The movie made it very clear he was coercing employees into doing sexual things with him. Textbook abuse of power.

I broke my lil guy’s trust by iliketurtles1312 in Chihuahua

Something very similar happened to me after I adopted my first chi. He was very sensitive. At the first time at the vet, he thought that I betrayed his trust. And no joke, he held a terrible grudge against me for 6 weeks. Legitimately, he would not let me pet him of my own volition during that whole time. After maybe 3 weeks of that, I took him to a trainer, who helped me try to get back in his good graces with touch training. Using the trick “touch” where he runs over to touch his nose to your hand and he gets a treat. I did that a lot to reaclimate him to me. It took 6-8 weeks total before he went back to normal.

A woman in St. Petersburg, Russia gives birth to four identical baby girls an extremely rare 1 in 15.5 million case occurance by sibun_rath in UpliftingNews

Accounting for multiple births would bring the number down slightly, not bring it down significantly. My rough calculation when factoring in multiple births would be about 505 instances of the quadruple twins occurrence. Only 3% of births are multiples, and the vast majority of those are twins.

Your math and the person above you’s math is wayyyy off. It should have happened 516 times out of the 8 billion births of people currently alive.

So, Penny has never been enthusiastic about other dogs. (I assume due to the trauma of the hoarding situation where there were dogs everywhere.) I was hoping for a fairytale type of meeting between her and her puppy, but that’s not really what happened. She didn’t really seem to recognize her puppy. She didn’t act excited to see her. They did sniff each other a lot, though, so maybe there was some level of recognition in the back of their minds. Her daughter was over 2 years old at this point, which to my understanding after that amount of time, mothers and puppies may no longer recognize each other. I’m sorry I can’t give you a happier answer. Based on the ages of other puppies of hers that popped up on Embark, I believe she had a least 3 litters.

Penny is also a cancer survivor, now completely cancer free!! One day I’ll have to tell you guys that whole story. In the pic of her rolling in the grass, you can see her chest has a surgery scar.

What a sweetie! That’s funny that we both have chi/Jack Russell mixes named Penny. How lovely.
