Yup. I was shocked to see it around his neck when I saw him. She totally ignored by question and now I feel like the shiitest dog mom in the world.
The worst park is she runs a week long boot camp for dogs. I would think trainers would be totally against those things.
LHT, I would have gone completely BSC on that woman if I found out she put a shock collar on my dog. In my head, that's the same as a daycare provider spanking your kid.
My irrational irritation (or maybe not irrational) is that our HR department sent out a memo today outlining appropriate warm weather attire at the work place. Do people really need a reminder that they shouldn't wear booty shorts (short-shorts as HR called them) and rubber flip-flops to work? FFS people - I get we're a casual campus but we are still a professional work place and you should dress accordingly.
I would shoot fire at that bitch, Hike. Literally. Flaming arrows covered in your dogs' shiit straight at her snatchy face.
Give negative reviews anywhere you can possibly put them and see if you can file a complaint with the BBB. If I was an owner of a pet that went there, I'd want to know that's how she treated the animals.

I agree. I'm not opposed to people using them per se; when I lived in an apartment I had to use one for a time. My dog would not stop barking and a neighbor complained so it was either use the collar or get a letter saying I had to get rid of my dog. But that is my choice as a dog parent; no one gets to make that choice for me.

It's not that I think he was hurt or whatever but I guess it's more that I wasn't there and part of the decision and wasn't asked about it. I just feel like a shiity mom because I left them with a crappy woman for 3 nights.

We are limited here because it's a small town but there are other places in the yellow pages and I'll ask some of the wives I know here, I just thought it would be awesome that they weren't in a kennel all day and could play outside since they are so high energy.
I'm irrittated with the Meg girl a few threads down who DDd. i'm irritated with anyone who DDs after being quoted. I'm irritated that someone is stupid enough to DD when everyone can see what they wrote anyway. Irrational.
My rational/irrational irritation is employers. I've applied to two jobs now for next fall. One a week ago, one this morning (so I'm obviously not really annoyed with this mornings one yet). You'd think I could at least get some sort of acknowledgement that they received my info and whatnot. I know it's horribly rirational because as focused as I am on finding a job for next fall, I know their #1 priority isn't filling their positions lol.
LHT & jcb - re: the sig pic, it was at the Grand Canyon last Friday with a red Solo cup (GD Toby Keith) of wine in hand. Probably the best afternoon I've had that wasn't H or Hawaii related.

I have another irrational irritation. We have a lot of vendors that hang outside in front of work and give out freebies to the students walking around. I am irritated that I get harassed by the people giving out stupid stuff every time I leave the office. Every once in awhile someone will be giving out something cool and they act like they can't be bothered to hand out their freebie. I want to crap vendors to leave me alone and I want the cool vendors to hand me free shiit. Is that too much to ask?
