watch your fingers

I originally created this blog to share photos of my Yorkie, Millie. Millie passed away on 11/21/19 at the age of 10. She was spunky, spirited, and—of course—adorable. Mishka the GSD is the new kid on the block. My name is Grace, but I will respond to just about anything starting with a G.

Pro-outcross genetic diversity people: Wow, it's a shame about small bottlenecking gene pools. =/ Wish people would not demonize outcrossing/mixing dogs responsibly. I'm gonna make a thoughtful breed project.

Purebred Snobs™: hOw DaRe ThEy MiX bReEds!!! *proceeds to be passive aggressive or outright rude to responsible breeders outcrossing for various reasons*

@ anyone: if you know a show labrador breeder who does full health testing, produces service dog prospects and is open to selling to a disabled person, please let me know 💕

that or a breeder that produces unfurnished goldendoodles!!

(budget 2k or less, payment plans would be great)

I can’t help with lab breeders, but if you’re on fb, I highly recommend you join the group “hating doodles isn’t a personality trait.” There’s a handful of awesome doodle breeders in there and plenty of people who could help you find one. Best of luck!

Petition in 2022 for everyone to officially SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT DOODLES

Doodles are good dogs that people like and want

As long as there are people who like doodles, doodles will continue to exist

DIE FUCKING MAD ABOUT IT

Some sneak peaks sent to me by my lovely photographer friend from Shark's 1.5 year old photoshoot, I am so excited for these!

JUST health testing, doing due diligence regarding related dogs, carefully pairing dogs based on their strengths & weaknesses, evaluating for temperament and functional structure, helping match puppies to buyers based on observations of energy levels etc, raising puppies thoughtfully & with science based enrichment and socialization protocols, standing behind the dogs you produce for life & being willing to take them back at any time, being totally transparent with potential buyers about if your dogs are a good fit for them or not, and offering 24/7 breeder support DOESN'T MAKE YOU A RESPONSIBLE BREEDER!!! The other things that make you a responsible breeder are nebulous, arbitrary, ALWAYS changing based on my mood, and have nothing whatsoever to do with the actual wellbeing of the dogs produced or the humans who live with them. You idiot, you fool, you evil backyard breeder!!!!

whenever I finally realize that one of my mutuals is a sideblog and that the random user that’s been liking my posts was my mutual all along I feel like bruce willis at the end of the sixth sense

[meangirlnurse]

this is so important. please read it if you have any interest in adopting a dog.

Pleased to see this was put so well in something published.

More weasel words to be alert for: "shy" and "nervous around new people" mean fearful, probably undersocialized, possibly fear aggressive. "Best with someone who works from home" and "loves to be with people and upset when left out" means separation anxiety that couldn't be dealt with and may be beyond fixing.

Get a dog that's good for you.
