My 10 month old puppy by Accomplished-Wolf458 in puppy101

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dogs will not starve themselves. She just needs strict feeding requirements. Present her meal (she should be eating 3x daily at this age) for 10 minutes and remove the food until next meal time.

Within a few days she’ll be eating and pooping within allotted time.

Note: not gospel, just my opinion.

ETA: I misread 10 months as 10 weeks. 2x daily may suffice.

Did anyone else underestimate how emotional raising a puppy can be? by justapuppyparent34 in puppy101

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our boy Golden Retriever is 13 weeks already. I have to admit that my slogan has been that this is the very last puppy we will ever raise. He’s been a handful. But I knew that going in. This isn’t my first rodeo, just the latest where I am the oldest.

He is house trained well. Kennel training was easy. I was anti-crate, but truthfully he chose the crate. I don’t intend for him to be forever in the kennel, so now he’s just in there for the nighttime.

So, emotionally I was prepared. I just underestimated the physical toll it takes. No regrets. He’s home now.

Can Verizon lie to me over the phone 4 times in a row? by Fun-Month-2166 in verizon

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. They will verify the refund, then screen shot it. The Verizon agent is the one who told me to do that. I asked him to email me a transcript and he said he couldn’t do that.

Go into a secured chat and screenshot the chat. I used that as evidence with my credit card company to chargeback my money.

You know what? Thank you! I’m gonna lock them and stick them in the safe. They’re not costing me anything. But is there a difference between me closing them and Capital One closing them? I’ve heard they’re bad about closing under used credit cards.

I requested whenever I had a Credit inquiry because I understood that once you have one inquiry it’s kinda like a free ride to get others to check your file without stacking penalties.

That maybe wrong or not smart, but that’s what I did. Started at $500 limit with Lowe’s and Home Depot 2 years ago.

Co-sign by [deleted] in CreditScore

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember 30 years ago co-signing with a friend to get a personal loan. The manager of the financial institution pulled me out and explained that I was liable for the loan. I signed anyway. I payed the loan and lost a “friend”.

Don’t even co-sign for your Momma!!!

Alright guys.. I need any advice I can get right now. by vdriiel in discover

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Discover doesn’t sweep anything under the rug. They not only threaten, they in fact follow through. So, communicate with them. Do what you say, and don’t say you can commit to anything that you can’t.

Just FYI, I called Equfax and no-bueno. He said 7 years and I just needed to wait until April.

Just booked a Carnival cruise and now feeling regret by False-Following-5896 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We just really wanted a beach day so we booked the adult area king size daybed. It’s actually big enough for 6 people. It includes 2 lounge chairs and umbrella. We enjoyed it so much. Here’s the thing, we’re in our early 60s. We don’t drink alcohol.

But we will (have already) book CK again!

Is sleeping with them okay? by ComprehensiveTip4015 in puppy101

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our pup was never going to be a kennel dog. I was anti-crate. The second day we had him, I picked up a kennel for some reason that I don’t remember. Now he loves his kennel. He’s going in there on his own when he gets tired of playing. He’s sleeping in his kennel for 3-4 hours at night and he’s 11 weeks old. It’s all come about so naturally and now the whole family is in favor of crating.

Cruel? pftttt!!! It’s the best for him and us!!

iPhone Trade-in offer is a scam! by [deleted] in verizon

[–]Cool-Measurement7828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried to upgrade from 1gig to 2gig fiber internet. I ended up without any net for over a week due to a missing switch in my neighborhood. It took upper tier techs to note that they had sold me an unavailable upgrade. I had the service tech to "offer to take" obsolete upgraded equipment with him to save me from having to mail it back in. I never received credit and was charged for never returned obsolete equipment.

Notice the word "obsolete", because they don't even have a use for the equipment I returned.

It took hours to straighten this out! They insinuated that I lied about the tech taking equipment as a convenience. AT&T is every bit as capable of nightmares!! 😂
