#shes not food aggressive but shes deff food obsessed

[fuck-kirk]

Your doggy is lovely! You must've been very patient to train her so well! Can I ask what her backstory is?

TW TW TW ANIMAL ABUSE....like srsly if this sorta thing triggers you don’t read

It’s really sad and I hate thinking about it, but she was born in a dog fighting ring, and she’s a mix so she was going to be used as a bait dog (and the people there definitely abused her) she was around 6 months old at this point I believe) But, apparently some people there liked her (because she’s so naturally sweet I’d assume) and decided to “save her” ...but they obviously weren’t ready for a dog/knew nothing about having pets/ are pieces of shit themselves IN GENERAL (I’m getting angry now fjsksk) and couldn’t handle her so they kept her in a tiny ass cage literally all day to sit in her own piss and shit, and didn’t feed her nearly enough. Idk if there was any physical abuse going on at this point but I know they yelled at her a lot everytime she made a noise, thus why she’s non verbal and makes literally zero noise. As well, she was kept in a breezeway in the middle of winter with no heat or blankets or ANYTHING

So, we get into how I got her. Well...we didn’t adopt her from a shelter or anything. We uh.....well. Okay, my brothers friend knew these people and told him about the dog, and me, my brother and his fiancé were all pissed as hell. Apparently people had called the police before about the people and nothing had been done. So we kinda, yknow,..... stole her. LISTEN. Maybe there was better ways, but she was in the breezeway, shivering, starving, covered in piss and shit, and when I looked in and saw her I knew I couldn’t leave her for even a day more. The door was unlocked, so I walked in and took her. Just like that. (We learned all of this history from my brothers friend/he was these people’s neighbor and had brought the issue of the dog up to them before. He wanted to take her himself but couldn’t bc they would know) they never reported her stolen or posted about it to my knowledge.

We took her home and she was so so so sweet. But ofc a dog with a past like that came with a lot of issues. At this point she was probably a year and a half old. She was never potty trained, and was always scared, and when she finally got over being scared she was EXITEABLE, and by that I mean she was almost completely unmanageable. And ofc she has an obsession with food. There was honestly so many issues it would take a lot more writing to outline them all. Thankfully, somehow, aggression was never one of them. She’s great with kids, cats, and other dogs. My brother and his fiancé were not equipped to deal with it at all and wanted to rehome her (they thought it would be best) but I had already grown attached and I could see that with a lot of work she was capable of being an amazing dog and companion.

I was right, of course. That was two years ago and after A LOT of work, she’s really come a long way. I had to get the help of a local trainer and ofc advice and recommendations from my Vet (she had to be prescribed doggie anxiety pills for a while). She still has her days ofc....she still chews stuff up if I don’t have time to walk her, or gets into the trash. But that’s just normal dog stuff yknow? She’s so happy and healthy and it just warms my heart so much seeing her everyday. It honestly just blows my mind how SWEET she is. That after all that humans put her through she just LOVES people. If she could attached to your hip 24/7, she would. And even after starving for a good portion of her life, she still lets the cat eat out of her food bowl with her. Idk what made her so godamn SWEET, but I couldn’t ask for a better dog and she’s worth all the hard work and frustration I went through 100%

how the moon signs deal with breakups

submitters were asked to answer the following q’s: how do you process a break up (do you first feel relieved and then grieve, for example)? how do you comfort yourself after a break up (could be outside influences or what you do alone)? feel free to continue to submit.

aries moon:

“after a break up - intense feelings, regret, obsessed with the person, very hard to let go, obsessed over what went wrong. Grief, sadness, anger and a bit of revenge. When alone - tries to figure out what went wrong, MUSIC, transformation does occur when it truly meant something for them. When outside - spends a lot of time playing sports, very competitive, angry, passionate. Expresses all the intense feelings through sports. Also stalking tendency.”

“I deff feel first might even react in a aggressive way. I comfort myself by emotionally eating and completely avoiding people until I get over it.. sometimes I go out and just try to forget it until.. I'm alone.”

taurus moon:

“I eat. A lot. I shop. A lot. I comfort myself with things money can buy. I go out and pretend to be happy. Once I’m done w/ the over-indulgence of my post-breakup then I hibernate for a couple weeks-months. While I’m hibernating, I think of everything we did, all the good and the bad. I remember smells, feelings, sensations, etc.That I associate with them. Or I rethink things about what I did wrong and how I could’ve done things different. I replay every little thing. Smh.”

gemini moon:

“When I break up with someone I normally feel tortured by the decision and I second guess myself at every turn. The only way I am able to process is by completely cutting ties with the other person so that I can heal into whom ever I am to become next. It takes a long time for me to get over a relationship and I still do experience longing from time to time.”

cancer moon:

“if I break up with someone, before doing it I feel so awful and guilty. I’m overwhelmed with to much stress that my stomach always hurts so badly. Then when I finally decide to do it, I don’t feel guilty anymore but instead I feel so nostalgic. I would think about us, what we were, our great memories. And idk it’s weird but I always end up loving the memory of that person more than the person themselves. Like... just the thought of them.”

leo moon:

“After breaking up with my ex, I immediately got dressed and ready to go out, I took selfies and posted them on social media where he would see them; I went out and had a good time and made sure he knew I was having the time of my life. After I got the attention I needed, I blocked him on everything.  When the love of my life broke up with me lmao I stayed in my room day and night, slept all day long, cried all night. And literally haven’t gotten over him to this date smh”

virgo moon:

“after a breakup i usually focus on myself only, i feel bad maybe for a couple of days but then i get up and make myself busy, i usually do something that my ex could see (succeeding at a project, etc.) and treat myself all the time 💃🏻face masks, my fav food, shopping💆🏻‍♀️”

libra moon:

“when i break up w/ someone, i feel terrible about it. i try to think of ways we can fix the relationship to avoid breaking their heart. when someone breaks up w/ me, i’ll pretend i’m fine in front of them & shrug it off like it’s not a big deal. but i’m an emotional mess once i get home, questioning if it was my own fault that they broke up w/ me.”

“I experience shock at first, like I turn stone cold while the break up is happening and then I go through denial, and being like "nah, they'll come back eventually", and then I think of all the things I did wrong and all the things they did wrong so I go on hating them for a bit until I start crying my ass out to some sad songs until I just don't give a shit anymore & move on”

scorpio moon:

“It was denial, like it didnt matter at first. Then, things sunk in and i just absorb until i exploded. I cried as i spoke to my mother about it. One week later, i started packing up everything that reminded me of her and kept in a box. Not one thing was left out as i wanted to banish any existence. A few months later, the pain has dull but there will always be an ache whenever i came across astrology posts that reminded me of her. She was the one whom got me into astrology.”

sagitarrius moon:

“I get mad, think of a revenge then cry, a lot, and never actually follow the revenge. Then try to seem all put together in front of them”

capricorn moon:

“I wouldn't be likely to be the one to break up. When broken up w, I try to work on myself to be a better person w hope of redemption. // I process a break up by crying, a lot of crying. I comfort myself w face masks and self care!”

“I can usually tell when someone’s lost interest in me or vice-versa already and I’d try to leave the relationship as quickly as possible. I’d then proceed to sever all existing contact with the person. Of all my exes, I feel almost immediate disgust towards them that I can’t even stand seeing their pictures or hearing their names lol. In terms of moving on, I don’t really get attached and usually get over the person whilst I’m still in the relationship”

aquarius moon:

“processing a break up, i’ll pretend to be fine in public but be an emotional mess when i’m alone. getting over a break up, i’ll probably try to distract myself by talking to someone new in order to get over the person that broke up w/ me.”

pisces moon:

“I’ve usually been fairly okay because in my head we’ve already broken up. But I usually cry a lil bit because I’ve lost my best friend, I eat, and then meet up with friends that I sort of ignored while in the relationship and move on”
