➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

Ahh okay that makes sense. Maybe just build a big pen? Or you could always sell him and get more NH later? Or build them a tractor.
We’ll just have to wait and see! I’d like to keep him but the breeding business comes first. He’s been listed for sale since he was 10 weeks old and so far no one has claimed him.
 
That is going to have to be my parent conference outfit too. I won't have time to come back home to change.
Omg I just died remembering my Halloween outfit :lau Complete with black tutu, black corset, black tights, black flats and more. You would kill me if you saw what I wore.
 
Never knew that lol but then again I've never made bread before and I'm only 24 so I guess I wouldn't have heard of it lol heard of yogurt machines.



Trained Gator today in the porch room (had to, it's the only low enough step for him to back onto. Kitchen steps down into it. He won't back on the stairs lol not enough room I guess. He sidewinds.) And it was so hot I almost got sick lol did backing up a step and lots of doggy pushups (sit, down, sit)
What's up with Gator? I missed all of this. :(
 
My rule of thumb is if I’m still hungry after a meal I get more veggies or fruits or lean protein.
But more often than not I’m bored or emotional, in which case picking up something to work on or exercise is the answer.

That's a good rule. So hard to tell what it actually is though.

For example, thought I was still hungry. Took so long to prepare the snack, dinner got to my stomach and I realized I was no longer hungry while eating it. Still finished it though cause I already made it but now I'm a bit overfull. Now I know for next time I guess. Had like a half cup or cup of cottage cheese, not entirely sure, scooped it with a spoon onto a plate, and 2 big sticks of celery cut up with peanut butter and halved grapes on it. It was good I just probably didn't need that and dinner. But oh well.

My friend wanted a snack so she took three hours to bake a whole loaf of homemade French bread.

Oh wow lol

Yes, apparently.
Last day of summer break so might as well live the good life.

Very true.

Wear shoes! Why are you working on a holiday? Double time pay?

Since I got a Kitchenaid, I gave away the bread machine. Same recipe, so much better. No idea why. Pizza dough, too!

Let the itty bitties out to run around the yard. Momma watched one and I watched the other. Put them back in the tractor. Those girls are mean. 1 week old and still tiny.

Awww

How old is he now?

What's up with Gator? I missed all of this. :(

Well, today I was just doing rear end awareness exercises because I think he has a bit of a weak end/back legs and core although I plan to do them from the beginning with any new puppy/dog I get. Basically just making him use his back legs cause often dogs don't really think about where their feet are or what their feet are doing. Plus it hopefully strengthens his back end and core some.

But all that said, he does have some health issues I think. For one, he is 6 1/2 years old and he's half Black Lab/half Great Pyrenees so I think that's getting old for bigger dogs but idk. Plus I think he's a bit overweight which isn't helping and he could stand to lose weight. But he's also got pretty advanced myositis atm and having secondary infections to go with it :( I think all the issues started maybe a year or two ago? I would have to look at the vet records to be 100% sure. But eye infections, ear infections, skin infection/hair loss most recently. Lost almost all of it but it's growing back now. Hot spots. And his eyes have been sinking further in :( he also has bad hips (partly genetics, vet took an x ray when he first hurt his leg 4 years ago and said one was a little loose but that it was genetic) and I think possibly an old knee injury but I'm not really sure. Thought it healed properly. Could also be genetics cause I think he has pretty bad confirmation and imo is a bit bow legged, they bend in. And he sways back and forth a lot when he walks. So who knows. Idk how much time he has left but then other days he's great :/ I am hoping this new immune booster and the kratom help him out and get more energy and/or be in less pain cause he also just has way less energy. Doesn't even want to go out sometimes. And the latest is him breathing heavy and drooling just going down the driveway or even before we start. I don't think he's doing so hot :(

But I'm hoping these exercises and the supplements will at least help a little bit. Plus I am hoping to start taking him swimming
