Oh my goodness! Feel better soon Rocky. :)

She looks like a very happy pup! :)

OMG! That really does look bad. I can't give you any advice, but I'd definitely get him to a vet SOON. When does he go to the vet? Hopefully very soon. That really doesn't look good. Please let us know what the vet does. Get well soon pup.

I completely understand how you feel. The vet that did Ozzy's ears was fairly new to cropping and left too much bell also. On top of that they never would stand unposted. He had them cropped a second time by the same vet free of charge and the now stand very well but there is still too much bell...

None taken at all. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, that's what makes this place a great resource. ;)

Looks like very happy dogs! :)

I don't know if any GSDs were nabbed but they stole labs, and terriers, and spaniels. Lots of small breeds especially. A waitress I know watched a guy jump her fence and take her dog. Unbelievably, she was able to id him when he came in the restraunt that same week. She did get the dog back. The...
