Dogs

although animals do what they do and I'm fine with it, I'm okay if photos of the carnage weren't posted. .
I watched one of our stray cats we feed walk off with half of a squirrel. Where did the other half go? Who has the other half? Did someone mention going Dutch? Who split the squirrel in two?

I agree! No more of that.

I agree! No more of that.

It's a funny thing, isn't it? All the natural and needed violence that causes survival to continue. The reality is, it isn't G rated.
I appreciate your patience and understanding for a different view.
Honestly though, if everyone's okay with it, I can just look away. It doesn't kill me but it is stark and unusual. I don't mind being a minority. I'd be a horrible farmer by the way--I'd name them all and never give them up (and go broke).
My brother had a blast telling me how his pup hunted and obliterated a nest of bunnies. I didn't get the same proud feeling.
What a topic, eh?
Cheers.
Again, appreciate it.

Doggy sat our neighbors King Charles Spaniel (on the left) this last weekend. His name is Winston but by the weekend I was calling him Winny, Winston-Salem, Winnebago, and Winny the Poo.

looking back at my post #4972 Rusty looked so much better just 2 months ago. He’s been on some pain med since may. It’s really helped him eat and move around better.
I Thought it was odd that a Vizsla would decline so fast at only 14.5. He’s been dropping weight since February. He has been in n bad shape last couple days His belly felt firm and fuller than it should -so went to vet for 3rd visit this year today. Got X-rays and found he has a huge mass, likely cancer in abdomen. I’m heartbroken. Probably just a couple days before I have to do something. He’s been my baby and brew buddy since my first batch. Some happy pics including birthday cake in the kitchen

Been there. Good luck with that, it's heart-wrenching for a couple of weeks. Those vizsla are such great companions.

The dogs all got vegetable toys one Christmas . These were funny.

I'm thinking about you and your dog. I love these vizsla. Every one is a treasure.

Thanks for the thoughts. My baby Rusty died today only two days after the vet visit. I’m Heartbroken * and now angry with the vet

When an awesome dog dies, I think of this song. I saw this guy in concert, and he explained that Shannon was a dog belonging to the Beach Boys' Carl Wilson. Singer was friends with the beach boys. Shannon died at the beach, drowned. Greatly affected all of them.

My wife showed me a video last night of a man jumping into a pond to rescue his pup from a medium size gator... it was already underwater when he jumped in and wrestled it from the gators jaws. SCARY!

I have a Brittany (also Daisy), she loves to poke her nose at anything in the yard. Just a couple weeks ago she was greeting a opossum that was on the fence. The critter did not know what to think when she stuck her nose on its behind

photo below was after the ball rolled away from her, this dog can give some serious side-eye and disapproving looks.

Looks like my late Clairabelle. After years I was able to get another Brittany, Porter

...new puppy.

Had to say goodbye to one of my brew-pups. She was 15 and was always around on brew day ready for a spoonful of warm, sweet mash to lap up and clean up any grains that I spilled when milling. Decoction mashes we’re her favorite since there was always a mess to clean up. Here she is on her last brew day. Rest easy ole’ girl.

Ours wolfed down half a bag of spent grains once. She crapped 'breakfast bars' for a week.

My 2 boys, the bigger fluffball is still a puppy, just turned 1 and still growing.

I heard that song the first time when I was about 12, and have remembered it ever since. Makes me bawl every time I hear it.

Here is our rescue girl Shelby; also known as Brewdog. I have an old recliner in the garage, where I sit to update notes, read HBT, smoke, play games, and just have me-time. On brew days I'll tell her we're brewing, and after breakfast she immediately gets herself settled in the chair, leaving just enough room for my fat butt. To the best of the shelter's knowledge, she's a german shepherd/pit bull cross; very protective of the house, absolutely adores her older sister lab/pit bull cross, and has to be next to me at all times. Love this girl.

Our little foodie has been to the vet to get a lump and two teeth removed.

Vet reckons it wasn't malignant She's 12 years now. Fit as a fiddle. Wife makes her homemade food.

 

[BongoYodeler]

Callie, a Pound rescue, we that we adopted as a puppy, part Lab part Hound as best we could tell. She lived to the ripe old age of 16 before we finally had to let her go around 2010. This pic is from her younger days, she loved the water.

what's the white meat/dark meat situation on those birds?

they look a little more substantial than your average fryer hen

Classic Florida. At my old home in Pembroke Pines, we used to get sand cranes that my dogs wanted to chase. Looks like your neighborhood survived Hurricane Ian.

Just adopted this guy over the weekend. We’re still kind of workshopping the name, but we think it will be Kobe.
