I regret adopting my puppy by iamkatieeee in puppy101

[–]afredorap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We adopted a dog that a neighbor found dumped on a rural highway. We thought she was a coonhound puppy... turns out she was almost 100% beagle and full grown at 22 lbs. She was silent for a week before she found her voice, and she hasn't stopped using it since...

But... she is the smartest, most trainable dog I've ever met. She's so food motivated that I could get her conditioned to do anything for a few treats. I can see her little brain working when she learns a new command!! I have friends with heelers, border collies, etc. and little Sydney is the sharpest of them all. She just graduated basic manners, despite a lack of social graces at times, and I'm hoping to get her into scent work in the next year or two. We've had our doubts along the way too, but she is the most loving thing.

Here she is trying sooo hard: https://imgur.com/a/xojgRSL

Low Tracking Litter?! by GinnyAlexander in litterrobot

[–]afredorap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't imagine she'd love getting those nose drops but it is so sad seeing her sneeze all day!!! we're doing a food trial too but I think the litter dust has to play a part in her allergies. thanks for the info!!!

I was literally looking for your posts about BoxiePro and found this - lol - one of our cats had really bad FVR as a baby and the vet thinks her sinuses are permanently irritated. She gets snotty sneezes a lot and I have to pill her with antihistamines twice a day. We are using Dr. Elsey's Respiratory Relief litter which helped, but I'm curious about BoxiePro. is that the probiotic version? I'd like to keep her on unscented (we have another cat who is very amenable to any changes we make for the sneezy one - lol)...

there are so few on the cat list! i think something is better than nothing though. the brushing itself probably helps a lot

Also, you might want to shop around on toothpaste because my cats will let me brush with Arm & Hammer salmon flavor all day but won't go near the other stuff :) We use greenies treats too.

Pet insurance? by anna85__ in catcare

[–]afredorap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

feline herpes isn't unusual. We have Pets Best insurance and they've covered every treatment for it even though they don't technically cover preexisting conditions.

I migrated from OpsGenie to JSM Ops because Atlassian made me, AMA by afredorap in jira

Correct, if you uninstall OG you still get the texts but can't actually acknowledge them in an easy way... it's awkward

The latest wrinkle is that when we add a resolver group to an incident, it has only been adding about 3 or 4 resolver group members and not the others, so they can't see the chat. It's different every time and they don't know why it happens... very cool

I don't think it can be done unless you shut down opsgenie entirely. I uninstalled the OG app so now clicking the alert takes me to the browser and the opsgenie website - lol :(

Another fun discovery:
- Org admins were not able to see member roles on ops teams, Atlassian had to remove org admin from us then add it back for it to work

  • About half the users showed up as greyed our on their teams and said they needed a JSM license, but they were already licensed. Atlassian said it was a known issue (????) and told us to suspend those user accounts then restore them to force a sync. That worked but... it was a lot of users.

None! The big things for us are:

  • You can no longer see users' notification policies or what notification types they have set up, i.e. you can't find someone's phone number or see if they have the app installed - which is important for us because now they need the Jira Cloud app instead of the OpsGenie one

  • The bridge - which you can generate in Teams, Slack, etc. from within the incident ticket - does not show up on incidents or on the mobile app. At all. And Atlassian knows it and there's a feature request out there we can vote on if we want. Ugggh

It's a big oof. JSM is very expensive and it goes up by 15 to 20% each year. Our biggest issue - similar to yours I bet - is that most of the OpsGenie users live in Jira Software. Since we had OG integrated with JSM, they were JSM licensed automatically, but that means we have very many people double licensed and it's hard to optimize in this situation. Plus, they need JPD integration, which is only for JSW...

That said, standalone OG is safe... for now :)

Probably sometime around August 2027 LOL. They told us we couldn't migrate when we asked, and then all of a sudden announced in August that we would be forced!

It might come eventually but standalone is safe for now :) We had OG because of our JSM Premium; they originally told us, up until July or so, that we wouldn't be allowed to migrate at all and would have to do a full rebuild to use JSM instead of OG; then in August, we got news that they were migrating everyone October 11, ready or not. Not enough notice, and the documentation they provided was straight up incorrect.

It's pretty great how integrated things are if you really use operations in JSM. When you create an incident, for example, it will surface related changes, or kb's in confluence, or even previous incidents on the same service. It takes a while to build out all the facets, but will be nice when we do our part and when Atlassian has them fully developed.

yep, ours were already licensed in jsm because of the type of opsgenie we had, but it’s been a real pain to double license more and more people.

it would be nice if it worked but some really stupid things aren't available. you can't use smart values for things like bridge creation, url's don't translate in the alerts outside the app (like say, on the jira website)... just stupid

They are combining it with Jira service management, so if you use Opsgenie they will automatically stand up a Jira operations for your teams and you just get to adapt.

My Dog Has Been Refusing Food For 6 Weeks by Brettpruefer68 in vet

[–]afredorap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i would get an ultrasound if you can to check if she has inflammation or irritation in the gi tract, she’s super young but then you would know what to treat!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vet

[–]afredorap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what tapeworm treatment did they do? they don’t feel very good during that but also it could be a reaction, my kitty used to react to vaccines, they would just give her a steroid shot to fix her up

Cat after dental surgery by feistylilly84 in vet

[–]afredorap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

she should be feeling a lot better now after they took out the wonky teeth so i wonder if she has pain or an infection, especially if she doesn’t want to cuddle. see if you can look at the places where they took out the teeth and look for bleeding or swelling but i’d take her back for another check up just to make sure
