    So Lyra's reactivity has flared up a lot in the past few days - I didn't think the husky attack would effect her this much. :c
    I asked my friend to hold her for a second out on our walk today, a woman came around the corner with her big chocolate labrador (which was minding its own business) and Lyra just went mental - not her usual kind of cowering and snarling thing either, she started growling and lunging, barking her head off. I ran over to her and grabbed the leash and she stopped, so I thought it might have just been because someone else was holding her...nope.

    Went for a run afterwards and whenever we went past a dog she'd start barking and lunging (thankfully she didn't stop running, though - rope burn would've been catastrophic) and would only shut up once they were completely out of sight.

    On our morning run we met a woman and her little dog who was also very timid, she asked why Lyra was so frightened and I told her she was attacked, apparently her dog was too - twice in one week, possibly by the same dog - she said she didn't let hers off-leash now because he was becoming reactive to other dogs.

looking for a little bit of hope these days?

Thankies <3 <3

Thankfully. D; I don't think I ever will though. :'D She hasn't shown any abnormalities again, but we're still taking it pretty easy (mainly because I'm a huge chicken).
Today was out first day out during the day since she had the heat stroke. :P It wasn't too bad earlier so we walked for a bit in the shade at the strip mall, went to the pet store to visit (she may not enjoy pets or touching from strangers, but she's all for shaking hands and giving high fives!), and then came home and lounged in her pool.

I wish I could find a pool for so cheap! I need like 3 of them lol. Annie is quickly outgrowing her cat litter box 'pool'

Speaking of Annie, she is doing great. We've been working on sit and down, need to start working on her recall but it's been so hot that I haven't felt up to it. Hopefully we finish our fence soon, and she can move back to the back to start getting more use to the goats.

Princess has also been out to meet her a couple times, and she is doing so much better on her dog reactivity! She's very curious about Annie and even tried to play yesterday! She also went over to see the neighbors dogs and was very good with them. (All through the fence of course, until I have someone who can help hold leashes, she won't be meeting Annie without the fence)

I'll check there! Thanks Mac!

My sister has one that she doesn't need, just has to go get it back from someone. Hopefully I can get that from her soon for Annie, then I only have to find one for the duck. (He has also outgrown his pool, he's a bit less demanding than Annie though lol)

I don't post here much anymore, but I need some good thoughts. Ryder, if anyone remembers him, quite possibly has bone cancer. We won't know for certain until Monday when he goes to see the oncologist, but his odds are pretty slim right now. There is a tiny chance that he has a fungal infection on his bone, and that it's not cancer, but only time will tell at this point. He's only 2 years old, and is a lovable doofus. Literally the most stable dog this family has ever had. If the cancer has already spread to his lungs...there is little we will be able to do. I don't know what we'd do without this lovable boy </3

These last couple months have not been kind; first Okami has a seizure and now this. Animals need to stop getting sick..

Oh no, I am so sorry about your pups. <3 I will keep you and your fella in my thoughts, and I hope it isn't anything serious. Spike has had a few cancer scares so I can somewhat get where you are coming from. Best of luck to you guys! <3

Link- I hope Ryder is ok!

Annie came with me to spend some time in the goat pen tonight. She's getting so big! I didn't really notice until today when she was right against Athena! Now that she's a bit bigger, the goats aren't having as many issues with her as they once did. Especially since she's been working very hard on her 'leave it'

Still won't let her hang out with them when they are let loose for awhile since she's too excitable still, but I'm proud of the progress she has made since last time she was in with them.
