OSUT 257: Spring is Finally Here. Bring on the Outdoor Fun and Grilling Season!

[Lpherr]

I've been wanting some no-bake cookies, so I whipped up a batch.
We have a large bag of Walnuts that should be eaten, so I chopped some and added.
Now I have a plate of semi-flat turds. They aren't as good as I had hoped for; won't be doing that again.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Car looks much better. Man, it was filthy.

 

[DoggyDaddy]

Howdy Lpherr! How's the pup doing?

Hello DD.
Not good. Had an incident yesterday, so we are going to contact the vet and try some meds to calm him.
Talked to a rescue yesterday, and they said he sounds like most any place that would take him in, would likely
euthanize him. I don't want that for him. We'll give the meds a try and go from there.

Ran mine this morning on first outing. Had a held ticket.
Dusty already, but she's black. I still love her.

Sorry, Lpherr.
I had hoped for better for you.

 

[Lpherr]

Sorry, Lpherr.
I had hoped for better for you.

We've been trying our best, and doing research, but without knowing his past, we can't determine the triggers.
It seems random, but I'm sure there's something. We're hoping the meds help balance his sudden mood swings
and we can continue to work with him.
Overall, he's a good pup. It's just those times when he gets an attitude for what seems like, no reason.

Sorry to hear that. What about your little girl that hat the tumor removed?

She seems to be fine so far. She healed up quickly and is back to her sassy self.
Now, I hope it remains that way.

Oh good! That's actually who I had in mind when I asked originally. I'd forgotten about your problem child and thought things had settled down with him.

Hi Lpherrr

Your need to protect your other two.

 

[Lpherr]

It's been a little over three months that he's been here. We had hoped he would adjust, but there's something from his past, that we need to get him to forget. He's in a safe, loving home, but he doesn't realize it.

 

[Lpherr]

Hi Lpherrr

Your need to protect your other two.

That's one of the strange things. He and the little girl got into it, and now even when she gets snappy at him, he just walks past her and there aren't any problems.
However, he insists on bullying Bullitt and I think Bullitt is getting to the point of setting him straight.
But I don't want them to injure each other over getting along.

So sad!

I don't want to try to parallel too much, but you're not alone.

We had a wonderful rescue dog for over three years when he developed seizures.
Solid trooper, protector and a lover. What purity of soul!
Doc did all she could.

I'm hoping for more good times for you.

My objective is to break through to him.
It's terribly hard to let go of a pet when it's their time, and knowing he wouldn't fair well
in any other situation and end up meeting his demise, I just can't let that happen.
It would be better for him to live medicated, than not to live at all.
Maybe it's a stupid decision on my part, but even with his issue, he's a part of our family.

There's no stupid here.
Enjoy what you can.
Family, as you say!
... and we know.

The Mrs. has dinner ready to toss on the grill.
Then maybe a movie.
