Help give the little guy a name? #dognames
Brought home a new foster pup today and I need help naming him. I’m thinking of the following. Please help. Pip, Howie, Indie, Cosmo, Lenny, Finn, Luke… He and @gertiedog.bsky.social are already besties #dognames

My human tells me I need to ride around the airport in this mini Pope mobile. I’m not thrilled about it, but with my healing spine, this is a necessity. #ivdd #ivddsurvival #rescuedogs

Hi frenz. Happy hump day.

I’ve gotten used to hanging out in my pen. It’s not nearly as fun as bopping around the apartment, but while I heal, this is my domain. This enormous bed is awesome. Plenty of room for all my toys. #dogsofbluesky #doglife

Here’s the latest on my #ivdd #surgery recovery… Look at me standing on all four legs without assistance!
@gertiedog.bsky.social had her four week post op checkup today. It went well. I think? The neurologist tells me it’s time to start puppy physical therapy! I’ve been attempting some of the exercises at home with her, but she’s so wiggly, it’s impossible for me to do it alone. #ivdd #dogsofbluesky

The agility competition makes me a little sad, because before my #ivdd diagnosis and spinal surgery, I would have dominated in this category. It’s still fun to watch. These doggies are so talented and their humans are hilarious. #nationaldogshow

Watching the #nationaldogshow. Which dog is your favorite so far? I wish they had a category for mutts with #ivdd. Perhaps I should start my own dog show for special pups like me? Would you enter your dog?

Meet Puddy. He enjoys long strolls along the tree-lined streets of Los Angeles. He’s some sort of doodle and we adore him.

Hi Friends! Did you have a nice weekend? Being under the covers is my favorite place to be.
