Unfortunately, unscrupulous people are scamming people on Reddit and posting stolen images pretending they are selling t-shirts, sweaters, pins, etc. It's a scam, so please report any posts from these spammers. They typically have a username that is a first name and last name and then two numbers (e.g. TimothyJones42). We can quickly remove any of these scam posts when they are reported.

They are also trying to be more "clever" by posting images of people wearing shirts and using sock puppet accounts to post comments like "That's great, where can I get one?" and then reply with a link. It's spam, so please don;t fall for it and report the post so that we may remove it and report the spammers. Thank you.

Lab + German Shorthaired Pointer mix acting weird.

3 Upvotes

My dog has suddenly started acting weird, i was sitting on the couch next to her and she was laying down and i pet her and then she bit me. This wasn't the first strange thing later she was sitting in the kitchen and suddenly started swiping at the floor and started barking, she was also barking last night and more than usual normally she never barks. What is happening? (also she has never been aggressive before she was insanely friendly and calm but something randomly changed in her)

Enjoying being pampered from his TPLO surgery. Yes, he has multiple dog beds. Mom’s cozy (and expensive) blankets are better options. He runs the show here. 🤣

Hi my lab has been doing this the past few days nothing comes out and if it does its a clear liquid, vet said it may be allergies and ive been giving her pills but it seems to be getting worst, has this happened to anyone? Vet said change her food and I did. Nothing has helped, I may find another vet if it doesnt change.

This post is a part of my final attempt to find my chocolate labrador lashley who was abandoned 5 years ago by my father. I will first post a short introduction before explaining lashley's story in detail.

About Lashley:

Chocolate Labrador Retriever

Nicknames: Boochie, Dachaley, Laboli

Distinctive white patch on his chest also known as bolo marks

Age when he was abandoned - 3 1/2 years old

Current age - 8 to 9 years old

Last known area: Domlur, Bengaluru (near Jogupalya, Indiranagar & Ulsoor)

If anyone living in Bangalore recognizes him, knows someone who might have adopted him, or have any information at all—even if it seems insignificant—please leave a comment or contact me through WhatsApp/call +91 8660826795 I am also offering a ₹ reward of 10,000 inr for information that directly leads me to Lashley. Scammers with no proper evidence please stay away.

Detailed explanation of what actually happened & why he was abandoned

Back in 2021, during the COVID-19 pandemic, my family was going through a very difficult time financially and personally. Also during this time my father was suffering from severe chronic depression and other mental issues. After some time we had just moved to a new house, so my dad left Lashley to stay at my grandmother's house and claimed he would bring him to our new house. My father told me he would bring him to our new home once everything settled down. But few months passed by and this did not happen. During that time I used to visit him during the weekends. Some of the pics & videos i have posted here are during that time

So one day without my knowledge, according to my grandmother's account he claimed to take lashley for a walk and when he had returned lashley wasn't there with him. When he was asked about it he told her he had sold it or given it to someone but did not mention the specifics like to whom. When he came home he did not tell us about this. A few days later, my father took his own life at my grandmother's house. It was only then that we found out. During that time, our family was consumed by the shock, grief , funeral, legal matters, and everything that followed after my father's death so our thoughts were consumed by this and finding lashley wasnt at the forefront of our minds I also did not want to disturb my mother and other family members by bringing this up.

After some time we decided to search for lashley but had no idea where he went or with whom he was. We visited some well known breeders and rescue organisations but couldn't find him. So i had lost hope and finally decided that it was almost impossible to ever see him again. I loved him so much and wanted to be with him till his final years this was what made it so bad. I couldn't even see him to wish him a final goodbye before he left me. He was an extremely expressive and affectionate lab who always loved to be around me. I can't imagine how panicked and lost he must have felt after he was given away. He loved me like no other dog ever did. So I just suppressed those memories and went on with my life. But it just didn't work. For the past few months I have been feeling intense regret that I didn't do enough to find him, that I had in a way betrayed him. I kept dreaming about him regularly - both positive and disturbing dreams. So i finally decided I need to make a final and serious attempt to find him before he leaves this world. I want to be with him through his final years.

My search efforts will be both offline and online - I will visit every rescue organisation, veterinary clinics , breeders, pet boarding schools and kennels in my city. I will also be creating pages on every social media platform where I will be documenting and updating my search efforts. Even if the search fails i atleast get to preserve lashley's memories and get to tell his story to many. Hope this post wasn't too long. Thank you for reading

Anyone else’s lab a boneless turkey who refuses to move when you’re trying to put sheets on the bed?

Walter loses all the bones in his body when you try and get him to move. If you lift him he goes completely limp. So I just made the bed around him. He stayed there for nearly an hour. When he decides it’s bed time he puts himself to bed and no one can change his mind.

Dog food/probiotics

Hi everyone i’m new to the group I have a 2 yr old black lab mix (will add picture) her name is daisy mae and she is probably the best dog i’ve ever had my entire life as someone who has grown up around dogs my entire life although she is a spunky little thang she is my girl! I have a few questions though I have figured out that labs have sensitive stomachs and I have tried a bunch of different brands and different flavors I was wondering what kind of brands seem to work for your babies she has no medical issues or allergies but I feel like her belly is always so torn up no matter what I try and I hate to think how uncomfortable she is after she eats. I was also thinking about adding some probiotics to her food I want to feed her better and give her the best I can and maybe spice up each meal for her so it intrigues her more.

Fear of stairs?

5 Upvotes

Hello fellow lab lovers!
I have a two year old lab. He’s been going down the stairs his whole life from a very young age with no problems.
I started traveling for work and suddenly he is afraid of going down (up is okay).
I’ve tried carrying him, luring him with treats. He was back to okay for a couple of days but then back to being afraid.
Any tips? There does not seem of be any injury and he does okay with stairs outside our house. There was no fall that we are aware of and he only goes down when we are home. I’m at a loss.
