The strange reason to shave the dog

youless @youless (112481) • Guangzhou, China 23 Apr 13

My colleague shaved her dog and her dog looks so weird and even ugly in my opinion. I asked her why she had to shave the dog. She said it would be easier to handle since the dog often fell the hair everywhere. I was in shock to...

snowcat46 I have 2 dogs. We've had dogs before and never had to shave them. Even though they had thick hair, they were fine. These 2 are different. As soon as it turns fairly warm, we have to shave them. As close to the skin as we can get. Yes, it's ugly. Yes, it breaks...

I feel rejected

grandpa_lash @grandpa_lash (5225) • Australia 8 Sep 12

The scenario: a member I have not interacted with before, not a newbie, starts a whole bunch of relatively interesting discussions in one of my favourite topics, and I respond on a number of them. I was on my best behaviour, no...

snowcat46 Maybe they were scared of the "grandpa" thing? They didn't want to seem to contradict you? I've had responses to some of my discussions that were so complete, or so confusing, I had no idea how to answer them. I didn't want to get in a conversation where...

snowcat46 We get invaded every year. I used to use a borax and sugar mixed in hot water, then dip strips of paper towel in and put in strategic places. Borax is the main ingredient in most ant poison. This year we had the tiny ants that came in and the extra large...

snowcat46 Vinegar on a bee or other sting. Keeps it from swelling. My daughter was very allergic to stings. She'd swell up FAST. I tried that and it worked beautifully. Colds--I used to eat raw onions with salami on a sandwich. It stopped working well after a few...

How are you saving money ?

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (160626) • United States 8 Nov 12

I do not mean in a bank or a credit union, but more I would just like to know what things you are doing in your life to cut expenses. I think it gets harder and harder to do. One example is that I make my own laundry soap. Another...

snowcat46 We have had cable and DISH. Then we went to just antenna. I couldn't see the point of paying them so much just to watch reruns constantly, or not even find anything I wanted to see. Now we have Netflix. Not the greatest, but it's only $8 a month. Hulu Plus has...

I want to run away

savypat @savypat (20216) • United States 21 Oct 12

How many times in your life have you had these thoughts? Well I thought that was the answer many times during my childhood and here in my old age these thoughts arise again. Of course I have no idea where I would run to....

snowcat46 When I was young, it was Canda or Alaska. The wilderness, no people, back to nature. As an adult, it was more an island. So I could support myself, no people again, lots of animals. But there's a standing "joke" (maybe not so much a joke as a wish)...

snowcat46 I wonder if she has LRP. It's stomach acid in the throat. My daughter has this. She went to various doctor. One told her "it was in just in her head." (I dislike doctors that do that. I'd like to slap them) My girl kept trying and found a doctor who'd...

snowcat46 I never loan money unless I can afford it. Once you loan it, get used to the idea they won't pay it back. If they do, you're ahead. If they don't, NEVER loan to them again. Preferably don't let them in your house again either. If you refuse them money, they...

I don't know much about the Humane Society. For example, is it just based in the US despite me receiving emails from them here in the UK or do they operate around the world? I'd love to know. Anyway, in one of the latest...

Michelle @infatuatedbby (94914) • United States 3 Apr 11

snowcat46 When I was young (ever so many eons ago), I insisted my husband wear his ring. It was important to me. Then I realized how much of a hassle it was to me to wear mine, since I worked on machines. He's a mechanic and it was even more dangerous for him to wear...
