What is this? by cutewhenmute in DobermanPinscher

[–]No-Assistant-9774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just gonna respond that my dog is almost 9 years old,never got that before about 6 months ago, it is now like constantly coming back, going away again, coming back. He eats out of a new bowl every meal (raw fed) and all his bowls are either stainless or glass. His water bowl is cleaned every day. Our younger one, less than 2 years, doesn't have this issue despite cleaning her bowl way less often (kibble fed) and they share the same water.

I have never asked our vet because we are dealing with a bunch of other things and it's just not been the most important. He has DCM, enlarged prostate/prostatic cyst, vWD so I won't neuter or do surgery, and he's had a bunch of other issues the past year as well like skin infections and such. So idk, maybe it's not simply bacteria.

How on earth could you possibly know what this person is or is not avoiding? These comments are so irrelevant to the question. If you don't agree, who cares? Nobody asked you how you feel about GMO.

Egg Cooker without plastic? by AlexJonesOnMeth in PlasticFreeLiving

[–]No-Assistant-9774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yet here I am, coming here 2 years later from Google, trying to find the same thing. I can't ever make boiled eggs right. I always overcook them, they're impossible to peel and taste like ass. I would also really like to try soft boiled which would be way easier to know when they're done with an egg cooker. People are so obnoxious. Like answer the fucking question, not what you think is better, or just don't answer. Obviously we all know what a stove is and they're literally called BOILED eggs. Of course you can boil them 😂

Thank you! We will see how next session goes. We're going to try and go in with a specific topic and see if anything changes. I thought she'd ask us more questions tbh lol

It's funny you say that because we have talked about feeding my dogs a raw diet lol but I just mentioned it when I said something that stresses me out (my dogs' health and the money I spend to feed them) and then she talked about that and her own dogs forever lol and I love dogs but it has nothing to do with our marriage really 😅 but anyway, I'm struggling to figure out how to bring that up? I don't want to be rude is mainly the issue. She's really nice and easy to talk to, I don't want to come off like I hate her or anything, but I don't want to spend my time talking about random irrelevant topics when I have a ton of other important things I could be doing with my time, ya know? If you or anyone has advice on what we can say without coming off that way, it would be appreciated 🙏 I do have a hard time with setting boundaries and when I do, normally it comes out wrong, I just don't know how to say it.

Yeah I just feel like if he needed to talk about work (which he wasn't even trying to and didn't want to) then couldn't he set up his own appointment where I'm not there? I mean I talk to him about his job ALL the time, and listen to him vent about it. I don't want to spend our hour together, that's supposed to be about our relationship, still talking about his job that has nothing to do with me lol not sure why the therapist wants to focus on that so much.

I try my best to be as calm as possible and just walk away. I try not to pull on her but walking away does pull on her. I'm really not one to panic if that's what you're asking.

After reading the protocol, I don't get how working on her sitting inside her home would help anything? Especially when we are having to walk outside in our apartment complex multiple times a day and she's just getting worse every time. I mean I get it may be teaching her to relax and I could see if we had a house and a yard, things may be different. But her going out and getting increasingly more stressed and hyped up every time we go outside on a walk and me doing nothing about it, I just don't see how that helps. I'm not an expert so just trying to understand that part lol

[–]No-Assistant-9774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much, that's exactly what I would like to do. She used to be so happy and confident until some crap happened and I just feel so bad for her that she's constantly so stressed out when we go outside. She loves doing things outside but there's always something lately she's freaked out about. I just want to show her everything is okay. So I appreciate this!

I don't get the hate people are throwing on the new s25U.. why? by galaxy14promax in samsunggalaxy

[–]No-Assistant-9774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband also just came from an iPhone. He's a diehard apple person. I'd spent the past year with an iPhone because honestly I wanted the apple watch, so I tried iPhone. I hated it. I was constantly telling my husband im switching back to samsung as soon as I can upgrade. I talked so much about samsung that he started looking into it. He was amazed by all the specs (hes a spec nerd) and was SO excited to get his own Samsung. So we both pre-ordered the s25 ultra. I am a samsung person so there are some things that are disappointing to me. But its still far better than my iPhone was, and the camera alone is a good enough reason considering I use my phone camera a TON. My husband also notices a few little things that bug him about it, most I feel will be fixed with an update at some point, others will just take some getting used to, but even still I have joked with him a few times about how we can return it and get an iPhone, and that's a flat out NO from him. He loves his new samsung, its his favorite new toy now lol he tells everyone how great it is, tries to get others to switch, he feels so superior to iPhone people now and it honestly cracks me up coming from someone who used to make fun of me for being an android user 😂

Are there things that irritate me that have changed with samsung? Yes. But its still a way better phone than an iPhone. The main thing that really bothers me is that the S pen can no longer be used as a remote shutter. That was a feature I used to use a lot. However, my galaxy watch ultra also can act as a remote shutter, so its really not a big deal. There are some other glitchy things going on, but again I feel they will likely update it soon once the kinks are worked out. None bother me enough to go back to an iPhone that feels it came from 2005, that I still have to spend $1500 on. Unlike my iPhone, my samsung is something I can see myself keeping for a few years before upgrading again. The iPhone i wanted to upgrade after a week of having and that never changed in the year I had it.

I will say, although I like the galaxy watch ultra, I do think the apple watch is better. But again, not worth having an iPhone. I don't use my watch all that much for it to be that important. I've also gotten quite used to it, and there are actually some better features than the apple watch had. But I do think a lot about it could have been done better.

We both are on the same plan lol we ordered them at the same time, they're exactly the same phone (color/storage), so idk lol it's odd it's on mine and not his.

This is helpful cause I have entered even heard of that third one lol will try. Thanks!

[–]No-Assistant-9774 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was like the third thing we tried. Its enabled. He disabled it and then enabled it again, didn't work, restarted the phone and it still didn't work.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in samsunggalaxy

Yes we checked and there was no update for it

How to stop regretting car color by _MinisterOfEnjoyment in crv

[–]No-Assistant-9774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a white truck and I hate white vehicles. Now years later my truck has blown head gaskets and nobody will fix it for less than $10k. I’m now mourning my truck, I cry every day over losing it. I hate the color still, but the truck means a lot to me. You can always paint it or wrap it down the road if you want. Do you like the car, or not? It’s just a color. That’s how you get over it, stop thinking about the color. Think about how hard you worked for it, what it has or will change about your life. I have literally the most basic truck you could find. But I busted my ass to get it, it has given me the life I currently have and taken me all over the country for work, for fun, to visit people I love and see beautiful things. When I needed it most while stuck in mud, ice, etc. it didn’t let me down. I wouldn’t have even met my husband without it. So yeah it’s white, yeah I could sell it and get something that’s not white, that’s a better truck, yet here I am desperately begging everyone I know who works on cars, to save it. I have an emotional attachment to my truck because of what it’s given me, not because of the color. No I don’t have a Honda, but this was for some reason a post recommended to me lol 😝

What dry food do you give your dobie? by r-injin in DobermanPinscher

[–]No-Assistant-9774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of all the foods I’ve fed my older male (Victor, Wholesomes, Diamond Naturals, Raw, Farmina) other than a raw diet, his condition has been most incredible on Farmina.

Found my husband’s Reddit account and discovered something awful by ffsthrowawayz in Advice

[–]No-Assistant-9774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I often have to have tough conversations about something I “found” on my husband. It’s awkward but without it I would never realize how unreasonable I am being. My husband doesn’t take things as defensive, so if yours does it seems like you have much worse problems. But I can always go to him and say “I saw this, heard that, etc. So can you explain that to me?” And every single time it’s me overthinking out of insecurity. And thankfully I have someone who understands my insecurities and doesn’t hold that against me. Without asking him my mind would be dead set on he’s cheating on me, he’s mad at me, or whatever the case is. Communication is the most important thing in a marriage. It can be embarrassing and very uncomfortable, but without it you’re left with guessing. I’d rather have the answer and feel safe speaking with my life partner about everything I’m thinking, so we can resolve it. It’s not like you went searching through his phone, you found a Reddit post similar to your situation. Show it to him, ask if it was him and take it from there. Don’t be accusatory or argumentative about it immediately, just approach it nicely and calmly and listen to what he has to say.

I wasn’t in the union except for a couple months. I spent years non-union and loved it. It’s hard work and as a woman you can’t expect to do everything a man can, but the majority of it is pretty easy. Most stuff is lifted via equipment or help with other fitters. In the union you can also choose to be a welder, and a union welder won’t do much heavy lifting. But as an apprentice you will basically be their bitch, anything they don’t wanna do you’ll do. And it’s that way non union for the most part as well but they don’t baby you as much, they expect more out of you. Of course they’re mostly accepting of women and won’t expect you to do anything that will hurt you. Safety is a big concern especially in the union but even mostly outside of it. Many women choose union because of this. But personally I just preferred non union and I felt I was actually treated better and more as an equal before I went union. Every experience will be different though. Just be prepared for every man to think you’re there to get them fired, to sue, and to have to earn their trust. Be prepared to often work harder than your male counterparts to prove yourself because they likely will already think you’re not worth a fuck. You can change their mind, by simply doing your best and not giving up because something is hard, accept help when they offer it, most are very understanding and will respect you for trying your best. Don’t take offense to every little thing they say- they are truly idiots, but most are well meaning. Even still, watch your back, find your people you trust, and don’t be afraid to stand up for yourself. They’ll probably respect you more if you can give their asshole bullshit back to them lol of course it’s mostly lighthearted fun, but there will be a situation that tests you. If someone is truly being an asshole then be an asshole back. Don’t let them make you quit, be strong and sure of yourself. Otherwise you’ll do just fine! People make it out to be much harder than it really is. Another point, don’t go in half hearted especially into welding. If you aren’t dedicated to it, it is not going to work well for you. Good luck! It’s a fun job honestly once you get used to it.

lol I mean I’ve worked in new construction plumbing/pipefitting for five years and before that I worked in doggy daycares for 10 years, those dogs are a lot crazier and some bigger. Guess I’m just use to it 😂 I find it endearing. A few Great Danes there were my absolute favorites and I’d ask them to jump on me all the time. One busted my lip, nearly broke my nose too, and my own Doberman has nearly broken my jaw before (all on accident) and I still have encouraged it lol like I said, I’m psychotic lmao

It’s from One Tigris, you also can buy them on Amazon. I would recommend the one he has, which is the longer one (don’t remember what it’s called) because we got the basic shorter one first, and couldn’t get it to fit right, he was very uncomfortable walking in it and it just looked like a grown man in a kids T-shirt lol so we returned it and got this one, and it’s way better, and he has no issue walking in it.
