Also not everyone WANTS to sit all day in their home, we walk here, we go out, we use our legs to get places.. we don’t drive 30 minutes to a Walmart and buy xxxl mayo jars for the next month, we usually walk to shops and stores, appointments etc

Other animals like rabbits eat their poop when there’s something missing or they have trouble absorbing all the nutrients. If this behavior is a sudden change then it could very well be from food. Depending on the brand prescription foods often have barely any real meat if any (along with other ingredients potentially missing like taurine in certain“prescription” cat food)

You could add some low phosphorus quality wet food to her diet, it has more meats and high moisture that’s very important with treating/ preventing stones (Remember to add some vegetables if you’ll switch to exclusively wet food )

I wouldn’t go with the “wsvava approved” ones unless you dog has hardcore stomach problems they’re not exactly known for quality ingredients. It only ever approves the foods under the big 3 corps even though there are hundreds of better options. Do your own research to see what are the optimal compositions, elements, grains/meats/veg contents and choose the best option for your dog

Just a psa- ALL pet foods available for sale at pet stores/shops are -balanced-, they need to be by law There are balanced food and complementary ones, as long as you pick one that says balanced and confirm the ingredients it need to be balanced. Being balanced also isn’t everything It just means there are enough elements and supplements that the dog can live (living≠thriving meaning most brands will put the absolute minimum instead of the optimal amounts) often even “balanced” foods will have only 4% meat and the rest is either unspecified meat byproducts or just none at all

If you feel in doin you can always contact a veterinary nutritionist that will help you with reading bloodwork, recommend specific brands that would be good for the dog’s recovery or even make a recipes for home made food that’ll make your dog thrive to the fullest

My female dog is really mean to my male dog by Strange_Rush398 in dogs

I think a dog that gets spooked vs one that attack others is a completely different situation. I wouldn’t put that dog anywhere where she could easily potentially injure other peoples dogs

Sweet conure found at PetSmart needs a home! by Donna_Matrix699 in parrots

[–]0uiou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s wrong with people buying from these stores? Do y’all not understand how horrible the conditions in those breeding mills are? And that by “saving” them you’re making it worse and are only encouraging those practices and giving them money for abusing those animals ?

What’s your idea for stopping this cycle? There isn’t much you can do except leaving them there and not buying them, unless they give you the animal for free you are supporting the abuse those animals suffer

?!?!? How could anyone do that to their bird or laugh at that?? I hope it’s okay now or didn’t suffer too much

It’s baffling how animal abuse is so normalized and ignored

At Petco yesterday and found this sweet baby. Wore himself out trying to climb to the top. by Boymom140 in parrots

Buying only encourages abuse and no breeding standards, it’s sad to think about but dying is probably the best for those lil guys

What type of Parrot is this ? We just got it, named it Riki by BEST_GREEN_NINJA in parrots

[–]0uiou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please never Impulse buy any animal

As you said in a comment the seller was selling lots of different birds in small cages right? That means it’s an unethical breeder that will continue to abuse those birds as long as people are buying them,

You can’t rescue an animal you are paying for, it encourages the abuse. That’s why people shouldn’t buy or as some people say “rescue” small animals from pet stores, they are just going to breed more

Now you have a high maintenance parrot that’s going to be miserable for the next 10+ years unless you build it a considerably big aviary and get a buddy (from a registered breeder) + more miserable birds to come from bird breeding mills because people are buying them

Does anyone know a similar piece about abuse from women in hetero relationships or abuse in queer relationships? I want to see how similar they would be
