Here’s Lila aka The Rat holding down the end of the bed this morning. She’s watching out the window for squirrels and dangerous moving branches.

Well, that didn't take long. (Claiming the bed spot) Nice looking pup. Can't go wrong with a good beer and a good dog.

We lost our lab of 13 years Aug 2020...said we weren't getting another dog as both kids are away in college now and we travel quite a bit....WELL we fell in love with a Mini Aussie and got her June 2021. It's great to have her around as she's a huge distraction to the empty nest! This is Harley and she loved her first snow.

My Yorkie Ziggy. He had some teeth removed including the front ones so his tongue hangs out. Unfortunately he had all the rest removed last week. He is a rescue from a shelter, we don't know much about him. We know he was treated badly with little to no medical care. He was skin and bones when he came to live with us but he looks good now and enjoying life except for the last few days with jaw discomfort.

First I'll say Thank You for choosing to adopt a companion in need 👍
And without teeth you need the proper food. My late Boxer had most of his lower jaw removed.
I made his food, boneless chicken breasts, boiled and shredded by hand, fresh veggies, barley or brown rice, in a soup type food.
Yeah, I know, I'm crazy. But as you know, w/o teeth food does not digest, and will choke your buddy.
The only water soluble kibble is Bil-Jac. It's a small "pellet" type food, and they love it.
12 lbs. of chicken per 15 lb. bag. A variety for different ages/needs.
Buy it locally, use the $3 coupon, or order on line.

Yes, they do look alike. Ours is getting old for a Boxer as she just turned 10 and she is now having trouble with her hind legs. Vet suggested water therapy and I'm considering getting her (and us) an above ground pool.

Flip, you had me worried for a moment, when I saw the title in the list I thought you'd bought a Yamasaki!!

Ask your vet about Glucosamine. I give it to my buddies at a young age, it's a joint supplement.
Use 1500 mg per day, not a prescription, cheaper at Walmart.
Be very careful when there are slippery conditions. An ACL injury is very serious and can be a very expensive surgery.
You can also do range of motion exercises to help her joints. Have her lay on her side, talk to her to keep her calm.
Slowly move her leg in it's natural range. 200 times a day, not all at once.
Your calm voice will comfort her and keep her calm.

My daughter could not be parted with Ella one of the last of the Muley labs so she is now living with her collie buddies 5 minutes from me.
I adopted a lab from a nearby lab oriented rescue organization. His name is Joey. He is a corker and now 11 months old. He has also taken to the sidecar very well.

This is a great thread. Lots of love shown for these wonderful companions.
February seventh marks the birthday of our black lab, Maverick. He is eight years old and I think that makes him about 54, still younger than I. Having a dog added to our family of six was not something I wanted. I didn't want to have to feed and clean and train and potty train and vacation with a pet. I just did not want the added responsibility.
I became the victim of a propaganda scheme. Little post-it notes were strategically placed to rile my emotions.
(https://i.ibb.co/dpbKGhg/iwuntapuppy.jpg) (https://ibb.co/dpbKGhg)
On my closet door, in my lunch bag, on my steering wheel. Promises of we will take care of him, we will feed him, we will clean up after him. After what seemed like months of harassment they had finally wore me down! He is a good dog and I'm glad to have him. That post it note still hangs in my closet, a constant reminder of my youngest daughter.

we were snowbound in Maine and To Kill a Mockingbird came on the TV. Her name is retired.
I had an unnamed pup and was in Nome, Alaska for a meeting when I walked into the facility where the meeting was to be held-- it closely resembled the court room scene in To Kill a Mockingbird (with the audience gallery up above the meeting down below). I instantly knew then that the pup would be named Scout. Best dog ever (we took her to the beach again yesterday). She turns 11 next month and we're hoping for many more years with her but thankful for every day we have with her now.

Nice! I like the tug in the second picture. Commercial fishing boat?
The boats in the background are all commercial fishing boats. The little home-built runabout is a Phil Bolger design, "Skimmer", meant to be a "poor man's Boston Whaler" (plans here: https://www.instantboats.com/product/skimmer-8-0-x-4-0/). I can build one of these in about 2 days. Put a 10hp outboard on them and they FLY! Built this one for goofing off with my wife's niece and nephew when they visit and we run out to islands in Narragansett Bay.

The pond I kayak in has a Vizsla at the north end. He is totally obsessed with being in the water searching for fish.
Nothing distracts him. Not my dog, treats, my Barred Owl calls, nothing. I tell his mom she has the perfect home for him. :grin:
