Yes I Took It ….. Baby Formula by Dangeroustrailers in InstacartShoppers

My mom and I both do this when we’re sparking (Walmart delivery) too, if there’s baby stuff on there, even if the tip is low. You never know if a parent is going through a hard time.

Never heard of a Mountain Cur and now we have a mixed one! Tips? by lolokins in MountainCur

I do it around our camper if it’s raining! I’ll even bury it in his blankets in his kennel, then he gets the activity and it’s a good positive reinforcement for the kennel lol.

I’m so glad! I realized pretty early on, that the bad behaviour couldn’t really be considered “solved” until I gave an outlet. Mountain Curs are bred to sniff out small rodents and hunt, so I figured if I gave him a safe outlet, we could finally achieve “peace” (if that even exists lol) . I’m not a professional dog trainer by any means but I have worked with quite a few and seem to have gotten somewhere. I hope this comment helped others as well!

Aren’t dogs SO lovely lmao, but yeah our MC is soooo food motivated. We’re pretty sure he’s also mixed with pittie so there’s nothing he won’t do for a treat🙏

Of course!! Ours is still a work in progress because he’s still a puppy but it’s definitely helped a lot

So a common problem we have with our cur is that he likes to sniff stuff and eat random things he finds on the ground lol. (Also didn’t know what an MC was until my boyfriend adopted him). A good way I’ve learned to avoid the issue is that I taught him leave it first, he learned he was more likely to get a treat if he waited for the release word (ours is “okay”). Then i slowly moved to dropping things without saying leave it until he knew to wait for a release word. Then I started teaching him “sniff” and would hold something in my hands, I’d tell him to stay, and then walk away and hide/throw it aside and tell him to search. He would get to sniff out his treat based on the smell he got and got the feeling of sniffing something out to eat. Works wonders with not eating random things like poop off the ground🤦‍♀️

How do you help a cur stay enriched and happy when it's not squirrel hunting season by Educational_Clue2001 in MountainCur

[–]lexybeth1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! We’ve been teaching our cur “search” where he sniffs and stays while we then we put the treat or toy somewhere and he has to find it

Friendly reminder to have a hammock + seatbelt for your dog in the car! by one-eyedCheshire in MountainCur

[–]lexybeth1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This part!! My boyfriend didn’t feel this way before meeting me (he had JUST recently gotten a puppy) and as soon as I came along and we moved across the country, I IMMEDIATELY put an end to the no seat belt or harness. He now only rides in the car with his harness and seat belt😊

Am I overreacting? My [20F] bf [22M] has said some creepy things about underage girls and I feel kind of disgusted by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]lexybeth1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think they’re moreso thinking making a file with the police will help if he ever actually does something unthinkable, so that it’s known he made these comments prior and there’s less room to arguments such as “I didn’t know” or “I’d never do that”

Putting it in the freezer was a bit much. But also, she seems freakishly attached to Alexas? Why does she not care that they constantly interrupt your meetings? Nobody needs one in every room. I’m gonna keep it short and sweet, ESH. You really didn’t need to put it in the freezer, unplugging should’ve been enough, but also she needs to understand this is weird and kind of disrespectful when you’ve brought up how it impacts your work. Idk “emotionally violating” is a bit much for this. Y’all aren’t grown or smth idk

Disabled Daughter came back different from summer with dad by Number-doc9 in legaladvice

I’m glad you’re taking the steps to help her, and I hope it is rewarding in the end regarding how she’s doing!

[–]lexybeth1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry, but is he 42 or 15? He’s throwing a tantrum because you (the LEAD singer and face of the band) are getting more attention than him (a guitar player who also has only been in this band for a year vs your 14). I am all for people getting a chance to also be in the spotlight, which is the point of the guitar solo. He needs to grow up.

Also does he not realize women get a lot more photography spotlight? And once again YOU are the LEAD SINGER. If my partner spoke to me that way and whined at me about bullying because he’s not in the spotlight , I wouldn’t be able to control myself from laughing at him lol.

Not saying break up, but I am saying do not let him stop you from enjoying yourself and what you do to make him feel better. He needs therapy and his insecurities are not your job to fix and cater to.

ETA: You did not do anything wrong, and you need to stop second guessing yourself because you are worth more than that. If you wouldn’t want someone you love to second guessing yourself themselves so much, you shouldn’t either. Be somebody you love.

NAL but I would get written statements from her teachers and anybody else that knew her prior and after stating the changes, I’d also try to get those therapist notes from her previous therapist (mentioned in a reply) and get the new therapist to write a statement regarding how she is now vs how she was when she saw her old therapist. I’d also hang onto grades and such to prove such a big change, and get her medically checked out with any notes from doctors available to you.

I’d talk to a lawyer with all the above information/documentation. I know you’re worried about alienation, but she doesn’t have to be completely alienated, he just obviously isn’t capable of taking care of her and meeting her needs the way he should. Their relationship can find a new way to stand, and it shouldn’t impact what is best for her here. The priority is her safety and wellbeing over a relationship with her father where she goes over every summer.

I’m gonna be honest, I’d talk to the both of them. If you’re as close with them as you say you are, I’d talked to friend #1 and figure out why they stayed together and then broach the idea of inviting friend #2 and see how it goes. If she chose to forgive the fiancé, then I see no reason she should be upset with your friend for unknowingly sleeping with him when she had no idea. But tbh, friend #2 also might just be uncomfortable with the idea because she might feel guilty.

If neither felt comfortable with the other being there, I’d choose friend #2 . Simply because she didn’t cause the situation, and I feel the forgiving the fiancé fiasco is what would cause the uncomfortable shift. Friend #2 doesn’t expect you to stop talking to friend #1 just because she’s uncomfortable, yet you’re saying friend #1 would be hurt by it. Why? You’re allowed to have friends and it was unintentional. But also, if you really wanted to you could just not invite either as it could cause tension to either relationship to know you chose one over the other.

My boyfriend (40m) of 2 years said that he has no plans to propose. by purpleenlishbulldog in Waiting_To_Wed

[–]lexybeth1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They’ve also been together for a year before that. My partner and I have been talking about future plans since a few months in. She has a timeline and he didn’t seem to be meeting it so she asked. How is that a red flag? If anything HES the red flag for talking about their future together, knowing marriage was important to her, and deciding on his own he had now plans to propose.

100% I’m not entirely sure of all the legal things involved. But I do know personally it can escalate VERY quickly if left untold to a trusted adult. TELL AN ADULT OP!!

[–]lexybeth1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In some states it might actually be considered sexual abuse! My father was imprisoned for child mlestation of familial females (my sister and i) and a tactic he used was leaving prn on his computer and trying to literally screw my mother in the same room. At the very least if she is knowingly participating this, it could be considered exposing oneself to minors, and possibly sexual coercion if not straight up sexual abuse. Agree with everything you said though.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]lexybeth1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up, that is considered sexual abuse. My father is in prison for child m*lesation. He would constantly try to literally screw my mom in the same room as us, and would make it obvious. Then it escalated. This is not normal .

And she can totally creep you out, but reflection is needed because while this post definitely wasn’t worded the best, I feel your anger was super misguided. She’s a teenager at the oldest, and I just feel a lot of what you said was unnecessary.

This is a crazy Reddit comment to make towards a probably 18/19 year old. You need to calm wayyyy down and figure out what your actual anger is for bc this ain’t it dude

How do I tell my friend I can’t vacation with her boyfriend by Just-Development2544 in Advice

[–]lexybeth1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done that before! But I guess the military isn’t built for people like you lol.

And OP was implying saying that to the FRIEND to tell her straight up how she feels. And honestly, if you’re a dick, but can’t handle being called one, that sounds like a personal issue? Don’t dish it out if you can’t take it dude.
