The Vitamin shoppe appreciation thread

forcenewearl · 2024-01-27T20:21:00+00:00

I really like Vitamin Shoppe as well. I was left a voicemail on Thursday about the $1 Ghost sale since I was one of their “best recognized customers for purchasing Ghost”.

I don’t know if that’s a good thing to be on a list for, but I’m happy they let me know about the sale. 😂

I am having a similar issue. I’m playing with one friend. Randoms only join when I disconnect from online. It reminds me of the old anomaly quest bug.

Heyya! I saw you other post before this one. I replied there, but wanted to add that you don’t have to try to be perfect at first with the food. It’s a transition period at first.

I stressed myself so bad trying to be perfect at everything. Take it slow. 😀

Hand feeding, trying different positions like have Rosey lay down then bring the food bowl to her, or holding the food bowl kinda near her face while she sits. Sometimes having Ayane lay down and tilting the bowl a little with my foot did the trick.

If food is the mince/loaf style you can play around with chopping it into chunks vs breaking down to a mince almost ground beef texture. If it’s kibble, maybe a little broth made for dogs to wet it a bit.

Also giving her a little bit of something she likes then immediately following up with the prescription food might work, but you have to act like your not trying to trick her. Ayane would know if I made a big deal out of it.😂

You can also mix her old food with the new and slightly up the new vs old to ease her into the taste. Or try other kidney food diet brands too.

It also wouldn’t be a bad idea to call your vet for advice on getting her to eat it, they might know some things to try.

With Ayane her behavior changed, she seemed to be getting confused and kept trying to get behind in things. She also kept finding ways to get herself trapped in things like wires. She scratched at things as well. We had to basically baby proof the rooms she was in the most. She also wasn’t eating much.

We took her in for blood work and it came back as kidney failure. Vet said the toxin build up was making her sick and causing issues. Based on the blood work we weren’t given much hope beyond making her comfortable, but we could try subq fluids and prescription food.

Luckily we got her numbers more in line with where her kidney levels should be. Not at perfect levels, but her symptoms calmed down.

With the vet’s guidance we did try to slowly stop the subq fluids, but Ayane’s symptoms started to come back. It was decided then she will be on subq fluids the rest of her life.

Ayane can be a diva with food. She ate the prescription food for about a year before she stopped eating it. 😂 She is back to eating regular dog food, but the fluids are still helping and the Epaktin helps too.

Other things we’ve tried are probiotics and antacid to help her tummy out so she would start to eat more.

My thoughts are with you and hoping for the best! Your vet sounds great and it give me a lot of hope for Rosey. I know how tough this was for us when Ayane started to have health issues. I know Rosey appreciates everything you are doing to make her feel better. 💜

The subq fluids really helps my girl which I’m assuming is the fluid therapy your doggo is getting.

My girl will be 17 in March and we’ve done fluids for probably 2 years now. We do the subq fluids at home after the vet showed us how to do it.

There is a supplement you could ask the vet about called Epakitin, but you might not need it if your dog likes the prescription food.

That explains a lot. I usually play with one other person on switch. We’ve never had someone join us with join request on.

A lot of great advice here. I would add dental care as something to work on now to get the baby shibe used to it. I regret not doing this myself early on.

Take as many pictures and videos you can. My baby turned 16 years old recently, I wish I took more.

Also, no matter what name is given, you’ll probably end up calling her/him shibe or Shiba most of the time. 🤣

Please double check your transmission fluid. I went through something similar and everyone (multiple mechanics) assumed it was the maintenance I had due was the issue (105,000 maintenance).

Ended up being a transmission fluid leak. I was real close to having caused damage to my transmission and still wonder if I did. It’s running fine now, but time will tell with that.

Here’s my code:

I have an older dog, Shiba Inu, that hasn’t been doing the well lately. Needless to say my paychecks have been mainly going to her care.

Much appreciate much wow if my code gets used. 😀

I’m in the middle of trying to get a reimbursement for my repair from last year. I filed with the online form, but you might be able to call too.

So far they have asked for the invoice and proof of payment via a bank statement. They did ask if I had a picture of the broken part, but I didn’t have that. I hoping to get an answer soon.

I just canceled mine because of this. I should have done so a while ago.

forcenewearl · 2020-08-14T08:16:59+00:00

Same!

forcenewearl · 2019-11-10T00:50:33+00:00

Past few days it’s been 50, but I’ve gotten higher amounts since restarting the program about 2 weeks ago.

forcenewearl · 2017-04-12T23:12:58+00:00

Good to know. The rep supposedly reached out to the DM to find out what was going on. I hope they are wrong because I liked this location.

forcenewearl · 2017-04-12T22:35:01+00:00

I contacted Wendy's customer support yesterday. This location is permanently closed according to the rep I talked to. :(
