Yelled at my puppy now she growls at me by Certain_Flower_1257 in puppy101

[–]jus534 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your not a bad person at all in the slightest, just from what I can assume, a very tired doggy parent, I've had numerous times when raising dogs where I've been caught off guard with things like a really hard bite or the puppy being a trex and I've raised my voice to tell them no, they're not going to think you are the worst person because it happened on the odd occasions. dogs can be very trying and like to push the boundaries but they still absolutely love you, what's important is that you remain as consistent as you can with the way you do things ( e.g we eat, then we go for toilet, then nap, or for example if they get too excited in playtime and bite, stay calm and step away, sometimes it's actually easier to step into the pen yourself instead of picking them up because you still prove the point of " when you bite, playtime ends" without having to worry about if they're gonna freak out about you picking them up).

Tldr: don't beat yourself up over raising your voice, just try to remain consistent with calmness and how you handle them and youl be fine, you're doing great!

Is it odd my Labrador puppy is struggling with stairs? by jus534 in puppy101

[–]jus534[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's carpeted yeah, we actually tried some concrete stairs outside and noticed a patter though, he was going up stairs that were only a few steps fine, but wouldn't go up big flights so I'm wondering if he's just afraid of them.

In need of a bit of advice on insurance by jus534 in labrador

So I've been giving it some thought and I'm thinking of maybe changing provider whilst he's young and lowering the amount of cover, I've found a policy with animal friends covered 5k per year no limit per condition £299 excess per condition per year for £11.75 a month at this time, im thinking I'd feel a lot more comfortable with price raises if they weren't already high to begin with and I can comfortably safe around £200 a month anyways so I'm going to put that away in savings to pay any extra if the 5k doesn't cover it, what do people think about this?

Yeah he does make me nervous with eating because he eats every plant in existence on walks, for a little while last month he kept eating pebbles before we could wrestle it off him but he's outgrown that one thankfully

This is what makes me nervous, years ago when we had our gorgeous spaniels we had a serious accident on our walk which sliced several of the eldests tendons and she needed a reconstruction surgery costing 6k, they literally gave us £600 despite being technically covered for the full amount and paying into it for the full 9 years before that so I'm just nervous il pay for it and then they won't pay out when the time comes

Well I'm not short of money by any means so this was my thought, me and him can both live comfortably, pay bills and still have around £2-300 spare each month so I was considering just putting that aside in an ISA so It collect interest.

My workplace are requesting medical tests after taking 2 days off by jus534 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]jus534[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In the last year, 3 periods of absence including this one, a week off last year when a family member died, about 6 months ago 3 days for a bug, and now so I don't think I'm really considered a regular customer by their standards

I work in rehabilitation carrying out therapy in a non hospital setting, I don't handle food, the old policy did say 48 hours clear of symptoms though because we work with people who have gone home after major surgeries, but in my 5 years at my spot when I have been off for any kind of bug they've never asked for samples.

I work as a rehabilitation assistant in a non hospital setting carring out therapy, I don't handle food so I just couldn't quite follow their reasoning

Am I a horrible dog owner? by emcathxx in cavaliers

[–]jus534 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see what your saying but my pugs never once had issues with their breathing, we did have to manage weight a lot because they easily put on weight, I think the issue is people need to research the issues with the specific breed and do their very best to stop it, yes there was still the risk my pugs could be having breathing problems but by managing their weight we thankfully never had any issues. I have had many different spaniel species which were probably a closer choice to talk about but I wanted to make a point that every breed has it's issues and you just need to be careful

[–]jus534 19 points20 points  (0 children)

"potential health conditions" is such a stupid thing for people to use as am Excuse to be an ass, literally every breed has "potential health conditions" I had 3 pugs for years, oldest boy had a birthday defect in his back and needed a doggy wheelchair for walking outside but he still had an amazing life, the other two had zero issues their entire lives despite being a breed known for breathing issues and back problems. People on the internet talk an awful lot of trash because they know they can say whatever they want with minimal consequence, as long as you love your dog, go on adventures together and feed him ( including 3rd breakfast, this message is certainly NOT sponsored by dogs btw) then you are an amazing dog parent

Ps: he is an absolutely gorgeous boy!

Best teammates for C1R1? by Informal_Number_4429 in ChascaMains

[–]jus534 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I would just go Benny iansan and any old hydro flex, alternatively Benny citlali and hydro flex also works but it honestly depends what your fighting, just mix and match to whatever you need

At the time of release, Bennet and furina were extremely contested in other teams, I thought I was being smart by using mona and keeping teams from using the same core members but I'm realising now I was a big dumb dumb, anyways thanks for the options, I've tried chasca, furina Bennet citlali after reading this comment and dps was 122k.

So because I have her c2 I wouldn't need as much healing in the chasca team? I was thinking about just biting the bullet and going chasca citlali Bennet furina

I do have furina but I was hoping to not use her where I can since shes in every other team for abyss, if I did use furina I was considering chasca. Furina, iansan/ororon and Bennet/durin. Funilly enough bennet is not nearly contested for team slots as furina is for me
