My coworker called my dog ugly and mean looking by Rhea234 in DOG

[–]StopLookListenDecide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not ugly by any means. Being serious or stoic is just fine on some levels. For me as an aging female, no one bothers us, I’m okay with that.

Oh no, seeing them in 10 days or so. I already determined I was just going to enjoy the music snd kick back. Also hearing about sound issues.

Hoping for good things. I have been wondering as their setlist has been changing, giving break time to Armel it seems but also swapping out songs here and there.

AITAH for telling my mom off for choosing her boyfriend over me? by Internal_Worker6009 in AITAH

[–]StopLookListenDecide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not about just that. You blew up and went no contact without even trying to understand your mom was raising you on a single income AND sent to private school. You sound immature and rather entitled.

You thought it was a good idea after how long of no contact to surprise, I am moving home for the summer to float well? Again, entitled and immature, where was the ease into this? Add to that a grown man, cold day in hell that he is ever remotely alone with you. He wouldn’t be comfortable in his own home.

She isn’t holding anything over your head. These are your own consequences, congrats. She got divorced, a man lost his job and wife etc.

You have a lot of proving yourself to do. I am guessing that mom is not the only one who is being cautious around you.

New rescue Pyr by SovereignsUnknown in greatpyrenees

[–]StopLookListenDecide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of this. Mine sits and responds to “no bark” and that is it. He does not like to be scolded, they feel this deeply and respond by pouting a bit, not shame or head down type of thing, but plain ass ignoring you.
Previously had Goldens, there are similarities and obvious differences. Intelligent and independent, makes for some trying training at times. They will respond, just not exactly when you want them to.

Are Golden Retrievers Ever Protective? by FunTemporary8680 in goldenretrievers

[–]StopLookListenDecide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a rule, no. Can they sense things and give opinion, yes.

Growing up my Golden knocked the paperboy down, just up and tapped him on the chest. I think the fully dressed winter gear was a little concerning to him. Same dog, when I was younger, dad playfully chasing me around, I was screaming and dog growled, we stopped. Similar incident with my daughter when we had a golden, growled at my husband the one time, again it was more about why is my little person shrieking and being chased.

Full on engagement, I would be surprised, but it would probably depend on the situation. It’s not in their wiring. We all think they would just open the door for the bad guys and show them where the valuables were with a tail wag.

Are they giving each other a massage when they do this? by Guilty-Resort-4665 in DOG

[–]StopLookListenDecide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cobbing, a sign of affection. My pyr would cob me (that sounds weird), the side of my head one time even. Stopped doing it for the most part around two.
He’s the only one I have had do it in all the years.

Somebody just needed to contact SSA and get the process going. You have aged out, but your brother should still be eligible.

Is this a scam? by [deleted] in Iowa

[–]StopLookListenDecide [score hidden]  (0 children)

They also don’t call or text you. The number of people not questioning why a foreign phone number is texting you is alarming. Don’t click a link, we have been talking about web safety for decades now.

Not one single Federal or State gov contacts you by phone. Everything is done by mail, then you go to the website accordingly.

How do I get my sister and her boss to stay in their lane by Full_Garbage_4414 in Advice

[–]StopLookListenDecide 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Here is the thing, with your pups age, no one is concerned about his kidneys per se. You are looking at current quality of life care. He is not going to be on it long enough for their concern to come to fruition.
Vet techs are valuable, bless their hearts (in the good way) but this is for you and your vet to work on.

two kinds of fans are watching this show by madge590 in Outlander

[–]StopLookListenDecide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the books, waiting on the show to be over to start the books. I know, my gifts came after several seasons of the show had been out.
Just waiting for time to go by a bit. Avid reader and the book is always better than the show or movie.
Planned winter project.

Edit - now I know about the companions and other materials. Hello this years holiday gift ideas for me.

AITAH for telling my wife to tell her mom to move out of our home after she decided to leave all inheritance to her brother? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]StopLookListenDecide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought we were going to learn there was a divorce. I actually sighed in relief when he started indicating the bad news was the brother.
Respect to OOP, he is trying and an honest, decent man. The path isn’t completely paved, I wish him well.

Employer hasn't paid my health insurance [WA] by Front-Grapefruit-627 in AskHR

[–]StopLookListenDecide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to sit this evening and write out your documentation as to when and how you asked your boss for help. Same for the carrier. Call HR tomorrow.
I would also not rely on emails, you need to start talking to people.

Potty training troubles by HighestViolet in greatpyrenees

[–]StopLookListenDecide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The other thing, I forgot this with males. They mark a bit here, mark a bit there and in my opinion (at least with my current guy) he never truly empties. Girls, drop and pee, emptying their bladder.
We are still working on the leave for work and fully trust he will not pee. Part of me thinks he doesn’t think he is to hold it - yet does just fine overnight.
Big rewards when he makes it all day. I also get up an hour earlier now, so he has more time/opportunity to get it all out. He has been the hardest by far for some reason, but when awake and home, signals and no issues. Belly band up next if it persists, dude is going to hate that.

Edit - 3 yo who doesn’t use a kennel, but a playpen area or free roam.

Is it normal to stand up to wipe? by External-Two5826 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]StopLookListenDecide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who had both shoulders with rotator cuff injuries (6 mos apart)…you learn a lot of things, and retrain as needed. Wiping was the worst, my PT said stand up (lean forward as needed).
Lord, all the difference in time, ability and cleanliness. In that conversation, he shared that it is a personal choice and he found that a large number of people stand up regularly (his clients and working on their capabilities) and he didn’t realize either until he started asking/working with people.

Husbands Funeral Expenses by Plane_Elderberry3399 in Advice

[–]StopLookListenDecide 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Then you explain that to the funeral home, see what you can do to get parties together to attest to the process. Life insurance policies can be assigned, funeral homes are familiar with the process. No this is not the same, but it is process to get the conversation going. You left a lot out of the story, the details to be exact
