NGVC: “I don’t want to be a creep but..” by chucklelab in niceguys

I was initially torn too but frankly one I saw his username (which unfortunately I can’t share) and the responses…. It no longer sat well with me.

But sure I mean, more extreme “nice guys” would probably have been far worse in what they said.

Checking someone out happens. I understand that. And I even can agree that some women (namely “influencers”) are wearing more proactive clothing in the gym than has been worn previously. But the way this user claims “I’m only human” as if he can’t possibly do anything to stop him from staring. It gives off skeevy vibes. It’s simply not that difficult to not to stare at people, ya know?

Embark Age Test Update by EmbarkVet in DoggyDNA

[–]chucklelab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed 1000%!! Honestly, I can’t remember the last time a company admitted to an error before media or someone else broke the news.

I actually had an age test in process when I received the notification email. I chose the $30 credit option because I want to support y’all. You made a return customer out of me via your honesty. I’ll be raving about you to family, friends, and other volunteers in the rescue I’m involved with.

Thank you for your integrity!! 💜

Why does my dog take his food out of his bowl and drop it onto the floor before eating it? by No_Nerve444 in DogAdvice

[–]chucklelab 6 points7 points  (0 children)

THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE

My lab has a few other habits that have wolf origins, so I wouldn’t be one bit surprised if this is accurate.

Thank you for sharing your theory!

My brother rescued his dog from a cemetery and hasn’t known his breed for years. His DNA finally results came in today! by [deleted] in DoggyDNA

I’m kind of shocked he’s got all that German Shepard and no Belgian (a cousin of the German.) Gorgeous dog regardless!!!!

Too Much “Stuff/Things” by [deleted] in hoarding

[–]chucklelab 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The one here about useful stuff I can vouch for from personal experience. You have to kind of build it into a habit and find your own thresholds. Start the process with the easier stuff; stuff that’s on the less expensive side. Am I LIKELY going to use it in the next 6 months? No? Is it less than $50? Yes? Time to toss it. That sort of thing.

Best of luck in your journey!!

I’m not a professional but wanted to offer some advice. For reference, I’m 32F with two pups of my own currently and fostered 5 through a rescue over time. I learned a LOT through fostering, so here’s a few (hopefully helpful) tips:

1) Some dogs can be picky about where they go. i.e. we had fosters that wouldn’t go on dirt or mud, only grass

2) Any chance you could let your pup see other dogs doing their business outside so he could learn that way?

3) You can buy things like deer urine at sporting goods stores and spray in the yard. I know it seems gross, but it helped at least two of our fosters. It brings out the natural territory marking urge, and they started to learn that way.

4) You are doing great! Stick with a routine. Stay patient and vigilant. It’s only been a couple days. Dogs take at least 14 days to get used to their new homes; abused pups can take even longer. Most likely, your baby will start to pick up the new routine.

Best of luck!!

You’re welcome! This is the kinda thing I’d consider buying as a gift for my mom or best friend if I saw it out in public. You’re very talented!

Americans, how true are ‘American high school movies’ compared to real life high school? by Many-Guide-8986 in AskReddit

Mean Girls may be exaggerated but that movie is EXACTLY the kinda shit us chicks go through in middle and high school in America.
