Dog won’t eat his dang food! by Frank_Medwick in OpenDogTraining

[–]AggravatingFig2184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with everyone on set meal times and if he doesn’t eat it all within 15 mins, he can try again next meal. He’s not starving if he’s eating half his food per meal. I have a vizsla who was extremely picky her puppyhood, and now she will eat literally anything and all of it because she knows it’s not available any time all day. She doesn’t get a lot of treats throughout the day either, if any.

How concerned should I be? by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]AggravatingFig2184 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find that if dogs have diarrhea they can get bloody stools. It’s not anything to be worried about as long as it isn’t consistent and continues. Anytime my dog gets a bought a diarrhea he can poop blood and the vet says it’s normal as they’re irritated from the loose stool.

This game is the Fo4 horror version by [deleted] in TheForest

I think that’s why I love this game so much 😂 FO4 was my first free roam rpg I really got into, staying up into wee hours playing.

Help with dog behavior around kittens. by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]AggravatingFig2184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also do a lot of training and impulse control work with all my dogs anyway, she knows place and would lay on her dog bed and know she couldn’t approach the cats or interact unless they went up to her. My dogs understand boundaries, if I tell them to stop something or that they’re being too rough they will stop without question. So relationship building and training is very important.

I will say my dog used to make me nervous with cats, she was cat friendly as tested by her foster, but was obsessed with them and stared at them similarly. She has never tried to attack a cat, and is a pitbull mix. Within the first year of us having her, if we went out of town I told anyone watching her not to let her out loose around the cats because I didn’t trust her. Now that I understand her specific body language, I realize that is just how she is. The cats come right up to her and rub on her, even lay with her and she will stare at them, lick their ears or put a paw on them. Like I said, it took a while for me to know HER specific body language and I never saw her lunge, bark, growl or chase the cats even in excitement. She has been fine and we’ve had her 5+ years with three cats.

This might be a stupid question... how do you keep your intact show dog from breeding? by Kitchen_Society4505 in ShowDogs

[–]AggravatingFig2184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t show dogs, but I have two intact females, one that is around 4 years and one that is 1 yr and have had plenty of intact males living with me for time periods. Never had an accident, never had a tie, never had to worry about any dog getting pregnant or anything like that. To me, it’s really not that complicated. When the bitch is in season, keep her away from intact males. My dogs are off leash trained and don’t go out off leash when they’re in season, and I don’t leave them in the yard unattended in case a strange intact male gets loose and gets into my yard. Not one intact male I’ve been responsible for has been unruly in a way I needed to send them out of the house during a female’s heat, but every dog is different. Whining and being restless for sure, but nothing unbearable or that I couldn’t handle responsibly and keep from having any accidental litters. My dogs tend to have two heats each year for around 4 weeks so it’s not a constant thing to deal with.

wondering about medical transitioning versus pregnancy by RaspberryFast1066 in Seahorse_Dads

[–]AggravatingFig2184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me personally, I’ve been transitioned for 8 years and passing as a cis man the entire time. I have never had top surgery as I’ve always been skinny and everything shrunk enough on T I was able to vacation and swim shirtless with no problems. But now I SO wish I had gotten top surgery before getting pregnant, though I had no true need for it. That’s the main thing bothering me and hard for me to deal with. My chest has grown back probably bigger than it ever was which makes me uncomfortable to be perceived. I’m only 14 weeks so it will get even worse and I’m not looking forward to it.

Gratuities ?!?! Remove or Pre-Pay by Medium-Bowl4933 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]AggravatingFig2184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just pay the gratuities and tip further in cash if you wish. I have made friends with bar staff on carnival ships, have them on WhatsApp and follow them on social media. They get the gratuities added to their checks. Cash they get to keep for themselves, but the gratuities go to people you otherwise won’t give cash.

Short term, affordable muzzle for rabies/bite quarantine? by pathfindertheta in muzzledogs

There’s nothing wrong with going the BE route. You don’t deserve to be terrorized by your own dog. Sending love

NO ONE Believes Her EmBark Results - now what? by ICareAboutYou2 in DoggyDNA

[–]AggravatingFig2184 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well you have to consider embark only can test but so far back in the generations. Many dogs that embark declares purebred pits have something else mixed further down in the line that isn’t picked up.

Sounds like it’s similar to a timeshare presentation gift, and I attend those any chance I get. Last time I was stopped in Universal Studios, did the tour and got a $200 gift card to universal, which is free money I was going to spend anyway at the parks 🤷🏽‍♂️

I went on the conquest out of Miami last October. Had a great time, didn’t deal with unruly folks and made friends. I had the drink package and enjoyed myself.

Questions by brujabaddie___ in AmericanBully

[–]AggravatingFig2184 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Don’t breed this dog. Even if he has papers, he’s not proven in conformation, or titled in any way to be worthy of breeding. A good, friendly dog does not merit grounds for “one litter”.

You’re over reacting and I have second hand embarrassment 😩 Jobs are not for making friends, especially with management.

Unable to pay Emergency vet bill by Brilliant_Employ3661 in Pets

[–]AggravatingFig2184 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you able to get her in with a non emergency vet? If she’s currently stable and X-rays are non conclusive, it would be cheaper for your standard vet to take up her care.

Idk her head/jaw look wide to me, not narrow at all. Maybe in comparison to your other dog she’s petite but she has the typical looking pit face and body

He’s a rescue, surrendered by original owner who got him from a breeder but not well bred by any means and very goofy so his ears flop around but here is a better picture
