:smith::respek::smith: I have a 12 year-old dog too.


It sucks knowing that something you've known for well over a decade of your life is almost to the end of theirs, but 12+ is a ripe old age for a dog. She sounds like she's been loved and well treated her whole life, and looks happy as can be in that picture. Here's to another couple years of health and happiness for all those loyal old family dogs. Woah, some dust got in my eye or something where did that come from no I'm not crying shut up here's a pug trying to be sneaky



That's the best part...I can't remember who it was, but one of the goons in the YOSPOS cat thread summed it up best when it came to having a pet and letting go - it was something along the lines of "you gave your pet the best life it could have and it was happy. Don't let your own sadness keep you from giving another pet a good life and making it and yourself happy." I thought it pretty much hit the nail on the head, especially when it comes to getting a pet from a shelter, where it may not have had such a good life before that. Sadness and grief are temporary but the reward of giving a pet a good home and making happy memories will last a lifetime. :unsmith:

TripleJ (Kind of an Aussie version of an NPR youth network) made a nice parody of Macklemores 'Same Love' by a young host there. I think it'll fit here nicely with themes of dogs and acceptance. It's silly, but the reaction by Macklemore always makes me grin. ~6mins.

D'awww :3: watching videos like this, I'd love to see follow-ups to them...I wonder if any of those rescued animals would recognize the people that cared for them, if the caregiver went into their habitat. I hear a bit about people rescuing squirrels or other animals (even that old video with the couple that raised a lion cub and it recognized them when they went into its territory) and those animals sort of "remembering" the people and place where they were nursed, it'd be neat to see if it happened with all animals.

This probably isn't the thread for this, but these videos of animals who don't normally experience being pet or tickled (like this porcupine, and people have posted videos of a lamprey being pet, penguins getting tickled, etc.)....these have to be strange and foreign physical sensations for them, yet they seem to enjoy them. Like I'm sure those lamprey eels have never been pet or snuggled with in all their aquatic lives, nor do they as species have any kind of genetic memory or instinct that would clue them into "being pet" = "affection" so... I don't know what I'm trying to say, but it blows my mind a little that they respond to being touched by a human being with happiness.

Maybe it's just as simple as :feelsgood:

I think that about sums it up, they just like the sensation...maybe they have a memory of something else that gave that feeling and the petting/scritching feels the same so they're all "gimme more, I like that poo poo". That, and sensing that the person handling them isn't a threat, so it sort of relaxes them and keeps them calm and less prone to aggression.
