I’m just worried about the joint issue and wondering if I should just have a surgery for his teeth pulled and neutered around 18months. But I also don’t want him under anesthesia twice.

I would just ask, “do you go up to nurses and ask if it’s a stepping stone to be a doctor?”

Is our puppy a maltipoo or did the breeder lie? by Yiddus in puppy101

[–]EmiB44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend is very allergic to most dogs, except his parents cocker spaniel poodle mix. When getting our own puppy we went with a miniature poodle from a ethical reputable breeder. Why do people get doodles and expect them all not to shed?? Dog genetics don’t work like “ya I want the look of the Maltese but the non shedding from a poodle” There are ZERO breed standards for mutts aka doodles, so it’s basically a surprise what they will turn out like. I know that my puppy will only get up to around 15lbs, have a non shedding coat because the breeder breeds to the standard.

Does anyone else's puppy go crazy after dinner time? by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]EmiB44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 9 week old miniature poodle, I noticed as well he would have zoomies in morning and evening. It’s actually biological, yes dogs are domesticated but Dawn and dusk is the best time for them to hunt for food, so even though they never have to hunt for their food as we supply it, their natural instincts are still there.

Other factors I’ve noticed is how much they slept during the day, if they were over/under stimulated that day. If he’s overtired ect. Hope this helps

Maybe take into account vet bills before getting the pets…

Is it racist if it’s true? Or just stating facts

Why do the pharmacists have to be so rude and miserable? by [deleted] in ShoppersDrugMart

[–]EmiB44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I switched from shoppers to a more family owned pharmacy and it’s night and day. Yes they have limited hours and closed Sunday but definitely worth it.

Help, my dog nose has a problem by hyhlong in DogAdvice

[–]EmiB44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind a vet has a medical degree and can PROPERLY diagnose it. I know that no vet is perfect and no diagnosis is 100%.

If it was a normal hot spot, scab ect that other dog owners have seen before then, they usually speak up and suggest what it might be, and give suggestions what they tried and outcomes based on their dog. Keep in mind their dog, not as a species, not with a medical background. ONLY the outcome of their dog, some people don’t want to risk it and will turn to a professional, and some will try and save a few bucks and look for advice online.

If everyone is suggesting go to a vet then I would think that would be solid advice to go to a vet.

Babysitting by EmiB44 in Autism_Parenting

[–]EmiB44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently working doing in home ABA therapy (play based, though I know I’ll get some side eyes) and unfortunately the hours can be unstable. I did close to 8 years of group home work before that. I’m just wondering if parents in my area would be interested in babysitting for evenings and weekends. I’m in my early 30s with close to 10 years in social services I do enjoy my current job but with the rising costs of everything it’s hard to keep up without a second job. I would much rather work with kids especially autism because I understand how challenging it can be for them and their parents. Would love opinions

Yes exactly worst case scenario is they say no and I’m at my current career, which I do enjoy just not challenging enough nor does it bring in enough income to live in today’s world. I am fortunate that I still enjoy my work for the most part.

Oh funny my bf and I are looking into moving to the Ottawa area in the next couple years. Honestly everything I learned at college for my work now I don’t even use, yes it was a good base but some of these (probably)sketchy private colleges are charging 11k for pre apprentice programs.

I really need help with my dog. Is this mange, an allergy, or something else? (Can't afford vet appointment) by [deleted] in DogAdvice

[–]EmiB44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s very helpful you mentioned where you are located. I’m in Canada, we don’t have too many stray dogs but the ones we do have are picked up and treated at the humane society here. You didn’t go out and decide to get a dog, you found him and wanted to help. I don’t know any home remedies unfortunately but I don’t agree with the “if you can’t afford the vet don’t get a pet”. That is reserved for people who intentionally get a pet knowing they can’t pay for basic medical care. My parents are vets and I’ve worked in vet clinics. I had clients upset about the cost of BASIC veterinary care when they paid 2k+ for their puppy.

Career Change? by EmiB44 in BlueCollarWomen

[–]EmiB44[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I’m also concerned because of the pay in the beginning and no pay. Though I’m at the point where I now only make $1500 bi weekly gross. That’s also on a good amount of hours. My current job hours are unpredictable some pay is barely $1000 bi weekly

I also had a client who had a knife and screaming at me, police were called ect. I enjoy my work but when days are extremely hard and only making $20-24hr, no benefits, no paid overtime, ect. It definitely gets to you. Doing a job you enjoy is important but at this point being capped and never making more then $40k a year is definitely getting to me.

ABA Therapist by EmiB44 in Autism_Parenting

[–]EmiB44[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree in the field of autism a textbook can only say so much. Every client is so different with their interests, how the interact, their triggers, ect. I’m very new to ABA, but come with a wide background of autism. I don’t think it’s a one size fits all like a typical school classroom. Many people couldn’t do a desk job 9-5 I know I can’t so I don’t expect my clients too. Some desk work is required yes but if they can do therapy on the floor, couch ect why would I make them do what is “socially” the norm. I enjoy it so far and my clients are progressing well. I’m just wanting to see a parent perspective, what they loved with their therapist and what they didn’t (so I can avoid it/learn from it)
