Chronicles of Gare Bear: Bat Boi (and his Mahm)

Had to be carried on walkies because he WOULDN'T STOP SNIFFING THINGS AND TRYING TO EAT THEM WHEN MAHM SAID LEAVE IT.

This particular stretch of walk ... He KNOWS are things that are not allowed (or dog friendly).

Food wrappers, cigarette butts, random weird plants.

Not puppy safe, yet he just can't leave them alone. 🤦🏼‍♀️

So he has to go into air jail and be carried like a tiny fuzzy football.

Hence this adorable photo of our shadows.

Is he still a superhero? Of people's hearts, sure.

The amount of people yell out their car windows "I LOVE HIS EARS!!" -- frequent. Several times a week.

But Bat Boi still has to be carried for his own good through this block of the walk. 🙄

Chronicles of Gare Bear: FINALLY captured the classic move

It's like he knows when the camera is on him and he'll act uninterested and very cool. 🤣

BUT I FINALLY GOT IT.

Dentist recommendations

Hi y'all! I'm new to Nashville and I'm looking for a dentist.

I lived in Nashville for a bit about 5 years ago. I didn't *love* my dentist and I felt like the cleaning I got wasn't very thorough.

I'm due for a cleaning in September (ish).

My last dentist in Texas was honestly a dream and I would often drive 60-70 miles 2-3x a year to see them, so distance is no issue. I can go anywhere in the Nashville area.

And I don't need any major dental work coming up, so that's not a major factor, either. (I know, I'm very grateful.)

What I'm looking for:

- Thorough cleanings and explaining things in plain language

- Cash price for services that's affordable (since I know "affordable" is a relative term, my dentist in TX offered an "in house dental plan" where for $350/year you got 2 cleanings, 1 set of x rays, and 1 small procedure included, and after that all other procedures were at the insurance rate). I can go above that if someone is extraordinary but I don't wanna be spending over $500 on basic preventative dental care if I don't have to.

- Focus on prevention, the little technological advances that save you big money (and your teeth in general) down the road

- Not part of a private equity chain

- Treat their hygienists well, cuz that's who's going to have their hands in my mouth for most of the visit and I want that person to be happy with their job situation

If you're willing to share, who comes to mind? Who do you love seeing? And who do you feel ... Kind of loves taking care of your teeth?

Chronicles of Gare Bear: it's yummy-o'clock

Since it's bound to come up ... Gary eats:

- A shot glass and a half of Heritage Ranch Salmon & Rice kibble (HEB brand), when we run out I have Nutrish Salmon by Rachael Ray on it's way

- 1.5 tbsp rolled unflavored oats

- 1/4 tsp chia seeds

- 1/4 pump salmon oil

- 10 drops doggie collagen

- 10 drops coconut oil

- 1 shot glass Brutus doggie bone broth with glucosamine & condroitin, chicken flavor because he doesn't like beef

- 1 shot glass of water

- 1 spoonful pumpkin

- 1 spoonful Greek yogurt

- Stella & Chewy's duck meal topper as desired

Gare Bear is a very regular boy with his digestion thanks to this meal combo.

Chronicles of Gare Bear: Happy walkies

I promise he's not hot, he's smiling. But he is doing his best ghost impression with the glow collar.

Proof of more smiles in the comments once this post is approved.

Chronicles of Gare Bear: Mahm is home!

That happy face never gets old. 🥹

And the ears. The soft ears.

As always, whenever I share him, someone suggests r/sonarears. And you would correct, except these ears are not for listening, they're for dial-up internet, and it gets really loud in there. So unless I'm opening my favorite Trader Joe's white cheddar popcorn ... He absolutely did not hear me say anything, least of all "Leave it!"

10 lbs of absolutely loving me (and would stomp on my face to get to a spoon of doggie peanut butter) ... Wouldn't have it any other way. 🥰

Chronicles of Gare Bear: Mahm, I see you have made my dinner. It's 4 pm. Dinner is at 5. You gib immediate?

Cuz I am CoNcErNeD I am not eating this second, MaHm.

As always, when I post in this sub, someone mentions how he belongs in r/sonarears. And you would be correct except these ears are not for listening, they're for dial-up internet, the place where electronics scream at each other, and it gets really loud in there. So unless I have a bag of popcorn ... He absolutely did not hear me say "Leave it!" 🤷🏼‍♀️

Snuggly, because Mahm has Sunday off, and Sunday is for snuggles.
