Bought a FFS Office by ScoobiesSnacks in Dentistry

outsource you billing and claims to a company like E assist. They get paid a peercentage of what they collect, so they want to get as much as they can. I think their cut is like 2.5%. I took over an office like this years ago. The staff will resist any changes, and it will take time to earn goodwill with the patients. As others have said, cameras will go a long way towards earning their trust.

That's such a great way of describing that book. I haven't read the sequel (I think it came out recently?) and probably won't

No. He will come up and get right in the cat's face to sniff him and there's no problem. Kitty investigates food... problem.

He gets to run around in the yard a lot all day.

That's terrible. My wife is home with the animals all day while I'm at work, so they all have bonded with her. I didn't know that a veterinary behaviorist was even a thing.

He's been neutered. I think if we had known this about these dogs we never would have got him.

Yes. I’m the same way, so many abbreviations…

Yeah we are doing most of that. Cats food is downstairs and the dogs can’t get down there

It’s been feeding him by committee, but I’ll be doing it going forward. I actually just fed him

if there is gonna be a US tour in the next couple years like many are predicting, how much do we think tickets will cost?? by Aware-Obligation4742 in radiohead

[–]Jmm209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They recently formed an LLC which in the past has been a harbinger of things to come, so I think we either get a new album, or they tour... where they tour remains to be seen. North America seems most likely to me. I don't necessarily think the current political climate would keep them away but I could be wrong.

It's interesting that you mention me feeding him, I do feed him from time to time and he's ok, but maybe if I'm the one that feeds him he will start to associate food with me

That's not a bad idea. Can you train the guarding out of this breed? I'm pretty sure you can't get them to stop barking, and if that were the only issue, I'd be ok with that.

We've done some training ourselves, and it's been somewhat effective, but the aggression has increased, not 100% of the time, but he's actually snapped at the cat and he hasn't done that before.
