I went to take a shower and left a croissant on the counter and when I was done I heard strange high pitched noises so I looked around the corner and at the top of the stairs was my boyfriends lab. She was crying and limping, and my much larger male dog was standing at the bottom of the stairs.
They obviously got in a fight over the food, and she didn't win...he took her to the vet this morning, but now my boyfriend will not talk to me or acknowledge me or my dog in any way.
My problem is, he slept downstairs last night, didn't wake me up to go to the vet, and has said maybe 10 words total to me today. I'm upset about her being hurt and I feel like I'm being blamed for this. Obviously I shouldn't have left the food out, but its not the first time we've had food out and they've been downstairs with it alone.
Should I try to talk to him or just leave home alone. I'm feeling sick to my stomach and very stressed about this whole thing (link)

Talk to him about it, but give him some time first. He'll probably be upset for a while because it was his companion that was hurt. Look towards mending both your boyfriend and your dogs relationship. There seems to be some sort of food aggression going on, and it's best to address that right away to keep that from happening again. Food aggression is dangerous to humans and animals.

Hey,
My dog is a Whippet and she is 10 years old. Last night she threw up 8 times for no apparent reason. After the 8th time she tried to throw up again but nothing came out anymore. Tonight she just threw up again. She just had a vet appointment last week and everything was fine he said but why is she throwing up all of a sudden? We havent changed her diet in any way that would cause this.. (link)

No idea, but make sure you keep her hydrated at this point. She's losing a lot of liquid and dehydration can cause death.

She hasn't been eating & she was laying on my floor & blood just came out of her bum. It's hard for her to walk and lift herself up. I've been trying to get her to eat. Does it mean she has worms? (link)

Hi, it is best to take her to the vet. It could be anything. I got my puppy at 8 weeks old and he had only been with me fore 2 days when I noticed the blood coming out of his butt. Is it bloody diahrea? Does it have a strong smell like metal? Lethargy? Vomiting? It could be ANYTHING because puppies are so small and their immune system isn't as strong as an adult dogs yet. My puppy had parvo which is highly contagious and it can kill a puppy in a day. Take her to the vet as soon as you can, you could end up saving her life. Make sure she stays hydrated.

I always get bullied for being one f the "fat" girls. And i just don't know how to make them stop. I have starved myself for 3 days and i only lost 6 pounds. I am just sick of this, Everyday i know there is going to be a person who is going to be calling me fat or fatty. I have stayed home for like a week in a half (in total) Just because i didn't want to go to school. But now i am being forced to go because i got a letter from my school saying that if i miss one more day then i will go to Juvenal court. So now every day i have no choice but to go though hell for 8 hours.
So can someone help me and tell me what i can do to loose some weight? (link)

Hey, I understand that you are conscious of what people think of you. The only way to get through this is confidence. But if you are dissatisfied with how you are it is difficult to be confident in yourself right? It will take time to build it. The best way to lose weight is to exercise. You can eat everyday and still lose weight, doesn't that sound easier? Exercising can be fun. It won't be easy to change your daily routine at first to slip in 30 minutes worth of jogging or whatever it is you want to do while you exercise. But patience is also very important. Don't worry about what other people think of you, karma will come back at them. If you do wrong to others you will get it back. If you want to lose weight, I have a challenge for you. There are apps that help monitor your calorie intake. Just put in what you eat for breakfast,lunch,dinner. I use myfitnesspal, and its an iphone app but I don't know what kind of phone you have. It lets me put in all of my meals as well as snacks and the amount of calorie I lost while exercising. If you don't have an iphone then find an app that is similar to it, and if you don't have a smartphone then find another way. This is going to take dedication. The best way to lose weight is by monitoring what you eat, not to quit eating all together, and exercising to lose weight. For example, the average person needs about 2000 calories per day. If you exceed that amount then you will gain weight. This is without considering exercise. Lets say you ate 2500 worth of calories, then you can reduce it back to around 2000 by jogging and depending on your pace you can lose about 500 calories in an hour if you are jogging slowly. So if that same person ate 2000 calorie worth of food in a day but jogged slowly and lost 500 calories they would have a total of 1500 calories in that day. That means they're losing weight. But here's the most important part to losing weight: You need to be honest with yourself. Don't sneak any snacks or food breaks. If you exercised for 25 minutes instead of 30, don't consider it as 30 minutes. 25 minutes is 25 minutes. Don't starve yourself, just eat and exercise right. If you eat any snacks, then fine but add some more minutes to your jog or any other exercise to work it off. If you do this you will have a healthier future, and plus if you keep doing it long enough it'll feel like a daily routine and you'll get use to it. If you want to commit to this then take a picture of yourself before you start exercising. Jog everyday for at least an hour, and take a picture of yourself every 2 weeks. Remember to be honest with yourself. Also theres a website that you can go to and it'll tell you how much calorie you need per day. 2000 is just the average, so if you want to know the exact calorie intake YOU need per day try going here:

Good luck! =]
Oh yeah, and if you don't want to do all of that then you can say... Screw it, I don't care what they think of me. Because like I said CONFIDENCE is what you need.

I have a 1 year old puppy and I've had her for nearly a year. She's eaten her poop before, but now I'm getting tired of it. I stepped in it yesterday AND today, when I came home. Why is this? And how can I stop this? She's been doing this for a few months (I thought she would stop. She did, for awhile, but it's started again). Please help me! This is disgusting! (link)

Put her on a leash and take her out to do her business. My family takes our dog out and she started doing it so whenever she did we would just tug her away and say no. Also, pick up after her. It may be your yard and you feel like you don't mind her pooping in it but its still there and anyone can step on it. It would be helpful if she knows the meaning of no too. also if theres any word that you use in place of "no" feel free to use it.

what does it mean when the boy/ man in the relationship goes to fast? (link)
| |
It just means that they're not being patient and rushing things. If things are moving too fast for you then just calm down and tell them that you think that the relationship is developing too fast and you would like to slow down.

How t0 stop a woman from lesbian (link)
| |
Since you asked that question, let me ask you back... how do i stop a man or woman from being straight? Whether is person is gay or straight, it is never up to anyone else to decide but that person themselves. A person's sexual orientation has no power over their personality.

I have known this friend for 2 years, and we were roommates for this year at college. I had bought an extremely expensive black skirt and brought it to college but I didn't wear it after September because it was too cold, so it laid in my drawers for months. The other day I saw my roommate wearing a black skirt that looked really similar to mine, and I asked if it was mine and she said no, it was hers and she had bought it at a major retailer discount store. I searched my dorm room and my skirt was missing, that following weekend I went home and searched my house and found no skirt. When she was in the bathroom I quickly looked at the tag and its the exact size and brand of my skirt that is missing.. I feel bad confronting her but she really doesn't seem the type to steal someone's clothes, I think it might just be a misunderstanding but I'm not sure how to confront her/convince her that the skirt is actually mine. (link)

It could be a coincidence that she bought the same skirt, but you could ask her what size she wears in skirts and confirm it with your skirt size. This isn't a fool proof method but if she says a different size then it probably is your skirt.
