👻 The scariest thing for dachshunds this Halloween isn't ghosts — it's the everyday things we don't even realize we're doing.

1️⃣ Letting them get chunky
2️⃣ Letting them launch off the couch
3️⃣ Ignoring the early signs of back pain
4️⃣ Picking them up wrong
5️⃣ Collar instead of harness
6️⃣ Skipping crate rest

Which one are you guilty of? Be honest 👇

Save this for your next vet visit checklist 🐾

General education only — for your pup specifically, check with your own vet.

I do it all for the weenies 🌭💜

Why I would be fired if I worked in human medicine 😅

Vet medicine runs on affectionate clinical bluntness — and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Which one made you laugh hardest? Tag your dog mom bestie 👇

Did any of these surprise you?!? 😂

Is your senior dog just “slowing down” — or is something else going on? 🐾

Canine cognitive dysfunction (doggy dementia) affects memory, sleep, and awareness — and it’s hugely underdiagnosed. The signs spell DISHA: disorientation, changed interactions, sleep-wake flips, house soiling, activity changes, and anxiety.

But first rule out the mimics: pain, vision or hearing loss, and organ disease can look exactly the same. New behavior always earns a vet visit.

Has your senior started pacing at night or staring at walls? You’re not alone — tell me below 👇

Educational only — for your dog’s individual needs, talk to your own vet.

Hills I will die on as a vet — Halloween costume edition 🎃

Your dog doesn’t care about winning the costume contest. They care about seeing, breathing, and moving comfortably. If they freeze, paw at it, or shut down — the costume comes off, no matter how cute the photo would’ve been.

Save this for costume night 💜

Should you s***k your dog? Short answer: no — and here’s why 🐾

Dogs don’t connect a punishment minutes later to what they did. They connect it to you. What you get isn’t a dog who learned — it’s a dog who’s afraid of your hands.

Interrupt calmly, redirect to the right behavior, and reward what you want more of. That’s how they actually learn 💜

Were you taught to s***k growing up? No judgment here — what changed your mind? 👇

Educational only — for your dog’s individual behavior needs, talk to your own vet or a certified trainer.
