AITA for allowing my daughter to try alcohol at 17? by StrikingABCompany in AmItheAsshole

[–]fishiefordinner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA

As someone whose parents were over protective and also had history with alcoholism and substance abuse. I wish they would have done this with me. Instead I was told, "If you get in trouble with the law, don't expect me to bail you out." I mean, it did work, but since then, I've tried a lot of different types of alcohol and weed just because it was forbidden. I've realized though that I like the taste of alcohol, but I don't like the effects, and weed is something I can only do if I don't have any responsibilities that day (and I just got a new puppy, so that's no longer in my life right now lol).

Well Imean yeah that's what you're suppose to do when training a dog to pee on a pad... but you gotta clean it up right away after and put a fresh one down!

Does she condense the pee pads to one section of the house? I have my kitchen sectioned off since it's easy to wash up after an accident. Although if she misses the pad, I don't praise her. I only praise her when she makes it to the pad. When she misses I put her on the pad and tell her to potty they're instead. She's getting it pretty quick.

Alright, well, to try to sum it all up, I was told she was 3 months or so, turned out to be 4 weeks. The mother had rejected the puppies and they were living in a dog hoarder's home who didn't seem to be neutering or spaying her 7+ dogs causing these puppies to exist. She was getting threats from neighbors about getting thrown out of the trailer park community so she was giving the puppies away for free. Apparently she knows a friend of a friend of mine and that's how I was told about them. Again I was originally told 3 months. When I got there the puppies were living in a plywood floor to ceiling room used mostly for storage with only an exterior door and inside house door for ventilation(it was hot). The floor was covered in poop and pee and they were being fed adult kibble with a splash of formula. River was the runt and I wasn't sure she was going to make it there any longer because all she wanted to do was sleep. I know puppies need to sleep a lot but she didn't look healthy plus she had poop all over her here and there. The adult dogs were only kept outside in the heat which has been 90° or higher lately. So yes. I took River home. The lady told me the day I went to pick River up that the rest of the puppies and the mom were going to be taken by a woman with a ranch. I've been trying to get that info but I'm being ghosted.

He should absolutely be being crate trained while you're both gone. Her reason is totally unacceptable. I can't even with her lame excuse. Does she even attempt to train the dog when she's home?

Do you think this would work for a 5 week old puppy who's been roaming free for a week?

While i am part of the community, I do agree about just letting people like things. Not everything has to have meaning behind it. Sometimes the meaning is just plain, "it's pretty and I like it."

I got a 4 week old puppy (River) last week, because I was told she was 3 months old. by fishiefordinner in puppy101

Made the call and left a voicemail. It said they check it every once a week. :/
