Advice please.

Need sling for my 11yo greyhound. Arthritis in hip.

I’m 5’ 1”. Slings I’ve looked at appear to have handles that will be too long even if adjusted to the shortest length.

Any short people with greyhounds who can suggest a specific brand that you have used.

Thanks all.

Betcha didn't have money on the Catholic Church being the only institution with the spine to stand up to fascism this time round.
BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.
NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids
Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

22,000 Military families make so little that they receive SNAP benefits. 1.2 Million veterans get SNAP benefits because they are poor and can’t work. Fuck Republicans and their stigmatizong.

There are two sides to the argument about Democratic senators allowing a vote on ending a shutdown. Personally, I think it was a mistake.

The bigger mistake is allowing the story to dominate multiple news cycles and take the focus away from denied SNAP benefits and skyrocketing health care costs.

NEW: Following a ProPublica investigation, more than two dozen House Democrats are pressing the Trump administration to reverse a new Department of Veterans Affairs policy that makes it harder for male veterans with breast cancer to get health coverage.
Trump’s VA Made It Harder for Male Veterans to Get Treatment for Breast Cancer. Lawmakers Want to Fix That.
After ProPublica revealed changes to how the Department of Veterans Affairs covers men with breast cancer, House members demanded the agency reverse its decision. Separately, new Senate legislation would require the VA to be more transparent.

ICE has increased its spending on weapons by 700% since Trump took office.

You read that right — SEVEN HUNDRED PERCENT.

Trump is building his own personal military to terrorize American cities, trample on civil rights, and intimidate his opponents.
