Hello ^^
I own an 11 year old dachshund, her name is Sara
I used to own a standard boy, but sadly this past September we had to put him down. He couldn't walk on his back legs anymore, and already went through surgery once.

Anyways, I just wanted to stop in and say hi ^^

My future housemate’s dog is down due to an obstruction that just won’t go away. He threw up part of it but looks like there’s a second one farther down than the first. He is being prepped for surgery as I type.

As anyone with a dog knows, obstruction surgeries are risky and involve long recovery times. Not only is it very possible that she’ll lose her boy over this but it’s late enough in the game with my move that it will probably delay me or affect my plans somehow. I’m supposed to be making the trip down there on Friday, after all.

Please guys, we need a miracle right about now.



Crossing my fingers for you. Foreign body's are scary and happen so easily :(

Maybe it is just me, but this page irks me. I get what
they are doing but the big letters up top...it just
seems that they are flat out labeling pitties as
dangerous.


"Mauled our five year old son, completely unprovoked"
That's not how dogs work, they don't suddenly decide to just "oh, I think I'm going to maul this child today" I wish I could smack some sense into their brains.


Maybe not but that boy who was riding his bike on his drive way and the dog got out of the yard because a gate was left open, he then snuck up behind the boy and grabbed him by the leg
I'd say that was unprovoked
Yes maybe the dog didn't like the bike or maybe he's HA or maybe he just doesn't like kids
But the kid didn't do a thing to the dog
Most of the time it's probably is provoked, I mean my son harasses my dogs sometimes, Benji will let him know when he's had enough and Scooby just doesn't care lol


I do agree and I've seen that footage, but the way they were wording it seem like the dog just suddenly decided that hey, I'm going to maul this boy.

Dogs don't just do that, they do have a reason is all I'm saying. A child or anybody else doesn't have to exactly DO something to a dog in order for it to have a reason to attack. As silly as that reason may be, it's a reason and it's "important" to that dog.

Seems to me more like the dog put up with the kid in the article and didn't actually like it, had enough, snapped and hurt the boy, or perhaps the dog would give sligh warning signs they just didn't mention for the sake of the article.

Not saying it's the boys fault, it's nobodies fault, and there is nobody to blame (although people LOVE to blame something if something bad happens)

:/ Any suggestions on heavy duty carpet cleaners that
are specifically for pet issues? No matter how much
we take her out, or how many pads we put down,
it seems that Dixie has done some real damage
to our carpet.

Have you tried Nature's Miracle Advanced formula for pet stains? Works really well.

We haven't tried anything yet, so I'm just trying to get
the best right of way...not up for trial and error with
this stuff. Not worried as much about stains (very
dark carpeting) but I need something that will
really kill the odor. It's...horrible.
