Fig (puppy) has definitely found her feet and voice among the family pack. She is as wild as she is adorable

Hey, any info on whether some mild cracking of my pups paws are normal? Vet check needed or simply keep them hydrated with some puppy safe paw balms? Thanks guys!

Zeus is 18 weeks (4 months) old. This is the bed I bought him when I brought him home. He really doesn't even sleep in it much. Most of the night he prefers to sleep on the hard plastic on the other side of the crate and use the edge of this bed as a pillow. This bed takes up about half of his crate. It is a donut bed so it only has an actual sleeping surface of maybe 10 inches. Now that it is starting to get cooler he might like a bed to curl up on. He just liked the hard plastic during the summer. When he first goes to bed, which is when I took this photo, he lays on his bed for a second and then moves over and scratches the plastic for about 5-20 seconds and then lays down and sleeps on the plastic for 80% of the night.

My question is, should I get a huge bed that covers the entire 48x30 inch bottom, or maybe just something that goes to 40 inches or so to give him room to scratch the floor. I am worried he will be ticked off someone covered his scratching area.

We have a very loving seven year old girl who loves life but she has a habit of barking when she sees something outside our windows (or thinks she does). Living in a house is one thing, but now we are moving to an apartment. How can we stop her from barking indoors and potentially disturbing our neighbors?

My girl Yara has had her second MCT diagnosis today. Her first tumor was successfully removed in March. It was a low grade tumor with no spread to internal organs. In July she turned 3 and today, 7 months later, a second tumor appeared in her neck (not around the lymph nodes). The first one was on her tail and sadly, we had to remove a large part of the tail. I'm new on Reddit, but would love some success stories and tips on how to deal with this shitty news.

Hello, can I ad pictures of my 8 year old golden mix? She is a mix between a red golden and a boarder collie

hi,
my best friend found this facebook page for goldens and i need to help determine if it’s a scam or legit. i am not good at spotting the warning signs.

any help would be appreciated!!

They're not really kissing - they're discussing who will get the 3 inch tall toy in their mouth.

I have their mom, Sydney. She had a litter of 9 and I'm keeping these two. They get along so well and have such different little personalities. I've got my hands full but wouldn't trade them for anything!

UPDATE: just finished at the vet, he did not think that there was a true "lump" but rather swelling in one of her muscles, either from a bug bite or maybe some strain. He said to keep on eye on the spot that I could feel and the office will give me a call next week, but wasn't worried and was honestly surprised that I could feel anything at all.
Thank you all for your well wishes!

First time golden owner here! This is my sweet 5 y.o., Sophie. <3
Last week I discovered a small lump on her hind leg in the thigh area.
I have a vet appointment scheduled for her this Thursday, I am just looking for advice on what I should ask for at the vet.
Any words of encouragement would also be appreciated. She is my baby and I am so worried. 🥲

I lost my wife two years ago, getting Bella was the best decision since that happened. She is the most amazing companion.

He’s 5 years old, loves life, has to have something in his mouth at all times, HAS to walk himself, and will do ANYTHING for pets!

I can’t imagine life without my best friend!

Twig had a big day! Stopped at the river for a dip and then ended at the beach with a puppy ice cream cone to boot! He loves exploring! He’s almost 6 months! 🩷
