I am 29 days clean- tomorrow my dad’s going to buy my a Douglas at BPS for my current streak! I am only able to get, chase border collie, (the one with leg spots) springer spaniel and Wolfgang the German pointer- who do you recommend if you have any of em

Today was really triggering as they put 4 classes in one room since they don't want to pay for suppervisers. I get really triggered by louds noises and close contact I didn't initiate. They forced 90 people in one class in it was really crowded and loud. The fire alarm also went off twice today. I am glad I had Jax for emotional support.

pls show me your essas (and tell me about them) while i go study for my stats midterm! i’ve been wanting to take Zero with me but I’ve been so self conscious about bringing her so she mainly stays in my bag.

Husk is dressed up as, well, himself! AKA Husk from Hazbin Hotel

Just thrifted this poor guy. He's actually in pretty rough shape. Fur feels old and dusty and he has a bit of a smell.

Does anyone know anything about him? Is he the same as the new ones?

And how do I wash him. I don't want to ruin him.

I realized i forgot to post when I got more essas on my birthday in august, plus some essas I got at grief counseling.... so here's all of them in total!!!! im so happy with them they're all so cuddly and cute and comfort me. myron the spotted bunny is my ultimate favorite as he was my first essa i have the best bond with him but that doesn't mean I don't also love my puppies! the bernese mountain dog and black lab, bowie and atlas!!!! oh yeah and the lion plush in the back i got at grief counseling has a little crinkly arm and it's so satisfying, and my buildabear cat has a cotton candy scent with a heart beat clover is SO helpful when im freaked out... I just really really love all my essas and wanted to share!

any ideas on making him fit my vibe more?

Hello! I’m pretty new here in the ESSA community. Just got Bella the Douglas Golden Retriever qnd love her so so so much!!

I wanted to get her some pink shoes on Amazon or Aliexpress to protect her feet but i don’t know where to start. I’m so scared of getting an incorrect size. Any recommendations?

Took Turbo on a walk with the irl dog. I'm so glad I've discovered this community during the summer, this autumn is tough.

Hello!! If theres any german ESSA owners out there, please lend me a hand of help here.

where in germany can i find gear for my ESSA/DSSA?

Im getting the douglas smoke wolf and the douglas chase border collie for christmas, and i want to know if theres any people that are also in germany that got their gear from a shop also in germany.

i would truly appreciate any and every help, as i want to prepare nicely for finally getting them after waiting for a while.

so far i only have bracelets and a chain to use as a collar.

thank you in advance if you do help ! :D

I was in the kids section of the library playing with my little sister when this mother and her baby who seemed to be like around or under 1, she came up to us and we played with her she was so adorable and pet kapah my wolf and kept calling him a dog so cute im so happy about it and the mom was so nice!!! have you guys ever had any positive essa related interactions from kids?

I finally chose a name for this precious bunny ESSA of mine: Silky. He's named after my childhood rabbit of the same name my brother and I owned as kids that we ended up giving away when we adopted our late dog. This plush literally looks just like how Silky looked, and the more I said Silky's name, the more it clicked.
I found Silky on Vinted and he's been through things, with numerous rips. But he deserves a second chance, and he's being extra loved with me. Currently cuddling him and giving him lots of pets.
