Lovely to see you too!! (And no worries, I'm just glad they are still relevant and helpful!)

Yup! Our other pitbull, also a rescue, is on prozac. Took about 6 months to a year to get to a good stable place on it. The training piece is the other half of the equation, and this new foster has some issues that I've never dealt with before. But we're getting there! With love & drugs & time.

See? They are such boyfriends. Can't keep their mouths off each other.

If you can't donate it's ok, sharing so it reaches others is good too.
Have you ever heard of a dog being on ADHD meds? I never considered that one day I'd be in line at CVS to pick up my dog's and my own ADHD meds. What a world we live in. It keeps us both from screaming all day.

eustace hi!!! Happy to see you too! And thank you, he's a big beautiful baby boy and I know this people stop their cars in the middle of traffic to tell me so.

He is lovely and affectionate and extremely smart, he loves to learn tricks, but he also loves to eat seatbelts & leashes and is still learning to not play bite people & not scream all day. Training and evals cost money, and he isn't their only dog in this situation. If you want to donate please do.

When he was at the shelter, there was a nasty bug being passed around. He & the other dogs had extended quarantines, which seriously impacted some of their emotional and behavioral development. If you can spare it, the rescue group has several of those dogs who need specialized training and evals.

sorry for the late reply-- if you haven't already, you're welcome to share my links on tumblr! thank you!

Absolutely! Thank you!

Needless to say, this has been a very confusing time in my life and I'm glad to finally exist in the context

"Wow they're people too!" Is. Well, it hurts my heart, gosh.

Thank you, but my employer is not my healthcare provider or health insurance carrier. HIPAA does not apply here. Whether I disclose this fundamental aspect of my self won't open anyone up to a lawsuit, she just doesn't want some of the... less kind coworkers to find out. Every workplace has 'em.

(oh also please use alt text if you can and i'd love it if lots and lots of people volunteered to help others with alt text if able!)
