Pet DNA testing company in doghouse after identifying human as canine

Jump

  • Litter loading is a thing. People buy a dog but it's swapped for a cheaper or non pedigree. DNA testing is done for puppies to verify that they are what they're supposed to be and AKC requires it sometimes.

  • The cost of groceries goes up - it never goes down. Electric rates are going up and it seems everything is going up. Medical care is horrible expensive and it's not going to come back down again. I don't know what planet she's on.

    • Do you often hear the ringing of switching power supplies and devices when you are in a quiet space?

    Jump

  • I'm 56, wear earplugs at night, and still hear an intermittent electrical noise. It's not a high-pitched whine, more like a low hum. I live in an apartment complex so it's likely the wiring. I have hyperacusis.

    • It seems like all packaged foods do this now

    Jump

  • Weigh another one with the package and see if it matches to what it says on the package. Use the produce weight scale at the store so you don't have to buy two of them. I have a suspicion that you're buying the package. But then if that's the case then those meat moisture absorbers also will add a lot of weight when it comes to buying meat.

  • Thank you! This is immensely helpful. There are a few subreddits or some other information that I need occasionally.

  • Canine respiratory virus is not just affecting dogs at shelters and kennels, it is affecting pets in homes. Some dogs are coming down with it who have not had contact with other dogs.

  • Thank you. I have Medicaid... this is very wrong then that I keep getting denied. My doctor has even sent the pharmacy an order twice and they deny it. I'm 56 yrs old with some health issues. I'll ask the health department what I can do.

  • I have tried three times to get the measles vaccine and my insurance refuses.

  • I found out a couple years ago then I have no measles immunity. I'm not vaccinated because my mother never had had me get vaccinated when I was a child (I'm 56yo now.) She lied on my school records and made up random dates off the top of her head filling out school paperwork. Nobody cared back in the 1970's and 80's and we moved a lot.

    To get the measles vaccination now will cost over $100, my insurance won't pay for it. I hope that I can come up with the money at some point and pay for it there is always something else that I need to spend that money on.

  • Products and services that have gone up because fuel costs more wont be going back down though.

    Jump

  • It's like being bullied or grounded for some behavior crime over and over again. After a while a person stops caring about the things that got taken away and goes into suspension about liking anything because that too gets used as a weapon.

  • Well said. Back-to-back holidays are a chore, financially and mentally draining, and all the billions of decorations wind up in landfills.

  • You won't be able to go to college, and many employers won't accept the degree from a diploma mill either.

  • I have a suspicion it's Covid or maybe mixed with some other canine influenza. Possible it's a brand new variant. Cats can get canine influenza too. I think the canine influenza vaccine would help especially older dogs and those with health issues. I think the canine influenza vaccine might be in short supply still.

    Asher house in Oregon got hit hard. It's a dog sanctuary, the owner has a large tiktok following and people helped buy oxygen chambers for his dogs. Some of the dogs get acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) within a couple of days. Or they seem to get better but then they suddenly get very sick again and that's the same thing that happened with people and covid with "happy hypoxia" and then it gets worse. Poor dogs probably get fibrosis in the lungs from the scars.
