Dogs of VolNation and other pets that are inferior to Dogs

We lost Bell this afternoon. Lymphoma and renal failure and today you could tell she was ready to go. Called at least 20 vets looking for someone who could do at-home and thankfully one was able to fit us in.

When we walked through the shelter, she cowered in the corner and wanted nothing to do with us. She wouldn’t let anyone take her to play and she was being bullied by her litter mates, so she was put all alone in her own cage. She had scars on her head from abuse as a puppy, but we took her as a challenge and gave her more love than she could’ve ever dreamed of. Early on, she was too scared to even go outside to pee and only tolerated being around my wife and I. In time, she blossomed into the best dog with so much personality. Unfortunately, hip dysplasia and crippling arthritis stole her best years and since she was 3 has really struggled to get around much. She stayed right by my wife’s side, keeping her company for the many months I have been away in training at various points. She and my kiddo were thick as thieves and I just hope my little one is old enough to keep some memories of her. We are so sad to see her go, but thankful we were able to have it done in the comfort of her home, spoiling her every minute until the last. Love you, Belly Bell.

Sorry to hear that man

I'm so sorry for your loss. It's been a rough time with me and my family losing our canine friend earlier this week.Bell sounds like my sweet hound dog Penny who died of similar issues last year. She was also a rescue that lived 7 years with me to the ripe old age of 16. I made sure she got to live a wonderful life in her senior years,and that she did.

I know that she appreciated you all and everything you did for her.She was a beautiful pup....

I really hate that for y'all. She sounds like a very special girl and it sounds she was lucky to end up with you.

Give your taker a hug from me! The Eejit Cat is almost settled into normalcy, but she’s very much an only cat. I can’t take any more of all those 3 am cat fights.

Dog sitting these two for a week now. Will have until Monday night.
They have been perfect guests and have gotten along well with Chloe, Romeo & Juliette.
I wish some of our previous human guests were as well behaved

Our little buddy Claire was here last night. Zoey kinda likes her, even though she banned me from my house for 5 days

They are girlfriend's GSDs. The one sleeping had slightly injured her leg (vet fixed the next day). The awake one is her brother, who lied down next to her and was worried about her. Very sweet dogs at home. A handful anywhere else !

Iirc, these are the same dogs at the pool, right? If so, they haven't aged a bit. Again, beautiful dogs!

Wow!

Wow!

And the puppies are the ones still with ears not fully up. They are bigger than their parents at 10 months old.

I thought I remembered pups.

I confess to speaking a polyglot of nonsense and actual languages to the cat in an infinitely variable series of tones and inflections.

That's what cat people do.
