Samurai the Papillon

@Michellek4040 @emilykmay The fence at the dog park is just as much to protect people and animals outside the park as to keep dogs in.

@emilykmay It occurs to me that they usually double gate dog parks and yet with children they’re like 🤷‍♀️

our city recently built an insanely expensive park with the purpose of being inclusive to disabled kids. it has swings and a zip line that can accommodate kids who use wheelchairs. it has tons of neat sensory features. it's not fenced, and it's next to a pond.

When you adopt a rescue dog, it’s vital to your success to learn what you need to know about the dog. whole-dog-journal.com/lifestyle/ques…

A 7 week old puppy got brought into the clinic to be euthanised tonight. Very sad. Any way, meet my new son.

@MadameGilflurt @hannibella922 Seems a bit obvious cad here. But when you’re young and swept off your feet, you miss what’s clear to everyone else.

@hannibella922 Only 17; it was an awful marriage too, he abused her throughout.

This is 17-year-old heiress Gloria Vanderbilt and her first husband, Pat DiCicco, cutting their wedding cake. The cake at their #frockingfabulous wedding featured a mini Gloria wearing a replica of her Howard Greer bridal gown!

@DrEricDing @RepLoudermilk So by his logic, we should be on Category umpty-fiddy-thousand three by now.

I’ve lost all pity for climate denial GOP members of Congress. @RepLoudermilk represents Georgia—which is literally in the pathway of #HurricaneIdalia! Boundless stupidity. Georgia needs better representation.

@AudacityofGoats Hi there, just writing this out of concern, but has he had his hips X-rayed? It appears he is favoring his left rear. The right rear is swinging in toward the midline to compensate, ie, to carry more of the weight. That sway suggests a need for followup. ❤️ from a dog trainer

Fat bottom dogs…

Carl Sagan’s incredibly eloquent 4 min speech to Congress in 1985 about precisely how CO2 and other greenhouse gases caused by humans lead to #climatechange. Worth your time to watch and listen. #ClimateActionNow

@D1ssoluti0ng0v @DrEricDing Still, where did the money come from? It had to come from someplace. What bill or program were they payments authorized under? What was the process by which the amount of payments were decided & by what channels distributed? Something this massive had to leave a trail.

@D1ssoluti0ng0v @DrEricDing I asked multiple doctors in my community about this and they said it wasn’t true. They said, if it was, where is the funding for this supposedly coming from. If there was money being paid, it had to come from somewhere. What program specifically was passed to fund it?

VACCINES lowers cancer deaths during the pandemic—by a lot. And the prevented deaths accrued after #COVID19 vaccines were authorized. Further, vaccines did not increase cardiac deaths, it likely prevented cardiac deaths. Details in thread 🧵 below. Suffice to say, anti-vaxxers are wrong wrong wrong and got a lot of people needlessly killed. HT to @tylerblack32

Prior authorization buries physicians in paperwork and delays care to patients, sometimes with disastrous results. One patient shares their experience and why we need to fight to #FixPriorAuth. spr.ly/6017Pz1sh

When frail patients go into cardiac arrest and need #CPR during surgery, they’re more likely to die than those who are stronger, a new study shows. Learn more @HealthDayTweets @JAMA_current. spr.ly/6018PJ89g

Good night, lovely people and lovely dogs. I'm wishing you the very best for a fabulous weekend. Sleep well and sweet dreams. #hoorayfordogs #labrador #westie #beagle #springer #redsquirrel #recharging

@ask_aubry Females do tend to be in higher demand by dog buyers. Part is, as one breeder told me, they have a uterus. That means something if you a establishing a foundation line. Pet owners perceive girl dogs as sweeter, though I’m not so convinced there’s a real difference there.

When misogyny is so ingrained it spills over to dogs.

@ask_aubry In my breed, Papillons, boys tend to be more eager to please. Females can tend to be more couch princesses. This is if you want to train for performance, such as agility. I’m not sure it would be noticeable to a pet home, and there are girls who are some of the best in the sport.

In 1984. Recent law school grad Greg Abbott was jogging in the affluent Houston, Texas suburb of River Oaks. When he jogged past Divorce attorney Roy Moore's home. A giant oak tree broke and tragically fell on Greg Abbott. Crushing his spine and leaving him paralyzed. Uninsured and unemployed. Abbott had no health insurance. He had over $81,000 in hospital bills. He sued. Abbott got his hospital bills paid and received over $5.7 million dollars in payouts from Moore's home insurance and the tree services company who failed to detect the tree was rotten inside. Still to this day Greg Abbott gets a monthly check that includes cost of living increases each year. And will receive a check for the rest of his life. When Abbott was on the Texas Supreme court . He voted to decrease the amount of money someone in a similar situation could receive. Gregg Abbott supported capping non medical damages in cases like his at $250,000. A reward like the multi million dollars in payouts Abbott received and still receives each and every month till the day he dies would be impossible today. Of course these bills were crafted to not be retroactive. So they do not affect Greg Abbotts payments. Gregg Abbott does everything he can to hurt us Texans. While he laughs all the way to the bank every month with his very generous monthly check that he happily denies to another Texan who is injured in the same way as Abbott was. It goes without saying. This is another example of a GOP hypocrite. OK for me but not for any other Texan. That should be Gov. Greg Abbotts theme song for his life. What a despicable man who cares nothing about anyone's pain and suffering. He got his and to Abbot and the GOP. That's all that matters. @NewBlueUSA #DemVoice1
