We have a cat who does that, it's weird...

My dog likes to come stick her tongue directly up my nose in the morning. I'm not sure if that's better or worse than licking the pillow. Though her tongue is much smaller than Ghost's, so at least there's that.

That is definitely much worse. Especially since I had already gotten up.

Has she ever licked your ear canal?

ugh. my dog is obsessed with my skin cells or something and is always licking pillows, and blanket, and couch, and bed.

Pit mix? Handsome, either way.

We think pitbull and dalmatian. Her spots have mostly faded, although she was recently at the vet and she had her leg shaved for an IV and you could see all the spots underneath.

had her leg shaved

Another girl lost to the pressures of society ๐Ÿ˜ญ

She looks sweet. Hope she's fine, I read about her needing care. I didn't have it to spare or I would've sent at least $5.

[โ€“] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I appreciate the offer, but we have ways of paying for it. It just will hurt.

She was at the vet's for three days when they found her kidney and liver values were at dangerous levels, but they flushed her with IV fluids and she seems to be doing okay for now. We'll see what happens. She ate something she really shouldn't have a month ago or so and it poisoned her- made her act drunk for a few hours and then later, what came out of her was not what dogs are supposed to eat. So I think that's what was behind it. Now she's back to her old evil self.

I'm glad she's ok, I hope recovery is speedy, including financial.

You have a wife? How the fuck do you manage to post so much on Lemmy?
