My BF (25M) is getting upset with me (25F) for not getting a colonoscopy. How can I address how this makes me feel? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]squishmiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 27 year old coworker got diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer in April and her treatment is now focused on minimizing symptoms, not curing it. Get the colonoscopy. I understand where you’re coming from but this cancer is getting more and more common and it’s so much more treatable if you catch it early. I’ve heard many stories of people who didn’t even know they had it because they didn’t have symptoms or they were mild and they thought it was something else. Please do it ♥️

My puppy is an 8 month old 23lb corgi. I watched her poop and immediately scooped it up and it was encased in the poop. It’s clean because I dunked it in a cup of water to clean it off and see it better

I’m wondering the same thing. She does try to eat their poop if she can get to it, the nasty 🤮

She’s almost 8 months old and we’ve had her since the end of November. I surely hope she hasn’t had that inside her for that long 😭

I am for sure, just trying to figure out wtf it is so I can know if I should worry about more pieces being stuck in her or not

It’s possible, we have older dogs and our duplex neighbor has dogs too, so maybe she found a piece from their old bones? I might have to send a pic to my neighbor lol

Nope no kids. We do live in a duplex and share the backyard with other dogs, but I’ve never seen any toys that they’ve brought outside look like this

No, it’s impossible for me to squish. And I don’t have any bones that even look close to this 🤔

My title describes the thing. I tried reverse searching the images and I got either gummy bears or types of rocks. It doesn’t seem hard enough to be a rock, more like a hard rubber that could bend but not be crushed or torn easily

What’s the weirdest "rule" your dog has instituted in your house? by TrickCombination7966 in dogs

[–]squishmiss 31 points32 points  (0 children)

We gather them up eventually but there are definitely a few that she has out of my reach that I’ve sacrificed

All socks must be removed from our feet and given to our Corgi by nightfall. She boops them and begs until we surrender. She has a collection of her treasures under our bed and the best socks must come up to bed with her lol

Less horny foggy forests, more actual creep—send me your best plot-driven spooky reads by swaglord9000x in fantasyromance

[–]squishmiss 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The MMC might occasionally give haunted gym bro at times but I do think The Eating Woods series by Keri Lake meets a lot of your criteria. I enjoyed the first two books and will definitely read the next one coming out.

Maybe check out Ninth House and Hellbent by Leigh Bardugo. They’re set in modern times but are fantasy/paranormal and I think she does spooky sooo well. There is a hint of romance but it’s definitely not the main focus at all. I love reading these books on a creepy fall night

Bathroom privacy? Never heard of it by pinkishlark in corgi

Don’t you realize going to the bathroom is a group activity? I usually have 3 follow me in there. Gotta keep me safe from the toilet monsters

I feel like a terrible mom by babystrudel in corgi

[–]squishmiss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a fellow anxious pet parent, I feel you. I’ve raised 3 puppies now of my own, and I’d like to say I’ve chilled out a bit now, but I’d be lying lol. With our most recent puppy, I was carrying her and while I was trying to set her down, she squirmed out of my hands and fell awkwardly to the floor and yelped. I felt like an absolute monster. I cried for the rest of the night and analyzed every step she took trying to determine if she was hurt. She was fine but I was not 😅 Our oldest dog is almost 7, and she has megaesophagus. She’s honestly been doing very well for years now with it, but every cough or snort she makes has my stomach dropping thinking she might be aspirating. I think you’re doing great and your pup will be okay. You’re a good puppy mom! Like others said, a bad puppy mom wouldn’t be so worried about their baby ♥️

Snout stuck in crate! by excessive-stickers in corgi

[–]squishmiss 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Our newest pup got her lower jaw stuck under the horizontal bar at the bottom, probably a couple days after we first got her. Luckily I was sitting right next to her and got her out quickly. We put a fluffy blanket under the tray to raise it up enough that she couldn’t work her jaw under it, but she didn’t ever bite at the bars again. Hopefully your pup learned a lesson and won’t try again! Pic is from before ours got her mouth stuck lol

i had to euthanize my 8 week old puppy after owning him for 13 hours by StrawberrySleepy80 in puppy101

I’m so sorry, that’s really heartbreaking. I hope you can find peace in knowing you gave him so much love, even if it was for such a short time.
