This is our girl, Kassie, well really she's more my dog than my wife's.

She's 11 and still going strong. As our first Samoyed, she really set the stage for our love of the breed and then what followed as we added to the pack. We learned about how loving, intelligence, but stubborn the breed can be in the first couple of years with her.

You know, Ohio's right around the bend...if you need to borrow an extractor of a 4 legged kind.

When it does finally go through...it's nice to have though.

Got 90%+ back on second round of teeth too, so net cost for his cleaning and 25 extractions and medicine was well under $500. Now they will probably jack up our rates when it next renews for get their money back, but happy for now.

We call that a "working cat", one that's earning its cat food.

Yeah, that's a well-known fact, as evidenced by our posting seconds apart!

What do you mean, choose 1? Hugo our Patterdale terrier

Poor boy had gastropexy, rear toes removed, and apparently the nut sack is somehow missing as well. 3 weeks - cone of shame. Feel so bad for him

Currently drugged out of his mind.

Sorry for him.

Why the rear toes? Am I missing something?

It's the high upper ones on the back paw (with the claw). Typically breeders remove these when the pups are born...but for some reason, this breeder did not. Thus, they get removed when 'the boys' get removed. Not really a big deal, they were just kind of dangling there...

R BMW · 05-05-2023, 04:39 PM

Instead of the cone, we used a baby onesie. Made our girl get around easier.

Just to cover the incisions? Not sure I understand...

R BMW · 05-06-2023, 10:32 AM

Yes it covered it so she couldn’t lick or bite the stitches.

Good idea.

Obviously wouldn't work for every situation, like protecting the legs. But on the body, yes.

On my cat? Don't think she'd go for it. lol

R BMW · 05-06-2023, 11:49 AM

I think a cat would have to be totally drugged out in order to get one in it.

We had to come up with something other than the cone of shame for our girl. She was so small and kept running into things with it on. Also I couldn't take laughing any more.
