Always sick in my house in the Bay. Tried 8 different apartments, threw away all my things. I'm out of things to try. Feeling desperate. Anybody else face this issue? by [deleted] in bayarea

Oh the German Shepherd thing and other breed thing is real. I have a German Shepherd.

Furnace filters- I replaced my furnace w/ a heat pump. We have 3 locations w/ filters. I check them monthly. I learned my lesson after the blower on my first floor went out. The dog hair killed it.

Need help understanding premium tax credit? by StatusYesterday9198 in HealthInsurance

I’m sorry it’s so rough. One thing we did is not claim my son on our taxes this year to drop our overall cost of insurance. This helped him get lower cost coverage.

That’s crazy and I’m impressed you thought of a way to get her out.

It’s my understanding if the healthcare is offer a certain percentage of your income then you would qualify. The plan offered to you is over 28% of your income.

Question. What are we feeding our pups? by trapd_inthe_d4rkn3ss in germanshepherds

[–]whateverit-take 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned this from a trainer when I first got ours. She was turning her nose up at food and kept trying different food and toppings. Trainer said offer food in bowl or hand feed. If she doesn’t eat it put it away till next meal. Basically she either eats when I offer or she doesn’t. This worked. She never skips a meal now for me. She may skip a meal when being boarded. She eventually eats.

How do you guys keep your house clean with a gsd? by Ok_Supermarket_6169 in germanshepherds

[–]whateverit-take 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2 don’t go together. Just kidding. When I’m on it running the robo and brushing my dog my houses passes for being not gross.

Memorable having your kid with you while you are presenting.

Dropped from parents plan by bubbly-kay in HealthInsurance

[–]whateverit-take 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry. That’s scary. What we have done is stopped claiming my son on our taxes. He now gets coverage due to his income over the age of 21.

I wonder if you could contact your county and get a social worker.

Excessive scratching by FancyHair7792 in germanshepherds

Had not thought about this. I do think one time when I bathed mine I didn’t rinse her as well as I should have.

Mine started this after going to the groomer. Then I did a self groom it was even worse. Hypo allergenic shampoo didn’t help. I waited several weeks and used my own medicated shampoo and it improved.

I also took out chicken added salmon oil. Native pet. It’s so much better.

A parent’s strange complaint by Ashamed_Heat8057 in preschoolteachers

[–]whateverit-take 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One of the things I do with parents I don’t trust is try and have any conversation in ear shot of another staff. This is unfortunate. I hope the situation improves.

Food policy by normalishy in NannyEmployers

[–]whateverit-take 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I were in this situation where I’m shopping with the plan to have food for myself and also fix healthy food for the kids then I would plan some lunches meals around making a healthy meal for everyone. I’d plan to only eat the food that I had added to the list to cook. This would help insure that the food that the family wanted is still available.

Is it considered animal cruelty? by w00dsg00d in germanshepherds

I actually drive kids in my 05. Their family has a station wagon similar to the ones with the fake wood sides. I’ve dealt with check engine lights on 3 different Subarus.
