to the pad but we're not letting that keep us from our favorite sleeping position.

 

"Hey. What are you doing down there"?

 

Did someone say nutter butter ?

 

"Hello. I am bored."

 

Bad day at the vet lol.

 

This is one of the reasons socialization is so important. Getting pups used to people touching them or cleaning ears Or taking temps. Etc.

Which isn't to say a lack of socialization is why your pup bit the vet.

 

I totally agree. Socialization is key. Training them is another one too.
I always taught my dogs during puppy stage to not bite humans. Even during play when pups are excited and nip, I always grabbed their bottom jaw and tongue while holding it and saying "no biting". Dogs hate when you hold their jaw. They learn that biting is bad for them.
By doing this, I never had a dog that bit someone.

 

No napping is permitted in our house without the supervision of a dog.

 

My Australian shepherd Toby yesterday during our run

 

Took this pic of Guido today

 

She is very socialized. For some reason the new vet tec was insisting on being her friend and when the vet stuck her with a rabies vacc the tec was in her face. I think it scared her mainly.

 

Socialization is good. Rescues are funny (and not ha ha either).

I always warn the vet techs that Lucy will bite the crap out of them, and to get me a muzzle for her. The last one was all "aw, this sweetie wouldn't bite me!"

I told her to check the chart. She did...and got the muzzle. Ironically, Lucy was calm this last time, so it's clear that she is getting better. The heartworm treatments sort of inured her to the vet so while she doesn't like it, she doesn't get all wound up either. She has significant trust issues, so I really wonder what she went through before we rescued her.

She's great with kids, and gets along well with other dogs...that she knows. She does not like strangers in any capacity, and it takes about an hour for her to get used to new people. Once she adds you to her "circle of trust" she will be all over you for love.



She's the big one on the right. The little one is Kiki, and loves absolutely everybody. Both rescues.

Rescues are funny.

 

Built a dog platform for the truck thanks to @rab89

Look at this sack of shit. Also, look at the dog.



Need more supplies. Road trip!



Waiting...



Done!



You're welcome, jackass.





Tough day.

 

Cool!

How does that lead clip onto the receiver? Is there a hook or something or did you just tie off?

 

Tied it off. Thinking about creating something less half-assed for it...assuming that it hasn't been done already.

 

Chillin' after a busy day!
