No one cares about that Scott, we want to know if you’re a grandpa.
Things have taken A turn in the Gene Hackman case. Apparently his wife’s body showed signs of decomposition/mummification.
So did his. And there were scattered pills around Betsy. She was found near a space heater, its been chilly at night in Santa Fe. I’m still thinking carbon monoxide. It’s all sad
How long do you have to be dead for “mummification” to set in? I also read that 2 other dogs were found alive – one inside and one outside the house. I still think carbon monoxide is the most likely cause but wouldn’t the other dog inside have been affected also?
The dog that died was found in its kennel, it may have starved to death :'(
omg that’s really horrible. the scattered pills make it seem like she took her own life but why leave one dog in the kennel and the other two roaming free?
I wonder if something happened to Gene, she took some meds to try to calm down or prevent an anxiety attack or something and accidentally took too many?
Gene was found on the floor of the mudroom. They think he fell? The whole thing is weird.
There has been another measles death so 2 children have died so far.
And it won’t make any difference at all because too many idiots think that there is a greater risk in taking the vaccine. Those poor kids.
About that dog who died in it’s kennel/crate. If possible, train your dog to stay in the crate with the door open, or with the door shut but not locked, so they can push open the crate door and get out in an emergency.
I have a question about these cages: why do people keep animals in them at home? I come from a country where, if you have a dog at home, you don’t keep it in a cage. It just runs free. I often see these cages in American movies/series/documentaries and on videos on the internet. Is this some kind of nationwide trend? Do all American dogs destroy things at home and bite people?
Not so much that the dogs destroy things, though there might be some that would. But if crate trained, the crate can be a safe place where they feel comfortable, like their own den.
And it’s a place the owner knows the dog is safe, can’t harm herself or get into harm. When i’ve had my last dog, once he was trained and used to the kennel, I often just left the door open, so he could settle in there whenever he wanted, or I could say “kennel up” and he’d happily head in – sometimes useful for when I had company, including small children or others who could be jostled by a 90 lb eager greeter. (He was trained to sit and greet politely but people could still be startled and he wasn’t 100% reliable.)
I’d learned about crate training while raising service dog puppies: the programs required crate training. Also training to relieve themselves on command, which was SO useful: head out of the house to the spot, say “get busy” and < 5 minutes later, we're off to go walk, or drive someplace, get on with our day (or back in the house if it's awful out or 2 am).
I’m American and my family always had dogs. We never had crates and they weren’t a thing when I was a girl in the 80s. It’s a newer thing- in my mind it’s connected to the increased militarization of the police and EVERYTHING in the US becoming more extreme and controlled. I was raised, and still believe, pets are family members, but very vulnerable ones. Because I’m a calm person my dogs are also always chill. I don’t do any special training except pay attention to their micro signals and let them train me.
We have one for our dog. She considers it her bed and goes in and out of it all day and night. It’s piled with blankets and toys, and is kept dark and quiet for her. The door is never closed, unless there are workmen in the house or something and she won’t leave them alone. She loves her bed.
1. Doctors who prescribe the weightloss drugs to people who do not meet the specific criteria/guidelines to recieve those drugs should lose their medical licenses immediately. 2. Dolly is a national treasure. 3. Scott Disick, Chris Pratt and that weird nepo baby are not national treaures. 4. Rest in peace and power, Michelle and Gene. She was so young. He was one of my all time favorite actors. It is a sad day for both families. 5. The fan girlie uproar around Luigi is bizarre. We live in strange times.
