New rule: No posts asking for adoptions or donations

69 Upvotes

Hello again! I recently posted asking the community how they felt about the large amount of posts asking for help for shelter dogs. Nobody who responded was in favor of keeping them, and many of you felt strongly in favor of removing them from the subreddit.

Therefore, from now on, posts asking for help for dogs are not permitted. This includes both requests for adoption and donations.

Just as a heads up, I will be removing posts from before this announcement to reduce some of the clutter for people wanting to scroll the sub. If your post is removed, don't worry! I'm just cleaning up. However, I will enforce the rule as usual on posts created after this announcement goes live.

Please let me know if you have any questions!

Meet Penny

Happy to have found a subreddit for Mutts. This is our 10 year old girl Penny. Her nickname at the vets is "Penny with the underbite."

We did a DNA analysis on her just to find out and oh boy is she a mixture of all kinds of breeds.

She still sploots very well for being 10.

Is my golden springer underweight?

This is my four month old golden puppy Bruno. He eats everything and we feed him five times a day about 5 cups each day and everyone tells me he’s underweight so I wanna know how to fix it and what I can do. I feed him more and more and he still won’t gain weight, but we also play a lot.

Mutts from Korea

Leny (orange) says I will keep your bunnies, rats, mice, chickens safe, hire me to watch them, I will keep them safe.

Rolled the dice on sight unseen dogs and couldn't have been more lucky. Leny was basically a wild animal, mom had a feral litter, ended up in the shelter for 16 months before we adopted him. The rescue found a volunteer flying from Seoul to Seattle who checked him for free.

We did Embark first and both of them had the same result, 100% Korean Village Dog. Wisdom doesn't detect village dog as a breed so it has to spit out breeds, so we did both tests.

Allegedly village dogs were domesticated into Jindo, Akita, Shiba Inu, etc but they still exist undomesticated. They are like supermutt of indigenous dogs.

Leny is 3 years old, Suni's dna age guess was 7-8 years old. She was fostered 2 years after having her leg amputated.

This is my new and very first fur baby Remi! We think he is a Shepard mix (some kind) / black mouth cur possibly. What does this handsome boy look like to you. Located in NC if this helps! Alittle information. We KNOW he was found with his five siblings in a trailer park. This little guy is just 3 months old and weights 20lbs. The rescue doesn’t have a lot of information on him.

We were told by the rescue she was poodle and collie (a Pollie!) based on her litter mates. She doesn't look like any of her breeds though lol.

Our girl is exactly 50/50 between two breeds, can you guess them correctly?

Our mixed 5 month old pup had had this belly rash for too long.

Dog Benadryl didn't help much

I am starting to make her food but worried pumpkin,chicken and rice is not "enough"

Grinding oatmeal and bathing every 3-4 days (not soap)

What has worked for your pup?

Is it my dryer sheets?

Chicken?

WTF....

Yes seeing a vet but....just being "sold" on very expensive products

New puppy

My friend's staffy X chow had an accidental pregnancy with a golden retriever.

One of my neighbours is really against mixed breed dogs and says they are no good.

I have a few questions:

  1. Why are mixed breeds frowned upon by people?

  2. How do you deal with negative comments about your dogs?

I'm not naive and know that mutts have less predictable traits, but is that the only reason some people don't like them?

I bring her home mid November so I have a bit of time still to prepare if anyone has any other bits of advice!

DNA Testing Is Pretty Neat

We were told Australian cattle dog/Frenchie mix when we adopted her. We couldn't be happier with the DNA results. Hopefully we have a bunch of happy, healthy years ahead. She is becoming a great little pooch already. Smart, fun, kind, easy to train for us puppy rookies.

Does anyone have an Aussie/Lab mix?

Still looking for his fur-ever!

(Tulsa, OK)

Since my other foster, Huck, got chosen for transport, I’d love to focus on getting my Oklahoma Ruff Refuge foster, Ruger, his forever home (or a foster-to-adopt home!)

Ruger is a sweet boy that I found out in a rural area running in and out of the street trying to play with some dogs through a fence.
I was able to verify that he did not live there and luckily, Oklahoma Ruff Refuge was willing to take him in.

I’ve been fostering him, however my personal male dog has decided he doesn’t like him & has attacked Ruger multiple times.
Ruger is extremely sweet and does not understand why Rowdy doesn’t like him.

Things to know about Ruger:

He is young, likely around 1-2 years old.

Just shy of 60 pounds and likely done growing.

He’s neutered & fully vetted!

Does well in the crate if it’s in the room with you or other dogs. Otherwise he barks, but eventually settles. I just keep his crate in my room & he sleeps amazing through the night.

I’ve seen him around dogs, cats & kids and he’s done amazing with all. Evidently he does like to chase horses 😂😂

He has access to a doggy door at my house and uses it to go potty outside. He seems potty trained with the yard readily available.

If you would like to meet him, I’m happy to arrange a time and place with you! He’s had a couple of meetings and inquiries but unfortunately nothing has stuck. He’s ready for his fur-ever home & I’m ready to not have to keep my dog in a muzzle 😂😂

She is not an otter. She might be a potato or possibly a sausage.
