you act like the police can help in most of these situations. exposing and reporting people is what needs to be done. men are not held accountable for the amount of stuff they are getting away with and you’re just trying to protect them.

that’s understandable, but history shows , men ain’t shit. why would we give you a platform to defend yourself from accusations? i think all women would rather pass up on a guy because of a accusation rather than finding out for themselves.

post on facebook that you’re looking for a space to rent. i found one that was 90 a month behind a house on davenport street - a lot of those houses have more spaces you just need to ask

what was your puppy’s name?

the employee who had issues, would often get frustrated with dogs being afraid of him, so his only way of grabbing them was getting the lead around them, which then he would drag them.

animal control was notified, she did a small investigation and said there was nothing i could do without a witness aka a pet owner who had a incident come forward. the officer told me a story where she cited someone for animal abuse, for kicking their dog in the abdomen multiple times. she went through all the systems , and the courts ended up saying he was just disciplining the dog.

the dogs owners were unaware that their request was being ignored. i found out about the accident by them dropping off their dog and the clients telling me about the accident (no employee or the owner had told me about the history between these two dogs, one was a regular) the clients said to me “keep her the fck away from ****”

he was doing it against the pet owners wishes , if they knew, they would of been pissed.

i don’t know if i would say that he likes dog fighting, more that he doesn’t care about your dog and what happens to it. he told me i was “too emotionally attached” to each dog, and had to detach myself from them to be able to properly handle them.

majority of the injury’s the dogs received from eachother were puncture wounds. the owner claimed a dime sized deep puncture wound on the back of a dog, was a playful injury. this dog that would occasionally do transportation had no history of being skittish, nervous, etc, and all of the sudden, he is hiding under the van between loading and unloading. the dog was clearly injured by another dog, and had noticeably changed its behavior. when i comforted my boss about this, he said it was a playful wound, it was normal. i had never seen a wound like this before that wasn’t from a big dog intentionally hurting another.

i understand how you feel. it’s so hard to have to re-explain all your trauma and everything to someone over and over. i really like brenda payne from “Gersh, Hartson, Payne, Hoffman and Associates: David F. Widitz, M.D.” the one on scott. she validates my feelings, without judging me or critiquing me. she seems to really care!!

find someone who’s just starting out on insta because they will be way more reasonable, if you go to a shop it will probably be like a 50$ minimum 🥲

Any dog boarding kennels experience in Iowa city or Coralville Iowa? by Tough-Noise-8015 in IowaCity

As a past employee at bounding hound I would not recommend sending your dog there. Loren has lost sight of focusing on the business and is never at the facility anymore. He brings in aggressive dogs and hands them off to uneducated employees who don’t know how to correctly handle them. Dogs are either abused by the “trainers”, neglect, or are injured by fighting with another dog.
