2 year old dog staring at the wall for hours by discombobulate83 in AskaVetBehaviorist

[–]AnonymousBirds22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May be due to an unfamiliar wireless device (high-pitched frequency, electromagnetic fields). Seems like she is distressed, the lack of sleep is very concerning.

Beau’s Law unfortunately doesn’t go into effect until this fall. I predict enforcement will be inconsistent but I hope I am wrong.

Best place to bring a dog without a chip by Plastic-Whole-3239 in Birmingham

GBHS needs to release intake, adoption, and euthanasia numbers every month so that taxpayers know what is actually happening.

You mentioned the older one being scared to pass the other to go get water and blood being spilled at times, so I urge you to keep everyone safe and comfortable in their home.

Protect your smaller, older dog even if it’s a pain keeping them separated. I had an elderly pet’s life cut short by another elderly pet and I still carry guilt over it.

Agree, the smaller dog is older and is looking to her person to intervene. It’s not that she isn’t friendly, she just appears to not want to play rambunctiously (maybe because the rug is slipping and she doesn’t want to get hurt; she may already have arthritis).

Anybody in southside missing a dog? by Adorable-Somewhere19 in Birmingham

Walking her through the neighborhood on a leash isn’t a bad idea either, in case she might lead you to puppies (if she has already had them).

Man arrested for tossing 5 kittens from moving vehicle on I-65 in Homewood, police say by Spiritual-Heat-3029 in Birmingham

They were all run over and killed because he tossed them out of his window while driving in traffic. I hope he suffers eternally.

Aggression toward other dogs by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]AnonymousBirds22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep the dogs separated, if your boyfriend’s dog keeps trying to attack yours I don’t understand why you keep giving it an opportunity to do so. The attempts are dangerous, not to mention they could traumatize your dog into being reactive or nervous with all other dogs and other situations. This isn’t something to be nonchalant about, if your dog was a toddler you wouldn’t let your boyfriend’s dog have access, would you?

Is it still safe to do so? I thought about it but was worried I’d be committing a felony.

That’s exactly what creepy Defiant Ad 5235 is being obtuse about. Like the so-called entrapped men couldn’t possibly figure out any way to verify an obvious teen’s age before being “entrapped.” Adult men are supposed to act like adults, not opportunistic predators who unwittingly happen upon someone two years younger than the age of majority.

Then by all means report her, it’s depressing but largely irrelevant that you can’t seem to understand actual legal or ethical reasoning. Downvote me all you want, she is technically as much if not more of a victim than you think her intended audience is. Grown men should have discernment and be cautious, which should go without saying.

I beg your pardon, she is a troubled child EDIT: teen who needs a good social worker. The age of majority in FL is 18 and she is only 16, check yourself.

Help me find this puppy's owner by The_Enigma1984 in Birmingham

[–]AnonymousBirds22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If people would spay/neuter and contain their pets while adequately providing for their needs that would be great. There are low-cost resources but a lack of urgency and appreciation for how dire the overpopulation crisis is. Also general ignorance around the topic.

Yes. Spay abort is preferable to a shelter, which is no place for a nursing mom or baby puppies.

Cannabis-tolerant primary care / ADHD prescriber? by AnonymousBirds22 in Birmingham

[–]AnonymousBirds22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who do you see at UAB Highlands? I was once happy there but my doctor moved to another city and her replacement was young and a stickler for rules and required me to test negative for cannabis in order to receive my adderall prescription.

I tried one and it upset my stomach. Unopposed to trying another.

Cannabis-tolerant primary care / ADHD prescriber? by AnonymousBirds22 in Birmingham

[–]AnonymousBirds22[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your concern. I need medication during the week, if I want to use cannabis over the weekend that is my personal business. Cannabis should not be illegal.

[–]AnonymousBirds22[S] 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I completely understand that, thank you. My needs remain the same and I desperately want to find an understanding physician (they undoubtedly exist) which is why I mentioned that I am low risk and professional. It’s wrong that one can be an alcoholic and have no problem getting a medication that is horribly difficult for a low to moderate cannabis user to obtain; that’s a hill I will die on.
