The Dog Thread

[Coyote850]

Best dog I ever had was a mutt named Ben. He was 1/2 cocker spaniel and 1/2 dachshund. Ate table scraps, lived to be about 16. Most loving affectionate dog you'd ever meet. Also had a Dalmatian, lovable, but dumb as fuck.

On a side note, I took Hobbes to the vet today and he has a clean bill of health. Now has a collar and tag.

this poor dog.. I give her a weekly flea bath, ive replaced her bed... She is just so itchy.

Im still waiting on receiving big money and Im broke bc of the deposit on the new place I had to pay, so are there any suggestions on inexpensive and efficient flea remedies? The best Ive heard of is 'revolution' which is prescribed by a vet.. I think the shit is 12 a montha nd the visit is 40 bucks. SO anything that could beat 160 would be awesome

If you give her monthly flea medication and she's still itchy, it might be allergies. Try switching her to a grain free food. That tends to help a lot, although it can be a bit pricey. I feed my dogs Taste of the Wild Prairie, which runs about 45-50 bucks for a thirty-pound bag. Otherwise, just buy monthly flea treatment from Wal-Mart. Shit's over the counter and costs less than the standard vet stuff.

Also, if you're buying flea treatment from the vet and they charge you for the visit to pick it up, you're going to the wrong vet. I pick up my flea/heartworm supplement monthly from my vet, and I never get charged for a check-up unless I literally bring my dog in for a check-up. They don't charge me for vet time unless I actually schedule it and what not. I buy one month at a time, but only because my dogs are in different weight classes and it's annoying to buy six months of both at once.

morgo is much bettter since I picked up some stuff from walmart. Not 100%, but much better. I locked away her dogbed, which Im sure is the source of the evil. Thanks for the advice.

Here is our new addition, a 120# Great Dane. We buried our Dalmation about two years ago, and we've been waiting for the kids to get a bit older before we get another one. One of my wife's friends ended up getting a divorce, was moving from a house to an apt, and was unable to find a home for her Dane, so she put out a FB post asking for help. Wifey brought it to my attention, and after a few days of thinking about it, I gave it the thumbs-up.

Super sweet dog, Danes truly are gentle giants; she's been really gentle with 5y/o daughter and 3y/o son.

LOL. I built the Pullup bar/power rack rig when we first moved into the house; my wife was eyeballing that area for some kind of Smoker's Escape place for her cig breaks, so I had to DeeBo it quick. I still use it for pullups, but added the rope so my kids can climb on it, or use it for a swing. They fucking love that swing.

And it's great for my midget friends to choke themselves while they jerk off....consider that an invitation, Chardon

A good friend of mine got in a car wreck last night (he's ok) and his dog bolted and is now missing. It happened on Madison Ave. in Lakewood. If anyone sees this dog or knows it's whereabouts, holler at me. Her name is Mo. Thanks.

Obviously I'm not going to be much help in the search, but hope your friend finds his dog.
