Yeah but think of it this way, they come there for support. nothing more, nothing less. idk what to tell you about the dog.

Well that's not actually true. They come for support, but it is also a forum for questions, suggestions, giving or receiving advice on caretaking. .


I've moved on from the dog Cami. I probably posted a little too soon. It was probably one of those " you have to be there" situations to appreciate the entire scenario. I think it was her refusal to even DISCUSS a solution after going on about it for 10 minutes that irked me. I mean literally, she didn't want to her 10 seconds of what anyone had to say. I can appreciate just wanting to vent, but after she said her husband strangles and bites her, it didn't really make me think he should be caring for an animal.
 
tell the dumb bitch to put the dog in another room while her husband eats...

Ray, I tried! I approached her with "I had the same problem with my mom" and suggested the kenneling the dog during meals. She immediately said "he doesn't want to kennel him." and pretty much end of discussion.

So today I'm at a caregiver luncheon. People are telling stories about Alzheimers/Parkinson's behavioral issues--how their loved one cuts the grass with scissors, etc

This one woman tells that her husband has this dog. The man (with dementia) apparently doesn't think the dog is fed enough and feeds him absurd amounts of his food off his plate. She said he "stuffs" the dog to the point that the dog has gotten sick. She tries to explain that dogs stomachs are much smaller, and that he could make the dog sick but it falls on deaf ears.


As a dog lover this pisses me off. Seems like borderline abuse. Dog will continue to have digestive issues and may get diabetes. I'm tempted to make a phone call, but if they took this guy's dog away he may take it out on the wife (she said he has had bouts of anger where he has bitten and "strangled" her. Also if they take his dog away it may throw him into a worse state of dementia. Actually doubtful anything could/would be done.

Am I overreacting? Is this none of my business? Should I forget about it? Would be interested in opinions.


There are sensitive people on here so I apologize in advance and give you a heads up that this isn't meant to be mean.

It's none of your business. Forget about it, move on and enjoy life.

I think that may have been her polite way of telling you to mind your own business. I could be wrong.
 
Let's all just move past the dog stuff. I will if you will.

Puck Off...You were much nicer on Thanksgiving.

RR...I like the Bobby videos. You should start a thread and add as they come up. Is that his natural voice/accent? Did it seem excessively exaggerated in that first one? I don't remember that from priors. He is an interesting study also, and that is actually a compliment.
