I just witnessed cruelty to a dog and I don't know what to do
Comments (20)Lukkirish, I choose not to abuse my dogs with shock collars and other painful devices and methods. Not sure what your vet's opinion has to do with this as vets are not behaviorists. Educate yourself on the subject. I have. Gee Cynthia, I was trying to be nice with my replies but since you prefer to get nasty, I'm happy to be equally as blunt. If you can't understand why a Vet would have an opinion about how a puppy or dog is cared for, you are more clueless than I originally thought. :c) I know several Vets and they aren't in the business they're in for the money. While making a decent living is always part of the equation, most Vets become Vets because of their love of animals. Most are involved with them some how outside of work too. It's also really obvious that you have very little knowledge about this topic as well. More specifically, you have no idea what the credentials of my Vet are nor the relationship I have with her so who are you to comment on it? FWIW, she owns several dogs and IS very involved with training and local rescue chapters; more than most. I appreciate that she is engaged with her patients and their families. Her advise on general care and behavior training for our puppy has been invaluable. We followed her advise and now have a super happy, well adjusted, fully trained and non destructive dog. Hmmm...it would seem that maybe you don't have a Vet who is involved in the WHOLE care and life quality of your dog. Is that why your expectations of a Vets knowledge outside of the clinic is so low? We are not abusers and go to great lengths (and expense) to ensure our girl is properly cared for. I take issue that you would imply otherwise. NEWS ALERT! Shock collars are not used with invisible fences. A collar that CAN shock is. There is a difference! Of course you're entitled to your opinion, it's just not an educated one. LOL...See MoreWeek: I don't even know anymore!!!
Comments (14)I love your strawberry wall! What did you use to hold up the pots? The round metal bits, what are they? I'd love to do something like this but I'm afraid the only place I could put them would be hit by the basketball all the time. Maybe I could tuck them in a corner by house. I have stuff I don't need because I'm too lazy to go through it. LOL Actually, I want to scan a bunch of the kids artwork and projects, and that is a time consuming rainy day task. I guess I could have worked on it throughout the winter. I got rid of a bunch of stuff when I did the kitchen, but I need to get the lights fixed in the basement to do anything down there. I need a nice sunny day for that, since I'll have to shut off the breaker and there's not much natural light. I'm kind of afraid to take down the fluorescent thing but it doesn't work anyway, and I might get lucky and find a junction box up there under all the fluorescent stuff. Texas, I'm glad you're making progress. OldBat, your greenhouse looks great. Your plants are really coming along. Schicksal, I have doilies my Gramma made. I don't really use them, but I won't throw them out....See MoreGift ideas: 13 yr old girl I don't know
Comments (11)I have a 14 yo. She and her friends like makeup, nail polish, lotions, soaps, bath bombs, matching hats and scarves, fuzzy socks, soft throw blankets, face masks, adult coloring books, hot chocolate, coffee mugs, kittens and puppies. The throw blanket is generic enough, but really nice for someone you have never met....See MoreGift cards --- don't do what I did
Comments (12)Do many gift card providers charge an activation fee? I consider that a lousy trick. Sometimes when standing beside a display of dozens of gift cards near the checkout, I suggest to others in the line that the card providers want me to give them currency that can be used in 3,000 or so stores in town and they give me an equal number of dollars' value on a card that can be used in only their store. There sure is a benefit there for them - but I don't see one for me, and if there's no benefit for me, they can keep their card till it rots. I'd rather give my friend funds that are useful in any of the 3,000 or so local stores than restricting her/him to one that can be used in only one store. I've asked a number of relatives and friends whether they'd be interested in my supporting a charity or group feeding the hungry, seeking justice, peace, women's rights, etc. in their honour, and several have agreed, some rather enthusiastically so. Some have said that they'll suggest that some their families do the same, as it relates to the spirit of the Christmas season - and most of us have little need of more stuff. Good wishes for a New Year that, in addition to good health, good friends and satisfactions in life, fulfills some of your dreams and inspires you to envision some great new ones! ole joyfuelled...See MoreSuzieque
