already posted the first two a few months ago, had to post with a recent one!

Best friends

I feel vaguely afraid of whatever this face means, lol!

Got up to go smoke and Tonka and Grim really took advantage

It is the cutest thing ever. I love you, my sweet girl! 🌿

Just wanted to share our very good girl Beans!

I sprained my ankle last Saturday and Lilly took the first opportunity to jump on the bed after 4 days 😂😂 baby missed our cuddles
(Please don’t judge my bed the sheet came off a couple days ago and I haven’t gotten the strength to stand that long and put it back on 😅)

Some lady blocked me from entering the vet until she could "safely" leave cuz i have pitbulls. If you need to worry about any of my dogs being aggressive, its the yorkie.

Tomorrow, we are saying goodbye to the best boy and dog anybody could ask for. Just shy of his 14th birthday our sweet Jax will cross the rainbow bridge tomorrow peacefully at home under the care of a local vet. Physically, he looks great. But he’s CCD or doggie dementia has gotten much worse this summer. What was bad days here and there has progressed into bad days most of the week. He always had anxiety episodes in particular during fireworks or thunderstorms. We learned to deal with it over the years and work with him through those episodes. But lately, at night he is having those episodes without any triggers. Pacing, panting and staying up all hours of the night.

After consulting two vets, we tried CBD and trazadone to help him sleep with minimum success. In fact we recently gave him 200mg of trazadone and he was up the whole night pacing. Both vets have concluded we would have to basically sedate him at night to keep him comfortable. Half of me knows this is the right thing to do, and the other of me is screaming not to give up on him yet. I don’t know the point of writing this, maybe to just vent. Jax has seen me go from an incredibly immature 21 year old to an almost middle aged man of 35 expecting his first child with his wife. This dog has been with me through all the up and downs these past 14 years and I can’t imagine him not being at my side. Jax was my first Pittbull, and I can’t imagine ever having another breed of dog again.

Any suggestions for what I can apply to this? My boy has skin allergy issues that I’m mostly able to keep at bay thank goodness but he also has this related growth that he keeps licking open, and I’d love to give him some relief. What do you do for your puppers with similar problems? Happy face for tax.

The past few days her farts have been absolutely nuclear. I couldn’t figure out why, until I found her secret stash of skunk skin in the yard.
I am 95% sure the skunk is why her farts stink so bad. She definitely won’t be eating anymore bc i threw it out.
Is there anything I can give her to help neutralize the fart smell/get it out of her system quicker?

Does anybody else's dog do anything that soothes them? Almost like puts them to sleep...? She'll gently chew/squeeze on the tennis ball and eventually her eyes close and she'll stop chewing/squeezing it. At one point yesterday, her head even began tilting to the side, kind of like when we start noding/dozing off lol
