Let's See Your Dogs!!

samson is a rescue, I adopted him at about 2 years old from the local pound. He was the only GSD that wasn’t aggressive or scared. He walked right up to the gate to say hello to me. That was it, he went home with me.

Samson loves squeaky toys, he has too many of them. Sometimes the squeaker becomes dislodged inside the ball and he walks around carrying in his mouth looking sad cause it won’t squeak. But he still squeezes it.

 

Happy Easter!

 

My little boy has tennis balls that squeak. He normally will destroy the ball from squeezing the ball squeaking it before the squeaker stops working.

 

Santino in the back of my 2006 Tacoma. He had a daily ride for many many years. Most often with the rear window in the up position.

 

She looks stoned. Just woke up from a nap in the truck.

 

hope its not second hand smoke LOL

 

I've never generated the first hand smoke, so I think she's safe. Now after a Taco Bell visit is another story.

 

Our lovely little Piper apparently found an Amenita mushroom in my yard yesterday. Very deadly to humans and animals. She started showing signs of something being wrong such as stumbling around and tremors. Rushed her to an emergency vet where they asked if she could have gotten any marijuana, mushrooms or anti freeze. My answer was no. So after leaving her at the vet to begin treatments for some sort of poisoning, I went home to inspect my yard, that’s where I found the culprit…the amentia was by my shop, the only one I’ve seen on the property in the 12 plus years living there. So I called the vet and they immediately started a dialysis and blood transfusion. I’m happy to say about 30 hours later she’s beat the odds and has survived and her liver is functioning normally. She should have zero side effects. Originally she was given a 20% survival chance but I couldn’t not get her treatment…she’s home tonight acting like a typical 4 month old pup.

 

Great info, had no idea, hopefully on the mend

 

I’ve only ever seen the Amenita in the woods around here. Really scary but she’s home and certainly seems to be recovering very well thankfully! Thank you!

 

Well, by Sunday we will have 5 Stafford shire terrier puppies if all goes as planned.
First & probably only litter for her.
Breeder gets pick of the litter, chick is hoping for 1 show quality dog out of the litter & all others are already spoken for & a waitlist...
She did end-up finishing her championship, & has 2 out of the 3 majors needed for grand champion...

 

Scary!! Glad to hear little Piper is doing better!

 

No more cone. And loving the Frisbee.

 

Thank you! She got her dialysis catheter out last night and another liver function check and her numbers continue to go down which is what we are wanting! The vet thinks we caught it in time to have no long term side effects! Thankfully this ER opened up about a year ago and they’re the only ones close that do dialysis and blood transfusions and that’s exactly what she needed!

 

Today's field training was interesting. Kinda like Whack-a-Mole with a couple of sprinklers...something must be broken. Anyway, couple of big muddy puddles. When we left, Kimo was pretty muddy.

 

I still haven’t figured out how this is a comfortable position for the pup. Maybe he’s broken…

 

Not any fun, 2 out, 3 more to go…
It’s been about 1 - 1.5 hours between pups….
#3, seems like its taking FOREVER....
First pup was out at 430’ish….
