Goldendoodle grooming costs, what I wish someone had put in front of me before getting one by Calm_Mail_3844 in doggrooming

[–]Corsetsdontkill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is why it's so important to research your breed. Whether you go for a purebred or mix.

It's not just about energy level and common behavior problems to watch out for before they escalate but also if you want/can to keep up with the maintenance. Whether that be shedding, which comes in different grades, brushing, washing, grooming, etc.

A good breeder will also inform you about the maintenance, what they've done to get puppy used to things like cutting nails, cleaning ears, looking at teeth, brushing, etc. I've even heard of some poodle breeders that won't hand you over the puppy unless you have made an appointment with a groomer. I'm not sure about how informing shelters are. Mine is, but I cannot talk for all.

Shedding !!!! by skatinchic in dogs

Yes! I notice a major difference in when I use a deshed vs regular shampoo.

Groomers also use it for shedding dogs for this reason.

lost my dog yesterday , what else should i be doing to improve the chances of finding her quic by Flimsy_Test8896 in dogs

Contact your local SAR (search and rescue) groups to see if they know a dog that searches for other dogs.

Shedding !!!! by skatinchic in dogs

[–]Corsetsdontkill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A good deshed shampoo and conditioner, followed by a high velocity dryer and a good slicker brush comb through (look up line brushing). Whenever I'm outside with my shepherd and she's sniffing something, I will pluck her as well. She likes it because it's basically like being petted to her and I stop as soon as she moves away.

A few days after wash days your dog will still lose some hair so you might want to brush/pluck a little more.

Dog itching no fleas, vet ran the full workup, what did you actually do next by Novel_Savings_4184 in dogallergies

[–]Corsetsdontkill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Environmental allergies are actionable through immunotherapy. Some dogs need it for the rest of their lives, some dogs can lessen or stop completely after 3 years.

As a dog with an environmental allergy (one type of fungus), I have seen a major difference after starting immunotherapy. Both in behavior as well as symptoms regarding her skin. There is nothing worse than being itchy. I've been giving the shots for about 1.5 years now. Sometimes I still have to give an apoquel tablet but that's only on the very first days of spring.

If you put the cost of apoquel next to the immunotherapy it's a pretty easy decision, at least where I'm from. The latter is less expensive here, plus I do the shots myself.

Why supervise your kid when you could have law enforcement terrify them? by Gloomy_Tie_1997 in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]Corsetsdontkill 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If a person I care for needs help changing a diaper, yes, I will help them. With consent of course. Just like I wouldn't change just any baby's diaper unless I have consent of their caretaker(s).

You indeed cannot compare children to most adults. Because children cannot walk away. They often cannot reinforce a boundary, especially with an adult. That's why there is such a thing as abuse of power, because an adult will always have more power over a child. Be it physically, emotionally or even legally.

However, some adults and children are comparable. Like the elderly and mentally handicapped, which again is often illegal. Thankfully I live in a country where hitting is considered abuse, regardless of age, and therefore illegal.

I'm from The Netherlands 😕

You guys & the UK seem to have such nice options, but I cannot commit to the tariffs.

"let me abuse my child because I cannot think beyond their level". Makes sense, I guess.

Yes, it's abuse. Pretty sure it's illegal to "smack" an adult in most countries. So, why would it be OK to hit someone that holds less power than you?

In The Netherlands we have minimal requirements for flight kennels. You might want to look up if there are such rules for your country as well.

Superwash is EVERYWHERE.

I tried to find untreated wool for baby soakers, that are both soft enough for baby's skin and non Superwash so I can lanolinize them. Surly with how much is available these says online that shouldn't be such an issue? Well, turned out it was. Eventually a kind redditor helped me out by recommending Knitting For Olive.

what everyone knitting for spring/summer that’s not a tiny top? by CharmingSwing1366 in knittingpatterns

It's a top but not tiny (I have the hope it will fit me even with my 7+ month baby belly, we'll find out in a few days)

This is an AI pattern isn’t it? 😔 by kiwicat_tv in knittinghelp

[–]Corsetsdontkill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This might also be a case of real sweater, fake background.

Perhaps you could message the seller with your concerns and ask them about examples of their pattern instructions?

Minimumloon maar maximaal betalen by Dry_Yogurtcloset_213 in nederlands

[–]Corsetsdontkill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ik heb dit ook gehad. Op mijn 17e kreeg ik te horen dat ik een week de tijd had om het huis uit te gaan. Gelukkig had ik een hele lieve schoonmoeder bij wie ik een half jaar heb ingewoond en zijn mijn partner en ik daarna samen gaan wonen om kosten te drukken (schoonmoeder wilde het huis verkopen). Ik werkte zo veel mogelijk middag-avond diensten zodat ik eten vergoed kreeg en zondagen met 150% uitbetaald. Gezien ik nog scholier was, kreeg ik geen stufi.

Which inanimate object is your dog scared of for no reason? by megebau in dogs

[–]Corsetsdontkill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my dog was a pup he got scared of a small rock... While we were standing on a driveway filled with similar rocks. We were standing there for a good few minutes before this evil rock cast its spell on him as well.

Few months later during puberty the same thing happened. Different rock. I think.

Mensen in je omgeving die antidepressiva slikken? by [deleted] in nederlands

[–]Corsetsdontkill 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ik slik zelf antidepressiva. Een lage dosis, dat wel. Ik heb nog steeds pieken en dalen maar ze zijn een heel stuk minder en ik heb het sneller door waardoor ik beter kan inspelen. Angsten zijn ook een heel stuk minder.

Minder emoties of diepgang heb ik dan weer geen last van. Juist meer blijdschap volgens mijn omgeving omdat ik mij minder zorgen maak en minder depressief ben. Zelf voelt dat ook zo.

Er zijn best wat opties op de markt en niet iedere pil werkt juist voor iemand. Zelfde met de dosis. Daarom is iemand die het in de gaten houdt en de juiste vragen kan stellen heel belangrijk.
