If only we could throw our ethics out the window and breed doodle dogs, I'd have the ultimate wedding of my dreams and no financial problems at all!


I'd laugh if it wasn't so painfully true.

One of my degus is really sick...and I'm not taking him to the vet. I mean, I don't have the money, and the only exotics vet is over an hour away. So I feel guilty, as usual when I see one of my small pets really sick, but there's only so much I want/can do.

And of course, it's not my really old degu (who's around 5 or 6 years old), but my young not-quite-two year old goo.

Sorry, Erin. Is there anything you can do to help him/her at home?

Besides keeping him warm and comfortable...not really. They don't like being held/petted...so I'm just making sure his room is quiet and warm.

Any idea what's wrong with it?

How long do you think a Golden can sit outside in the snow when it is 25 degrees? :popcorn2:

Lenny WILL NOT COME IN. I have begged, cajoled, offered snacks, taken the others out to walk in with him, and called him in the sweetest voice I could muster up.

Would it be wrong to let him freeze out there? Honesty...I am DONE. :nono:

Joyce, how long did he stay out there the other night? He must really like the snow and obviously it doesn't bother him. You are having a crazy time with them all right now. But of course our Precious Darlene is perfect. I love her.

Well, of course Darlene is the perfect one. :)

The other night he stayed out 45 minutes. This time it was an hour and a half. I had DIL come to den door, which had them all barking and Lenny came in to see what was going on. :rolleyes2:

Here is another confession about him: I yelled at him, "You Prick! Stay outside if you want!" And I gave him the finger. :doh:

After I posted, it occurred to me that you might not find it so funny. It's only funny because I've totally done it... on more than one occasion :oops: . I love 'em, but they know how to push my buttons.

He won't freeze to death. He has a lot of hair and if he was truly cold he'd come in. Maybe get a couple blankets and put them down for him to sit on. Some dogs just like cold. :|

Not that kind of pallet. :doh: A pallet made of blankets. Something for him to lay on. Nevermind the moment has passed. It doesn't sound funny anymore. :rolleyes2: :wink:

My "little" Ollie dog likes the cold too. She is about 12" tall and the shoulders, we had 10 1/2" inches of snow on the ground last winter & she tromped around in it like she knew what she was doing. We have a couple inches of ice on the ground right now & she wont stay in the house.
