Since u all loved him last time he’s back again my baby on his morning walks

If anyone remembers my girl Mia, things aren’t looking great, but we will find out more tomorrow at her (maybe) chemo appt.

Main question, how have you dog owners explained death to your kiddos? I have a 3 year old who’s very aware our dog has log a leg, and has booboos. She constantly asks are we going home to Mia, and I say yes. This is going to be hard when I have to say no.

How do I explain this when we need to put her down. I would normally process this better, but it’s been a horrific 4 months, and everything sucks to be blatantly clear.

I make him run across the garden 3 times a day so he gets to exercise, but sometimes he starts to cry and then bite me hard while doing this. I'm a 4 foot petite skinny girl and writing to you with bruises all over my arms now! Why might this be and how can I stop this?

Hi, so I have a three year old GSD, she's an absolute water baby through and through and loves swimming but doesn't always have access to the pool.

Because of that she has a small toddler's pool in the yard year-round, usually she will stand in it and splash around a bit but today she's decided to fully lay down in it twice. This isn't normal for her, but both times were after playing fetch and she was panting quite hard so I'm wondering if she's overheating more than normal.

Is this something I should be concerned about?

If she didn't like to swim so much the answer would be clear, but since she does I'm just not sure what to think.

i was in the back yard with her playing fetch and a stupid deer ran through the woods and nova decided she wanted that deer. they had to give her 12 staples on her arm. thankfully no muscle was damaged. now shes spending some time in the cone of shame.

Not sure if it was a branch from a bush or one of the other dogs bit him. He's ok, hasn't missed a beat. Just really glad he didn't get it in the eye.
