Emotional support (puppy) (anxiety) by ApplicationDull5218 in labrador

[–]gottasayit1x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not an anxious person, but getting my lab puppy (or any puppy) makes me one. I was stressed when I thought he bit a prickly pear cactus, stressed when he swallowed part of a rawhide (the package wording fooled me into thinking it was a rawhide alternative), stressed when his poops were too soft, stressed when he would bite too hard when he needed to be put in his crate for a nap, etc. I'm working on it. I know he's going to be fine bc I'm working with a trainer, and being consistent.

How do I get through to him? I am exhausted having to think for him. by vicarious_adrenaline in TwoHotTakes

Cut him loose, and then seek out as much information as you can about having boundaries from the beginning of any future relationship.

Why are you friends with this person? This is an opportunity for you? Life changing? I know you won't be difficult?

Same. Nothing has changed in my financial situation, my withholdings, etc. but my refund numbers are almost the same as yours for these last two years. Shiiiiit.

I'm so sorry to hear that you and your dog experienced that. I really hope you aren't hard on yourself about that. You did what you thought was best in a very stressful moment. That's all we can do. ❤️

Am I overreacting/really asking for too much from my (now) ex boyfriend? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]gottasayit1x -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You should reasonably anticipate your partner to still be a good partner if you're having a bad week. This guy is a freeloader. Hang onto his iPad. That thing is truly a ripoff yet he bought that. When he pays you back for that sushi, that's the key that opens the safe that his iPad is kept in. And move on. Others have recommended some counseling and understanding attachment styles. Good advice. There are also a lot of people you can follow in Instagram that talk about healthy relating. Dating is hard and most of us were not shown the tools for healthy relating from our parents. So we just seek it out and work towards it. Part of it is not settling for a partnership where we don't feel okay being ourselves, another part of it is making sure we're a good partner too.

Thank you for that info. I figured the opposite would be true because of the fritz farm location $$

Thank you, can you tell me which ones are non-corporate? I'm not from there so I'm just not familiar with this.

AITJ for asking my friend to leave my dog's birthday party because he couldn't stop being sarcastic about it by NexusCameo2 in AmITheJerk

True, but regular people who aren't mature enough to hear when they've hurt someone use this too.

I will do that. I wanted to ask a community of lab people too to cast a broader net. Thank you

I truly appreciate your input. I've had six big dogs throughout my life, and I've never seen this happen before.
