TROPHY CASE


One-Year Club

PETA is building their new west coast headquarters in my neighborhood. Any suggestions on how I can mess with them?

exotics 2 points3 points 4 hours ago[-]

I like this link pointing out the difference between Animal Rights and Animal Welfare

I am with you awareness of what PETA is is far better than torturing animals and eating them just to make a point. I say that because some of these other answers will just make PETA stonger and fight harder, provoking a fight.

I support animal welfare, NOT animal rights. Sadly many people who support PETA have no idea what they are really supporting.

PETA does not view household pets as legitamate animals - since they are "man made" PETA wants them all destroyed and do not support pet ownership of any kind.

However there are some things they do that are good.. like anti-fur awareness.. I bet most people STILL dont know that pregnant Karakul ewes are KICKED until they abort so their lambs can be killed and used while their fur is its blackest and curlyest. (I know this because I have sheep and have been involved with the sheep industry.. I of course DO NOT do this to my sheep)

If you really want to mess with PETA, spread information to people about the difference between Animal Welfare and Animal Rights in this way people will support the SPCA etc.. who really care about pets and animals and hopefully will not support PETA

I like the dog being a bit off center, but yes, its a shame to cute off some of his hairs. still cute!

My 9 month old Shih Tzu snubs his dry food now. Should i make a switch?

NO NO NO.. the Pet Gravy is CARBS.. pure crap.. a gimmick!
And what you are doing with the fat... isnt much better (espeicailly pork fat).

ANYTHING WET added to dry food makes the food rot in very short time - you MUST throw uneaten food out in 20 minutes.

Its better to just put the dry food in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to bring out the natural oils and smells. brown rice is better than white.

at 9 months he can be on Adult food.
One thing you must consider is that when dogs are hungry they will eat. If he drops weight then that is a concern, but just like people some dogs need more food, some dogs need less.

Adding wet food to the dry food has its own problems.. some dog soon only eat the more yummy wet food and soon the owner is trained into feeding wet food only.

You are better to feed a more MEAT based food - put the dry kibble in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to bring out the oils and natural smells.

1 hour hard exercise is a lot for this breed.

PetStatus.com is just like Twitter…except it’s very clearly designed for pets, by pets.

I just dont understand the idea of PRETENDING to be your own pet. I love pets.. have several but this seems a bit sick and kinda depressing.

In some cases "NO PETS ALLOWED" laws may be broken for disabled individuals. Know your rights.

I am in Canada and not sure if these rules and laws apply here, as the writer is from California I assume its American laws.

Sometimes I browse Reddit and wish I had a kid just for the free upvotes for every average, normal thing I photograph them doing.

I up vote pet pictures.. never kids... they really are not that cute..and the world has too many of them anyhow.. yes I await the down votes because of this..

Update on Thailand’s Largest Ivory Bust - Interview with Thailand’s Director of Clearance Customs Bureau

exotics 0 points1 point 2 days ago[-]

its all well and good to make these kinds of busts but unless they release the impounded ivory at extremely low costs... the demand will force further hunting. If ivory were cheap.. (they have TONS of it in storage) people would buy from the governments and put poachers out of business soon enough.. poaching would be kept illegal and any time the government make a seize they would sell the goods super cheap..

thanks it was from a photo, not 100% sure if that was the breed.. might have been a cross.

That episode's end blew my mind. What did you think of "Dr. Linus"?

speaking of not dying.. remember something was said about Micheal not being able to die for a period of time.. then I am pretty sure he blew up...

Is my dog's cut okay? (pictures inside, they're a little gross)

exotics 1 point2 points 2 days ago[-]

YES. I use to own my own business and had a groomer rent a space from me. She NEVER had anyone sign such a paper. Maybe this is a regional thing.. but where I am this is unheard of. Either way I doubt it would be legally binding. I dont blame the groomer either, as I said in my comment.. it was partially your fault for letting the dog get matted that badly.

I have seen accidents happen, and know they do.. (also seen some bad groomers, but I do not suspect your groomer was bad).. I am gald your dog is okay! Thats what matters.

exotics 1 point2 points 2 days ago[-]

in the future dont ever sign papers.. its probably not legally binding.. but if they did some serious damage to the dog they would still fight it.. I made a longer comment elsewhere.... in this case its partially your fault for letting the dog get matted.. these breeds need their hair brushed DAILY!

exotics 2 points3 points 2 days ago[-]

some groomers will pay half the vet bill but because YOU neglected to keep the dogs hair brushed or trimmed you are the reason the dog got matted.. still it wouldnt hurt to ask them.. but I wouldnt push it, and as he didnt charge you I think thats fair.. it really wasnt his fault.

BUT you should NEVER sign a paper.. it probably IS NOT legally binding. (was it witnessed? writen by lawyers?)

call a vet and see if one will take payments, or if your local shelter has a fund they can offer to help you with as some have funds for care for low income people (make sure to make a donation to them in the future when things improve for you)

in the future seeing a vet right away is often cheaper than letting an infection get worse..

poltices might help but a vet will help more.. good luck!
