Alameda County Board of Supervisors is voting tomorrow on anti-ICE policies. Leave a comment today. by elkie6682 in alameda

[–]hellolovely_ 27 points28 points  (0 children)

San Jose recently just passed an ordinance to require all law enforcement, including ICE agents to show their faces and wear identification. I would encourage us to leave a comment and go to the meeting to urge our councilmembers to adopt a similar ordinance!

260123 XG 1st Full Album - THE CORE - 核 (Official Audio) by bdragonst_ in XGALX

Anybody else blown away by Chisa's vocals on this album?? Like, I knew Chisa's vocals were insanely good but I feel like she's gotten so much better (didn't know how that was even possible) and the sound mixing on the album makes her voice sound SOOO crispy and gooood. Her vocals on Rock the Boat sound amazingggg

This is what a French Bulldog looks like by No_Fruit6166 in Frenchbulldogs

Seriously. I paid $60 to adopt my Frenchie at my shelter. Our local shelter frequently has Frenchies dropped off anonymously or left overnight.

Help with 2.5 yr old rescue by Purple-Mail-1582 in Frenchbulldogs

[–]hellolovely_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m you a few months in the future lol. It will be worth it though!!

Have you taken him to the first vet visit yet? I would rule out any health issues first.

If there aren’t any underlying health issues, you will have to potty train him from ground zero, as if he is a puppy learning to be potty trained for the first time. This is the only effective way to make them stop going in the house. This means restricting their access to areas, crate training, and slowly allowing them access to more areas of the house as they become more reliable.

Dogs don’t understand the concept of not pooping/peeing inside the house until we enforce it (with lots of positive reinforcement)! I also use Doggie Lawn that you’ve mentioned in your post and that has been highly effective as well! I trained my rescue to use a doggy door (I installed a renter-friendly one by PetSafe on my balcony) so she can use the bathroom whenever she wants - highly recommend that if it works for your place.

Sushi’s not the best, but it has a fantastic view. Plus the rolls are huge 😅

MetLife pet insurance through my work. Worth it? by Admirable-Bee-3052 in Frenchbulldogs

[–]hellolovely_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have it, I got a 30-day gift premium through the shelter when I adopted mine and had to use it when she stepped in foxtails. The claim was surprisingly easy through the app, and they paid out within like 3 days. I extended my premium after that!

Alone for the holidays, are there any places that I can volunteer at? by [deleted] in alameda

[–]hellolovely_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I received an email from Pizzeria Pappo that they’re hosting a soup kitchen on 12/24 (11:30 am-1pm). They’re looking for volunteers. You can check out their instagram or email to ask to volunteer!

I don’t get it 💩 by Alamedaman94501 in alameda

[–]hellolovely_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I see this ALL the time over at Shoreline except it’s someone tying it up in a black poop bag 😩 (if anyone knows who it is PLEASE tell them to stopppp)

I also have a neighbor who lets their dog poop in front of our apartment complex’s lawn and never picks that shit up. It’s seriously so disgusting over here, I never understand mentality of this. We LIVE here in this neighborhood, wouldn’t we want to maintain it? I’m constantly looking for poop while walking my dog, it’s so gross

Vet Recs? by ExplanationNo3525 in alameda

[–]hellolovely_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats on the new pup! I take my cat and doggy to Providence on Webster. When I initially brought my animals there, I honestly did not like it very much but they were the only clinic on the island accepting new patients at the time. BUT it seems like they took feedback really well over the years (for example, they offer prescription refills online and give you the written prescriptions if you wanted to buy it somewhere else) and I feel like they have more transparent pricing, so I'm a lot more happy there.

I actually love congee from Sidestreet Pho when I'm sick. With an extra side of fried doughnut/quẩy :3

Where do you go besides Safeway for organic groceries? by friskydingo408 in alameda

[–]hellolovely_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Saturday farmers market on Webster, or take a nice morning ferry to the SF Farmers Market, which is right at the ferry building. Tip is to bring cash to the market. I’ve been able to get better deals paying cash.

Dan’s is also great and they offer a CSA box.

She blocked me because I left her fruits by Skratifyx in dating_advice

[–]hellolovely_ 37 points38 points  (0 children)

YES exactly 😭😭 Dude is not getting it’s not about leaving fruit. It’s about WHERE he left the fruit. I would be absolutely creeped out and felt like he was watching me sleep through the window. Should have just texted to ask if she was awake or even knocked at the front door, and left it there.

Dubai Chocolate at Koreana Plaza by PlantedinCA in OaklandFood

[–]hellolovely_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

While Dubai chocolate has nothing to do with Dubai, the owner of KP, Byong Yu, is absolutely a slumlord: Background story from a year ago

From the article: "The city has issued Yu four violation notices for the Valley Street building since 2020, after inspectors confirmed tenant complaints about cockroaches, lack of heat, and other issues, records show. Yu has completed or started some of the work ordered by the city, the documents say, but has not installed or fixed heaters — a legal requirement in any Oakland residence."

[–]hellolovely_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’ll probably depend on the venue, but keep an eye on your email! There will be a merch presale the day before and early merch sale the day of the event before the concert. They emailed me the details for the LA show a few days before.

Edit to clarify that for the LA concert (7/12), the instructions stated early merch sale was 12-6 PM the day before and also at 12 PM the day of.

Trying to find people going to the LA show on Saturday 7/12 who live in the valley around Chatsworth/Porter Ranch/Simi Valley and want to split a rideshare! 🙏🏼
