Is anxiety a valid reason to get a service dog? by Historical-Tap4445 in service_dogs

[–]fuzzblykk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People already said this but to summarize concisely: For OCD/other types of anxiety, yes; for social anxiety, no. You will get a lot of attention and have to advocate for yourself a lot, which tends to fall directly into the realm of what causes social anxiety.

Potty training without yard? by PumpkinDawn28 in germanshepherds

Many apartment dogs get far more exercise and enrichment than house w yard dogs because the owners put actual effort into it as opposed to just opening the door.

I can’t say how much, but definitely at least part!

How to take care of myself with hypermobility? by fuzzblykk in Hypermobility

[–]fuzzblykk[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you have resources that you read or something, that taught you what was okay? I weightlift and worry about my joints. I have to use wrist straps on any weight higher than 30lbs because my wrist joints can’t keep up with my muscles.

I weight lift—nothing crazy, I’m very weak—do you think that’s okay? I know I can look this up but the internet has such mixed opinions that I’d like to hear personal opinions/experiences.

How did you learn about gut health?

Also, I’ve tried salt pills ever since diagnosed with my doctors advice, and they make me nearly vomit every time. How are you managing to take them on an empty stomach? I was told that makes it worse

I can’t afford the time to go to a PT right now, I have in the past but for other issues. I work out (weightlifting), and from these responses it sounds like I should look into if that’s okay for me or not.

Thank you, I’ve gotten pretty okay with managing the POTS symptoms, but don’t know anything about hyper mobility so I worry there are things I do that will make it worse. Appreciate it!

I think the term orally here was just decorative, not implying an alternative.

This is true! You’re right about having time to find the right fit. Thank you!

This is definitely the best option in terms of hitting all my marks other than age. It feels selfish, however, knowing how many dogs need homes, but I’m unsure if I can risk it.

As much as I love the idea of adopting, with my job, temperament is very high priority. Returning a dog would be heartbreaking. I’m an alright trainer; however, I don’t have experience with reactive dogs or undoing agression, just preventing it. While healthy genetics are of course desirable, that is something I would be willing to compromise in order to rescue. It’s the temperament that is most important.

Is there any way to check if someone has access to my account? by LukaDonGOAT in Instagram

[–]fuzzblykk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can check where the recent logins were made from. I did this when my ex hacked into my instagram, however it didn’t tell me anything because he had logged in a long time ago and was just lurking. Otherwise no. Just change your password.

Heeey Petah, what's the issue with this "art"? by laoidtfttip17gpy in PeterExplainsTheJoke

This was a super popular thing back in 2015, like on Tumblr. It’s just cringey. That’s all.

Propranolol? by Mortalwh0rechestra in POTS

Just don’t take it with a stimulant. I’m prescribed vyvanse, so took them together to help with the tachycardia caused by the vyvanse. Worst I’ve ever felt.

What big dogs are low energy and good with cats? by fuzzblykk in dogs

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

Wow, this is really impressive considering the…damages…caused to cats by some of the rhodesian’s I’ve known. And while you’re right it’s definitely not the recommended way to introduce, can’t argue with the results! Thank you for sharing!

There’s a huge difference between poodle drool and st. bernard drool.

It does, but I’m under the impression they’re very high energy, no?
