#UglyDogs
My close-up view looking at Simon, the handsome one-eyed tuxedo cat, sprawled on my chest and belly while I’m sprawled on a tan couch. I’m wearing a light green shirt and his chin is on my chest, with one of his front legs wrapped around my side.

It’s been 5 weeks (!) and Ronan’s respiratory symptoms are slowly improving 🤞 Monday is ultrasound to figure out why liver enzymes are so high. Meanwhile he’s enjoying frozen sweet potato in the Kong on these blazing hot days. #UglyDogs
Fluffy black border collie/Aussie mix lying on the ground with his head up, looking left. Ground is covered with grass that’s brown from the recent nasty heat and lack of rain. The base of a tree is visible behind him.

Ronan definitely not himself but he loves the beach so I took him to the great lake this morning and he managed a few zoomies

#UglyDogs Ronan still fighting nasty respiratory infection he picked up at the kennel. 2 rounds of antibiotics & steroids, now antihistamine. I’ve never had a dog with anything like this. Bloodwork yesterday; today I learned all his liver enzymes are off the charts. 2 are 20x higher than normal.

Ronan in clover. Despite being up to date with vaccines, he seems to have picked up kennel cough after being boarded recently 🤦🏻‍♀️

Handsome black Aussie/border collie mix sitting shoulder deep in red clover. The look on his face clearly indicates he has some opinions to share.

My boy Simon is having surgery tomorrow, he developed glaucoma in his right eye last fall which medication is no longer controlling :(
#UglyDogs please send thoughts and prayers for his healing and dealing with the inevitable cone 📡 😅

Thank you so much @minnesotagirl.bsky.social! Such a treat to get real mail, and this mail especially. Now comes the difficult decision of placement. Must carefully ponder…. #UglyDogs

‘Tis the (cottonwood) season #UglyDogs
What looks like tracks through a grassy lawn covered with snow, but is actually cotton from the cottonwood trees. Looking down lower legs to hiking boots with masses of cotton from cottonwood trees clumped on the toes, standing on a green lawn covered with more cotton. Looks so much like snow….

Hello bluesky! Jukiek_upstate from the other site here. Thanks @esp1371.bsky.social for the lift, looking forward to figuring out how things work. Until then, here’s Ronan in his favorite “belly up to the couch” pose:
Exceptionally cute border collie-Aussie mix, black with white tips on front paws and silver leg feathers, lying on his side with front paws outstretched, belly and legs pressed against the bottom of a beige couch. He’s on a large wool area rug, brick red with light blue, gold, and brown flowers and swirls. It sounds hideous but was actually quite lovely until the corner by his front paws somehow got shredded shortly after I adopted him many moons ago. The culprit has never been identified. It’s a mystery….
