We've watched her dogs before, it's been no problem.
She comes by last night at 10:30 with them, tells me the one has arthritis and has to take this like... THC supplement or something to manage the pain. Now I'm super friggin' paranoid that she's going to croak while the friend is away and I don't know what to do -_-. She's just an older little pupper so it's natural but it's also kind of stressful.

Like this morning as soon as my wife left for work the dog started acting kind of funky, like she had cottonmouth and wasn't acting really coordinated and I was like "omg is this it???"

dont be paranoid over shit like this, just give the dog the supplement and its kay.

Been watching dogs for a while, and they go comit, cause they eat the cat food or they just sit on a couch all day cause I dont fucking walk all of them at the same time but they have to learn to roll with the punches of not being fucking pampered by their owners for a couple of days and it will end up fine.

Well, if it does, be sure to put it in the freezer to preserve the body.

I don't think I'd want to tell the friend while she's on her trip, since that's a lot of stress. So then what do you do... get the body cremated ?

Freeze it, man. Then let the lady decide what she wants to do with it when she gets back. Hypothetically.

she does this thing where she stands there and starts to lift up her front paw and then loses her balance and puts it down but it doesn't look like she's trying to move.

And I don't know if that's because she's on this pain killer thing or if she's having a stroke

Both of her dogs are stressing me out actually. Her boy dog has been lying on the couch all morning and neither of them have eaten anything.

Gonna be a rough four days -_-

Also we've got the Friheten couch from Ikea that is a pretty decent sized couch and the boy dog is chilling on my side where I normally sit and I can't get comfortable :(

WELL I can't because of my job. Also even if I were allowed to I would feel bad since they are prescription and that costs money.

i forgot to mention, good luck trying to take care of those dogs. i would imagine it is a nightmare. i was never a fan of trying to give my dog or cat medication it needed but it had to be done (cat was more willing) she was a nice cat and very easy patient at the vet.

Thank you so much.

My wife usually plays vet for us but she is working so I'm home alone here. Actually saw how my friend did it, doesn't look *too* hard, just roll it up in turkey then keep feeding them turkey until they swallow the pill.

So yeah friend said she's been doing that for a couple of years now but she can't take the medication for it because of her liver.

Animals getting old is so sad.

That's not on you.

The dog already had pre-existing conditions.

Just follow the directions for the medicine.

Have the Animal Coroner hold the body until she comes back.

Then she can decide.

NEVER EVER take drugs unless prescribed or absolutely necessary.

Yeah she's like "Oh by the way the dog has seizures for two to three minutes so you have to make sure she's not around anything sharp and just kind of hold her/pet her gently until it ends"

-_-

did you have to give the dog insulin shots??

Well, the girl has been doing better about going outside and taking care of her business but she also isn't eating very much. She's drinking a lot of water though which is good imo.

The boy is a little harder to deal with, he's not drinking a lot of water and he's just sleeping on the couch most of the time. But I just hand fed him some of his food so at least I know he ate about half of what she gives them per day so that's a good sign too I think.

...

Ugh. Can't wait for my wife to get home though, she's way better at taking care of dogs than I am.
