Random Pet Photo of the Day - 2026

Those shades!

Oskar has Pannus, so he needs to wear them to protect his eyes from UV. He also has discoid lupus, so on a hot day, we go to the lake for play.
I really look forward to winter, and snow, so we can go for walks in the middle of the day.

Despite cutting his kibble ration down to 3 cups per day and running/hiking on the island for 5 hours per day, weigh in today at 5 months 69lbs omg

PoV : You take your dogs out to a big open beach so they can RUN, and they just stand around you like they have nothing to do.

I don't think he looks over weight? He's just going to be a big boy

True, his ribs are palpable. I think the vet has never seen a European Dobermann, he's mostly Euro with a little American and doesn't have that American tuck up...but does one really need a 30" tall 120-130lb Dobe?

I also think his body condition looks really ideal, not that I am a vet or anything. Still, it is a stunning weight for 5 months, which, I don't mean that as good or bad, it just is what it is. My youngest girl was so behind in weight compared to her peers, but has leveled out now at 69 pounds at 2.5 years, and I never thought she would top 60 into the breed standard, watching her grow up. But I also think you just got a big boy! I love seeing him and all the updates! I can't wait to see how he will develop, 69 at 5 months vs 69 at 2.5 years is kinda mind blowing for me!

Yes, I lay on concrete...


But I like soft stuff too! I'm a Farm Dog!

@remy's Remy has a shape like that - thick and heavy-looking but not overweight at all, plus totally athletic, and all American in his immediate pedigree. And I think @Ddski5's dog was also American but massive looking. Mine (female), is about 3/4 Euro has been right around 69 lbs all her adult life. Funny how it all works!
