Hey Trophy...

Hey at the risk of tearing open fresh wounds, does anyone remember the conversation in this thread about dog privilege? Well I found a clip from a super awesome old movie that portrays cats as heros. If someone could point me to where I could purchase the full movie I would be grateful.

6:15am No seriously, human, run time now.

6:30am I will wail until I either wake you up or the entire neighborhood, matters not to me!

6:45am-7:45am Run time is the best time

7:45-8:30am I love you and because I love you I will tolerate you brushing me but god dammit do I really want you to stop. I will lick your hands because I am so good I will not bite you even though I really, really want to.

8:30-9:00am Chasing the water from the hose is the best time

9:00am Breakfast! (that I may or may not eat depending on whether or not I think I can negotiate my way to human food.)

9:00-12:00 Nap time if we've run 6+ miles. Otherwise time to try to eat the neighbor's chickens

12-1pm Walk time is time to sniff all the things

1-3pm play with cats and/or nap time

3-4pm weight pull time is the best time

4-6pm nap time

6pm dinner!

7-8pm Evening walks are best because there are rabbits I can try to eat

9:30 - "gently caress YOU Go away. Sleeping." *walks out of bedroom to go to the other bed in the living room*
9:45 - "Walk time? I like walks, but first, let me sample everything in my breakfast I didn't want an hour ago."
10:00 - "I POOPED ON THE WALK AND NOW IT IS TIME FOR CRAZY RUNNING IN THE LIVING ROOM BARKBARKBARKBARKBARK"
10:15 - ??? - "Go away. Sleeping."
6:30 - "Give me your food~"
6:45 - "You did not give me food, so I will demand my own by ringing my food bowl."
7:00 - 10:00 - "Go away. Sleeping."
11:00 - 1:30 - "SOMEONE IS STILL UP TIME TO BARK AND TRY TO PLAY WHAT ARE NEIGHBORS?!"

Is that what you're posting?

Got home from work earlier to find some dried blood spots on the floor, including one large patch. The ferrets are all accounted for in their cage and the cat was confirmed to be spotless after a thorough flip-him-around-a-bunch-of-times examination that he did not much care for. At first I was concerned he had peed blood again, but then I realized that my house doesn't smell like cat piss and the scent of the stuff was just coppery.

The obvious explanation is that the cat hurt himself somehow and diligently cleaned all the evidence off himself to save face, but wasn't willing to lick the floor clean. He's got an impenetrable poker face, though, so I doubt I'll ever get the truth out of him. :colbert:

Look, I'm the first to understand cosmetic preferences in animals. I own a purebread cat for pete's sake. I just didn't get the vitriol I was seeing absent a medical reason. One was provided so now I understand. I'm sorry you can't let any little tiny thing go, dog people.

Also the Trophy thread was already written up this morning I was just waiting till I'd gone to the gym and lunch before posting it. Funny coincidences all up in PI today.

No you see shaving a double coated breed is dog abuse and people should feel bad so here is my seven paragraph thesis on the matter. Going to nail this to my local groomer's door.

EDIT: I grew up with a fixed double coated dog who we never shaved, just brushed. She never was bothered by heat or cold and at one point in time would fight with us to stay outside in the middle of the day in Texas. My current dog is double coated and has no tolerance for heat. If its 80 or above he pants like he is going to pass out (even when we first walk outside) and refuses to spend any length of time outside when its that hot. Am I going to shave him? No. Can I give him a kiddie pool if we had to be out all day? No, he hates getting wet. At the end of the day there's a lot more variability than people are willing to admit.

It's not dog abuse and I won't go for pages and pages screaming about it like some people (:psyduck:) but it does make your dog look loving retarded and IMO, its the lazy owners way of dealing with heat. It's really not all that difficult to keep a dog cool without making it look like a butt.

That's all I have to say on shaving. And I won't post Keeper's 'daily life' because he doesn't do anything of interest aside from being a dog.

ETA: I think people can do what they like with their own dogs. Obviously not everyone agrees it ruins the coat or puts them at higher risk for sunburn but for my own spectrum; a) every link I can find says that and b) that's what my own vets and groomers have unanimously agreed upon, so I'll always advise against it if someone posts asking about whether or not to shave. You buttify your own dogs all you like, but I'll keep mine looking normal, thanks.

I like to see other people's pets on Facebook. Usually it's my college advisor's adorable malamutes, which is great, or my friends fabulous black cat, Professor Oak.

But now, suddenly, a former classmate of mine is posting about her *~*AdOrAbLe*~* TEACUP POMERANIAN that her boyfriend bought for her. It was lovely at first, because the thing is loving tiny and weird looking, but today I found out that the puppy is only TWO WEEKS OLD. :what:

Why does she have it already at two weeks? Where is its mother?? Why did her boyfriend think it was a good idea to buy her a deformed, possibly unweaned puppy as a present??? Whyyyyyyyy????

:cripes:


Fake edit: Just saw this: "I didn't know the owners weren't supposed to sell him to me [at two weeks old]!" ...well, that would be why you learn about puppies before you buy one.

These are 3 weeks old: http://youtu.be/MfqXP4LAlwA
And they are pretty advanced as far as movement goes, about half a week ahead of the curve at this age when compared to toller puppies. So I doubt a two week old teacup pomeranian would actually walk at all. (Mind you they progress rapidly so 16 days can be a lot different from 14.)

I have seen no evidence that the dog can walk, and it is MUCH smaller than those puppies. It is also supposedly the runt, but seriously, the thing is about as big as a medium sized potato, or small guinea pig.
