It was low on coolant and overheating recently, but after topping up the coolant, it initially looked like she had avoided any major damage.

Hopefully just a head gasket?

Sorry to hear, Matt. I hope it is fixable.

How is the pup doing?

Yeah

Zeke. I hope the little guy gets better. That video was tough to watch.

Yeah, that's my guess. I think it was running low for a pretty long time so I won't be surprised if it does need to be milled. Dropped it off at a local shop this morning. Not something I want to deal with on my own right now.

Not too bad?

He is sooo not as advertised though. We picked him for being a little older (~4 yrs), with promises that he is easy going, good with dogs, and doesn't mind being left alone.

Well, he's good with our dog, but has been lunging at unfamiliar dogs on walks. Not good.. The aggression really bothers me. On further questioning, it turns out he's had almost no socialization with other dogs. Not sure how he's getting along with our dog so well. Also, he seems to be very anxious when we leave the house.

I know I'm only two days in, but I'm starting to think getting a second dog was not such a good idea.
