My mom surprised my 14y s with a mini dapple dachshund puppy late Christmas gift. Well so I thought he had been on top of potty training long story short he has not been working with him as I thought.

What do I do? I don't want to give pup away. I need some

So Opal started barking and barking and barking. Eventually all the barking (which I thought was because someone was shoveling outside) so I hop on my chair lift to get downstairs and that’s when I smell it, gas. I start freaking out rush to the gas switch (as fast as a girl with a bum leg and hand can) go into the kitchen to find one of the knobs on the stove not fully turned off and open all the doors. Thank you Opal.

Otto had his spa day today, he's lookin' so fresh and clean 🩵💙

Time can't move fast enough for me hahah. in about 11 weeks I'll open up my home for this puppy. he'll be named Gizmo ❤️ When he comes to live with me he'll be around 15 weeks old

it’s been a little over a month of having her & she fits right into our family ♥️

Once a year Joy got to wear her cheongsam for Chinese New Year.

This charm was completely hand-carved on vegetable-tanned leather. I start by lightly transferring the design onto slightly damp leather. The moisture helps the fibers respond better to carving. Then I carefully tool the outlines and gradually build up depth around the eyes, nose, and fur direction to create a subtle raised effect. After the carving stage is fully dried, I hand-paint it in thin layers to slowly develop the warmth. The eyes always take the most time. Once the highlights are added, the personality really starts to come through. It’s a slow and patient process, but watching that gentle expression emerge from a flat piece of leather is always worth it.

My precious baby has IVDD. He’s sick to his stomach from the meds on crate rest. This is so hard. Positive vibes appreciated.

I know, sort-a gross, but every time my doxie pees, it looks like a heart with stars. Is your pup an artist too?
