so cuuuuuuute!

Aww poor sweet baby. I would definitely recommend a pair. I got these from Amazon and they were very inexpensive. Went with the cheaper pair first to see if she'd actually wear them and they've worked great so far!

not gonna lie, I've been letting her know that kind redditors think she's super cool.

Haha! She basically went full send on a bad Frisbee throw and did a few tuck and rolls in the grass. We're pretty sure it was a foxtail (nasty little weed that can be kind of sharp) that got into her eye and lodged itself under her 3rd eyelid when she kicked up some of the grass.

we were equally as shocked! It is indeed a real profession and I'm now sad every single day that it's not my profession**.**

yeah those things are seriously no joke. It looked like a barb when they got it out of her eye. Poor baby didn't even yelp or anything. We just noticed that her eye looked really irritated and took her to the vet. We're super glad she didn't have any permanent damage.

100% feel like she channels him whenever the frisbee is presented!

Now that is a super cool dog.

yep! it's especially noticeable in dogs that have the condition known as "cherry eye". That happens when the 3rd lid prolapses (which can be repaired surgically).

We took her to the beach once and she was terrified of the ocean lol. BUT, we hadn't brought the frisbee with us. I think if we take her again and have the frisbee then she will be too distracted to care about the big scary ocean.

yeah it was pretty gnarly. Crazy how it managed to slip right under her eyelid too. Our family vet couldn't even get it, we had to take her to a Dog Ophthalmologist so it could be extracted.

nah, she cute.

She has a big tongue, it always flops like that when she's playing Frisbee. She gives herself a break when she needs it. She will go lay in the shade and take a minute or two. Plus, it was very cold out when this photo was taken so no concerns over heat exhaustion, just getting in some good cardio.

She will try to catch the Frisbee at all costs (even when my throws are too close to the ground). During one of those bad throws her momentum made her do a bit of a tuck and roll and kicked up some grass. A particularly sharp angry piece got stuck in her third eyelid and required a trip to the vet to have it extracted. I think it was one of those foxtail weeds. They can be pretty sharp and are sort of pronged.

So eye safety gear from here on out as a precaution (because I will most certainly continue to make bad throws).

So long as the Frisbee is near by she doesn't care the least bit. I think she's even starting to recognize that when the doggles come out that means it's time to throw the Frisbee and she's puuuuumped.

100% her love language is Frisbee.

Totally agree! It's insane how many stupid Ryan Homes developments have gone up since we moved back to PA. So many people in such a small area was a huge reason why we moved.

Yeah it definitely feels rare to meet people who were born and raised there. I even worked in DE for over 10 years and most people I worked with were also transplants who moved there from some other state.

My wife is from Delaware. I lived there for 7 years before moving back to PA. It has a few perks like low property taxes, no sales tax, and beaches. But it has become to massively over populated in Northern DE, traffic is absolutely horrid practically all the time. The beaches have become even more touristy than I remember too.

nice - well I'm glad to hear that perhaps some of the red tape bureaucracy has eased a bit. Got mine back in 2020 so maybe covid played a role in my experience. Just felt like it took forever, was hard to identify who was actually a legit consultant, card took several weeks to get to me once approved.

Glad to hear that perhaps that isn't the norm for patients today.

did you just recently get approved? You're not kidding, that's pretty fast. nothing at all what I experienced.

Sure it's not hard but I wouldn't necessarily say it's super easy either.

the things I have to do to get med MJ in PA

1. get medical records from primary doctor showing eligible condition/diagnosis.
2. sign up on the PA medical marijuana website and pay $50 to get a patient number so I could schedule a 5 minute phone call with a certified MJ doctor
3. pay $175 to a certified MJ doctor to read the documents my primary doctor provided and say "yep, sounds like you need weed"
4. wait for MJ doc to validate the script on PA medical MJ website
5. wait 1 month for medical MJ card

Things I have to do to get MJ in CA

1. be 21
2. go to weed store

It's a bureaucratic nightmare. Recreational MJ would certainly remove pretty much all that bureaucracy.

it's not inaccurate because it's what I had to do. I imagine the appointments are cheaper now because the market is a little more saturated with doctors who have received that medical marijuana cert. Prior to it being wide spread there was a bit of a mark-up for those appointments. I paid $175 for my appointment in 2020, plus $50 for the card itself.

The whole process is a chafe. You have to sign up on the PA med MJ site to get your patient number, you need to get your documents from your primary care Dr. (or referring dr. who diagnosed you), provide that to the consult MJ dr. (which yes, you can do on a 2 min phone call which I guess is the most convenient part of this process) Those consult drs. don't diagnose you, they just confirm the diagnosis your referring dr. made is one that can be treated in PA with med MJ. Then you wait about a month to get your card after approved. Then repeat every year.

Recreational weed is far more convenient than all that nonsense.

It's not that easy in PA. It's kind of a bureaucratic cluster fuck to get medical MJ here to be honest.

Only doctors with medical mj certification can prescribed it. If your doc doesn't have that cert you have to see one who does and usually you wind up paying out of pocket for the consult because most of those docs don't take insurance. Typically can run between 175 to 200 bucks and then another 50 bucks for the medical card itself.

Recreational would just be so awesome for everyone (except maybe those consult groups making absolute bank off MJ appointments)
