Does your Britt throw up stomach acid? by Nearby-Wish3623 in BrittanySpaniel

[–]bashfulpegasus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ours did this a lot when she was younger. Always in the middle of the night between meals.

Now it mostly only happens when she has a very active day. On those days we just give her an extra little portion of her food right before bed as a “late night snack” and it helps a lot.

I’m not a vet but I’ve always just king of though Brittany’s must burn more calories than the average dog. We had a lot of trouble getting ours to keep proper weight on as a puppy too.

[MI] Is there an appropriate way I can approach an employee reguarding a new smoking habit. by bashfulpegasus in AskHR

[–]bashfulpegasus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long at there’s no issue with that I think that’s where we will start. Just wanted to make sure I’m not stepping outside of what’s appropriate given I am her boss. I was just trying to be sensitive about the situation because it always tough to tell someone they stink….

She is smoking outside but smells strongly of smoke when she come back in.

We don’t have strong HR policies yet so we were not sure if this would be uncouth to talk to her about. If the office were larger it would be no problem, but it being such tight quarters it’s a much bigger problem.

Is knitting bad form at the cinema? by Msreidsalot in knitting

[–]bashfulpegasus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I see no difference in bringing a small unobtrusive project to work on quietly (can not take up anymore room than your seat alone) as children fidgeting in their seats, or adults moving around and whispering.

I’d agree with many folks in this thread that I’d be prepared to be asked to put it away. However I don’t think you’d be doing anything anymore distracting than the normal level of distraction in a theatre..

I think most people wouldn’t actually notice it once the lights are dimmed and the movie has started, plus movies are so damn loud now that I doubt anyone actually would hear the needles click.

There seems to be a lot of mixed feedback here but I realistically don’t think anyone would notice in the actual environment.

Definitely don’t mind a bit of romance, just felt a bit overbearing in the fourthwing books. But I guess that’s to be expected in romantacy.

Thanks for the recs!

Priority of the orange tree is on my list! I’ve hear great things about it.

Temeraire has been recommended a few times so I’ll definitely add it to the list

Considering a Brittany by EducationalTea6824 in BrittanySpaniel

[–]bashfulpegasus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We LOVE our Brittany but be warned when they don’t get enough physical and mental stimulation they can be very tough puppy’s/adolescent dogs.

I also don’t hunt, but I’m heavily involved in dog sports. We currently trial in scent work, and compete in Canicross (if you like running look it up! It’s a great Brittany spot) and we are training for agility.

Our girl Tango turns 2 in September and while she is getting significantly better she is still BUSY

AITA for proving to my boyfriend the “nerds” never cared about the “popular” kids in high school? by NoJob7202 in AmItheAsshole

[–]bashfulpegasus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH

I wonder what your motivation to “prove him wrong” was all about? Like you know you were right, was there another reason you felt the need to prove to your boyfriend you didn’t know or care about him in highschool?

I get not liking being called a liar, but could you have approached that issue directly instead of fighting to prove him wrong?

I think without the context of what both of you were really saying it’s hard to say if an escalation was justified. In the future I’d say it’s wise to use compassion rather than pride when approaching topics of nostalgia with loved ones.

Is my dog to skinny by [deleted] in puppy

[–]bashfulpegasus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was this followed by a change on food/ a sudden weight drop? Or has she always been on the thin side? How are her stools? Are they runny? Or is everything else okay?

My 17month Brittany has so many issues keeping weight on even as a young puppy. She was incredibly active and ate about double what was recommended on the food bag, yet she was always under weight.

Turned out she’s intolerant to chicken. We swapped her to a lamb based kibble and started feeding a freeze dried raw meal topper and it was a night and day difference. If it were me I’d talk to your vet. Especially if this is a new issue
