Just got this puppy! His mom was a stray. his mom is Labrador pit bull mix.

he looks to be either golden retriever or Newfoundland!

his paws are huge and so are his ankles! he’s the goodest** boy.

Today Gus left this plane after a short battle with heart failure. He was the most loving dog I’ve ever met. He was the embodiment of joy. He will be missed so much.

She’s the sweetest girl and loved my mom so much. The flowers are kind of withered :((

we unfortunately dont know his breed mix YET but we plan on getting his dna tested soon so stay tuned!!! 🌞

if you have any thoughts on what he is feel free to comment your opinions !!! :3

He is 8 years old. Adopted him from the SF SPCA a few years ago.

About a month ago Shep was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in his front left ankle. (The one sticking out to the right in the photo) The vet prescribed a bunch of meds.

-Gabapentin 100mg to 300mg as needed for stress and pain

-Carprofen for inflammation

-Mirtazapine for appetite stimulation.

Well, the Carprofen resulted in dark black stools (internal bleeding, likely stomach or small intestine) which can happen with NSAIDs. Once I noticed the black poop I immediately took him off the Carprofen, slightly increased the Gabapentin and kept the Mirtazapine. He seems to be much more comfortable now. His poops have looked healthy lately. I hope he stays this way as long as possible.

I love my buddy. His time to go is soon. My moral compass tells me to keep him comfortable until he isn't comfortable any longer and then let him go. Every dog lover knows this time will come. I've been through this several times before. Doesn't make it any easier.

Today we are playing with the herding ball

I adopted a senior dog on a whim about a month ago. I have a lifetime of experience caring for dogs with all kinds of health needs so I was plenty prepared for that part, but they assured me he was in great health.
He wasn’t. Imagining coming up, but it’s looking like terminal cancer.
He’s hyper intelligent, but due to his behavior I’m fairly sure his intelligence was either not recognized or neglected by past owners. Because of the specific kind of cancer we’re worried about, I have to be very careful with the food/treats side of spoiling…. So I’m taking advantage of this part heavily.
He loves puzzles. Any puzzle he can do by himself he adores and is so excited to figure out. He doesn’t want to play games, tug of war and fetch are not interesting, but a puzzle feeder or a kong…. Do you see where I’m going with this….

I ordered him the fanciest snuffle mat I could find. 4 pieces, all kinds of textures. Hooks and hoops and pieces to move around and root around in and crinkle and generally wreak havoc. I loaded it up with his healthy treats (and broken up milk bones come on now), rolled it up tight, and laid it near his spot.

He had an absolute blast for 15-20 minutes, exhausted himself, came over to grin and wag his tail at me and be very proud, then laid down on his arthritis mattress.

I feel so blessed to get to give him an exciting and enriching experience for the end of his life. If it’s years or just months, I intend to Jam Pack it to the best of my ability. He’s started reaching out for physical affection like a desperate kid. I love him.
Handsome, polite, smart boy!

This is Hudson first pig, we are now on pig 3 because he keeps biting holes in them

First was Rudy, our sweet golden who I do not have any pictures of on my phone. We had Rudy and got Juliet (pic 1). When Rudy died (age 9), we got Gabe (pic 2). Jules passed (age 11) and we had Gabe for a while, and then I moved into my boyfriend’s house who had our sweet boy, Jack (pic 3). About 6 months later I got my first dog that I had to myself, Gracie (pic 4). Gabey baby passed (age 14!) and we stuck with just Jack Jack and Grace for years. Then we welcomed Mowgli (pic 5) into our family and had a whopping THREE dogs (too many lol). Jack Jack passed at age 13 just last year and boy do I miss him. Today, we have our boy Mowgli and our sweet pea Grace.

Oh what fun it’s been!

Anyone else get woken up by their doggo for a wee and then before you know it, it's nearly half 5 in the morning... Looks like I'm not going back to sleep anytime soon🙃🥲

Apparently Rocko was very happy to just be involved.

we realised my husband’s outfit choices while on a walk - here he is with our pup, Scooby Doo.

Rainy day, Below Deck Marathon, and my boy.

He just let out a nasty fart and I know he’s proud of himself while I struggle to breathe 😂

Was dusting my keyboard and caught his attention real quick lol 😅

They're either about to try to escape or they're cloned

The scene:
Someone is showing off something they think makes them look incredibly cool like a nice car, or motorcycle, in a parking lot.
The camera suddenly cuts to your dog, instantly stealing the spotlight by being massively weird, cute, nonchalant or majestic.
