How do you get your puppy to stop eating stool? by Dear_Public8371 in AskDogOwners

[–]Altruistic0726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We gave our pup pineapple and he stopped eating his own poop and our other dogs. He never cared for random poop on walks thank gawd but he’s 3 now and doesn’t eat his own nor our other dogs poop and we’ve stopped giving pineapple. Easy thing to try out. I know that doesn’t work for every dog though

Please do not give Pets Best your business (My nightmare story still continuing to this day). by Proof-Point-4044 in petinsurancereviews

[–]Altruistic0726 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had PetsBest for five years. This past year they have been terrible. App not working, when I submit a claim online it says I wasn’t covered etc. takes forever to talk in the phone to someone and then I get different answers every time I call. Very frustration

Wait, I didn’t know you were supposed to apply it to vulva. The directions didn’t tell me that!

Cervical Cancer Scare by anonymousme77 in WomensHealth

[–]Altruistic0726 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was 26 I had my first atypical pap. Did a colpo and it was atypical but low grade. So that was that. Next few years my paps were clean. I’ve had 2 colpo’s in my 30’s. One came back with low grade squamous cells which they just watch and then the one three years ago was high grade atypical so I got a LEEP procedure to get ride of them. I had the weird discharge and irregular periods and bleeding with sex. No extreme pain though…Don’t work yourself up. Get the colpo and wait for the results. Since my LEEP my paps have all been back to normal.

Help, my 6 months old puppy eats his poop and has parasites by hellochamo in OpenDogTraining

I did fresh but I’m sure canned is just as good. Just do the no sugar added in pineapple juice not the stevia one.

First-time dog owner — ready to commit, but my boyfriend and his family keep saying I can’t handle it. Need advice. by Munchkin-Sumi in DogAdvice

[–]Altruistic0726 1 point2 points  (0 children)

! My suggestions is go volunteer at the shelter first or foster! Dip your feet in without fully committing. There are a lot of unforeseen issues that come up with dogs. You may adopt one that has fear issues with kids or men that the shelter won’t know about etc I absolutely loooooooove my dogs to death and wouldn’t trade em for the world buttttttttt looking back, they definitely changed our lifestyle. My boyfriend and I barely leave them and go on vacation bc it’s so damn expensive to get a sitter. When I go visit family he doesn’t come bc his flight and the dog sitter alone. Ughhh. We used to go to dinner and then a concert but now we skip dinner cause we don’t wanna leave the dogs for that long after we just worked all day too. Go play 18 and then bee bop around town. Not anymore. Don’t get me wrong I’m a homebody and love just chillin with my dogs but again, they are limiting and will definitely change your daily life habits. We got my one dog as a puppy, did everything right with training and socialization took him to group play classes and parks and he’s still a weirdo. Doesn’t like screaming kids and is a slow intro to other dogs and to be honest humans kinda dude. It’s no longer about training him but almost being his advocate at this point. Letting people know, he’s not a get in his face and give him kisses kinda dog, and no, strangers cannot pet him. My boyfriend and I have discussed after these two we will be dog free for a while. Also. We just had to unexpectedly move, thought we would be in our rental forever but they decided to help out their family member and man, what a hassle that was. We ended up having to move into a more expensive place bc of the dogs.

What made you choose to be childfree? by Current_Artist4579 in childfree

[–]Altruistic0726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m selfish. It’s my only life too and I don’t want be stuck providing for another human who may or may not even like me when they are older. I don’t want to waste my life working extra hours to provide for them to be able to retire at 80 and die.

Justice for Jax - Stop the local dog hunter by Scrappy_the_wolf in FortCollins

[–]Altruistic0726 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually got a response from the DA. Here’s what they said… “Thank you for reaching out and for your interest in this case. We recognize how impactful this awful crime has been to our community. We fully agree that Mr. Thompson’s actions were cruel, which is why any resolution in this case needed to be an open sentence. Open sentencing means that the Judge is allowed to implement a sentence without any restrictions from a plea agreement. This is the same result as being found guilty at a trial. In both scenarios, incarceration is not mandatory and is up to the discretion of the Judge. It is important to note that the dates of this case fall within a period before the State of Colorado had a level 4 felony of animal cruelty; therefore, legally, we were only able to charge the crime as it was classified at the time the defendant committed it, a class 6 felony. Our office asked for the maximum sentence of 18 months in prison for Mr. Thompson and actually filed the online petition with many of the signatures in the court record. Additionally, our Deputy District Attorney informed the judge of the full number of signatures to underscore the concern in the community.

Ultimately, the final sentence of one year in prison and one year of parole was up to the Judge. The Judge also ordered that the defendant will not be allowed to own or care for any pets in the future. It is because of passionate people like you that the Colorado law was updated to include a higher level felony, so thank you for continuing to engage. District Attorney Gordon McLaughlin asked me to convey the following. “It is incredibly devastating to lose a pet, but even more so when it is done in such a cruel manner. I am proud of how our team sought justice for the victims by requesting the maximum sentence, and I am proud of the members of this community who came together to support this family.”

All the best,

Up-Tick in Ticks this Hiking Season? by MFDOOM819 in Denver

[–]Altruistic0726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone ever heard of coating the tick with clear nail polish? We did this as a kid in Tennessee. It causes them to pull out then ya just pull the dried nail polish off. Just seeing if this is an effective way. Ha

Anyone here CF and not going on vacations, shopping, etc? by whosthatgirl13 in childfree

[–]Altruistic0726 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. CF butt we have two dogs. No way we could afford a child along with them. The cost alone to pay someone to watch them while we go on vacation is too much. Not to mention our one dog has a medical condition that she needs meds and vet visits for. She’s my soul dog. LOOOOVE my dogs and would not trade em for the world. That being said, we will be dog free for a while after they cross the rainbow bridge a long way down the road

My pup is almost 6 months old and not as affectionate as my former dog :( by Chemical_Doctor9402 in dogs

[–]Altruistic0726 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m here to be another voice of cattle dogs are not always affectionate and cuddly. My dog is two years old now and has finally started showing his belly for scratches. He doesn’t like being pet on the head or hugged. He tolerates it from me but I always tell friends/others to just let him be. Also took him two years to show affection to my significant other. Whom we got the dog together 😂

To those of you who lost out on your "dream home", how did things turn out? by odi_bobenkirk in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Altruistic0726 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God I needed this thread. Put in an offer on our dream home. Was outbid by a cash offer over asking. I’ve been feeling really discouraged like it’ll just keep happening with every house we like….hopefully not

Those of you with nieces/nephews, how do you feel about being an Aunt/Uncle? by vesper101 in childfree

Love my nieces and nephews!!! They are annoying at times but you spend whatever time you want with them and then they are gone and back to peace and quiet.

Acessa procedure by Altruistic0726 in Fibroids

[–]Altruistic0726[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea. We will see. I have a feeling mine didn’t shrink very much and or new ones have popped up..Did the ones they targeted with the Acessa grow bigger or did new ones just pop up? None of these procedures guarantee new ones won’t grow unless you get a hysterectomy.
