In Baltimore City, MD: 11 y/o very fearful Pekingese mix found abandoned in an apartment- seeking rescue placement - BARCS, Baltimore MD

Cartwheel- 11 years, altered female, 12lbs

Poor senior, Cartwheel, was discovered reportedly abandoned in an apartment when a new tenant moved in, so understandably she's scared and confused. The finder noted that she was skittish, but able to be handled.

Upon examination, our vets noted that Cartwheel has grade 4/4 periodontal disease, although weren't able to get a good look due to behavior. She also has a possible grade 1/6 heart murmur, overgrown nails, upper airway disease/stenotic nares, and is underweight.

She was vaccinated, had her nails clipped, and she has been started on Galliprant to help keep her more comfortable.

No senior should spend their days in a shelter, and fearful Cartwheel here is no exception. This little lady is so nervous and unsure, and because of it, isn't showing her best self, so we would love to see her off to rescue and a quiet, patient foster home.

Cartwheel will be available for rescue pick-up close of business 1/18.

Please let us know if your organization can help!

Thank you,

reasons why the brothers in piracy have my heart and soul

aka a not-so-brief lore rundown explaining one of the main reasons why i am still crying over block game pirates

canonical golden child and scapegoat dynamic raised in a highkey toxic environment together but they reconciled early in the series

the first thing p!acho convinced p!scott to do after the reconciliation (on the same day) was to go sail out and help star get stars cute dog home (his name is dipper. he is baba)

p!scott @ dipper: "you look after him, okay?"

also same day as the above: p!scott jumped in front of a gun for p!acho. the protecc instinct only goes up from there

and during the reconciliation itself: p!scott made p!acho apple pie :((( p!acho then got p!scott some sweet treats as well

p!bek takes a bounty out on p!acho and immediately tells p!scott without knowing about the brother thing. that is how p!bek found out they're brothers and then had to hurry and carry out the bounty before p!scott could snitch

(p!bek carried out the bounty before she got snitched on but still failed it anyway LMAO)

p!acho claims to hate the heron faction and initially refuses to trust the other people in the nightingale faction to talk to the herons about something weird they found (read: server lore stuff). 15 minutes later, star is entrusting p!scott with that information, completely unprompted. absolute hypocrite, i love star <3

p!acho is one of the first people p!scott shows his tentacle grappling hook to (tbf i think he was the only other person online at the time but still. they are silly <3)

p!scott also kept his dogs at the nightingale base with dipper for a while <3 doggo family, even if p!acho has the family tree completely messed up

acho also considered having a dog park / doggy play area built somewhere between the heron and nightingale bases but no one ever got around to doing that :(

first big lore event: they go to a whirlpool. p!acho tries to go into the whirlpool and asks p!scott to lasso star and pull star back up. p!scott's response: "i feel like i would lose my lasso. and my brother." p!acho: "THAT'S what you're concerned about?!" (LITERALLY archetypical sibling banter)

p!acho then asks p!owen to lasso star in and both get dragged into the whirlpool. p!scott: "i'm not losing my brother again" *LITERALLY JUMPS INTO THE WHIRLPOOL AFTER STAR* (clip)

they immediately try to look for each other after everyone got yeeted out of the whirlpool

time skip: p!scott gets kidnapped by cultists. p!acho practically loses it. it's really telling that p!apo (guy that would start a fight with anything at the drop of a hat) has to stop star from going directly into the cultists' base to solo a reacue mission (apo episode)

p!acho: "i don't want to lose anyone. not again."

also: rescue mission time. the two brothers are the first pov characters to kill anyone in the series. also sweet reunion

time skip to halloween event (scott was not there due to life series reasons):

half the server gets trapped in the nightmare realm. p!acho's first nightmare message? "your brother hates what you have become. he regrets ever getting to know you again." (link to all messages)

star IMMEDIATELY STARTS HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN IN 4K. like, my guy believed that. several people reacted badly to the messages but no one else started breaking down by message numero uno and that message was THAT.

time skip again due to scheduling conflicts: big lore time

p!acho goes on big lore quest that is potentially fatal due to Trauma Reasons. decides to leave p!scott with all the money star has (over 100k, richest guy on the server at the time, like holy heck) + dipper + really freaking sad letter/intended last message

p!scott gets the letter. IMMEDIATELY tries to go after star. zero hesitation. potentially fatal? nah, who cares, brother in danger is the important bit

"i'm not losing my brother again. once was more than enough."

(also it's heavily implied that p!scott's abandonment issues were indeed started by p!acho leaving the house without a note and basically going missing in action for over a year soooo)

p!scott is the only person p!acho has ever entrusted with the knowledge of why star left the isles without a note and what happened afterward (aka the Trauma Reasons star went on that quest in the first place)

[for context, p!acho left the isles because star never felt at home there. on ao3, we call that the A+ Parenting tag. and now you know]

and guess what? dingdingding, the quest was all for nothing and was basically a trap all along! only one brother can live (like we all predicted this but our hearts still DROPPED)

reaction? THEY LITERALLY TRIED TO DIE FOR EACH OTHER like zero hesitation At All

p!scott is pretty much the first to volunteer and makes a grand ol' pre-self sacrifice speech and basically just. tries to pull the archetypical c!scott move

but this time? he fails.

p!acho pushes him out of the way of the death trap and takes the fall. literally in this case

yep, one brother got impaled in a spike pit and the other could do Nothing but watch it happen and is traumatized forever

as i said: doomed by the narrative. everyone and their mother knew only one brother would survive the series but most of us Predicted the Wrong One

anyways, canonical survivor guilt ahoy, p!scott made a grave and did adopt dipper. and then has to break the news to everyone

"i've spent the last week just… sticking to myself, thinking… i was ready and… now i don't know if i am. but i mean, i can't blame them, what do they want me to do? put on an ad in questbuy? hey, my brother's dead! don't ask questions! it's just like every time someone asks me… i'm reminded of how much i failed. i have to relive that moment again."

as i said, traumatized forever.

and then my guy brought out his ~25 pet kangaroos as a coping mechanism so people would ask him about those instead of his trauma.

iirc according to the writer's room behind the scenes stream, p!acho would have side-eyed the kangaroos so bad (which is 100% sibling behaviour)

so you see, for much of the series, p!acho would talk to the stars as "starlore", with the stars representing an important character from their year+ away from the isles (long story, solo lore stuff)

by the end of the series, the same tradition has passed on to p!scott (and p!graecie), this time with p!acho :(((

and at the end of the series, p!scott is deciding to leave the isles because it was what p!acho would have wanted to do :(

Today was better!

She let me clip two nails with clippers. I just took off millimeters but still!

It looks like I have made the Dremel scary though and will have to go back to turning it on away from her.

But I took her to the dog park and her recall was better than ever. I called her off running to meet a dog that she enjoyed playing with, and from the gate when some dogs were leaving-an exciting time.

I have also decided to visit my grandma with her in a few weeks. She will be stressed but I think one night will give me a good idea of what we will be dealing with when we move in August.

She also is digging in her sand box, and not the yard! Such a good girl!

We are staying at a hotel for two weeks and this was Dory day #4! The lobby if busier and noisier than it has been all other days combined! She has learned that not barking and growling at strangers gets her treats and doing so while sitting next to me gets her little bits of egg. We were asked if she was a service dog today and that was a good feeling.

My little sunshine girl ☀️

This beautiful soul has taught me so much in the last 3 years. She came to me with a horrific backstory but you would never have guessed it by meeting her. There’s not a minute of the day that she isn’t happy and wagging her tail.

She’s 3 weeks out from having orthopedic surgery on her knee and she hasn’t missed a beat. She takes her daily walks and physical therapy like a champ even though I know she must be uncomfortable.

She has taught me to forgive my past and take every new day with a bright open mind. She’s taught me to take the pain and grow from it, and to push myself even when it’s uncomfortable. But most importantly she has taught me how to love unconditionally. She’ll always hold the biggest place in my heart ❤️🐾

Have you ever seen such cute puppies?

She’s a little old, a little blind, still adorable. 🐶

Merry Christmas!

Save the Date: Thursday, Dec. 5, 2019, is the Tenth Annual Celebrate Shelter Pets Day! On that day, we ask that you post photos and stories of your adopted pets to your social media, using the tag Celebrate Shelter Pets on Tumblr and #CelebrateShelterPets on other social media.

Remember: People are three times more likely to go to a shelter or rescue group if they know someone who has. On Dec. 5, be that someone!

Today at work I had to argue with a reacue who won't let a client adopt any animals from them because they have a 10 week old puppy (not from the rescue) who we refuse to neuter at 10 weeks. Because the puppy has to be neutered prior to the already spayed adult dog being adopted.

I'm wondering if these folks actually want to place dogs or if they just want religious compliance to their rules.

Hong Kong has a variety of different-looking tong gau (唐狗) - mixed breed, multibreed, mutty boiz, mongrels, take your pick. Whilst this is not a 100% faithful portrait of Miss Piggy, I used a photo of a waiting-to-be-adopted tong gau from Hong Kong Dog Reacue as reference and inspiration for this painting.

I am really proud of myself for this one ngl guys-

Why I like German Shepherd dogs even they're widely spoiled with bad breeding and have health issues and honestly are a handful to train and especially socialize (tbh I have theory that a gsd for 90% certainty even CAN'T be fully socialized to accept all dogs that cross their paths ) ??

But ye the answer is that they're still relatively easy dogs but still beautiful; like borzoi and doberman are gorgeous too but hunting dogs that are also big sighthounds?? Or dobbers, from what I've gathered they are even more challenging to train and there's also the ear issue because I prefer pointy ears on dogs and dobbers don't have them without mutilating a puppy :s also gods bless shepherd dogs for I know they will stick around humans unlike a hunting or retriever would..! (Of course shepherd can bounce too esp with higher prey drive but still) and "specializing" with one breed is easier, you know what to expect health and nature wise.

And also I love to support sensible breeders that health check their dogs because they are helping to save gsd that used to be and hopefully also will be badass war dogs that could do huge jumps and not have their hips collapse or etc .

And yeah I support greatly the "adopt don't shop" principle, but I also probably will stick with gsd because wow they are adorable idiots with purest hearts (and well, a friend is breeder)

My point is that I really like these babies.

Somebody got all muddy and had to have a bath. Somebody also does not like baths and tries to get out if it by being adorable. It does not work for her. She got a lot of treats to make her a bit more positive about baths though, so it wasn't all bad
