I really think we can save bees but anyone who says we can't survive without bees is a fucking dumb ass. Most our oxygen comes from phytoplankton if you wanna bring up that pollination bull shit.

I think we could easily come up with a way to pollinate our own crops.
All our food comes from farms anyway whats the point of having yellow jackasses?

Help me, my mothers dog has seperation anxiety from her and goes fucking ballistic when shes not home. She cries and smashes shit, and when she does get home shell jump up on her and then run outside and piss. Shes a huge dog too ( a sheep dog) so its bs dealing with her when she freaks out. On top of that she ignores her, so im the one that has to do her walks, training, playing and most feeling, and i have disdain to her.

I have an Australian cattle dog (pictured) who gets tons of attention in public, especially when I bring him to the beach and especially from females.

In this sense, he is a prick and a cockblock because he is a bad jumper. Like almost as bad as a Boxer. Even though I try to keep his nails trimmed it can still hurt bare skin when he does this, so I often have to tell people they can't pet him.

I can't think of any fix for this. He doesn't jump on me at all anymore because I apply the standard measure of training where I ignore him. How do I get him to act this way toward other people, specifically, strangers?

>>2340233
why not ask the stranger to follow that same method of training? if he goes to jump, have them turn away and don't actually pet him until he's got all 4 paws on the ground.
>>
>>2340235
This is kind of what I expected to hear, and you are probably right. Problem is most people don't listen or understand what you mean.
>>
>>2340236
Ah, yeah I know that feel. When my golden was a puppy he used to jump on people and whenever I'd ask them to push him away or turn away they'd say "oh I don't mind!!"

Like...that's. not. the. point.
It seems fine when he's a puppy, but as he gets older that "harmless" behaviour can accidentally knock someone over or hurt them.

Do you have some friends or family members who wouldn't mind helping you out? Assuming he jumps at people when they enter the house of course. get them to come over, and get him to sit calmly when he goes to greet them at the door. Hopefully that behaviour translates to outdoor situations with strangers

Go to a groomer and get his hair cut short or take it to the vet, vomiting that much could cause him to starve.

I left for a year and came back and my dog didn't recognize me. Just barks at me like a stranger. Though when my mom calls me and she says my name he reacts. So I don't know what the fuck is going on. Dogs are just stupid.

What dog (for when my current dog of 11 years eventually dies) would be good for someone who wants:
- Regular hiking of 1-5 miles/day.
- Short coat, does not require shaving/clipping.
- 75-100lbs.

I'm very experienced with dogs and have owned akitas, labs, etc. as well as worked at a kennel/assisted in professional training, so experience required/difficulty in training is not a concern.

/an/, what is your opinion on zoos?

is an enclosed life a fair exchange for the benefit of no risks of natural wildlife?
26 posts and 3 images submitted.
>>
only if the animals in question are injured/unhealthy and would otherwise be at risk in the wild
>>
another question, do animals feel that they re enclosed?
i mean, do they crave freedom? if they have an easy food source and no predators, why would they otherwise be bothered?
we re talking about decent, big enclosures, not cubicle ones.
>>
I'm totally against zoos and think they've outlived their usefulness to Society. I get them a hundred years ago when people couldn't travel like we do today as well as having electronic video technology, etc to where today we can experience the Natural World almost anywhere. Hundred years ago peopel couldn't do that. Zoos and traveling circuses were the only way peeps could experience other life forms.

But today all of this is, zoos, are not necessary.

So, my grandparents want a dog but here's the wish list for the dog:
>quiet
>kind of energetic but mostly calm (in-between energetic and lazy)
>easy to train (train as in teach it to only piss outside)
>resistant against heat and cold (heat is more important)
>not to big (either small or medium)
what do ya think? Is there any dog breed like this? Pic unrelated.

>>2339210
adopt an older dog. greyhounds are quiet, clean, heat tolerant qualify as "lazy but occasionally energetic" and there's hundreds of ex racing greyhounds that will come to you already house trained
>>
>>2339213
Was about to say this, until I read that they need a heat-resistant dog. Greyhounds have very little body fat and can suffer from heatstroke more easily, plus you need to get them things they can use when it's cold. Otherwise a greyhound would be ideal for you OP
