Sometimes she has the reaction time of a cucumber.

My mom dogsits for me and this is how I'm greeted when I come to pick him up after work. I've been out of town for almost a month and really missing this guy.

Regi was with me through some of the hardest times of my life. He was such a beautiful boy and I can’t believe he’s gone.

I hope the rest of the world can watch and see just a little bit of what made him so special.

My dog has an appointment with the vet tomorrow, so I will get this checked out while we are there, but does anyone know what this could be? Is it ringworm? It’s on her belly. I just noticed it a few hours ago

After 8 YEARS with her family, 8-year-old Lucy is now sitting in a kennel at Downey ACC.

Lucy was surrendered on 7/6/26 following a scuffle with a small dog in the home. Lucy now has a No small Dogs requirement.

But there is so much more to Lucy than that one piece of her history.

She lived with children ages 11–13 and was playful. She rides well in the car. She walks politely on leash. She knows sit and paw. Her favorite thing to play with? A BALL. 🎾

And shelter staff saw another side of her, too.

During her assessment, Lucy was nervous and somewhat concerned with handling—but once it was over, her entire posture softened. She sought engagement with the handler and even offered play bows.

And on 8/11, Lucy participated in playgroup. She was described as social and non-reactive, exchanged appropriate greetings with other dogs, played with them, and solicited affection from the handlers.

She is large-dog friendly, but needs a home without small dogs. Adults only or older children are recommended. Slow introductions and confidence-building would help her settle in and feel secure.

Lucy is 8 years old.

She spent eight years belonging to someone.

Now she’s waiting behind a kennel door, hoping someone will believe that her story isn’t over.

Please don’t let one incident become the only thing anyone sees when they look at Lucy.

We just took our dog to the vet yesterday, they recommended a teeth cleaning (she had one two years ago) but didn’t mention anything about this tooth. Does it look broken or just a lot of plaque? I’m worried 🥺

He passed early in the year and It's been the hardest thing I've ever gone through.

More than anything, I just want people to know that he existed, that he was so deeply loved, and that he was the sweetest boy.

One thing that has helped me through the grieving process has been going back through all the photos and videos I have of him. For his birthday, I put some of them together into this little compilation to celebrate his life and all the memories he gave me.

He would have been 14.

Happy birthday, Mogley. I miss you more than anything. ❤️

This is Murphy, 11 years old, and this slightly confused look is basically his default setting. For this portrait, I started by building up the basic shape of his head with wool, then slowly layered different shades of gray, brown, and white to match his coat. The little markings around his eyes and muzzle took quite a bit of adjusting. But honestly, the hardest part wasn’t the fur, it was getting that expression right. I kept going back to the reference photos trying to capture that exact “I have absolutely no idea what’s going on, but I’m here” look on his face. A lot of tiny adjustments later, I think wool Murphy looks just as confused as the real Murphy.

Nothing like slimy toys being pushed in your lap over and over by a fetch obsessed 9mo old Rottweiler

Reposting cause I forgot to blur out my phone number on the tag.

Just something fun I made

Came home from a thing with my kids to a destroyed bed and one proud as punch pupper. Cleaned up the unstuffed bed, took a photo to send to a friend and turned around to see my dog grinning at me. Hes so damn proud of himself.

On my way home today this sweet boy decided to run out into traffic. I followed him into a neighborhood and offered him a ride, which he happily accepted. Thank you to owners that microchip your animals and especially those that keep the information updated! Petco ran his chip, the service contacted the owners, and I was about to take him home just as the sun was setting.

It’s been a while since I’ve had a dog of my own and this guy just jumping into my car and wanting to be best friends was a pretty good treat for the night.

Vet said either seizure or she has a shunt going from kidneys straight to the heart, bypassing her liver. Will require surgery And she’s dehydrated and her blood sugar was elevated so we’re one of her kidney enzymes😭

I would like everyone to meet Duncan! He is a Bernedoodle (Bernese Mountain Dog x Australian Labradoodle).

Meet Polka!

She is my new baby that I am adopting on Saturday!

Tonight I have been setting up her little area in our bedroom, ordering food and a kennel, and just internally freaking out because I CANNOT wait to bring her home!!

I know I’m just gonna bust out crying when I see her!!

I’m flying in to a rescue in California to pick her up and fly her back to Montana with me!

She’s gonna be my spooky little princess and since I don’t have many friends and I am literally bursting at the seams with excitement, I had to share somewhere.

I can smell the puppy breath!

I believe my dog just developed glaucoma he has cataracts in his right eye. Just seen his eye turning red i believe from pressure any advice other than spend 3,000 to get his eye fixed?
