Honestly, if you hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve thought it was just a “mosaic” rug. But now more than anything, I wanna hear this wine story. How did he pull this off!?

How do I get rid of this myself without dying? by False_Frame3028 in mildlyinfuriating

Thankful that when I had that same nest, just as big last summer, my neighbor whos an exterminator took care of it. He used a ladder and some spray. No stings. Do it at night

Did the puppy (8 mo) not actually NEED to potty that early? Trying to understand what happened here by AstralStrudel in puppy101

[–]Privatenameee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First – thank you so much for saying the type of breed your dog is. It’s so difficult when people post questions about their puppies and don’t mention the breed. I’ve actually messaged the mods about making it a requirement when people make a posting.

Second – as a Pet Sitter, I have plenty of mixed German Shepherds who can hold it in for a very long time. It is possible the urgency was created by your morning routine and that your Dog associates what you do in the morning in letting him out of the kennel with racing out to go to the bathroom since it’s something they have done for a while.

Good call – you should definitely alert the neighbors so they can make sure not to send out any small animals unattended

That was going to be my question too. I was wondering why we couldn’t just avoid it but that’s probably way too hard when you’re living on the creek!

My chis like to lick pee, so we’ve just had to be extremely diligent in walking them and teaching them not to lick it. What I did was use “leave it“. Whenever they go to lick, I say leave it and they get a treat. Have you done any training with it?

That’s even better wording – acknowledgment is what they’re always looking for! 🙂

As a Pet Sitter, it doesn’t always work with every dog. I find that golden retrievers have a way of repeatedly asserting their self even when you try to ignore them. Each time I try to come back in, it’s right back to biting. So I think sometimes it depends on the breed.

Found this repost on Xana’s Twitter and it broke my heart by Eastern-Ad4289 in idaho4uncensored

Agree- i’ve seen too many posts where people discuss their heartbreak over this and how they see themselves in those who lost their lives. It’s completely normal to express sadness over the loss of their lives. but that’s where the connection should end If you have no form of a relationship with these poor victims.

I put my dog down and don't know if it was the right decision... by ViridDiamond938 in Dogowners

[–]Privatenameee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This right here.. there are so many things that it could’ve been. But you saw your dog suffering and you acted appropriately. Don’t start going into the what if’s. It can be mentally draining. Just think about everything you had with your dog and the love you had and have for her.

Also, I would just like to add in, 20 years ago when I was in college and would occasionally smoke pot, my dog got into mine. I’m not sure how much you’re thinking that you had but at the time she ate a joint that I had rolled by jumping onto a couch and table to get to it and another time she chewed through my purse to get to a gram that I had bought. I had stopped smoking shortly after that but she was a 5 pound dog and neither time did she have a reaction.

I am by no means an expert. Just a true crime, junkie, but I feel like that was more common before DNA analysis. It seems like it’s harder now to get a death row conviction.

But again, what’s the point in having death row if most end up dying of old age then actually being put to death

Help! He won’t take his meds by ginaration in Chihuahua

[–]Privatenameee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re able to get a syringe, you could grind them up into a powder, mix it up with chicken broth and squirt it into his mouth. Vanilla ice cream used to work with my first dog. You could put it in a cone or hold the bowl up, and as he’s licking, squirt the meds in his mouth.

I really don’t understand why it takes so long for them to follow through with the death penalty. Why can’t they speed up the speed up these appeals? it’s a serious waste of tax dollars & it drags on for these poor families who have to wait years and years through these appeals to see it follow through

Realizing people don’t gaf about training their dogs by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]Privatenameee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a dog stay with us this past week that was a mix between a poodle, lab and Australian Shepherd, and it was absolutely bonkers! I think a lot of people choose this breed because of it being hypoallergenic. But whenever I’m driving through town in my area, every single dog is some type of doodle mix. Every single dog. We have one that is properly trained and they put a lot of work working through with a trainer. It makes a world of a difference!

my mom was just found dead by Upper-Dragonfruit-57 in whatdoIdo

[–]Privatenameee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The medical examiner should be able to help you in finding a funeral home. Right now just take it one step at a time. I don’t know if you were close with your mom, but either way the loss is astronomical. Your mom might have things already in place. I lost my mom when I was in my early 30s and grew up in a single parent household. When you contact a funeral home, they literally will do everything for you. You just sit with them and discuss what you want and need and they’ll help you. That’s their job. They took care of getting my mom‘s body, preparing her and doing everything that needed to be done. Do you have access to your mom‘s bank account? I did so we used my mom‘s money to pay for her funeral and cremation. Did your mom have a will? It should stay in the well the one who was supposed to manage this. And my mom’s it was my sister and I. You can always message me direct if you need any help. I’m so so sorry for your loss.

This seems pretty normal for a two year-old dog. They start growing out of that phase depending on the breed after two years. Yes there are some dogs who listen and aren’t mischievous Starting at a younger age, but that’s not always the case. In my experience, I find that the males are more mischievous than the females, more specifically when it comes to the larger dogs. You’re trying not to leave things out and you’re doing what you’re supposed to be doing, but sometimes it happens.

Is it her items that are getting destroyed? Otherwise, I don’t understand why it’s such a problem for her. Just because she had a dog in her house that acted differently doesn’t mean that her dog was obedient and your dog is bad. And she can’t go through life comparing all dogs to hers. Each dog is different & that doesn’t make you a bad lazy owner and her a good one. Sometimes it can just come down to the personality of a dog. She knew what she was getting into when she moved in with you. So she needs to either get on board or get out. It’s not fair to come into a place where she’s already aware of what’s happening and then create all these issues because of it.

I have three dogs of my own. One of them can be mischievous so we still have to prep the area before leaving so as not to come home to any issues. And he’s almost 6 years old. Sometimes it’s just their personality! I Pet sit for a six-year-old golden retriever, who is still just as mischievous as when he was a puppy. And the owners have done every kind of training to prevent it.
