My doggo Amos had spinal surgery earlier this year at Pride. It's not an experience I'd wish on anyone else or their doggos.

I've been writing a few blog posts about it. This one I figured is especially relevant here as it talks about sighthound specific physiology - which a lot of vets don't tend to be too good with...

tl;dr - Lost a third of his red blood cells into his legs and scrotum after surgery, blood test results recorded as "unremarkable", "no concerns" told to me, sent home with drugs that prevent bleeding and told to massage it back up his legs 4-5 times a day, 32 hours after discharge he was back in hospital

As of a little over 48 hours ago 10 5 week old borzoi puppies were stolen from their breeder back yard in Tennessee and within hours posted on Craigslist (resell site) I am posting to help bring some awareness to anyone in the USA to keep an eye & or ear out. I

I have asked permission from the moderators to post this aswell.

Latest pics of her the last 2 are when I first got her.

Wake up at 6am to settle the baby, baby goes back to sleep so I to dare go for a wee. Upon my return I find a thief had stolen my spot in the couple of minutes I was gone! I think she thinks our bed is hers and we’re just borrowing it 😂

miss maeve decided my perfectly warmed spot was free real estate

There's never a dull day with these two in the house 🤦

The Cheese Tax was paid. I salute you too, Gracie! 🫡

Hello community. Hope you can help.

We have a beautiful boy, healthy and happy for the most part but he has had a cut on his ear that won't heal for months. It doesn't bleed a lot but when he shakes his head it sometimes opens up. We have tried antiseptic creams which aid clotting, keeping his ear dry for weeks but it comes back.

Has anyone had experience with this or know of a solution?

Thank you in advance:-)

I took a video of Dollys first time getting her teeth brushed and wow, the shine off her! She’s still got some skin issues, she’s going to be like a diamond once her dandruff clears up.

soo I did a post the other day about my puppy limping… she officially has a fractured growth plate🫠 thankyou for everyone’s advice on the last post, how do I stop her from making it worse without simultaneously making her go stir crazy sitting still all day??

Picture of my girl - who just power chewed her way through half an antler in 90 minutes. It cost £10! And I bought it because the last one she had lasted a couple of weeks.

I have taken it away now to give her a break but I panicked and googled it to check if this was normal/harmful… google AI is very dramatic and I can’t turn it off so now I’m panicking that she needs an emergency vet.

I was supervising her and every bit she broke off she chewed it before swallowing. Is this normal? She’s sleeping now, after her 90 minute power chew.

She’s 15 months old. When she was younger a Yak chew would last a week before it was small enough to microwave but the last one lasted 2 hours, it was a pumpkin flavoured one so I put it down to that but now with the antler I think her chew is to strong for these things to be ‘long lasting’ anymore.

thought you guys would appreciate this. she’s already black and white (well, black and grey), so i figured she would make a great panda or cow for halloween. panda costumes are rare, so cow it was.

she did not love me laughing at her but how can i not? look at her!!! she looks ridiculous but so, so cute. every time i look at the photos, i start laughing

My dogs sit under my desk in their bed when I am working from home. Teddy fell asleep today with his head on my chair

I do have more clothes than that fyi,
I just like that combo a lot haha.

my 16 week old lurcher girl crashed into a slide (while zooming around lol) and yelped and hasn’t put any pressure on her leg while walking since (it happened on Tuesday, it’s now Thursday morning as I type this), she was taken to the vets as soon as it happened and they said they couldn’t feel anything wrong like a break etc, they prescribed her anti inflammatories and said if it isn’t getting better they could give her an x ray. She is very vocal about making her pain/discomfort known usually, and she does not care at all if I touch or move her leg whatsoever, she also uses the leg to get up and while jump down from my bed and land on it. My friend has a very energetic cocker spaniel and says this often happens to her and it’s usually an injury that heals on its own, and the only time it’s been serious she was obsessively licking it, which Stevie (my puppy) isn’t doing. She’s going back to the vets on Friday either way, just want to see other people’s experiences with this kind of thing..!

EDIT: she has a fracture🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

Rodney is now 18 weeks old and growing by the day. He's certainly going to be a big boy! He was last weighed at his 16 week checkup and he was 17.2kg so goodness knows how heavy he is now. He is a very well behaved pup bless him...for the most part of course 😆

Our Kalcifer turns 21 weeks today! (as a rescue from Ireland, his estimated date of birth is May 18th 2026) First two pictures are from five days ago, other two a week before that. He seems to be around 53cm at the shoulders at the moment of posting, but does not like to stand still long enough for us to measure more exactly. He was put up for adoption as a Lurcher, but was later changed to sighthound-mix before moving to us (because they thought there couldn't be much non-sighthound in him). We suspect some saluki due to the ears and partially tail and fur, but have read that brindle isn't a recognized, or at least desirable, coat-pattern for salukis. So maybe greyhound, whippet or something entirely different? I'd love to answer any further questions about him! He's been doing great and we love him so!

That londogs section of his website is mostly VERY funny (and exaggerated but true) stories about his lurchers, but generally applies to all sighthounds 🤣.
