Truly lost my big guy last week- 6 months old older half brother not doing well— dogs only make it to 12-14 years now days ( mine were not neutered males over 90 pounds) testosterone and estrogen helps prolong life — the lawn care chemicals/ bad kibble and neutering has really shortened canine lives
My dads dog ( poodle/ spitz cross) lived to 19 on table scraps... purina hit the market in the 40’s-50’s and everyone feeds kibble now
Everyone vaccinates the crap out of their dogs from 6 weeks till death when 75 years ago all that was vaccinated for was rabies— it’s amazing how puppies back then survived “parvo and distemper “- I’ve had 2 post distemper pups and 3 post parvovirus- natural immunity compared to a vaccine is very complete— I myself had red measles/ mumps / German measles ( Rubella)/ chicken pox/ fifth disease-/ contracted Pertussis ( cause only had the vaccine..) at 55 coughed my guts out but survived and am now forever immune— it’s so much better to survive to illness than the vaccine possible effects and reduced immunity
Pharma has messed up so many creatures. My parents have one of my dogs I had and she's 15. I'm surprised she's made it this long. I miss her and my two pups who've gone on.
