>"pomsky" little mix shit
>or Giant ass Malamute

Both have extremely different needs from nutrition to exercise. Owning any dog of breed while serving is inappropriate. I say this as I come from a military family, the only situation where this is acceptable is when you have a wife and children (6yr+) who can be responsible for the animal. I live near a military base and a good 70% of the dogs listed on craigslist are from military people who cannot adequately care for their dog. Those who do not opt to sell their dogs often times spend a ton of money locking them in a kennel with strangers for months on end. Save the dog for when you retire.

Pomskies are designer mutts. I would be wary of ANYONE selling a pomsky. The majority of pictures online I have seen are confirmed for not being pom/husky mixes. They do not have a set standard, they vary a lot in both appearance and temperament, and breeders have proven they don't give a flying fuck about the dogs they breed so it is unlikely they will ever be a set standard for this dog. The pom/husky mixes I have personally seen (you really can't assume they will look like pics from the internet because of how hard they are shilled) all look like generic medium to large shepherd mixes.

Beat it over the head with a rock. Repeat until dead.

I personally love this breed I have 4 of them myself.
They are great dogs but i recommend start traning early cause they are very active energetic dogs but have great personalities.
Also be careful of white boxers because they usually have all the bad genes and can be aggressive, but other than that they are a great breed in General

>>2382167
White boxers are also more likely to be deaf.

>>2382162
Active, goofy, perpetual puppies.
It's a shame that they are basically cancer factories.

Pet it

Pledge to protect

point gene in domestic short hairs is cute
bring it to some shelter and some niggers will ruin its life trying to breed it 24/7 because they will think it's a legit siamese

American fantails are qt as fuck pleb. They constantly have to peak their heads up above their fat chest in order to see in front of them. It's adorable.

12/10 lazy boye

Your dog is a fine specimen of the canis familiarus species. No doubt she/he protects avidly protects your family from theives and ne'er-do-wells; the first to spring into action at the threat of danger no doubt. Also he/she looks to function as a fine doorstop and tripping hazard when not engaged in acts of bravery and good-doggery.

>>2381693
He's dead

Other than that solid 7/10

>nodosaur
>having feathers
are you that guy from the other thread with the same subject who tried to get people to start a feather argument pertaining to dinosaurs so now you started your own thread out of spite

>>2381590
>no eyeballs either
>therefore it was blind, QED

>>2381590
>non-theropods didn't have feathers
Yeah no shit

why does their cat food not have taurine added? is every ounce of meat going into it raw? it doesn't say it is.

>>2381490
Wouldn't the canned version be the canned equivalent of Orijen?

Also how bad is it to feed a cat dry food in the morning and wet food at night? I have 2 cats that I was feeding canned food only, but they were eating 2 cans a day and may need more. So I started cutting it with dry food, but the whole reason I got them on canned in the first place is because I didn't want them eating dry food for health things.

Orijen wet.
Loved Orijen but my dogs digestive systems didn't.
Tried for nearly a year but it was farts and liquid shit galore.
Given my one dog has ibs I thought he'd really benefit but he didn't. They get Good Natured (cheap holistic) w/ raw supplement. Usually some liver and ground beef or chicken. My parents still sadly live by Blue Buffalo and that's all they feed their dog and can't find out why it's pink as hell and always bloated.

>>2381297
Yes

>>2381297
>Should I report them to the rspca?

Yes

>>2381302
>>2381304
Yeah cheers guys i decided i will. I've been hesitating because they'll know it was me but i know the dogs wellbeing is more important than peoples opinions of me

>>2381099
is there a nest above or nearby?

>>2381105
Not that I can see, at least not on the tree he's next to. There's another tree on the other side of the street that seems to have at least 3 bird couples, but I don't think he could've fallen from there and ended up where he is now.

Sun is almost down, pretty sure cats are already on the prowl. Should I just put him on the tree he's close to and hope the cats don't get him?

Jesus my fingers look so long. I promise it was distortion from the camera.

looks like a turkey egg

>>2381091
Thats a triceromaraptor egg.

>>2380284
Keep us updated, OP. I'm sure this is going to end well for all parties involved.

>>2971636

Back to transportation faggot

Read the bible.

they're dumber than a bag of hammers

>>2379669
I've heard the they're stupid so you need to make sure there's no way for them to injure themselves in their field, but they're also less likely to try and escape than a goat is.

>literally getting cucked by your pet

>>2379337
Wait until they're 8 weeks old, then strangle them individually and leave their bodies with your slut cat. That'll teach her to be a slut

>>2379337
that's because the 'exotic' breed cats tend to be exotic due to recessive genes. Long coats, specific colors and patterns, odd traits, usually all recessive
