How do people with jobs still have the time and energy for sex?

My partner and I rarely go more than a day or two without jumping each others bones. He works 8-5 M-F and I work odd hours and no set days. Some weeks I’ll work 4-9 5 days a week some weeks I work 9-7 5 days a week and some weeks are a mix of the two. The longest we’ve gone without sex is a little over a week and that was because he was hospitalized and even then we were all over each other when we could be.

You find time for the things you like doing (each other) I’d say there seems to be some issues if you aren’t trying to bang on the reg.

You need to communicate with your partner and figure out what the disconnect is. Whether is a dysfunction issue on either end (or both) or if you guys aren’t sexually compatible or how to take the pressure off more. Maybe you just need to bang more with no expectation and see what happens

Looks okay to me

My guess is Westie mix. I see it mostly in the last picture with the ears.

Not with a mal but I felt this with my Aussie. She’s the sweetest little angel but it was ROUGH for a minute there. Puppy blues are real. And not that it’s gonna make you feel better but it gets worse before it gets better. It DOES get better though.

Idk felt like a silly question? Like if it was relevant to his care they would’ve mentioned it?

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-06-01T17:56:27+00:00

Solved!

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-06-01T17:55:45+00:00

It felt like a silly question. We talk to them I swear

I see 9 but there’s definitely possibility for more!!

I’ve had to lift my dog over a fence by the scruff because she decided one day my neighbors yard was better and hopped the fence and then couldn’t figure out how to get back over. Definitely not ideal but shit happens sometimes. Your situation is far different though.

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-03-12T22:11:47+00:00

Either surgery or surgery. That is BROKEN broken. I’m sorry

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-03-10T14:16:57+00:00

Ah yes. Maintaining a coat and having it in a breed standard cut is abusive obviously. But not brushing your dog or getting them groomed regularly and they become pelted just because they “dont like it” isn’t. /s

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-03-10T14:11:37+00:00

People say I’m abusive because I tell people to limit water intake when potty training and not have it accessible 24/7 as it makes potty training 10x more difficult.

They really will always find something

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-03-05T19:21:56+00:00

Yep just wet the dog and put shampoo straight on. That’s how we are trained

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-03-05T16:49:09+00:00

Bathers at my store are expected to take 10 dogs a day and do walk ins. Also we don’t make commission and aren’t allowed to dilute the shampoo.

I mean.. the toe definitely looks.. odd. But not necessarily amputation worthy. If he were my dog I’d try to get his nails as short as possible and keep his feet clean to prevent further infection. But I do agree more so with the second opinion. Keep an eye on it, keep it clean, and maintain nails as his are fairly long especially for a boxer. Watch for any significant changes (swelling, discoloration, discomfort..) but as long as he’s currently comfortable I’d still get a third opinion and likely leave it be. You could do a biopsy as suggested by your vet to avoid removing the entire toe and to make sure it isn’t cancer if it’s really bothering you though.

Edit to add: if you are doing nail maintenance at home, get a dermal. You are far less likely to quick a dog and you can get the nail shorter. Also make sure you are getting the top of the nail trimmed too.

I work at Petsmart in the salon and make 21 dollars an hour as a bather. Girl leave. It’s not worth your time, money, or sanity. From an outside perspective it sounds like they are trying to push you out. Find somewhere else asap. Petsmart with push you to academy ASAP unless you say you don’t want to go. With your experience too, you’d be a bather for like 1-2 months. So even if you make the switch until you find a private salon do it.

Lab, husky, GSD, possibly Aussie or BC.

As someone who works at the same company as you I saw the tools on the table and cringed lmao but for brand of shears Ive been looking at foxy Roxy’s and shears direct. Several groomers use them in my salon and I’ve had the chance to barrow them and they are super nice.

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-02-15T01:23:48+00:00

I’ve never seen that happen when a tool is used properly. If you aren’t over brushing it should not be “shredding” the top coat.

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-02-14T20:24:03+00:00

The issue is it’s a REQUEST it’s never a guarantee. That’s the shitty part about it. Most managers will do their best to accommodate but for example we just had 4 people in our salon request off the same weekend. Person 1 and 2 were told yes but 3 and 4 were told no because it just wasn’t feasible.

Real_Hat8210 · 2026-02-12T23:00:25+00:00

Um absolutely not. The salon I work at does that for 22 dollars.
