J did you give neko split or whole antler? The one i got for b was split and she made a huge dent in it in no time!
― tehresa, Sunday, 6 October 2013 21:06 (ten years ago) link
what do you mean by split? like split lengthwise? her one is whole but short, about 6 inches
― smoove operator, Sunday, 6 October 2013 22:08 (ten years ago) link
Cut in half, like thishttp://hungryhound.com/wp-content/uploads/antlers-splitwhole-300x199.jpg

Actually if there is worry about hardness, you could try a split one with neko. But obv it won't last as long.

Baby bear is being so cute and lovey today. I feel bad that i have to torture her with a bath soon :(
― tehresa, Sunday, 6 October 2013 23:47 (ten years ago) link
oh no her one is def a whole one
neko was really good at the little dog park near our old house today. i get so nervous about her around other dogs, so we walked along the fence and the 6 dogs there seemed cool so we went in and she was really good! didn't play too rough and even left the little dogs alone.
― smoove operator, Monday, 7 October 2013 01:41 (ten years ago) link
has she previously had issues with other dogs or are you just being cautious til you get to know her better?
― tehresa, Monday, 7 October 2013 02:18 (ten years ago) link
either way I'm glad she had fun!
― tehresa, Monday, 7 October 2013 02:19 (ten years ago) link
just a cautious thing, mostly, but she DID almost eat a little dog at her last adoptive home... so...
she was being kenneled for a long time, so i figured she's mostly ok, but it's good to be careful. i worry about her getting hurt but i also worry about her hurting another dog - huskies are known for playing really rough (i have the scratches and bruises to prove it).

oh she's so wonderfully mischievous! Basil is not allowed to watch that video! It would give her ideas ;)
On Monday we are meeting a new dog sitter called estella and i just want to tell her she spelled her name wrong!

I've been watching the walking dead so maybe she thought she needed to stand guard.

oh man we had such a good day at work yesterday! i figured it out - i give her half her breakfast and then take the other half to work and dole it out very slowly over the course of the day. i was unable to leave her unleashed for the entire day, and after her cursory sniff of the entire workshop, she quickly figured out that if she lay or sat down near me, she would get food on a regular basis. no whimpering or whining or being a pain!!
― smoove operator, Saturday, 12 October 2013 17:46 (ten years ago) link
yay!
― tehresa, Saturday, 12 October 2013 21:25 (ten years ago) link
that should say i was ABLE to leave her unleashed for the entire day duh
― smoove operator, Saturday, 12 October 2013 22:43 (ten years ago) link
Hah i didn't even catch that!
― tehresa, Sunday, 13 October 2013 01:43 (ten years ago) link
I have secured basil's Halloween outfit after several attempts. First costume (black cat!)would have been awesome but i couldn't find the right size :(
For option 2 i got the one for dogs up to 90 lb dogs but all the measurements were good and it said labs, boxers, etc. it was lolhueg so i went down a size (one of the breeds on this tag is French bulldog!).and it fits perfectly. It is a Medium. The first, she would have needed a xxl!

silly basil is afraid of scarecrows!

I have been away for 3 days and her sitter has sent a few adorable pics and it's making me so wistful!
― tehresa, Saturday, 16 November 2013 02:43 (ten years ago) link

neko update?
― tehresa, Monday, 9 December 2013 13:02 (ten years ago) link
she's doing ok - lots of health problems, which has been worrisome; finally making significant progress on the bed-territory issue; still getting into the occasional frenzy and turning vicious O_o
― smoove operator, Tuesday, 10 December 2013 03:35 (ten years ago) link
She is so lucky to have you!
― tehresa, Friday, 13 December 2013 19:28 (ten years ago) link
Today is basil's first adoptaversary! She got a bottle of puppy champagne (aka squeaky toy) and is relaxing on her huge new bed (early xmas present from grandma). <3 her so much!

I promise she is happier with that toy than she looks in the pic
I think she was pissed at me for making her pose with it instead of playing!
She looks totally focused on it, super intent. Happy forever-home-day, Basil!

basil has been so happy hanging out with my sister's dog in a big house full of people...I'm starting to think she needs a buddy. If only i had more space/money :(
― tehresa, Friday, 27 December 2013 13:57 (ten years ago) link
So it turns out the crazy lady who yelled at me does this to others, too! The other night a neighbor and i were talking about dog stuff while our pups played and i mentioned it and she said the same thing happened to her! That woman must be very, very unhappy.
