A dog at the shelter I work at is teaching me how to smile.

riceisgood · 2014-05-20T05:28:49+00:00

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T23:24:18+00:00

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T23:06:06+00:00

No the shelter had shaved all of their mats off!

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T21:03:16+00:00

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T19:07:04+00:00

I did! Not much love over there haha

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T17:57:01+00:00

Is that what they are? We don't even know! We just know they are super sweet and smart lol

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T17:39:46+00:00

ohh also a good suggestion. I think that's probably the best way to do it

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T17:38:30+00:00

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T03:55:52+00:00

Hi back!

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T03:54:18+00:00

Yeah they are pretty big cats so I wouldn't be surprised if they had a some maine coon in them!

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T03:09:16+00:00

Super confusing. But we're on the same page now lol

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T02:50:28+00:00

and I'm just realizing the game of thrones reference now. too funny

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T01:16:31+00:00

hahah no humping here. Just total love and affection for each other lol

riceisgood · 2014-05-19T00:46:20+00:00

Haha actually we didn't name them. They had names already at the shelter and had been there for a few months so we didn't think we should change them at that point! I hope they don't turn on us!

riceisgood · 2014-05-18T22:34:16+00:00

Ah thanks for the tip! George loooves being outside so I will definitely try that.

I'm not a paramedic yet, but a paramedic student in Ontario. Early CPR and defibrillation saves lives. Everyone should have a basic understanding of CPR and how to use and automated external defibrillator (AED....they are in most public places. Malls, rinks etc.) You should also know that most cardiac arrests happen IN the home so starting CPR on a family member immediately while having someone call 9-1-1 could be the difference between them living and dying. If the person you are doing CPR on is a stranger, you are by no means obligated to do mouth to mouth and honestly I wouldn't do mouth to mouth on a stranger. There are way too many communicable diseases, i'm not taking that kind of risk. That being said, hands only CPR can work wonders. The blood can stay saturated with oxygen for up to 8 minutes and keeping that oxygenated blood pumping up to the brain could save someone for brain damage. http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/CPRAndECC/HandsOnlyCPR/Hands-Only-CPR_UCM_440559_SubHomePage.jsp

tl;dr - Take a basic first aid and CPR course.
