[chronic-creation]

This is my retired service dog, Meatball. She’s 9 years old and has been with me for 4 years. She got me through an abusive relationship, years with chronic illness and pain, and serious mental health issues and has never left my side.

She also has chronic health issues, like chronic ear infections and UTI’s that are usually cleared up without a problem using antibiotics and a vet visit. This time however; the antibiotics wouldnt work.

I’ve gone to the vet three times for the same issue in the past three months, including an emergency visit late at night due to swelling in the side of her face that will not go away despite how many antibiotics she’s been taking.

This infection just keeps coming back. After the most recent swelling and emergent vet visit, the doctor told us that without a surgery (that we can’t afford) Meatball isn’t going to recover. We’re trying stronger antibiotics for a long time to try to see if that helps and prevents the infection from spreading further, but without the proper scans and surgery, it’s likely that we’ll have to put meatball down to prevent her infection from spreading and killing her in an even more painful way.

I’ve made a gofundme to help raise money to help meatball get this life saving surgery so she can have a good senior life with me.

Gofundme - Save Meatball!

We finally explored the trails out behind my apartment and it was quite nice! There were other trails that break off from the main one, so we had plenty of variety in the walk. It’s gonna be hot all this week so I made it a point to get out early so we don’t die in the humid heat! Regardless we both worked up a good sweat and he loved chilling on the hardwood floor afterwards.

Was playin BG3 w/ partner in the other room and I asked them to look around the area they were in for me and they said that they couldn't do it at the moment because they couldn't use their left hand for the keyboard. I went to check wtf they were talking about and...

[sillyizzie]

kind of woman to have guard dogs with stupidly edgy names like Crusher and Slayer but they're both couch potato princesses who won't go to bed without their matching onesies

Friendly reminder from Lola, my fellow Americans, that today is election day and this may be the most important election of our lives.

Lola still has 6 years until she is eligible to vote, but she always is excited to tag along with her momma, even if she's not allowed in the polling place. You should be at least half as excited as Lola is.

I was suddenly overcome with the urge to draw a shelter dog I worked with years ago named Taffy. He was mischievous and didn’t really like other dogs, but he was a softie with me. Unfortunately, he passed away from cancer before he could find his forever home. At least I’m glad I helped make his last bit of time on earth full of love.

⚠️ SIGN to help our shelter dogs! ⚠️

🩵 At the moment, the Irish government is imposing a ban on XL Bully dogs. If you love dogs, please consider signing the petition to extend the rehoming of XL Bullies this October! 

🩵 “From October 1st 2024, new regulations will prohibit the importing, breeding, selling and RE-HOMING of XL Bullies.”  

🩵 Hundreds, if not thousands, of innocent dogs will be euthanised in shelters this October. If you agree with the ban, so be it, I will not argue with that. But the mass euthanasia that is about to take place is completely unnecessary and cruel. Shelters in Ireland do a fantastic job at rehoming rescue dogs and specific breeds to appropriate and responsible homes. There is simply no need to force shelters to euthanise these bully dogs when there are experienced people willing to rescue and train them. 

🩵 We are NOT advocating to stop the ban altogether. We are simply advocating to lift (or at least delay) the rehoming ban. 

🩵 Please sign the petition to save these dogs! Thank you and have a wonderful day x

bucky becoming a passionate defender of, and advocate for, so-called "dangerous" dog breeds and holding irresponsible owners accountable rather than the dogs who are very often abused, neglected and forced to become what people see as "vicious" or "aggressive" when in fact they are the exact opposite

he sees himself in those "dangerous" dogs everyone thinks will rip your face off if you look away for a few seconds, and even ends up rescuing one of them, a steel-and-blue pitbull with three legs and a whole load of scars from his days as a bait animal for dogfighting, aptly named sarge, who basically becomes his second shadow (the first is, obviously, his princess alpine) and follows him everywhere, comforting him during bad days and just being the sweetest, gentlest pup around, despite his harsh upbringing and severe neglect because people think all pitties are good for is aggression and offense

that, bucky has some experience with and can relate to
