Grooming recs?

Grooming recs?

Hey yall! I've had my Nebelung for about 9 years now and in his older age, he's starting to get some tiny knots in his hair. A lot of this is also due to his fur getting very wet regularly from his tub time. What brushes/combs do you all use? I had a wire/slicker brush but I feel this is too rough on his skin, so id like to get something else!

What was this structure?

I visited Monterey during the summer and just off Cannery Row, there was what appeared to be the remains of what used to be a structure? It's to the left of El Torito and I've just been curious about any history behind it if there is any at all. Wish I had better photos but I'm sure it's a popular spot. Coordinates were 36.61538° N, 121.89848° W

Still learning

I've been having trouble with liking virtually any of the jpegs from my Fuji since i got it. I've been steady preferring my raws because I haven't figured out any recipe combination that matches the look i like that also looks just as good on my computer once I get the image back. Feel like im always shocked at how different it looks? Going to keep playing around but I've been having fun nonetheless with such a fast camera

Happy I didn't cancel because of the rain

There was no lightning so we continued up. Worth it. Reservation was hard as hell to get but I caught a cancellation at 11:00pm the night before. I can understand why this trail is so popular. I found it very easy, short, and extremely rewarding. If I had a visitor who wanted to go on a hike to represent Colorado, this would definitely be top 3 of doing it justice and being overall friendly.

Do you have pet insurance as an employee?

I've been in vet med for about 9 years now and have seen the rising costs of care even with employee discounts. Do any vet employees here have pet insurance? Is it worth it even with your employee discounts? Do any pet insurance companies offer industry discounts? I'm getting a new puppy for the first time in a long time and just wondering if I should be considering it this time. My discounts are as follows...
- Free exams, bloodwork, X-rays
- 50% off ultrasounds and cardiology
- Medications/products at clinic cost
- Hill's, Royal Canin, and Purina Pro Plan vet portal discounts
- No payments up front, installments for however long unless employment ends. No interest. Minimum monthly due is $10 for whatever.
- We're only GP but do offer TPLOs and other orthopedics via traveling specialists. No other specialists on board.

Just picking everybody's brain about if it'd be worth it. Thinking about just getting Care credit instead.

We're introducing a puppy to the home and my Neb is very confused

I do suppose it is my fault that I did not think to get him a dog puzzle toy and a crate, or another bed after he didn't touch any of his for 8 years

What would you do differently if you could raise them all over again?

Hey, all. I'm getting a puppy in the very near future - my grown dog passed away very unexpectedly in December and im feeling a bit more ready to make the step. What I was wondering is what are some things I'd have done differently if I could start all over? Mine are practicing better recall and reinforcing positive and polite introductions, but I'd love to hear from others. I'm considering using a play pen and open crate this time around instead of just a crate.

Is this your dog?

If you were in Big Sur last week, specifically parked in the River Inn parking lot, I got a bunch of really cute high quality photos of your dog if you want them and ever see this!

Bad at editing. Want to be better. Before/after

Hoping to get better at photo editing! I have a bad tendency to make photos to warm and after looking at the photos for so long I feel like I go crazy lol. Would love opinions.
