At that size kdogg he may be dealing with some early arthritis. You may want to try suppliments for it or talk to a vet but word to the wise the prescription nsaids like rimadyl or duramax for for dogs sometimes have renal damaging side effects.

I do think he likely has that, especially with how long his nails are and messing up his alignment or whatever, plus I think he has bad hips and I have given him occassional supplements but I keep forgetting to give it to him regularly. And I think he could possibly still have an old knee injury I need to ask about, my dad doesn't want to pay for surgery or physical therapy or anything :/

But anyway, I think he also has something systematic going on because the last year or two he's had a lot of infections all of a sudden, like the first bee sting he got his eye took a while to heal, and he has never had any health issues. So idk if it's related to the myositis or what because his crown has also gotten more and more pronounced and his eyes more and more sunken in, which could possibly be why he has more eye infections now. I'm worried he could be going blind or deaf. He needs a blood test but I think the vet is afraid of him.

But anyway, I have Dasuquin with MSM (which I'm not sure does much but I forget to regularly give it to him) and was giving him fish oil pills and probiotics for a while. Might start again. Was gonna try tumeric too.

Just combed, his back still needs to be furminated. He gets very tangley very fast.
Thank you. He’s the prettiest.

Maybe they need to get a comb lol he looks awesome

That's why I use the gallon jugs I'm on well water and when they get funky is about the time the sun has cooked them so they're cracking apart

These are gallon milk jugs, right? How do you modify them for the birds to drink out of?

My mom got all sorts of awesome pet stuff at the dump. Custom collars and holiday collars (Halloween, Christmas, etc.) and all sorts of stuff that tbh I'd buy myself guess I gotta get a puppy now


Kidding btw. This stuff will still be here whenever I do get one.

The funny thing is that wasn't even that bad or vulgar or whatever yet the whole thread is about a ducks penis yet yhat one specific post gets flagged

Maybe because if the religion aspect though?

But yes I know this post is accepted bc the person needs help with the duck but i just think it's funny they got upset about that one out of all of them

I used to draw lines with a sharpie now I just wing it lol

remember males get trimmed around 8mo old so you may have to compensate for a large comb
