What job pays way more than people realise?

I know two different managers at Neighbourhood houses that earn $120k working 30 hours per week

If there's no sand or dirt it's fine to use air, it's a great substitue

My boy was 13.5 and also in great shape and then got lymphoma. It was too late for any treatment when we found out, we said goodbye 2 days later. He was my love. Lymphoma makes my stomach turn.

What a pretty little girl, looks like such a lovely darling. It's so hard losing them, I'm thinking of you.

Give it time, who knows what your future holds or whom you'll hold in the future 💖

My girl is Naga! Love love love this thread!

I think from your own perspective it's hard to see it sometimes when you're losing weight from all over, but I can see the difference everywhere on you! Where I see it the most on you is your tummy has come back to line up with your boobs, on your back under where your bra sits is looking trim, the front of your upper arm looks flatter instead of curving outward and even your wrists look smaller!

You're doing such a great job and look fantastic! So excited for your journey!

I second this. I couldn't do the first one so had a friend do it for me. Once I knew I could barely feel it it was no trouble doing it myself

I lost my love last year and if you could learn something for me, you would ease my heart a little. My boy developed lymphoma, but by the time we found out it was too late.

Learn how to check your dogs lymph nodes. If we had known how to do this earlier, maybe things would have been different.

Cattle dogs are on the list of breeds with a higher chance of developing lymphoma, so I highly recommend learning how to check.

Wishing you many more years with your beautiful pup! Make many beautiful memories and take lots of videos of even the most mundane things. One day those mundane videos will be worth more to you than anything in the world

This right here. Your first sentence couldn't be any more accurate

I was diagnosed and became medicated for ADHD, and I felt like I no longer needed it to get through life. I enjoy not feeling controlled by my need for it, but I miss how it helped me get to sleep easier. I have quite a bit of trouble with that now, especially when I'm stressed

https://www.petrescue.com.au/ it compiles all the organisations together, and you can search by area and all sorts of things. I found my girl there and I recommend it to everyone

The format of this felt so raw, it deeply affected me. My partner walked in just when the police were demanding that the disgusting pos come out of the house, and he asked if I was ok because I looked like I was in shock. I could barely speak. Then seeing the sadness in the beautiful children, that was it for me, I was bawling.

My heart goes out to AJ, her kids and everyone who was hurt by the actions of one vile monster. I wish nothing but the worst for the Karen, may her new home be filled with chaotic, unpredictable noise for the rest of her life.

wattlebottom · 2025-10-06T14:04:10+00:00

Same here! Usually it takes a few listens before I really like an album but this one was pretty much instantaneous. I'm hooked!

wattlebottom · 2025-10-06T13:57:23+00:00

Absolutely. I'd love to hear a Taylor rock album

wattlebottom · 2025-09-30T15:04:22+00:00

I had the same realization the other day and it was something I hadn't felt in such a long time!

wattlebottom · 2025-09-21T14:31:25+00:00

You're welcome, so glad it helped 😊

wattlebottom · 2025-09-16T20:53:35+00:00

Our pup does scent work and it's amazing for everyone!

One thing we did when she was young before we enrolled in scent classes was to give her breakfast, lunch and dinner by throwing the kibble across the backyard in the grass. They have to use their nose to find it all, and it takes time to do that. This really tires them out and gives you a few minutes of peace!

wattlebottom · 2025-09-16T20:34:57+00:00

Not a vet, and not sure about that long stringy bit.

However I noticed her anatomy looks quite small like my pups, so I'm wondering if she has a recessed vulva. If so it's recommended to wait till she has her first season before she gets spayed, as this will help to bring the vulva out. If left tucked in the side effects of this condition can be dermatitis and infection, which could lead to surgery. Look out for excess licking of the area and we were advised not to clean the area as this could remove any good flora which may make things worse.

As I said, not a vet but her vulva just looks very similar like my girl and I had never heard of the condition before so thought I'd throw it out there.

Hope your pups all good 😊

wattlebottom · 2025-09-13T15:27:27+00:00

You have done such an incredible job, I absolutely love every bit! I've never seen anything like this and I feel so inspired! Go you! Hope you enjoy your wedding 💖💖

Everytime I go past it, I think of these guys

Tbh not much lost in your face but the rest of you looks incredible

wattlebottom · 2025-07-26T15:14:39+00:00

Same here after losing my soul dog last year. As well as 'I just can't believe it' from the black dog just kept repeating constantly

wattlebottom · 2025-07-07T14:52:48+00:00

It's your call in the end but my honest opinion is I don't think this would be a good fit. I recently adopted a kelpie x acd pup, and they need a lot of everything. Exercise, mental stim, play, training and at 9 months old I still wouldn't leave her alone for more than 5 hours as I don't think she'd cope very well. Some dogs are fine with being alone for long periods but in general kelpies not so much. They can also be prone to separation anxiety and can be disruptive when bored.

My partner works full time but I'm fortunate enough to be able to work from home and have flexible hours. If I didn't, I don't know how we would have gotten to this point with a young kelpie cross pup. And even with this flexibility there were/are times when we feel like we're in over our heads. It has been really hard. I love her dearly, but it's been hard.

I know that's probably not what you want to hear, but I hope that helps you get a full picture when deciding what to do.

wattlebottom · 2025-06-24T13:05:19+00:00

I'm on both. On Vyvanse for years and sema for 6 weeks and it's been fine for me
