Has anyone gotten/given a really great gift for the loss of a pet? My sister's dog very suddenly died, and my niece is only 2 but is having a hard time understanding why her 'baba' isn't home. I think she'd like to see a picture of him once the wounds heal a bit.
I'm thinking a double sided photo blanket (apparently these are hard to come by?) with a cute pic of the dog + baby, and a funny pic of her dog on the reverse side. Any other ideas?
I love himFor those I'm not Facebook/Snapchat friends with, my husband and I adopted this guy last Friday! He's 15 months old, the rescue guessed he's a lab/terrier mix but they didn't really know, I want to do a Wisdom Panel on him at some point! We named him Davy (as in Davy Jones, because my husband is obsessed with pirates), he's so sweet and pretty well-behaved. He loves giving kisses, and playing with his crinkly stuffed alligator. He's my first dog ever (seriously, not even a family dog when I was little) so it's been fun getting to know him!View attachment 239681View attachment 239682

Omggggggg they’re precious I need themI do acrylic + water color portrait commissions, and a lot of my clients are people getting art of their own/friends'/babysitters' pets that have passed away. My go to gift for my mom recently has just been art of our animals
In other news my first two bottle babies are going off to their new foster homes today . I've had a bunch of foster babies before but this set I've had since they were just week old poop-covered chicken nuggets.
Omggggggg they’re precious I need them
Also your art is REALLY COOL AND GOOD
Thank you!! I have a gap year between undergrad and vet school so I'm taking time to just CHURN 'EM OUT because I didn't have much time for art before, and I probably won't either in the future What's your guys' free time like?
I've found that I have progressively less free time as I get further into school, though some of that is by choice. First year I was able to find time to write, I can't imagine being able to do that now (third year) since there's just always something that I need to be working on.Thank you!!

A bit off topic but VET SCHOOLS LOVE ARTISTS, like there are scholarships for students who can draw anatomy things and stuff. If you haven't already applied, be sure to use your interest & talent in art to your advantage. Hella transferable skills. They love that.
Definitely never heard of such things while I was in school, would have been nice!A bit off topic but VET SCHOOLS LOVE ARTISTS, like there are scholarships for students who can draw anatomy things and stuff.

Yeah I definitely haven’t heard of them either. Can’t draw to save my life but still haven’t heard anyone ever mention them hahaDefinitely never heard of such things while I was in school, would have been nice!
Basically what WZ said. One thing we super stress from the beginning at our school is taking time for yourself. Like starting D1 at orientation camp. Obviously like study but if you're feeling burn out when it physically hurts to put more info in your brain put it away for a day maybe 2. My group of friends does weekly dinner and then one night a week I do date night with my fiance who lives with me we go out and have a good time. If I need to study for an exam though that's what I'm committed to. Free time will definitely get less as years progress for us but its finding that balance to stay rounded. Workout, eat decently, go to things that interest you.Thank you!!

I have been very slowly painting a skyline for my brother for Christmas during this semester! I’m a second year, and it’s nice to have a couple hours a week of dedicated not vet related time!But you can find time for stuff like that for sure, if it's important to you (not to say that writing isn't important to me but it uses a little too much brain power to be one of my go to leisure activities right now). Always gotta make time for yourself
I love him so muchWe got some good bonding time together in his new run, so he’s starting to actually enjoy my presence.

UGH THOSE FACES.
I like Delta the best! I'd probably never own a mal (I just don't think I'd ever have the time for what they need), but that pup sure is cute!For those needing names to faces, each puppy has 2 pics. In order, it's Blue, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Gray, Owen, then Zach
He smiles in like every picture. Smug lil dudeI like Delta the best! I'd probably never own a mal (I just don't think I'd ever have the time for what they need), but that pup sure is cute!

Take them alllllllI'm contemplating taking on a young FI DSH who I took in as a stray for a "swelling" between her legs. Turns out that swelling is an inguinal hernia into which her uterus containing kittens has prolapsed into. She has pelvic fractures too but is getting around fine, but likely will not be able to deliver the kittens.
Orrrrr, I'm contemplating taking on this bonded male gpig pair as they likely will need a new home. They're kind of indefinitely med boarding right now.
Take them alllllll
I just don't want to make a spontaneous decision I'll regret. I've also never had a cat so I'm kind of scared. That being said, I did just get a little sad when I was told a rescue may take her tomorrow. Also my bf said I should adopt her. Haha.
cats are like roommates
I'm firmly in the you should adopt the kitty camp, because she sounds like a hot mess and that is right up my allyI just don't want to make a spontaneous decision I'll regret.
