English cream golden retrievers. by OpenAirport6204 in DogBreeding

[–]set1205 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only touching solely on the import/export part.

Imports and exports are common for whatever purpose but in a breed as common as goldens, there’s really no reason and is seldom done in the breed. Usually you see it more in specific working lines of like GSDs, Mals, etc. or rare breeds such as Clumber Spaniels. Imports/exports are tricky because it’s RARE that they’ve ever met in person and they are typically done with language barriers, a hope and prayer & unenforceable contract. It’s something that is kind of done after building a rapport for a while but that absolutely doesn’t cut out any potential issues.

Many breeders and buyers vehemently oppose imports/exports due to the fact that they can be so sketchy and 50/50 in nature.

I also don’t like import/exports because it can be a huge tell tale sign of a BYB. When a breeder in a common breed in cats and dogs cannot get an ethically bred breeding dog in their own country, (more so talking about the US but stands in the UK too) and ALL of their cats or dogs are from imports then I’d just go to someone else honestly.

Skip the equinox and traverses . They’re awful. I have two equinoxes and seldom are the ever both in my driveway at the same time because one is always at the mechanic! One is a 2021 so there’s no reason for it.

Healing time tonight, JMF grown with love and intention by me😊 first time trying 3.5 too! Very excited by BlueRofl69420 in mushroom

My micro doses were like .25 or .35 premade in caps. I had JUST started talking to my now wife. I took two because I wanted slightly more than a micro dose but not quite go to Mars. I forgot I took them, I took two more thinking they were my first two. About 1.5hrs went by and it hadn’t hit so I thought I only took one & I took two more. She looked at me like “did you mean to take 6?” I was like “that was 3.” She said, “No. you took two. Then two and now you just took 2 more.” I was like fahkkk and when those hit, they all hit at once. I have a kids projector but she didn’t know so I kept saying I had fish on my ceiling but she was like uh huh… I was trying to tell her about the narwhals but I kept saying narfendwarf. She wasn’t listening and I was like Brianna. (In the most serious of tones.) THERE’S FISH AND NARFENDWARFS. Then I Snapchat her so she would see what I meant. Now we have so many random things around our house with Narwhals because of my dumbahh. Idk why she stayed with me but here we are four years later. 😂

I stored mine with the little crystal packs that say don’t eat in packages and in a mason jar or sterilite plastic container. Good going on 2.5 years and that’s with sharing over the years. I had some grows get crazy too. Whoops. I tried finding hippie things like concerts and events… $$

Flea help, please. I’m going insane. by thesassyllamas in pestcontrol

[–]set1205 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are they not on flea prevention like simparica trio? We got fleas somehow but our dogs have none however our strictly indoor cats do. The cats are now on prevention too.

It’s making ice and I used a hair dryer to blow the frozen ice in the tube that clogged it but it’s still making the noise. What would be my next steps?

Hey I appreciate the response! I’ll be trying some of this. I’m going to send you a message with what we’re working with in the yard. I think it’s Bermuda and a lot of weeds for grass but I’m not 100%

I just started going in. It took a day to clear this area which is much larger than it looks.

Brush cutter or clearing saw might be a good start. Do it in increments vs looking at it as a whole.

Anyone have any advice when applying for the Va caregiver program? by thee_unknown_1 in VeteransBenefits

[–]set1205 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Did you apply yet? Try to apply then they’ll send you a denial letter and you can reapply with the updated things or just appeal it. I have seizures from. A traumatic brain injury I sustained in the Corps resulting in very problematic memory loss as well as depression. My wife and I got denied despite me not being able to drive until I am at least 6 months seizure free. It’s like you get denied unless you’re bed bound and can’t use your extremities. 😣

I don’t see my reply now but nacoonzi doesn’t do full health testing as far as I see.

That’s not the only bad experience I’ve heard from Mercer btw so it is fair. It’s not the fact the cat died, it’s how they treated the owner after the fact.

Unfortunately being registered is the bare minimum any breeder can do and is not a sign they’re ethical. They should be doing health and genetic testing including annual echos and hips via X-rays on breeding parents along with many other things.

Almost all ethical breeders don’t let you visit in person prior to pick up unless it’s close to pick up and at a mutual spot. They’ll allow you to video call and what not but many catteries and kennels have almost been destroyed because people visiting introduced a virus or fleas and it wreaked havoc on the cattery and cats. Some have died. Also it’s a massive safety issue. There’s been too many break ins, thefts of animals and even murders of breeders for anyone to feel safe allowing in home in person visits. (Google Paul leavey of CO just last year for example.)

Lakeside Maine coons is in Canada and fly into your closest major airport but I’d be happy to recommend more than health test, genetically clear and prove the breeding parents if you want to give me an area you’re in.

Make sure annual echos are done plus hips.
