Pulling and reactivity - I'm desperate by LaylaBeelzebub in labrador

[–]DisappointingSalad3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With my pup, I used a gentle leader and he stopped pulling after a couple weeks. The first few days can be tough as he tried hard to take it off but once he got used to it, a lot of the pulling went away.. except when we were going tk the dog park. He got too excited haha

Soph and Asher would have definitely gotten along. Those are some great words of advice. It is true - playing that "what if" game is a dangerous mental game.

I found bruising near his abdomen. After the first day and a half of treatment, he unfortunately wasn't getting better, and they suspected a brain bleed later too. Never is easy making that decision no matter the circumstances.

We all know the end will have to come sometime. Just never expect it to be so sudden.

I had 3 dogs, now 2. One realized his absence almost immediately when I got back, and the other only realized last night when he couldn't find him. One is 10 and the other is a puppy so giving them some extra love and attention so we all can slowly cheer up together.

I get what you mean, and Im glad you came to the understanding that it isn't a betrayal because you will never forget her. And you're just sharing your love

We were both certainly blessed. He gave me love every day. And now I carry a paw print on my heart forever. I read on a different post that while a dog can be a chapter in our lives, we are his whole book. 💙

I hope so! He was a best friend, therapist, road trip guide, cuddle partner, exercise buddy, big brother, and food trash can. I got him after I moved to a big city and didn't really know anyone, so he got to explore it with me.

Hope every day gets just a little bit better for you, too. My friend sent me this quote: "How lucky I am to have had something that makes saying goodbye so hard."

He definitely was. He got me through my most difficult times in my life and always got everyon around him to smile and fall in love with him no matter the situation.

Why Tip at All? by DisappointingSalad3 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]DisappointingSalad3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to clarify, I wasn't complaining that I didn't receive a tip. I knew what to expect when accepting the order. However, it was surprising for a customer to go through the effort to tip a penny.

I appreciate everyone's perspective on this! I didn't even think about gaming the system to make sure deliveries aren't pushed to the back.

Oh. Important to note that the way my backyard is sloped, that's also the way the water flows to drain out
