Instant Jellyfish posted:All my doors are latched on both sides and have a puppy x pen surrounding them because she knows how to open doors several different ways. She is the most fiendishly clever animal on the farm and I have a cattle dog mix. I don't know what I will ever do without her screaming demands at me constantly. omg you have a cattle dog mix? I love collies. can we see her?

There's a reason all of my gates and stuff have latches or locks that require keys and/or thumbs.

Neddy Seagoon posted:I don't know why or how, but I swear this is a prelude to surprise puppies. Instant Jellyfish is a very, very good and responsible person when it comes to her dogs (all her critters but that's beside the point) and that isn't happening. I fully support her reasoning not to pediatric spay a bitch who will rely on her joints and bones for protection purposes for at least a decade to come. Cythereal posted:Is there any reason you're not spaying Mina? There are studies currently happening that have findings regarding higher incidences of bone cancer, ACL issues, and so forth in giant breeds that have pediatric spays. Given the long-term impact of pediatric spay in giant dogs, this isn't terribly surprising. A lot of vets are becoming aware of it, too.

StrixNebulosa posted:You're making me worried, my pooch was neutered when he was under a year old. He's a fifty pound mutt (maaaybe GSD/husky mix) and I love him and need his bones to be okay. 50 pounds is a long way from giant breed. While it's possible he may have some issues, the likelihood is pretty low.

Mizuti posted:This isn't the happiest subject, but I'm wildly curious. Is it common for people to not seek help soon after it's obvious that something has gone haywire with their animal's birthing process? The case you described seems like certain doom for both mother and baby. In that case, the vet absolutely should have been there. In some cases, vets don't service the area or they get stuck in traffic. I had a ewe prolapse something the size of a coconut through a prolapse harness and it sent her into labor. My vet was 2 hours away because of traffic. I slit her throat, dug through her guts, and delivered twins that were underbaked. Then spent the next two hours digging a hole while my mom sobbed over the phone at me about "that poor sheep", instead of putting her meat to use. Still kinda did. She got planted between the fruit trees and they're blooming great. E: The sheep's meat, not mom's, though some days I am tempted.

Two was a very good boy and I am very glad he went quietly at home with someone who loved him, as all good sheep deserve.

ILL Machina posted:Hey sorry just seeing in your previous posts that you're an owner, too. Sorry if what I said was insensitive, I'm not as close as you guys are. She made it really clear that she didn't want to do those things with him. So yeah, friends. Just zen. I own Katahdins and Shetlands but this is IJ's thread and I sure as hell ain't makin' one.
