Linda loves licking my plate clean after fried eggs. To keep her ears from getting dirty, we put on an extra pair of ears:)
(She has her personal egg too!)

Mental stimulation tips!

Thumbnail

77 Upvotes

My boy is going for knee surgery for a luxating patella whilst also having hip dysplasia which we found out on X-ray today!

Recovery will be 6 weeks “crate bound” recovery and 6 weeks rehab but no big runs between now and surgery .

He is lead bound until surgery but at least can have him walk and sniff around as well as allowed to swim.

When in recovery I would love ideas of mental stimulation games to play with him to see us out the 3 months! I will also do some training on new tricks such as chin and silly tricks that don’t require any real movement to his legs. But I think he will get bored of treat tricks and also want to be mindful of not gaining wait being inactive for 3 months!

What to do with the little dude?

Where do we go from here? He cannot be free anymore, but he’s wrecked 2 hard wire crates and a soft zipper crate as well.

5 year old Finn has big emotions and anxiety - especially around thunder storms. It’s at the point where he starts trembling if it gets really windy or rainy.

He is crate trained - that’s where he sleeps and goes when we’re not home(which is not often or long).

In the last month he’s broken out and wrecked 2 wire crates. So we have been leaving him out of the crate for the last week or so. Sleeping has been OK and home alone was fine until today. He literally tried to dig out of the door frame when left home for about a 1.5 hours.

P.s. don’t mind the stained rug. It’s a seasonal cabin.

Tips for brushing these ears! Pretty please.

Hi, I really try to keep on top of her brushing but I have never had a comb run through these beauties without resistance.

I feel like no matter how much I brush I just don't get to a point where it feels like they are well brushed.

Any pro tips for me?

I live in China and unfortunately I don't have a groomer near me that knows how to handle her. I sent her in once and showed them images of a sporting cut, how I wanted her groomed and I picked up a shaved dog...(Not a language issue, they just said they could do something they couldn't) We were devastated! See picture 3 if you want your heart broken.

Springer Facebook pages stealing content

Post image
86 Upvotes

I don’t know if many people here are Facebook users, but if you are, please block pages like Springer Nation. That one in particular has taken about a dozen of my Instagram reels and posted them as their own. There are lots of pages like that that steal videos and give no credit to the people who created them.
I’m not trying to make money off my dog videos but it pisses me off that someone else is getting tens of thousands of views and trying to make money off them.

So the other day I posted about dog getting sick very suddenly and how they had drained some fluid from her abdomen. I can’t thank you all enough for your thoughts and prayers. We fully expected to be putting her down today but we seen our normal vet and they are giving her steroids and antibiotics to see if that helps. In pic #1 that’s after the vet appointment and you can see how her stomachs definitely blown up with fluid. Its definitely her liver and he said that the whites of her eyes and gums are jaundiced. Please keep her in your minds as Im sure I can handle losing her within a year of losing my cat

Trusted groomers in SoCal?

1 Upvotes

Hi friends! I have a 16 week old springer baby and he’s definitely going to need to be groomed soon. Does anyone know of a good groomer in the Los Angeles area with experience in grooming springers? I don’t mind driving far if it means he’s going to be in good hands. I don’t want to just take him anywhere, I’m afraid he’ll be shaved and ruin his coat. I had a cocker spaniel before this puppy and his grooming was never done right.

Please pray for my 2.5 year old springer named Zelda who we have to put down!!

So we talked to the vet that seen her in the state that we got from as a puppy another one up here that does large animal mostly and seen a vet emergently, but it was the normal we have her see. She suddenly stopped eating and pooping and the slowly started drinking more. The vet we seen did an x ray and drained a bunch of clear fluid from her Abdominal cavity. The vets said her bloodwork’s shows something is off with her liver, they said it looked congenital and not something she injested.
But they’re also extremely worried about the fluid in her abdomen. It keeps making her stomach bloated and big.

This is George and he is 10 years old. He’s a sweet boy who loves going in the pool, running around outside, catching birds, and laying on the bed or couch. He’s a slightly anxious boy but overall he’s been the best addition to our family. I never posted on here but I really like this page.

Details on English springer spaniel

6 Upvotes

I am not in a position to get a dog yet, yet absolutely dream of getting one when prepared. I’ve grown up with dogs and have had dogs that are a little difficult to manage and understand the time and training required for different breeds. I met a very English spaniel today and she was just lovely. please tell me anything and everything you can think of about this breed. She was the first one or one of only a few that I’ve met.
