  1. Dandi will have many loving companions to greet him, and he will never know pain or fear again. But, I understand your worry about sending him away alone, without you. Fletcher was such a velcro dog I worried about him feeling like I had abandoned him when I had to let him go. I just kept telling him over and over that I would never leave him, I would always be with him, and after he was gone, I realized that was true. We were physically separated, but the connection was still there. I will never stop missing him, but I am still with him, and he is with me. It will be that way for you and Dandi, too. sorry if there are errors, typing this has brought it all back and my vision is pretty blurry
  2. My heart sank when I read that praying for it to be dermal!
  3. I am so sorry, he sounds like he was a very special boy
  4. so happy to hear the pretty girl is doing well!
  5. Awesome! Some dogs really do see the cats in their house as just part of the furniture, as it were. Looks like Gracie is one of those! Don't forget, though, when you are walking, it might be a different story. Most dogs differentiate between their house cats and outdoor cats they don't know (still may not be aggressive)
  6. What a horrible thing! It is, indeed all or worst nightmares I am so very sorry
  7. Well, if that happened in my house, I would definitely be ready to remove the muzzle! I would still be cautious at night and when you are not home (although they probably both sleep the whole time you are gone), only because Gracie is so new, but I really think you have a very cat tolerant dog
  8. That is a fantastic update! Never heard of a dog with LS actually improving, but what your vet said/did makes sense.
  9. That is sweet! I think Bella could jump the baby gate if she wanted to ( she's a cat, right ) but probably wouldn't if she is used to staying with you. Forgot to add, even with my paranoia about the cats, I never muzzled my dogs, even the first one, after the first day. I just separated them when I was gone and at night in the beginning.
  10. I stopped using pork necks, even though they are cheap, because if they are whole, they take forever to eat, and if they are cut up (how you usually see them) the edges are too sharp for my comfort. They are mostly bone, so you would want to give more meat, either with them, or at the other meal of the day. Same with lamb necks (except for the cheap part!)
  11. I understand about being nervous with Bella, I was with my first greyhound & cats. Keeping the muzzle on for a while longer is a good idea, but I think she will be fine. Bella's attitude has helped a lot, not being afraid of the dog. Someday you may be one of the lucky ones, posting a picture of Grace and Bella sharing a bed
  12. Well, that is weird, but whatever works!
  13. Oh, lucky you! I had a poop eater (only his own, luckily) None of the add-ins worked, although I got a laugh out of some of the testimonials. I mean, think about it, something to add to their food to make poop taste bad? Immediate pick up and/or stool guard are the only things that worked for me. After awhile, he seemed to lose interest and only snacked occasionally
  14. She is really coming out of her shell! I didn't realize she was so young, definitely still a puppy I understand about wanting to protect your stuff, putting it in the cat's room is a good idea (as long as Bella leaves them alone!), but you will enjoy watching her play with her stuffies so much
  15. I am so very sorry! Each one we lose leaves such a hole in our life, but your first, there is a special pain for that
  16. I am so very sorry. I know she leaves a huge hole in your heart.
  17. She is making excellent progress! She has only been with you, two days? Gracie sounds like a quick learner
  18. Technical question for you medical types. Are there things that can be seen in an x-ray that don't show up in an ultrasound? I know you can see things in the ultrasound that don't show up x-rays, but how about the other way around?
  19. Dayton was a very handsome boy I love the seniors as well, they are special!
  20. Pretty much what she said ^ My first grey was shy and timid. She was returned from her first home because she wouldn't potty on leash, and they didn't have fenced back yard. The key is patience, especially in the beginning. She will come around once she settles in. You will be surprised, looking back, how quickly. (even though may seem like forever at the time )
