I have two dogs who are in the yard during the day and in house during the night. I am curious if there is a safer way to treat my yard so that my dogs do not ingest harmful pesticides. Sometimes my dogs eat grass and do not want them to become ill.

Is there a safe alternative to flea control products to treat my yard?
Tuesday, December 15th, 2009I have two dogs who are in the yard during the day and in house during the night. I am curious if there is a safer way to treat my yard so that my dogs do not ingest harmful pesticides. Sometimes my dogs eat grass and do not want them to become ill.
OK, So there’s this guy lol?
Friday, December 11th, 2009Sorry that this question/story started off like all of the other ones. But there’s this guy, right? His name is JC. He’s totally awsome! But here’s how it all started. At my high school, we recently started holding a “Gamer Club”. Well, I was standing outside waiting for my dad to come get me. Only he had JUST left work, and it takes him about 30 mintues to get there. So I had 30 minutes to be bored with. Almost everyone was home and off campus, so I sat in the grass with my Xbox and games beside me. Bored. Waiting for my dad. I heard these guys talking quite loud behind me. One of them was pretty cute. So every now and again, I would look over at them. Then I heard them yelling, “Hey! Hey girl in the red!” And I turned around like I didn’t know who they were talking to and I said, “Me?” And They said, “Yeah! You should come over here and sit with us!” So I was thinking, ‘Hmmm…Perfect chance to waste some time!” So I walked over. I set down my bag that had my 360 and games in it right next to my feet and said, “Hi!” And they all introduced themselves. One, I could tell, was VERY immature with short, but str8 hair. Then one wasn’t really paying attention to me bc he was on his phone. Then the third one looked the most interested in me. He kept staring at me. So he kept telling me how cool it was that I’m a girl AND that I play videogames. And we just kept lauhing and stuff. So he asked me for my gamertag. lol So I gave it to him and at the bottom it said, “Can’t wait to own you!” And he laughed at that. And we flirted for the longest and he kept telling me dirty jokes, lol and stuff. And he’s DROP DEAD GORGEOUS! He has long brown curly hair and deep green and brown eyes. I’ve yet to find out his ethnicity, though. But, yeah. So I got online and waited for him til about…8 o’clock. Then, right as I’m about to give up, he gets online and sends me a MSG. And I kept erasing them because I just wanted to go to bed. But then he started sending me private chat invites. So, eventually, I accepted it and only planned on TALKING. But then I ended up playing Call of Duty 4 with him til 8 o’clock the next morning! But he wanted to know more about me. So he started off asking me easy questions like, ‘What’s your favorite color, soda, music genre, blah blah blah…’ lol. But then he tried to dig deep and I didn’t want to open up. I have bad trust issues. And he kept telling me that I could talk to him anytime and that he’s not the one to judge a person. And as much as I didn’t want to, I let him into my past. And he told me a little about his. And then he starting saying how all he thought about was me after he left school the first day we met. And how he’s kinda confused because at night, all he wanted to do was have me laying in his arms asleep, knowing that he could protect me all night. He told me that he has no intention to go straight into sex. That for once, he wants to take things slow. So he told me every thing that he loves about me, which some things I didn’t know I did, like stare at him for a long time, then smile. Then I told him everything I liked about hiim. His curly hair, his his drop dead gorgeous smile, the way he gets mad at his friends for looking at me, and his beautiful eyes, his style, and the way he smiles at me when I walk up to him, and how he gives me butterflies if he does as much as look at me. And I admitted that every time he talks to me, I smile. He could tell me that my dog just died, and I’d just smile, lol. Then he said that he thinks he’s falling for me. And that he just wants to be with me, and that I’m the only thing that’s ever on his mind. And I told him that it’s the same way with me. Then there was an awkward silence. Then he said, “So, you’re falling for me…” And I got butterflies BAD. lol It’s like nothing I’ve ever felt. And I said, “I know it’s too early to be doing any falling, but I think I am falling for you. But I’m just afraid to fall…” And he said, “Don’t worry. I’ll catch you.” And after that, he’s all I think about. All the songs I listen to remind me of him. And…I don’t know. I’m falling. And I’m falling HARD. I’m just so scared. I don’t know if I should stay open to him like I’ve been doing and just let myself fall in love with him. Or if I should keep my guard up at all times. HELP!
Sorry it’s so long! I just think that it’s easier to give advice when you have all of the small details! Again, sorry guys!
would you hire me to cut your grass? if not any suggestions?
Monday, December 7th, 2009Girls dog keeps pooping in front of my house?
Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009This girl who lives next door always allows her dog to poop in front of my house. Technically I do not own the piece of grass located between the sidewalk and street but I do cut it, water it, clean it, etc. Well my neighbor next door, her dog always poops on that part.
I am not lying there is approx. 50 pieces of poop.
Now what should I do?
I thought about ignoring it but it annoys the crap out of me.
I thought about putting it all in a bag and setting it in front of her front door but, that is too much.
I thought about confronting her but I had a problem in the past with her family. (They left two cats in a cage on the sidewalk in front of my house. My boyfriend and I asked if they knew whose cats they were and they replied “they are not ours anymore”. Well that sparked a huge fight between us because we stated that that was animal cruelty, etc. etc. My boyfriend and I ended up taking in the cats.).
I thought about posting a sign but I know that will get knocked down real quick.
Then I thought that I must be uptight and ridiculous for letting this annoy the crap out of me.
Any suggestions and am I being ridiculous???
All suggestions appreciated.
I meant humans responsibility.
NO I would never ever hurt an animal intentionally. It is the human beings responsible not the pets.
what texture should dog poop be?
Tuesday, December 1st, 2009My dog has been to the vet recently, and the did say she was perfectly healthy. I have ofen wondered if her poop is to soft. Usually when i take her for walks, some of the poop gets stuck to the grass, and it is very sqishy in the poopy bag. However, yesterday her poop was firm and it stayed in shape when i picked it up.
Is it better for the stool to be hard, or soft?
What exactly does ‘curb your dog’ mean?
Monday, November 23rd, 2009I see a lot of signs in my neighborhood that say ‘curb your dog.’ I always took it to mean that your dog should be walked on the sidewalk and the grass between the sidewalk and the road and NOT in people’s yards. However people are always walking their dogs in my yard, so that got me confused.
When I walk my dog, he stays close to me on the sidewalk. I try to get him to do his business only in my yard, and clean it up right away. I never ever let him go on other people’s lawns or near their houses. Once in a while he will poop on the grass that’s between the sidewalk and the road and I will clean it up right away. I always carry extra doggy bags. Am I doing everything right?
