Cone-head! My little girl got her lady-parts snipped.
I hope she never needs another surgery, but those hard plastic cones are crap. Same price, at least according to the vet invoice, I got this soft Elizabethen collar on Amazon. Couldn't recommend them more.
As some of you may know, I have a brewdog named Bonnie. I've decided to promote her to head brewer. And I've hired her a new assistant - this is Clyde who was found roaming loose in Puerto Rico, and decided a move to SoFla was in order.
This weekend we met up with an owner of one of Clara’s brothers from their litter. Another brother was supposed to make it but had to cancel last minute. Clara is with the blue harness and Bear in the red one.
Clara is usually nervous the first time around new dogs but quickly warms up. Saturday they saw each other sniffed like dogs do and played without any reservations. It does make you wonder if they remember or can tell they are siblings. Then we let them run off leash and boy did they have fun!! It was awesome and we plan to do this again and hopefully the other brother can make it next time.
The look I get every morning I try and sleep in... this little sh!t slowly crawls up from the foot of the bed up to the pillow and stares at me. Then creeps a lick if I keep ignoring him.
Public Service Announcement for anyone in the tropical areas.
Cane toads can kill a dog. I have lots of them in the summer. They have these huge glands behind their eyes that are full of milky toxin - if you squeeze that gland ( I just did the one below), white stuff squirts out. Dogs LOVE to chase them. They come out at night, especially warm rainy weather. They are huge. You'll never see them during the day, but when they are active they leave impressive turds all over the place.
They are non-indigenous. Introduced to florida to fight some bug in the sugar cane plantations in the everglades. Per our usual arrangement, this resulted in a bigger problem (and didn't solve the first). When found, they should be anesthetized then euthanized. Easiest way is overnight refrigeration, followed by overnight freezing. I'm not a fan of killing any living thing, but given the risk, toads have to go.
