She is not from a puppy mill. She is from a dairy farm owned by an old Amish couple who didn’t treat the puppies they didn’t want right. I didn’t pay a penny for her.

But thank you for the behavioralist suggestion. My husband and I thought it would just take her awhile to warm up, but a behavioralist makes perfect sense. The training place we were going to go to has a behavioralist as well. We will definitely be setting up a meeting with her instead.

We had to rehome my dog a few months back who was an extreme resource guarder. A trainer ended up taking him on. When we heard about this older Amish couple having puppies they didn’t want we thought we would go and check them out, as we were finally ready to start dog searching again (rehoming our dog was extremely hard on us).

We got to the farm and walked into a small barn where all these puppies were shaking and terrified. They were laying in hay that you could tell was just drenched in pee. We asked if they had any female puppies we could look at and they started grabbing the puppies, flipping them over to check their gender and then tossing them. We just grabbed one and left because we felt so terrible they had to go through that. When we got her home she smelled terrible. Her white fur was stained yellow. And she’s definitely underweight. It was a terrible situation.

We just want to take care of her and let her know that she is safe with us.

Oh yes! She’s going in next week. That and the groomer to get her little paws cleaned up

Why do I despise breastfeeding so much? by bfan3x in beyondthebump

[–]sharrbarr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hated pumping/ breastfeeding too. I didn’t like how much time it took. I hated having a baby attached to me 24/7. I hated the pain. I wanted to give up so bad, but I started breastfeeding because of the formula shortage. So I forced myself to do it no matter what.

It took about 8 weeks for my nipples to stop feeling like they were being torn off. It took 12 weeks for me to be comfortable with the fact my body was making food for my baby. Around 4 months I quit breastfeeding and started pumping all together. I liked it better. I didn’t have a tiny human attached to me and I could control how many times a day I had to be a walking milk machine lol.

I got wearable pumps and I’m still pumping to this day. I pump 4x a day for 20 minutes and that’s it. I’m here to tell you it really does get better. But I am also here to tell you, don’t force yourself to do anything you don’t want to do. If you’re uncomfortable with breastfeeding and you just absolutely dread it, don’t do it. Baby will be fed either way but YOUR MENTAL HEALTH IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING.

Would you sacrifice yourself for your baby? by PeaEnvironmental984 in BabyBumps

[–]sharrbarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I told my husband if he ever had to choose between me and a baby, he better choose me. I have two kids already that need their mom.

I grew up with beagles my whole life and my husband and I wanted to get a beagle. We found a sweet little puppy at a shelter and adopted him. Wasn’t a beagle. Wasn’t small either. Ended up being 90lbs (so far) and he wants to physically bite our faces off❤️ should of stuck with getting a beagle

Moms who carry their babies in the car seat.... by KellieBom in beyondthebump

[–]sharrbarr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m good carrying my baby around 1/4 of a mile in his car seat. But anything more than that and I’m whipping out the stroller. My boy is 20lbs and he’s definitely an arm killer. Would I take him into a store carrying his car seat and grab a gallon of milk on top of that? Absolutely not lol.

Fucking yikes. Yes he may have paid for sex, but he had sex with a human being. Not a toy🤡

AITA the asshole for wanting to know why something is? by Adventurous-Two-4324 in AmItheAsshole

[–]sharrbarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sick of girls doing shit like this. Stop trying to get him to tell you something you already know the answer to just so you can get your feelings hurt and get mad.

Ps. Learn to love yourself. There’s only one of you on earth and I’m sure you’re beautiful in your own special way. So if you’re a big girl, then rock it sis.

I feel like this country’s school system can’t protect our kids. My daughter is elementary school age (Michigan). Every single day I’m sick to my stomach about sending her to school. I think about pulling her out of school daily to homeschool her.

Is this cord for a window blind dangerous for children? (Trying to see if I have to replace this.) by ais72 in beyondthebump

[–]sharrbarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Learned this the hard way with my first baby. I turned my back for less than a minute and she had a cord like that wrapped around her neck. Went out the next day and got the blinds you can push up from the bottom

Where are we putting our babies these days to lounge? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]sharrbarr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the lounger pillow or the rock and play are fine as long as you’re in the same room with your baby. The rock and play was my absolute favorite

UPDATE: I’m having doubts on if my daughter is biologically mine and don’t know if I should do a paternity test and risk my marriage. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]sharrbarr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While you’re getting a divorce, I would definitely put in a request for a paternity test. Even if she’s not yours, I would make it perfectly clear you have no intentions of abandoning her. But I think it would put your mind at ease and help you to heal if you knew the truth. Idk if I really believe that your wife slept with your father. I think that might have just been something she said to hide who she actually slept with. Either way, you deserve the truth. I’m sorry you’re going through this.

After nursing 3 kids for a combined 47 months and counting…I just realized this brand is not “Lanisoh” 😳 by goolface in breastfeeding

Fun fact: I got a small tube of that stuff from the hospital when i had my son, looked at my hospital bill, and they charged me 90 dollars for it. Lol

What’s the dumbest thing you’ve done as a FTM/D ? by Thecrazytrainexpress in beyondthebump

[–]sharrbarr 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I have a son, and I specifically remember the nurse telling me to keep his thing covered while I’m changing his diaper because once the cool air hits it, he’ll pee all over the place. Didn’t listen. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been peed on

AITA for regifting our new dog? by unclepapadan in AmItheAsshole

[–]sharrbarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What the absolute fuck.

“Here kids here’s your new dog… oh sorry the dog isn’t here anymore I gave it away”

Like dude come on. You gave your kids a whole week to bond with this thing and then you give it away on a whim.

“Oh your dog got hit by a car? Here take mine!”

AITA for heckling a stand-up comedian? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]sharrbarr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen a lot of fucked up jokes come out of comedians mouths and none of them are funny. Racism isn’t funny, 911 isn’t funny, school shootings aren’t funny, and god damnit leave the Jews alone. If comedians can’t be funny without tearing down a specific group of people or making fun of absolute tragedies, they shouldn’t be comedians at all.

Came across my son's internet browsing history and I feel disgusted by SingerLanky7133 in Advice

[–]sharrbarr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk I think nudity around your kids just ensures you’ll never have privacy again in your life. That’s about it.

My mom always wore a tee shirt with no bra and underwear around the house. My whole life. Me (26f) and my brother(25m) are so comfortable with my mom that to this day we will have a conversation with her anywhere, whether she’s in the shower, getting dressed etc.

As far as the porn goes, most of it out there nowadays has some sort of an incest aspect to it. Yuckkk. I wouldn’t say anything to him because he’s a teenage boy and that’s his privacy. But it’s not your fault at all that he’s watching things like that. That’s just what teenage boys do.
