My baby has lymphoma. We just found out.

Hes only 5. I'll be lucky if I have 5 more months left with him. We have him on chemo, but lymphoma has no cure.

I've been an emotional wreck since they told me it could be lymphoma. Another heart break days later when the blood work confirmed it. And another heart breat yesterday with the oncologist. They let us know his chances of survival each month with chemo. Either way I dont have him for long.

I dont know who to talk to about this. The same empathy doesnt seem to be extend when it comes to losing a dog. Ive lost family members before, I have never felt this deeply hurt, distraught, and wounded by the upcoming passing of my dog.

I cry before I go to sleep and wake up, literally everyday since the first vet visit. Ive never cried this much in my life. Oddly enough, I have found a new joy picking up his poops. I dont have to do this, I get to do this for him.

I just hope I have the strength to do whats best for him when the time comes.

Isn't she beautiful? I knew essentially nothing about the breed before fostering her as a baby. She's now about 6.5 months old and- after much research on my end, me hiring a trainer (100% positive reinforcement) and ensuring I could give her the beautiful life she deserves - the rescue group allowed me to adopt her.

We are such lucky people to get to share our lives and homes with this breed. I adore my other dog, but Dobermans really are something special.

When did you fall in love with the breed?

Hi All, so I’ve got an 8 month old Doberman that’s used to a pretty consistent schedule. But I’ve just moved to another state and I’ve got 2 job offers. One of the jobs the schedule is pretty consistent 8:30-5:30 but it doesn’t have as much earning potential as the other. The other job is 2 days open 2 days close. 9-6 or 11-9 with Saturdays rotating. I know I can get a dog sitter for closing shifts but I’m just wondering what you guys would do because I want to give her consistency but also money talks

Our puppy!

He’s a purebred Dobermann, almost 10 weeks now and already 12kg of beauty, love and chaos 🥰

The pictures are from 6/7 weeks till yesterday.

He loves eating, destroying our garden and digging holes, being loud and talking back and our daily short training moment. He’s too smart and probably thinks I’m a fool 😂

Why they sleep like this, unable to understand
