Turns out that this tender lil bb has a collapsing trachea ☹ Do you/have you had a dog with this condition? What did you do to manage it?🙏 (I've read everything online, looking specifically for firsthand accounts here, thanks.) Pinto Bean the lil bb angel of love/my constant companion, adventure pal and hot water bottle is at the vet today for some respiratory issues. Plz send him all yr magic woo 🙏💖🙏 Update: he probs has trachea issues. 📷:@liasmaka I'm in southern oregon where the weather is beautiful this time of year and the forests are full of light and magic and yet, people crossing the US/Mexico border are still being forced into desert wilderness where they die; southern Arizona is in a heat wave; No More Deaths' main humanitarian aid camp, which provides crucial medical care to hundreds of people each year, was just raided; vulnerable people in urgent need of medical care may no longer see the camp as a safe place to go, more people will likely die. (Look up the articles about the raid in the New York Times and the Guardian for more info.) Here in Ashland, the land of wealthy white liberals, the border feels as though it might be on another planet, and no-one fucking cares. How can the world can be so beautiful and yet so terrible, depending on who you are, how much money you have, and where you live. Why do the bad guys keep winning. I know there's something to believe in, but I am having trouble finding it. What do YOU believe in right now? For the last 48 hours, border patrol has been surveilling/being an intimidating presence around No More Deaths' humanitarian aid camp near the US/Mexico border, which means that volunteers are unable to provide the life-saving humanitarian aid and medical care that that is so so desperately needed in this area every day. Seeing as the Sonoran desert is currently having a heat wave of 110°+, this means that more people crossing are likely going to die. In addition to providing water and medical care, in the last six weeks NMD volunteers have helped to recover more than ten sets of human remains in these borderlands. Border patrol interfering with humanitarian aid right now at the most dangerous time of the year is NOT FUCKING COOL. Please call these numbers and share widely with your networks! (And follow No More Deaths on facebook for more updates.) I've got some rly rly rly good news but I can't share it for another week because I need to make sure it's real!!! In the meantime here is Pinto Bean in the sea in Mexico with his 🌭 hangin out. It was too hot in the Sonoran desert and now Pinto and I are in Southern Oregon where it's rainy and cold af, inexplicably. I'm so happy tho! I will tell u why soon. Little doge in the big sierras
