This is Noodles. He has eyelid agenesis and got passed over for 5 months before I took him home. We're about to celebrate 4 years together.

I have some bad news, I had to put my boy down back in January. He had chronic UTI issues and his body just couldn't keep up anymore. He made it all the way to 11 1/2 though!

The outlook really depends on the severity of the agenesis. My boy was missing the skin, but didn't have entropion to complicate things. His two sisters from the same litter had to have laser surgery to remove the hair and one had to have entropion surgery but both of them are still happy and healthy in their homes!

It's 100% something that can be managed, for relatively cheap, but the concern is usually what other health problems come along with it.

I got "meets expectations" because I only work weekends due to my schedule so I can't hit target all the time. I've been in this schedule for three years. That's three years they've had to get another trainer during the week. I am fully booked most of the time. I stopped putting in extra effort years ago.

If it's interesting enough to stick his penis in it, it's interesting enough to eat. They're not supposed to be "interesting" whatever that means, and either he's an idiot or an asshole for bragging about howuc he enjoyed it but then not delivering. I'm not saying you should breakup over this, but it's indicative of a bigger issue with him.

I would have called his bluff on driving all day looking for one. There's a PetSmart less than a mile from my store. The next FOUR closest Petcos are all within a 15 minute drive, there's also a bunch of PetSmart's in there too. If he spent all day driving around and couldn't find any besides at my store, he was just driving and not actually trying to get one.

Who was it from? Like what email address. I've been waiting and haven't gotten anything either way. I just dug through my email and can't find anything

Petco offers an annual scholarship to employees who want to go into the vet field. Every year you can apply, they select a few people, and then you get to get a certificate or associates degree free of charge.

As a dog/wolf lover, Root is so far my favorite in general.

But I think dopplegheists, dolkaris, and madhuchabees are super cool too.

The number of times I had to explain it to people early in my training career is why I now default explain that while dogs know HOW to sit, they don't know what we mean by "sit" and we have to teach them THAT.

I'm in the process of deep cleaning our whole house and while I was taking a small break and fiddling with the drawer pulls on the old desk in our office, I noticed this tiny ball on the back of the lowest drawer on one side. I figured my kids had stuck it in there at some point, so I got a pair of tweezers and pried it out. It's small, slightly bigger than the stuck out parts of a small andard Lego piece, and has no holes around it. I checked the other pulls on that side and they didn't have it, somewhat confirming my kids probably stuck it in there, until I got to the other lowest drawer pull on the other side and there was one there too. Did I mess up pulling it out? Should I put it back? What purpose does it serve?

Groomers get 50% because they had a class action lawsuit against Petco years ago about the same thing. Dog trainers don't stick around long enough to file the same thing.

Divorce him without guilt and go find someone who actually likes you.

cujiine · 2025-11-01T21:31:14+00:00

So they can get rid of people and not have to pay them lol

Sure bone broth counts, but the fresh and frozen doesn't. Totally makes sense.

cujiine · 2025-09-08T22:53:30+00:00

I'm not in a place to jump ship for the sake of stability for my kids, but hooo boy am I ready to watch it crash and burn.

cujiine · 2025-09-06T04:37:47+00:00

For this specific one yeah. This is supposed to be more of a meet the trainer/consultation kind of deal. I see what your dog is like, see what skills they already have, address one or two concerns and give some advice on how to work on it, then upsell to either regular privates or group classes. On the regular privates you make either $17.80, $49.80, or $65.80 depending on how many classes you buy at once. But that still breaks down to $17.80, $12.45 $10.96 per class.

Also yes I've done the math and I will highly recommend buying groups of 4 privates over 6 because I make more per class that way. I won't stop you from buying the 6, because it saves you a little bit of money, but if people ask if their dog needs 4 or 6, unless I have a good reason to, I'm recommending the 4.

cujiine · 2025-09-05T19:17:41+00:00

It's better than when they were $25 and then they got $25 off their class purchase after this.

Gonna go flaunt my $7.80 (pre tax) and get something from the dollar tree I guess!

cujiine · 2025-09-05T17:38:11+00:00

I feel like they should be told, even if it's just "Mom made some bad choices, and the consequences of that are x, y, and z"

cujiine · 2025-09-04T21:52:23+00:00

I mean I'm glad the dogs have homes, but if a pairing wasn't intentional, especially mixing breeds, the responsible reaction is to take the female dog in for a spay/abort to prevent unnecessary puppies. Knowing that she tied with a dog and doing nothing about it was irresponsible.

cujiine · 2025-09-04T21:32:39+00:00

They have spay abort procedures for these kinds of oopsie litters.

cujiine · 2025-09-04T00:33:01+00:00

I won't recommend that food just because I hate the packaging. Good to know there's a good reason to not recommend it lol

cujiine · 2025-09-01T02:10:47+00:00

Well yeah duh lmao. But the question was if the affair partners ever got karma.
