I haven't seen the others, but she did show up yesterday with a couple other dogs I've never seen before. Maybe she found a new pack?That's great! If this girl is doing fine, likely the others are too.

For anyone who is following this thread, my girl is now entering her second heat
get her a new home with someone you trust, maybe who you caan visitWelp...I'm at a new crossroads.
My girl's mama got pregnant again and now I have one of her puppies... making her my girl's half sister. She's probably about 6-8 weeks old, if I had to make a guess. She has teeth and can eat solid food.
Now here comes my dilemma. I had bought a house early last month, and later in the month, rescued a neglected 8-year old retired breeder Golden Retriever.
My plan was to wait a year or 2 before adding my 3rd and final dog, and I was hoping for that dog to be a German Shepherd between the ages of 6 months and 2 years.
When I brought home this puppy yesterday, my plan was to do what I was originally going to do with my now 15 month old girl who this whole thread is about, and find her a new home, but I'm afraid that the same thing is going to end up happening.
Should I find this puppy a new home after getting her wormed and vaccinated, or should I keep her?
I think this is a question only you can answer. Sultry, so you want to keep this puppy, or do you want to stick to the plan?Should I find this puppy a new home after getting her wormed and vaccinated, or should I keep her?
I guess that's the thing, I'm really on the fence about this. Looking to hear arguments for or against it.I think this is a question only you can answer. Sultry, so you want to keep this puppy, or do you want to stick to the plan?
honestly, i get that you had a plan and wnated to follow it, but as a famous painter once said: there's no mistakes, only happy little accidents (i think this was the quote? idk tho)I guess that's the thing, I'm really on the fence about this. Looking to hear arguments for or against it.
She does not know about my zoo side, and I don't ever think I can reveal it to her. As for the other question, I really don't know if I'll ever be able to find an answer.Oookkk.
Good news on thre pup.
The girlfriend part, to cite "The Eagles"
This could be heaven, this could be hell.
Thing is. Does she knowcabout your zoo part? If not... What are your options and intentions?
No, not need to answer here, but you totally need to think about it.
Life is fun...
So beautifulBeen working on recall a ton! She almost has "come" downpat, just need to work on distractions. She has "sit" mastered, she'll do "lay" and "high five" but only when I have a treat in hand. Loose leash walking is a different story...mostly is good but she tends to go a little crazy! Here she is today after a walk:View attachment 374021
Yes, I imagine so as finding a girlfriend who is *also* zoo would be like winningvthe lotery.She does not know about my zoo side, and I don't ever think I can reveal it to her. As for the other question, I really don't know if I'll ever be able to find an answer.
At this point in my life I have more or less accepted this as my fate. And I am fine with it too as I am not interested in finding a girlfriend. I have no need to, I'm getting too old for sex so having a girlfriend is a waste of my precious time now. (I hope this thread didn't take a dark turn.)I read a post somewhere online before memorial day where a certain person was kind of lamenting how if he died, the only way he'd even be found is if the smell got too bad and the neighbors started to complain...

She's going to be 9 in March but I've only had her since last FebruaryDamn. Those are quite some changes indeed.
Not really bad, actually. But make sure you stick to the present life and *enjoy* it for the sake of all.
And, congrats on the "new ape"While I am not a fan of those, I know that, when it is your own, it is best thing ever. Even if it is a life chore too. Best wished on that.
And obvious sadness about your golden news. That is never rasy to cope. How old is she?
I’m sorry what?You might suggest masturbating the dogs to your wife, just as a measure to relieve them when they're in heat. That's not so crazy an idea that most normals would burn you at the stake for it, and you can see from her reaction if she would be accepting of zoo in general.
I can't even imagine how I would start that conversation.You might suggest masturbating the dogs to your wife, just as a measure to relieve them when they're in heat.

I can't even fathom that you are serious here. This is terrible advice. Many people have to hide their zoo side even from their partners or else massively risk loosing it all. The time to bring it up is before you get married and have a child. Otherwise unless you walk in on your partner mid sex with an animal you are risking everything.Hiding your zoo from most people I get, but from your spouse? For the rest of your life? That sucks. That's a big deal. So I figure he should at least try to find out how his wife feels about it. This is a relatively safe way to do that.
That is great news. Congrats to you and your golden, plus the rest of the family since I'm sure they're happy about it too.Happy update...my golden is still alive and doing better than ever. Better still, she's finally heartworm free!
Ethical to spay them because they're horny?...no. I'd say that, that is an unethical reason to spay.On a side note, I'm honestly wondering if it would be best to get my younger dog spayed. When the two go in heat, they take turns jumping and jumping each other since they no longer can have their sexual needs fulfilled. As much as I am against spaying them, would it be more ethical of me to just do that? I feel like they're almost being tortured when they're in heat.
I agree. It's a decision that should be made long before you consider marriage and starting a family.The time to bring it up is before you get married and have a child. Otherwise unless you walk in on your partner mid sex with an animal you are risking everything.
Better yet, suggest she does it."Honey, i'm going to finger our dog to help her get off during heat".![]()
I also agree with this but find it might be a little suspicious to her that his dogs have been sexual mature for a long time...and yet, it's only now he's worried about them being sexual frustrated/in need of release? If she brought that up, the only option is to admit you've been pleasing them yourself up until now, or sound like a jackass saying you've never noticed or thought of it before.Hiding your zoo from most people I get, but from your spouse?
