I've found that mixing up pets' diets every once in a while (gradually, of course) can solve a variety of problems- whether that entails the introduction of a new variety of chow, experimentation in regard to the ratio of moist to dry food, or a variety of other variables.

Anyway, hopefully Data's stool remains blood-free!

That's great, POMC! What was wrong with him?

Oh, looks like I still have to tweak Data's diet a bit. Going to try giving him a bit more wet food first, if that has no effect I'll switch to a new brand of food altogether.

I don't actually now. I think he had fever. When we got him home he was sick again but now he's wagging his tail every so often so he's better!

My dog just had diarrhoea. There's a large line of liquid [&@%!] on my little sister's bed.

And that, ladies and gentleman, is why the Internet should not be used while eating. Well, that and because of /b/.

On topic, my dog is lazy and I really need to take some photographs of him being lazy and stuff.

Beautiful pics, Vendetta!

And good luck for the next few days, POMC. Not always easy looking after a recovering pet.

I've got a dog called Boo. She's a typical little terrier git lol. She's getting older now though, sometimes we overwalk her and she limps slightly so we have had to cut down on her exercise and she's now taking tablets for her joints. Here's a picture:

@Vendetta

is Bear a leonberger?
A hero can be anyone, even a man doing some as simple and reassuring as putting a coat around a young boy's shoulders to let him know the world hadn't ended.

I agree; all animals pictured are beautiful. I have to say that Sampson is particularly gorgeous- might I ask his breed? I have a feeling, perhaps incorrect, that he's some sort of mix or a mutt.

Boo is adorable as well! Her coloration is wonderful.

Sampson is a German Shepherd. My favorite kind of dog. We don't have him anymore because German Shepherds require a lot of work and no one had the time. But don't worry. He went to an Indian man who has more money than the combined currency of the world, so Sampson is getting spoiled rotten.

We are not exactly sure, but we know it either has German Shepherd in it or Australian Shepherd. Where it gets its puffyness is a mystery.

Such an aquatic disaster can be avoided, of course; I'd suggest avoiding tap water, if you can, and ensuring the proper filters and such are in place.

That video is adorable, Abel! Lily's a wonderful name for a cat.

Yeah, them ferrets bite like vices. Took me three minutes to get her off without losing a piece of hand. I think I counted 25 punctures.

But they're sooo cute!
