GA Tacoma Owners BS Thread

Yes GSMTR is the jam! I am only messing around because I know the organizers well and give them shit on another LC forum.
Your correct regarding the raffle; I won a winch with synth line one year. The next year I won some nice recovery stuff.

 

@Gilmorec61 when are you thinking about heading to windrock ?

 

Probably leaving out around 6-7am tomorrow

 

PSA for my own consciousness.

My dog started acting a little funny but didnt seem too bad and he had been good all day. I called the vet but they were booked and it didnt seem like an emergency. My wife is more paranoid than me and called our vet which we became friends with a few years ago through a long and difficult issue with my other dog. She is amazing and did a videochat with us.. Long story short she got us in to vet right away.. He is ok for now because they saved him but he had a softball size tumor on his spleen rupture. Internal bleeding would have likely not let him make it through the night otherwise. Emergency surgery removed his spleen and tumor now we're just hoping it was benign. Many of you might have seen my previous posts concerning dogs... This boy has been with us for almost ten years and is absolutely a part of our family. If anyone is around cobb area we whole heartedly recommend and give kudos to the

For amazingly staying late to save my dog to preform surgery.
And to the Cobb Emergency Vet just up the street off hwy 41 for taking great care of him overnight.

These types of things happen...Not trying to sound like I'm feeling sorry myself quite the contrary we are extremely grateful. The positive I take from it is trying to remembered perspective... look around and figure out what really matters in life. Put your investments (time money pain effort whatever)into those things... And we'll all be a lot happier.

I'll shut up now... Hopefully I just didn't steal time away from everyone... Feel like someone might need hear this/might be going through some trying times.

 

Nothing quite like finding the right doctors to take care of your loved ones (be it humans, dogs, cats, etc.). There's something to be said of those who truly understand what those loved ones mean to you and are willing to help as best possible. My catahoula recently shaved off a substantial part of an outer digital pad from something in our yard. I was able to email our vet directly with photos and she called in an antibiotic and recommendations for care and was replying to me within MINUTES of emailing her.

 

Cool dog! Just had to Google the breed but actually seem pretty similar to my brittanys.

 

He's my first Catahoula and definitely won't be my last. Incredible breed but certainly NOT for inexperienced owners as they will always try to be the household alpha. Hard working, highly intelligent, very protective, stubborn as hell, but an all-around amazing breed. Unfortunately too many people get them as they have a unique merle coat and sometimes heterochromic eyes and later realize the breed is WAY too much to handle.

 

Yeah buddy! I wish your pup a speedy recovery.

 

Thanks bro

ninja cat in the background... just waiting to get you... My dogs don't play well with anything furry and small enough to fit part their mouths...

 

My wife and I refer to small dogs as "popcorn dogs" as they'd be a snack for the Catahoula.

If y’all don’t know about this guys channel it’s awesome.

 

I’ve seen one of his videos. It was a solidly good watch.

 

Anyone have some trail recommendations in north Georgia (around lawrenceville within an hour or so) for a 2WD truck? Want to do some casual riding around on the weekends

 

My close buddy bought a ford 150 for work. He is in need of a toolbox, headache rack or a rack.

Let me know if you guys have any recommendations or something for sale.

 

Posted today in expo GA.

 

You should be able to do the main route up tray mountain in 2wd. Google high shoal falls. It's a couple pretty waterfalls that you can hike to that are off that trail.

 

Thanks for mentioning this, now I'm planning a trip out there for my birthday next week lol

 

Is that a FB thing?

 

I drove my old prerunner up there, no problems. Hiking the AT between unicoi, indian grave and tray gaps is pretty fun too.
