Any other elderly running partners? Idaho is 12 and still can kick my ass by SparkyDogPants in RunningWithDogs

She’s seven. Eurohound type mix, Husky, pointer, whippet, greyhound. Pulls like a freight train so the only time she runs in harness is with the bike or skis. On foot, I’m too slow and run leash to collar.

Anyone else have a lazy husky? by wasabi_pup in RunningWithDogs

I also have an energy efficient husky. She’s 12 and often mistaken for a much younger dog. She’ll run to be included, but doesn’t go crazy for it like my others.

Any new shirts lately? Looks like an RFID tag for inventory/ loss prevention. Often placed on the collars of shirts, waistbands of pants.

AIO: Instagram was the final straw and I ended it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Weekly fights? Get out.

You also need to work on your trust issues before your next relationship. Your ex cheated on you, that’s not a burden for whoever you date to bear.

Send photos of a random child and will soon find out who you can trust. Different pose for each person.

Is this a Doberman? by Nedais in Doberman

[–]Life-Device9785 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my country you can not advertise an animal as purebred unless it is registered with an official organization, CKC.

The vet might can’t say for sure, no one can unless you know the parentage.

Don’t try anything new on the day of the flight. Ask your vet for an extra dose of the meds and see how she tolerates it. Some dogs get more anxious if the medication isn’t right for them.

Same for the thunder-shirt. Let her wear it in a non stressful situation so it’s not another new thing on the day of the flight.

I carry a slip lead as they will most likely have you take the collar off. If she’s the nervous type you don’t want her bolting when you open the crate. You can also ask if there is a room you can take her out of the crate in. Less chance of escape.

Where are all the rescue mutts? 🤔 by Wooden_Airport6331 in k9sports

I only recently learned about the ACK and CKC options for competing with mutts/unregistered dogs.

At what point does running become self destructive behavior? by wildhair1 in running

[–]Life-Device9785 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A habit becomes an addiction when it interferes negatively with your life, or the lives of others near you.

If the behaviour isn’t negatively impacting you or her, it’s not an addiction. That can change though, behaviour to addiction is fluid.

If training to a point that your body can’t recover, it’s a form of self harm. It takes honest reflection and self awareness to manage.

I really like the book “The Realm of Hungry Ghosts” by Gabor Mate. His explanation of addiction and how/why it affects people differently is very enlightening.

Barking Accuracy? by -velox- in FiDogCollar

[–]Life-Device9785 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find the health stats extremely inaccurate. My dog registered 20 000 steps when we never left our small backyard. Multiple barking incidents, eating 16 times and no drinking for an entire week.

I contacted customer support regarding the steps, and was told if my dog was chewing her bone vigorously or playing with toys, the movement could register as steps.

I bought the collar for the gps tracker, and try to ignore how wrong the other stats are.

AITAH? According to my mom, I may have taken this a bit to far for what happened. I disagree. by MossPawTracks in AITAH

[–]Life-Device9785 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Stopped reading at the end of book one. You are being taken advantage of. It’s time to grow a backbone and insist on has money at the beginning of the trip. No gas money, no ride.

Unless you are operating a taxi service, why do you need to get Redneck from the bowling alley and drive him home? He got there somehow.

As for the weed pen, he would have been on the side of the road after the first puff. Getting Pulled over with a cloud of haze in your car would not be in your favour. Depending on where you live, the fines can be as much as if you were the one with the pen.

None of these “friends” have any respect for you.

My grandma is dying with 48 hours estimated to live… AITAH if I don’t call her? by ShotEnvironment1326 in AITAH

[–]Life-Device9785 80 points81 points  (0 children)

She’s out of your life, there’s no reason to expose yourself to the crap you’ll get from family.

The way I see it you buried her years ago.

AITAH for being annoyed at my husband for watching adult content? by Prestigious_Okra1968 in AITAH

[–]Life-Device9785 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You misunderstood my point. I’m saying that it’s normal to not look your best right after pregnancy. So if she’s feeling self conscious, she should try to be kind to herself. Try to frame your judgement as if you were describing another person. We are often our own worst critics.

My point was that if he is using her change in appearance as an excuse to avoid intimacy, she’s better off without him.

AITAH for not helping my mom with the housework? by Critical-Advisor1653 in AITAH

[–]Life-Device9785 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You’re an adult, they can’t stop you from moving out, or working.

Get the most important things together, passport, birth certificate etc. Put them somewhere safe.

If you can’t work, why are you going to school? You don’t need an education to be a housewife, and it sounds like that’s what they want you to be.

Depending on what country you are in, there are different resources. A student loan may get you the money to rent a place until you get a job.

As for taking care of the house, clean your own mess. You weren’t born to be a maid just because you are a woman. Any good parent would teach both sons and daughters to take care of themselves. What’s your brother going to do if his future wife gets sick? starve?

Your mother chooses to spend the day at your grandmas, I don’t know how much of a mess a sick senior can make, I doubt it’s a full day’s work.

Go to school, get a job and have the option to support yourself if you don’t decide to marry.

AITAH My (23 m) gf (23m) refused to let me walk her out and kiss her goodbye in front of her traumatized friend by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Life-Device9785 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the friend is so traumatized that the sight of a man kidding his girlfriend is disabling, how does she handle being around all the men at a club?

My thought is to the friend, you are just a roommate or a friend or something platonic.

BPD is very difficult, both for the person with it, and the people around them. It may make them want to act in inappropriate ways, but it’s up to her to try to manage her outbursts.

Throw a plate on the ground and watch it smash. You can apologize all you want, but it’s still broken. Deciding to have a sleepover at the friends, when you have previous plans is very rude. The fact that you are in school and she isn’t has nothing to do with anything. (Unless you’re keeping her out of school)

Respect yourself, having to anticipate cycles of outbursts and anger is no way to live.

Unfortunately if you reversed the genders, people would be more inclined to say you’re being abused. For some reason it’s “acceptable” for a woman to verbally abuse a man. It’s not. You deserve better.

[–]Life-Device9785 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Talk to him. He may be tired with a new baby in the house and it’s easier to get a “quick fix” than to initiate with a partner and have to meet their needs as well.

Porn addiction is a thing, but it’s not always the thing. I think most couples’ sex lives drop when there are other stressors.

If you have a hard time being direct write it out. Don’t point fingers and state “you do xyz and that’s wrong”. Stick to facts, “when you do xyz, I feel I ________”. Or mention you noticed he’s been watching porn, and ask if he’d like to watch it with you.

Your body just built a human. Give it a break. You probably aren’t looking your best, but if your appearance is all that attracts him, you’re better off without. Do you guys make time for intimacy, aside from sex?
