Comment on Help making a table more movable
nocturne@slrpnk.net 3 days agoThat is Furiosa, I adopted her 8 years ago. She is allergic to corn and wheat, so I cook food for her every day. We hike 4+ miles every morning. And luckily I own my own business (for now) so she comes to my game shop with me every day.
I do not know who has more separation anxiety, her or me.

Furiosa is amazing and lucky to have you! I had to cook food for my dog for a while, too, because he was neglected and abused before I got him. He was underweight and suffering from severe malnutrition, which caused him to violently reject any commercial food. About a year later, he’s at a good weight, and is able to comfortably consume the higher quality commercial foods (the grain free ones), but still has trouble with the more economical foods (and likely always will). His name is Phoenix. He is a red Alaskan Husky, and, like the mythical phoenix bird, he has emerged from the ashes of his past abuser as renewed and full of life.

When I adopted Furiosa, she was one of six in the litter, they all had been abandoned at the local shelter. I spent time with each of them and let the dog pick me. Even when other people were playing with Furiosa she kept coming to me. I worry all the time of I had picked a different puppy that day, would Furiosa’s hypothetical owner take care of her like I do.
It sounds like your dog is lucky to have you too.

Oh my goodness! That is the best story! My heart is full of joy! <3 Whoever thinks dogs are just animals, has never spent true quality time with one. They’re so special and loving and emotionally complex.
