feedum_sneedson,

That’s not right, it’s the theobromine content that matters as it causes a hypertensive crisis since they lack the enzyme to metabolise that type of chemical (methylxanthines).

otter,

Thank you for correcting my confident ignorance. 🙌🏽

feedum_sneedson,

I’m glad your dog’s okay!

otter,

Technically, he’s not a dog anymore, but he will always be my gentle samurai. Chocolate couldn’t take him out; he found a worthy adversary in a degenerative nerve disorder and fought to the last like only he could. 🤘🏽💙

feedum_sneedson,

Well, I’m glad he existed. Very difficult losing a pet for any reason.

TheDoozer,

My previously fat old dachshund ended up at the vet hospital and got diagnosed with pancreatitis. So now all he gets is special low fat diet food and special low-fat, flavorless chewy sticks. I feel this meme so much.

He’s lazy, doesn’t like any particular toy or game for more than 10 minutes, and doesn’t really get excited about anything but seeing me, yelling at everyone and everything, and food. Mostly food. Now he’s skinny and absolutely hates it.

Poor little guy, but you’re a great owner for doing all of that for him.

akincisor,

Is it better to eat fast and die happy or hate your long existence?

TheDoozer,

I’ve made it clear that either way, he’s dying if pancreatitis. The second he gets another terminal illness, he’s going to eat himself to death like he wants. A Euthanasia Fiesta if you will.

DragonTypeWyvern,

Well pancreatitis apparently hurts like hell so you might as well get him a heroin buffet too.
