Familiarize yourself with the changes teenage boys undergo. Remember that teenage boys are insecure. Look for common ground. Accept that he may act differently around his friends. Learn to make casual conversation.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Just as you're going through changes as a teenager, boys in your grade are also experiencing changes. Ask your health teacher where to find reading information. You can also ask your parents or an older male relative you trust, such as a brother or male cousin.  You may notice some physical changes in the boys in your class. Their voices may get deeper and they may begin to grow hair on their faces and underarms. Boys also undergo sexual changes. They will start to release testosterone and begin to experience erections. Understand that they may be embarrassed by this, just like you may be initially embarrassed by your period. While puberty is a normal part of growing up, it is normal to have some insecurity about puberty. Teenage boys in your grade may be embarrassed by physical and other changes they're undergoing, so be understanding of this.  Teenage boys may experience erections without cause, or their voices may squeak when they talk. They may get embarrassed by this. Don't tease the boys in your grade about puberty, no matter how tempting it may be. After all, you wouldn't want to be teased by the changes you're going through. While you may feel your experiences couldn't be more different than the experiences of teenage boys, there is actually a lot of common ground. You can better understand teenage boys if you identify areas where you're going through similar changes.  Like you, boys are beginning to grow hair on the underarms and pubic region. Boys also experience mood swings and feelings of anger and frustration due to changing hormones. Hormones can also cause quick changes in energy levels. You may notice people respond to you differently as you grow. People see you more as an adult and may treat you differently. This happens to boys during puberty as well. Boys sometimes treat you differently around their friends. Teenage boys are often embarrassed to be interested in girls for the first time. He may act standoffish towards you because he feels insecure. He may also want to make it clear to his...


Familiarize yourself with the color wheel. Pair complementary colors. Compare swatches before painting or buying furniture and accents. Stick with the colors you love. Get inspiration from a prominent piece in the room.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

In order to know how to balance colors, you should have a general idea of where they are in relation to one another on the wheel. Typically, complementary colors—colors found on polar opposite ends of the wheel—coordinate well with one another. Since complementary colors are effectively opposites, they play off of one another in order to make one another "pop" or stand out. Examples of complimentary colors include; red and green, orange and blue, or yellow and violet. Due to the vibrant nature of complementary colors, you may want to consider using muted shades of the colors you favor. Bright shades of complementary colors have a tendency to assault the eyes, but muted shades can add a pleasant buzz of energy to your living room. If you feel uncertain about how a prospective color scheme might look, look at paint cards, swatches of fabric, or other color samples side by side. Bring swatches and paint cards home to your living room, and hold them up in the spaces you’re considering using them.  Take advantage of this mini test run before you invest time and money in paint and furnishings. Paint cards are readily available at both hardware stores and paint suppliers, while fabric swatches can be found at furniture stores. Either can be sent directly to your home by manufacturers. Instead of trying to create a living room that looks impressive, create a living room that feels comfortable. It’s your living room after all, and should be decorated according to what you like. Further, the more comfortable you feel in it, the happier you’ll be showing it off. Go with your gut. If a certain color makes you feel happy or peaceful, use it! If you’re having trouble deciding on a color scheme, look no further than the objects you intend to keep in the room. Prominent pieces of art or furniture can greatly complement (and be complemented by) the color scheme you choose. Planning for what you intend to have in the room will also ensure that your color scheme coordinates with the most noticeable pieces in your living room. ...


Familiarize yourself with the common characteristics of the victim. Look for evidence of physical abuse. Take note of ill-fitting or inappropriate clothing. Check for tattoos of bar codes or men’s names.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Victims of human trafficking are almost always female, typically children, pre-teens, or young adults. They are usually found alone or in the company of another individual or small group. The people surrounding them are most often men, and may appear much older than the victim. There's no rulebook when it comes to human trafficking. Victims may be of any sex, age, ethnicity, or social status. Bruises, cuts, and burn marks may be clues that the victim has been hurt by their captor. These marks are especially telling when found around the wrists, ankles, arms, and neck, as they suggest that the victim has been controlled or restrained by force. An isolated bump or cut might just be an accident—multiple injuries grouped in the same area can point to a much more serious cause.  Thin, red lines criss-crossing the wrists and ankles are often left behind when a victim has been tied up. Malnourishment or a dirty or unkempt appearance could be due to neglect, even if there are no visible signs of harm.  You might feel pretty scared if you have reason to think you've come into contact with a victim of human trafficking, but by being alert and attentive, you have the potential to help save a life. The garments worn by the suspected victim may be too big or small for them, or seem overtly sexual. This is often because they’ve been given to them by the traffickers. Mismatched accessories like scarves, long sleeves, and sunglasses may also be used to make the victim unrecognizable or hide signs of abuse.  Children and young teenagers wearing suggestive or revealing items, such as low-cut tops, short skirts or shorts, or plainly visible undergarments, may be facing exploitation as sex workers. When traveling, determine whether the person’s style of dress matches their intended destination. A child on a flight to a country with a cold climate wearing only a tank top, shorts, and cheap flip-flops may not have chosen those clothes for themselves. Traffickers often use tattoos to mark their property. A bar code symbol or dollar...


Familiarize yourself with the game board. Choose your starting triangles. Place your pegs in the peg holes. Flip a coin to determine who goes first.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The shape of the board is a six-pointed star, and each point has ten “peg” (or marble) holes inside of it. The inner hexagon of the board is also filled with peg holes, and each side of the hexagon has five peg holes along it. With most Chinese Checkers boards, each triangular point has a different color. There are also six sets of ten pegs (or marbles), and each colored set corresponds to a colored point. The triangles you use will depend on the number of players you have. You can play the game with two, three, four, or six players.  If playing with two or four players, use pairs of opposing triangles. If playing with three players, use every other triangle. If playing with six players, use all six triangles. Use the ten pegs that correspond to the color of your triangle. Not all Chinese Checkers boards have color-coded triangles, however. In this case, you can choose any colored set of pegs you wish.  While most games are traditionally played with ten pegs regardless of how many players you have, if desired, you can vary the number of pegs based on the number of players. For example, a full six-player game would use ten pegs, while each player in a four-player game would use 13, and each player in a two-person game would use 19 pegs. Flip a coin into the air and predict if the coin will land on "heads" or "tails." Let everyone have one turn, and if there are several people who got it right, let them have another turn. Whichever player guesses correctly the greatest number of times is chosen to be the starting player. You could also use other "luck of the draw" methods to determine who starts. For instance, you could draw straws or play a game of rock-paper-scissors.


Familiarize yourself with the job details. Groom a dog. Volunteer at an animal shelter. Work as a grooming assistant.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Dog groomers don't just blissfully brush the fur of contented dogs and add pretty little bows; it is a physical, dirty, challenging, but often rewarding job.  For a typical canine client, the job is likely to approximate the following steps:  Determine the styling plan with the owner. Place the dog on a table and examine it generally for skin problems or other health issues (see more on this in a later step, below). Brush the dog's fur, clean its ears and perhaps eyes, and trim its nails. Bathe the dog, and be prepared to deal with animals that may not enjoy the process. Dry the dog's fur and brush it again. Give the dog its haircut and style, with special care around the face, paws, and tail area. Repeat with the next dog, and so on, all day.  Expect to work evenings and weekends in order to meet clients' needs. Yes, it seems unlikely that someone who has never bathed and groomed a dog before would choose to enter this field, but getting your hands dirty (literally) is a vital step in deciding whether this is the job for you.  As a prospective dog groomer, you probably own a dog or at least know someone who does.  Try your hand at grooming.  Visit How to Groom a Dog for more step-by-step instructions. Don’t give up just because you end up soaking wet and your dog has an unintended half-mohawk, but do consider whether you have the patience and passion to do this task over and again with new dogs every day. If you want experience dealing with a wide variety of dogs, an animal shelter is an ideal choice.  And most if not all shelters are in need of volunteers.  You may have the opportunity to bathe and groom dogs, which of course will be a good experience that can help you determine if you want to pursue this line of work. Even without bathing and grooming, however, dealing with a diversity of dog breeds, from a wide variety of backgrounds, will give you a better sense of the day-to-day challenges and rewards of being a dog groomer. Soak up advice and techniques on how to deal with aggressive, large, or sick...


Familiarize yourself with the manufacturer's instructions. Insert the test stick into the test holder. Urinate on the tip or dip the tip into a clean container of urine. Remove your test from the urine, holding the tip downward. Watch the digital interface for your result. Consult your directions regarding any error messages. Eject your test stick from the test holder.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Read the manufacturer's instructions to acquaint yourself with your specific digital test. The directions will describe how long to dip your test stick, any instructive symbols on the interface, and how to interpret your test results. When in doubt, defer to the manufacturer's instructions over these directions, which are suited to some digital tests but not all. Remove a test stick from its foil wrapper, and take off the cap. Insert the stick into the test holder with the absorbent tip facing outward. Typically there is a beep or a “test ready” symbol on the interface to alert you that you've done this properly.  Refer to the manual that comes with your test to confirm that the test stick is properly inserted into the test holder. The test stick will remain in the holder during testing. Choose whichever method of urine collection makes you feel the most comfortable. If you choose to urinate on the test tip directly, insert the tip into your urine midstream and hold it there for the number of seconds indicated in your product directions. (Typically between 5-7 seconds.)  If you want to urinate into a clean cup instead, catch your urine midstream. Dip just the absorbent tip of the test stick in your urine for the amount of time noted in the product directions. Note that often you will need to dip your tester into the urine for a longer amount of time than if you were peeing on the tip directly. (Typically between 15-20 seconds.)  Do your best not to wet the digital test holder as you urinate. Keep the absorbent tip facing downward, and replace the test stick's cap. Lay your test on a flat, dry surface that's clean and nonabsorbent. Avoid holding your wetted test with the absorbent tip facing upward, which can invalidate your results.  Typically tests have a symbol on the interface to let you know the test is working. Sometimes it's the “test ready” symbol flashing or another icon. Check your product directions to confirm. This icon that confirms the test is underway will usually appear within 20-40 seconds....


Familiarize yourself with the requirements needed for naturalization. Determine whether you've lived in Ireland long enough. Make sure you meet the standards meant by "good character". Apply for naturalization.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Naturalization is the method through which a non-Irish citizen can get Irish citizenship. There are a number of requirements you must meet before you can apply. Those include:  Be of legal age (18). Children can be naturalized through a different form if they are the children of an Irish citizen. Be of good character. Be a resident of Ireland for the required amount of time. Make a declaration of loyalty. (This is done at the naturalization ceremony after your application is accepted.) To be naturalized, you must have been living in Ireland legally for at least a year before the date of application. You must also have been a resident for at least 4 years in the past 9 years prior to the application. Residency is proved via the dates on the stamps on your passport. You get those stamps when you register for residency with the Immigration Bureau. Good character means respect for the laws of the state. When you apply for citizenship you must provide information about your criminal record and offenses committed both inside and outside of Ireland. Everything down to traffic tickets will be evaluated. A background check will be conducted after you submit your application. Application forms can be found here: http://www.inis.gov.ie/en/INIS/Pages/Citizenship%20Application%20Forms. You must mail the application form to the address listed on the same webpage. A background check will be conducted and an assessment of your financial status will be conducted. These processes may take a good amount of time. Eventually, the form will be sent to the Minister for Justice and Equality, who has absolute discretion on the applications approval or disapproval. If the application is approved, you'll be sent a letter telling you so, with instructions on final procedures. After you submit the final documentation and fee, you'll be invited to a ceremony. At the ceremony you'll receive your certificate of naturalization.


Familiarize yourself with the requirements of your state for becoming a teacher. Take the certification exam in the state where you want to be a teacher. Look for jobs as a teacher. Prepare your application. Sign up to substitute teach if you are not hired as a regular teacher.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

To begin, most require a B.A. in education with some focus on health, while others provide more leeway in your choice of major. Almost all states have professional development requirements that you are expected to complete in your first years as a teacher. All states have different requirements, so be familiar with what your state wants. Study hard for these exams -- they are what will allow you to become a certified teacher. Get a sense of what different districts want. Since health teachers typically teach other things as well, determine whether you are prepared to apply for these positions. Your ability to get a job immediately after becoming certified will depend upon the state or region in which you live. Most states will ask for a typical resume -- make sure yours is strong. Some larger districts might also ask for extra essay questions that deal with your philosophy of teaching or why you wanted to become a teacher. Substitute teaching can allow you to get a variety of experiences as you continue to look for full-time positions. Make contact with teachers in different districts as you go through the job search.


Familiarize yourself with the symptoms of depression. Talk to your parent. Encourage your parent to seek therapy. Engage in family therapy. Spend time with your parent. Go outdoors with your parent. Show that you love your parent. Harness the power of human touch. Talk to your younger siblings about what's going on. Know what to do if you parent can no longer take care of themselves or children in the house. Recognize suicidal behaviors. Be prepared to act if you think your parent is in danger.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

You may notice that your parent has disengaged from activities that were previously enjoyable. Your parent may seem sad, hopeless, or act helpless. You may notice changes in weight (putting on weight or losing weight) or changes in sleep (sleeping very often or not sleeping enough).  Your parent may have different behavior, such as feeling more irritable, aggressive, or short-tempered than usual. Your parent may lack energy and may appear exhausted much of the time. Watch out for increases in alcohol consumption or drug use. If your parent has changed habits with alcohol or drugs (including prescription medications and sleeping pills), this may be related to depression. Depression is not contagious and you cannot catch it. It can be scary to bring up the topic of depression, especially when it’s with your parent. If you are concerned and feel like things will not get better, it’s okay to start a conversation about depression. Approach your parent from a place of concern and care. Remind your parent how important he is to you, and that you want to see him happy.   Say, “I’m concerned about you and your health. Have things changed? How are you doing?” You can also say, “I’ve noticed things have changed, and you seem sadder than usual. Is everything okay?” If your parent says something about how they "don't want to be here anymore," you should seek help right away. After you’ve had a heartfelt discussion with your parent, urge them to find a therapist. It’s important to understand that you are not responsible for your parent’s thoughts, emotions, and behavior, especially related to depression. Encourage your parent to see a therapist. Therapy can help reframe negative thought patterns, identify triggers, practice coping skills, and practice preventative measures to reduce symptoms of depression in the future. Say to your parent, “I want to see you healthy and happy, and I think a therapist could help you with that. Would you consider reaching out to a therapist?” While individual therapy can help the individual...


Familiarize yourself with the types of stress-related hair loss. See a doctor to confirm a diagnosis. Realize that hair will usually grow back on its own.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

There are three main types of stress-related hair loss as follows:   Telogen effluvium: With telogen effluvium, stress may send a number of hair follicles into a resting phase, stopping the hair from growing. Several months later, the hair attached to the affected follicles may start to fall out suddenly, in greater volume than normal. This is possibly the most common type of stress-related hair loss.  Alopecia areata: With alopecia areata, the immune system turns on the hair follicles and causes hair to fall out, sometimes in large chunks. There may be several factors causing this type of hair loss, and stress is suspected to be one of them.  Trichotillomania: This condition is very different than the previous two, as it involves a person compulsively pulling out their own hair from their head, their eyebrows, or other areas of their body. A person usually develops this condition as a method of coping with stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or boredom. With each type of hair loss, the exact link between the hair loss and stress is somewhat unclear.  While stress will sometimes cause the hair loss directly, other times, the stress makes an existing condition worse. In some cases, the hair loss will cause the stress, rather than the other way around. Although most instances of hair loss will not require any significant medical attention, in some cases the hair loss is not the result of stress (as you might believe), but is in fact a symptom of a more serious underlying issue. Therefore, it important that you see your doctor rather than self-diagnosing. Some of the more serious conditions which can lead to hair loss include hypothyroidism, autoimmune diseases such as lupus and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). With hypothyroidism and PCOS there are treatment options available which can help hair to grow back. However, with autoimmune related hair loss, the loss is often permanent. If hair loss is indeed caused by stress, the major focus of treatment should be on minimizing or eliminating that stress. ...


Familiarize yourself with what students are expected to learn about body parts during preschool.

Familiarize yourself with your library. Find a tutor. Enroll in a class. Purchase a Spanish language app. Listen to radio programs, podcasts, or audiobooks.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Inquire if your library offers learning programs or if there is a local Spanish language club. You may also ask for help finding the best books and resources to learn how to speak Spanish. Also check out the bulletin board in case tutors or teachers are offering their services. While your local library may be small and not have the resources that you are looking for, they may be able to order books and point you in the direction of other local resources available to you. Create a budget and post or search online on job forums or college websites for an adequate tutor. You may also physically visit schools to check bulletin boards. Inquire about Spanish departments as most of the tutors would post in that area of the college. You may also find a tutor by offering to tutor English in exchange for Spanish lessons. This can keep your costs down. Depending on the institution, classes can be expensive. Set a budget and a goal and make sure that the classes you take meet your standards. Read reviews and the course syllabus before fully committing to anything. You may also find classes online if you live far from any suitable institutions. Choose from a multitude of free or purchased apps for download onto your home or mobile device. Make sure to research and read reviews to ensure that the apps has the functions that you are looking for such as creating flashcards or visual aids. Flashcards are a great way to memorize vocabulary and apps can be searched for Windows, Apple, or Android devices. Stream Spanish radio, search for language tutorial podcasts, or borrow audiobooks from the library. Make sure to research whether the tutorials are at an appropriate level. Podcasts may have a rating system that you can use prior to download.


Familiarize yourself with your local laws. Scope out the dumpsters in your area. Know what sorts of items to look for. Prepare yourself mentally.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Before you jump in headfirst, it will be worth knowing the legal risks you face for reclaiming waste items from public containers. In most places, trash is not considered private property, so it’s unlikely that you’ll be charged with theft. However, it’s possible for dumpster divers to be targeted for other offenses, such as invasion of privacy, trespassing or vagrancy.  Dumpster diving is generally frowned upon in polite society, even in places where it’s technically legal. If there are fences, locks or “No Trespassing” signs on the premises, consider yourself warned. It may be wise to stay away from locations under tight scrutiny. As most people already know, you can typically find trash receptacles outside of major businesses, but you might also expand your hunting radius to include urban neighborhoods, schools, churches and public locations like parks and beaches. To avoid detection, look for dumpsters that aren’t in plain sight.  Look up the trash pickup times in your city so you can have a chance to go through a promising receptacle before it’s emptied.  Plan your runs for the early morning or evening hours when most people are occupied. Public trash disposal sites often contain a wealth of treasures just waiting to be claimed. Thrifty divers have been known to uncover designer clothing, valuable scrap materials and even expensive out-of-date electronics in the refuse of high-end establishments. Having a basic idea of what's out there and where you're likely to find it will help you focus your search.  If you’re looking for a specific type of find, the smartest place to look is at the source. For example, you’ll have a much better chance stumbling upon unused beauty products behind a cosmetics boutique, or turning up small electronics at an office supply store.  Keep an eye out for old, unwanted furniture and appliances near dumpsters in residential areas. Willing yourself to climb into a hot, smelly dumpster isn’t always easy since most people have an aversion to objects like garbage that they find...


Familiarize yourself with your local sex education requirements. Make sure teaching sex education is possible in your situation. Understand the different approaches to sex education. Plan your own lessons or curriculum.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Every school, state, province, or country will have its own set of requirements on how sex education can be taught. In most cases, if you are a professional educator, you will most likely be required to follow a certain curriculum provided for you. For example:  In the United States, the U.S, Department of Health & Human Service identifies 28 evidence-based curriculums that are eligible to be taught. Your school or program may provide you materials and information from these curriculums. The Public Health Agency of Canada provides Canadian Guidelines for Sexual Health Education. It is a guide that provides specific curricula and teaching strategies to teach sex education. Canadian sex education teaches key concepts like health, health promotion, health education, sexuality, sexual health, and sexual rights.  In the United Kingdom, sex education is compulsory after age 11, and focuses on teaching children about reproduction, sexuality, and sexual health. Sex and relationship education (SRE) is part of the national curriculum and is based on the Personal, Social, and Health Education (PSHE) framework of knowledge. Guidelines can be found on the UK government website. In some countries, cultures, religions, and schools, sex education for children is not compulsory or mandatory. In these situations, teaching sex education to children can be difficult for many reasons. For example, sex education might not be welcomed and you may run into roadblocks before you are allowed to teach it. Before teaching sex education, you may have to:   Speak to local officials about implementing sex education in your area. This might mean speaking to schools, your community, or members of your government. Prepare resources and evidence that sex education is needed. Join an organization or group that advocates for the implementation of sex education for the community. Plan your own sex education curriculum. You may be able to teach sex education but there are little resources available to you that provide tested and reputable sex...


Familiarize yourself with your school’s rules. Defend yourself when you haven’t broken any rules or a teacher is being unfair. Notify another adult immediately if a teacher behaves inappropriately.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Read through your school’s student handbook if you’re curious about what you’re allowed to bring to have at school. Knowing the rules will also help you deal with a teacher that has threatened to take something away from you. Stated most simply: the easiest way to avoid having a teacher take your things away is to avoid breaking the rules that may cause them to do so! In the event a teacher may have done or threatened something without your breaking any rules, point out that you haven’t broken any rules.  This will only work if you know the rules.  Alternatively, if you broke a minor rule that does not warrant they take your item, you can calmly point this out and say something like, “I’m sorry for the distraction, I’ll put this away right now and it won’t be an issue again.” If you refuse to give up a possession, know that your teacher cannot forcibly take anything from you. However, refusal to turn in an item with which you were breaking a rule may lead to further punishment down the line. You must obey the rules when you’re at school. A teacher must also enforce the school’s rules. However, if a teacher ever does anything that you believe they may not be allowed to do, tell someone right away.  Your teacher’s actions must also follow the school’s rules, and must be based on safety and education. A teacher can never use force against you or another student. A teacher cannot break any of your possessions. If a school official does not respond to your claims, ask to call a parent or guardian immediately. If the school does not allow you to make a call, tell an adult you trust – whether another teacher or a parent or guardian – everything that occurred as soon as possible. Talk to an older sibling or an adult family member if you’re unsure about how something that happened and don’t know whether you should tell others.


Fan out your fingers. Extend and clench your fingers. Do a thumbs-up stretch. Stretch your thumb under your hand. Use rubber bands for a resistance exercise.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you have been diagnosed with carpal tunnel, exercise alone are not likely to significantly relieve symptoms, and they don’t replace other treatments. You may find that stretches help to lessen pain and tension to some degree if your symptoms are not too severe. You can extend and clench all your fingers to loosen ligaments in your wrist. Loosening your ligaments can help relieve tension within your carpal tunnel.  With your arms relaxed at your sides, stretch out your fingers far apart. Hold this stretch for five seconds. Relax your hands and fingers, and then repeat the stretch. Repeat this exercise four times. Standing, extend both arms forward with palms facing downwards, parallel to the floor. Extend fingers upwards as if making a "stop" sign, and hold for five seconds.  Relax your fingers downwards so they are once again parallel to the floor. Squeeze your fingers into a tight fist and hold for five seconds. Unclench your fist. Then bend the wrists down towards the floor for another five seconds. Straighten both wrists and relax the fingers. Repeat this exercise 10 times, and then hang your arms loosely at your side and shake them out a little. Close all your fingers, keeping the thumb out and pointed up. Create some resistance with your hand and wrist to keep your thumb from moving. Then grab your thumb with your free hand, and gently pull it back.  Hold it under tension for around five seconds. Release and repeat five to 10 times for each hand. Another way to stretch your thumb starts with you holding your hand out flat in front of you. Fan out your fingers and ensure that your palm is facing the floor.   Bend your thumb under your palm and try to touch the base of your smallest finger. Count to five, then release. Repeat for 10 times with each hand. Resist rubber bands to build strength in your flexor tendons. Place small rubber bands over all five fingers, then try to flex your fingers open to work the flexor tendons at your carpal tunnel.  You can double the band to reduce its size and add more...


Fast and abstain. Take something on. Have a seder meal. Promote a communal almsgiving project.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

All Catholics aged fourteen and older are asked to abstain from meat on Lenten Fridays, though fish is allowed to be eaten.  Additionally, Catholics aged 18-59 are obliged to fast on Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, and all Lenten Fridays, meaning that only one full meal may be eaten in the day. Of course, do this however you feel is safe and effective.  Some people should definitely not fast (the pregnant or the elderly, for example). If fasting isn't a reasonable option for you, fast from something other than food. Make sure it's something that's a challenge -- like your phone or email -- so you can feel the sacrifice you're making.     Fasting is by and large becoming more voluntary than anything. Way back in 1966, Pope Paul VI made fasting only mandatory on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday -- everything else is at your discretion.    While many people choose to give harmful things up for Lent, you could use the season to help you build good habits. You could promise to be more patient and kind toward your neighbor, or you could vow to help the needy.  Whether you choose to sacrifice or to adopt new, strengthening habits, you should allow your Lenten promises to help you grow in faith and virtue. In addition to bettering your own life, take this time to build habits that better the lives of others. Volunteer at a hospital or shelter, or simply get more active in your church by offering to greet, read, or take care of the offerings.    Though some see it as largely a Jewish tradition, that is not the case! On Holy (or Maundy) Thursday, many Catholics have a seder meal, commemorating the Last Supper of Jesus -- the very last day of Lent. You eat the "meal" in silence, reflecting on your Lenten experiences with unleavened bread and wine (or grape juice). How has this Lent changed you? If you'd like to get a little historical with it, try including matzah (unleavened bread), maror (horseradish root), egg, or haroset (apple, spice, and red wine mixture) as part of your meal.     Many communities choose to partake in...


Fasten any large items securely to the walls and floor. Install shatter-safe window films to protect from breaking glass. Place breakable items in closed cabinets that have latches. Remove or secure hanging objects from above seating and sleeping areas. Check that your house is up-to-date with earthquake protections. Work with your community to prepare for earthquakes together.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

There are a number of specific hazards in your home that you can deal with before an earthquake occurs. The biggest danger is actually from falling objects inside your house. Luckily, these sorts of injuries can be prevented with some forethought:  Fasten all shelves securely to the walls.  Use brackets to attach wall units, bookcases, and other tall furniture to wall studs. Standard steel brackets are fine and easy to apply. Place large, heavy objects on lower shelves or on the floor. They might fall during an earthquake and the less distance they have to fall, the better. You can also screw objects onto things, such as a desk.  Use non-slip mats to prevent objects with a low center of gravity from sliding. For example, fish bowls, vases, floral arrangements, statues, etc. Use an invisible nylon cord to secure tall, heavy items that can topple over to the wall. Place an eye screw in the wall, and tie the thread around the object (such as a vase) and then tie it to the eye screw. In a last-minute pinch, placing masking tape across the diagonals (in an "X") of your windows can keep them from shattering. Most earthquake prone areas will already require these windows, but you should check to make sure. Lock or latch them up so that the cabinet doors cannot fly open. Use poster tack/plastic putty to keep ornaments, figurines, and glassware adhered to shelves and mantelpieces. There are even special commercial quake putties available, allowing you to secure objects in place securely. Heavy pictures, light fixtures, and mirrors should be hung away from beds, couches, and anywhere that someone might sit. Conventional picture hooks will not hold pictures during an earthquake, but they are easy to fix - simply push the hook closed, or use a filler material to fill the gap between the hook and its backing. Other alternatives include buying special art hooks and ensuring that heavy paintings have adequate, strong hooks and cord. A landlord or your local zoning board can help you determine this. If you have any deep...


Fasten oxygen and acetylene cylinders in an upright position. Clean the valve outlet of accumulated dust or dirt. Connect the oxygen and acetylene regulators to their cylinders. Tighten the nuts of the regulator connections with a wrench. Rotate the pressure-adjusting screw to the left until it turns freely. Open the oxygen and the acetylene valves very slowly. Leave the wrench on the acetylene valve while it is open.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you have a cylinder cart, place both the oxygen and acetylene cylinders into it. If not, they should be securely fastened with a chain to a workbench, a wall, or a post. Cylinders should not be able to be knocked or pulled over. Cylinders should only be used and stored in the vertical position. Stand so the outlet is facing away from your body and open the valve a 1/4 turn, very quickly, and then close it. This will clear out any dust or dirt that may have settled in the valve. It needs to be cleaned out otherwise the debris might get into other parts of the torch and cause it to malfunction. Warning: never clear a fuel gas cylinder near other welding work that is in progress or near sparks or flames. The regulators let you see how much pressure you’re using while working and are essential to safely starting and operating an oxy acetylene torch. If the regulator and cylinder have different threads (meaning they don’t fit into each other), you will need to use an adaptor, which can be purchased at any local hardware store. Don’t assume because you have turned the nut as far as you can with your hand that it is tight enough. Use a wrench with a fixed opening (rather than an adjustable wrench) that is designed specifically for welding tools. You can buy these from a hardware store or a specific apparatus supplier. If you ever need to make an adjustment after the cylinder has been opened and used, make sure to close the cylinder valve before tightening the nut again. Do this for each regulator. The valve in the regulator needs to be closed before cylinder pressure is admitted. Turning the pressure-adjusting screw counter-clockwise removes the pressure from the spring in the regulator. When the screw turns freely, you should be able to just tap it with your finger and see it move, rather than having to apply pressure. Make sure you can see the cylinder-pressure gauges, but don’t stand directly in front of the valves. Open the valves slowly to protect yourself and your machine from any potential combustion. ...


Fearlessly face failure. Watch and listen closely. Give special attention to the little details. Trust yourself. Say "yes" to nearly everything. Contribute. Commit with confidence.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Failure is inevitable. If you live your life being afraid to fail, you won't move forward and you won't be able to make the most of each mistake you're confronted with.  Each mistake doubles as an opportunity, so think of failure as an essential part of growing stronger and smarter. When you fail, reflect on what happened and figure out how to avoid the same sort of difficulty in the future.  As you let go of fear, you'll also become more confident and more skilled at adapting to the unexpected. Before you can react to something, you will need to have a good understanding of what you're reacting to. When considering someone's words and actions, though, you need to look at the deeper meaning as well as the surface meaning.  Resist the temptation to multitask. The vast majority of people don't actually multitask well, so focusing on one task at a time will keep you more focused and improve your understanding.  Maintain eye contact when talking with people to let them know that you're actively engaged in conversation. Eye contact also allows you to read nonverbal communication more effectively. Try to empathize with the people you're around in any situation. Put yourself in their shoes so that you can understand their needs and wants, and react accordingly. While it's true that grand gestures can leave lasting impressions, remembering and using the little details of everyday life can actually impress people more.  Little details, like the names of a coworker's children or beloved pet, are easy to miss when you're fixated on big plans. Most people tend to ignore them completely unless they really care about someone. By taking the time to acknowledge these details, you show others that you care about them and leave a more favorable impression with those people. Leaving good impressions with the people around you can help propel you forward and open up the door to new opportunities you couldn't find on your own. Your past and current experiences have informed you and shaped you into the person you are today. It can...


Feed Don't over feed your goldfish. Clean the fish tank monthly. Test your aquarium water weekly. Adjust the pH of the water, if necessary. Reduce the nitrates and ammonia in the water. Treat

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

your goldfish daily. Goldfish don’t need a lot of food but they do need some every day. If you just have 1 goldfish, a tiny pinch of fish food flakes 2-3 times a day will suffice. If you have more than once goldfish, you will need to add more flakes to the tank. In general, only feed your goldfish as much food as they can consume in 2-3 minutes. If food remains on the surface after that point, try to give them less next feeding time. No matter how much they beg, resist the urge to feed your fish more that 2-3 times a day. Goldfish will eat a lot more than they should, so it’s your job to keep them healthy and not overfed. Overfeeding a goldfish can make them unwell but it can also contaminate the tank with excess organic material. This will make your tank dirtier faster and will make the water less healthy for the fish. In order for a goldfish to remain happy and healthy, it needs to live in clean water. To do this, remove your fish and put them in a holding tank. Next take a quarter of the water out of the tank. Remove all items from the tank and rinse them in clean water. Scrub the sides of the tank and use a gravel vacuum to clean the gravel at the bottom. Finally, put everything back in the tank and add enough new water to fill up the rest of the tank.  Once the tank is full again, add chemicals to neutralize any chlorine that might be in the water you added. Never wash decorations or equipment with cleaner that isn’t marked as aquarium safe. Residue will likely remain on the surface, even after a thorough rinsing, which can potentially kill your fish. Use an aquarium test kit to check the pH, nitrate, and ammonia levels in your tank. These kits are available at all pet and aquarium stores. Follow the directions in the kit, which usually includes taking a small sample of the water from the tank, adding a specific amount of testing solution to it and then looking for a change in color. Most aquarium test kits test the pH, nitrate, and ammonia levels all in one test. The color of your results will tell you...


Feed Eidolons with Crest Stats. Stop feeding Crests when you’ve reached the cap.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Unlike players where you get to distribute your free stats, Eidolons have to be fed with certain Crest to increase specific stats. Crest stats are useful in strengthening your Eidolon, and each Eidolon has their own main stat base.  Crest of Flame will give DMG 3–6 if fed to Eidolon Crest of Ice gives DEF 1–3 Crest of Wind gives SPD 1–3 Crest of Thunder gives CRIT 1–3 Symbol of Sand gives HP 5–10 Symbol of Forest gives EVA 1–3 Symbol of Darkness gives DMG 1–4, CRIT 1–2 Symbol of Light gives HP 2–6, DEF 1–2 Note that Crests are consumable items and cannot be reused. Eidolon have stat caps as well, like everybody else, so make sure to know the max stat to avoid wasting Crests.  DMG (750) CRIT (250) SPD (250) HP (1250) DEF (250) EVA (250).


Feed Scrub algae off the tank walls every other week. Test Vacuum the gravel with a siphon at least twice a month.  from 15-25% of the tank water every1-2 weeks. Refill the tank with warm, dechlorinated water. Rinse the filter every month and replace it when it gets dirty.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

fish a little bit of food twice a day. The amount of food you need to add depends on the size of your fish and how many of them you have. Start out with small amounts of food so you don’t overfeed them. Fish generally need about 3 to 5 fish food pellets or a similar amount of fish flakes. Feed the fish at the same time every day.  Overfeeding is a serious problem that harms fish. Fish generally eat themselves sick. Any food they miss ends up rotting in the tank, leading to problems like algae growth. Read about the dietary needs of the species you keep. Each species is different. Get an algae brush, sponge, or scraper from a pet supply store. Scrubbers have a rough pad for brushing off algae and a sharper edge for scraping off stubborn remnants. Work from the bottom up, letting the algae fall to the tank floor, then vacuum it up with an aquarium siphon. Algae consumes oxygen that your fish and aquarium plants need to survive, so remove green spots as soon as you see them forming.  Some places also sell algae magnets. To use the magnet, you hold it against the outside surface of the aquarium, then vacuum up the algae like usual. Another way to deal with algae is by keeping a snail or algae-eating fish in the tank. the water pH and makeup at least once a month. Purchase a water testing kit designed for aquariums. Testing strips are the easiest to use since all you have to do is dunk the testing strip into the aquarium water. Other tests require you to take water samples, then mix it with a drop of the included dye. Follow the testing instructions to ensure the environment is right for your fish friends.   Freshwater fish prefer a pH level between 5.5 and 7.5. Saltwater fish need a pH level over 8.0. Each species of fish has different needs, so do some research online to find the perfect level. Ideally, the water will have 0 ammonia, 0 nitrite, and 5 to 10 parts per million of nitrate. If you have saltwater fish, make sure your kit tests for water salinity. The ideal level is 35 parts per thousand. Fish tank...


Feed adult birds only if necessary. Find appropriate food for baby birds. Use a syringe for unfeathered baby birds. Feed often. Wean them off the syringe once they start moving around.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

With adults, it is advised that you do not feed the bird at all, especially if you are uncertain of its species or its dietary requirements. Furthermore, if injured, it may not be able to handle solid foods. If you must feed the bird and are absolutely positive that it can handle solid foods, be sure to locate the appropriate food for their species. Consult a vet or wild bird center for advice.  Insect eaters can be fed mealworms or small crickets but not thick worms (like earthworms) or ants. Seed eaters can be fed a fortified mix, such as a fortified cockatiel seed mix. Fruit eaters can be fed berries or diced fruits. Be sure to cut it up for them. Nestlings require soft foods. In the wild, chicks would be fed regurgitated foods by their parent. You can replicate this by feeding the bird wet canned dog or cat food. You can also soak dry dog or cat food in water to make it mushy.  Baby bird formula may be available at your local pet store. Do not feed your chick birdseed, sugar water, or bread. These are extremely unhealthy for baby birds and may result in the chick becoming malnourished. Nestlings will need to be fed with a syringe. Feeding syringes can be found at your local pet store or at a drug store in the baby section.  Fill the syringe with wet canned dog, cat, or jars of mushy baby food (preferably fruit). Make sure not to shove the eye dropper down the chick's throat. It could choke them. If you cannot find a feeding syringe, you can also use a toothpick. Skewer the food on the pick. Be careful not to stab the chick as you feed it. Baby birds will eat every fifteen to twenty minutes from dawn to dusk. When hungry, they should call for you with an open mouth. Do not feed them until they exhibit this behavior. At night, the baby birds may not call for food; this is normal. That said, if you have a bird under a week old, it may call for food every few hours in the night. You may feed the bird again if this happens.  The bird’s crop (or bottom of their throat) may expand as they eat. This is normal. As...


Feed and play with your cat near the scratching post. Use catnip and toys to make the scratching post look and smell appealing. Move your cat to the post when it scratches the couch. Reward your cat for scratching on the scratching post.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When you feed and play with your cat in the vicinity of the scratching post, your cat will develop pleasurable associations with the post. Eventually, curiosity will overtake your cat and it will likely want to explore the post and start scratching on it.  Your cat will become more comfortable and familiar with the post by spending more time around it. This is especially important if you have a cat that is naturally shy or fearful of new things. Play with your cat every day to help it release pent-up energy. Sometimes cats scratch out of boredom. If your cat enjoys catnip, try sprinkling some dried catnip leaves or powder around and on the scratching post. The catnip will attract your cat, and it will likely start scratching at the post to get the catnip. Place items that are familiar to your cat around the scratching post. This will encourage your cat to start thinking of the post as one of its things. If you see your cat scratching the couch, immediately pick it up and move it to the post. This redirects the cat's natural behavior to an appropriate scratching target. If you find you have to redirect often, it's a good idea to have the scratching post as close to the couch as possible. Your cat will likely resist being carried any distance to another location. When your cat gets to the point that it seldom scratches the couch, you can relocate the scratching post if you want. Whenever you see your cat using the scratching post, immediately give it a treat or an encouraging pet. This positive reinforcement helps teach your cat that the scratching post is an appropriate place for scratching. As the behavior becomes more frequent, don't reward your cat every time it uses the post. Reward randomly so your cat doesn't only use the post with the expectation of a treat.


Feed baby tarantulas often. Feed adult tarantulas less frequently. Remove uneaten food. Do not feed a molting tarantula. Make adjustments when necessary.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Offer appropriately-sized portions of food to young tarantulas once or twice a week. Underfeeding could cause your spiderling to dehydrate and die. Some tarantula owners feed baby tarantulas every day to encourage growth. It is not known whether spiderlings are harmed by over-feeding, but this practice can harm other similar animals. Your fully grown spider will likely accept prey every 10-14 days. It is not uncommon, however, for a spider to abstain from eating for a full month after a large meal. Tarantulas will keep eating until they are full. They will abstain from eating when they are soon to molt, or preparing to lay eggs. Clear leftovers from the cage within 24 hours of serving. This includes live insects as well as half-eaten insect parts, such as the bolus. Leaving insect corpses in a cage is unsanitary, as it attracts pests and mold. Leaving live insects in the cage will cause your tarantula stress. Try feeding your spider at night, and cleaning out the remains in the morning. A freshly molted baby tarantula does not need to be fed for several days. An adult tarantula that has just molted will not eat for two weeks. Be sure to remove prey from the cage of a recently molted tarantula for at least three days, as the tarantula's skin will still be soft and vulnerable enough for a cricket to harm it.  Your tarantula will probably stop eating prey a few weeks before it molts. You can tell your tarantula has molted because it will lie on its back for 15 minutes to several hours. It may have webbing on its body, clear drops of fluid seeping from its legs, or a bald spot on its abdomen. It will then emerge from its old skin, possibly with a regenerated limb or two. Tarantulas are generally good at self-regulating their meals. However, tarantulas that don't eat enough suffer malnutrition, and adult tarantulas are sometimes capable of overeating, so keep an eye on your tarantula's abdomen. If the abdomen is shriveled, it means your tarantula is underfed and dehydrated. If the abdomen is so large your...


Feed bettas appropriate food. Do not overfeed your betta. Clean leftover food out of the tank. Make your fish fast once a week.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Purchase pellets that are made from fishmeal or shrimp meal. Occasionally supplement with a piece of blanched pea once per week or fruit flies with wings attached. A betta’s stomach is about the size of its eyeball, so feed it about that amount twice per day. That translates to approximately 2 or 3 pellets per feeding.  Let pellets soak in water 10 minutes before feeding. This will prevent them from swelling up inside your fish’s stomach.  If your fish has a rounded belly, you may be feeding it too much. If its belly looks a little caved in, then you might not be feeding it enough. Uneaten food becomes toxic in the water, contributing to the growth of bacteria and ammonia levels. Bacteria in the tank will in turn start attacking your fish. If your fish seems to have trouble digesting food or seems constipated, you can give it a rest by not feeding it once a week. This will not harm the fish and will allow the fish to work through some of the food already in its system.


Feed geese leafy greens. Feed geese other acceptable foods. Do not feed geese processed foods. Do not feed geese dairy products. Feed geese bite-sized portions.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The goose’s natural diet is heavy in tender grasses plants. In winter months, especially, the vegetation geese need for a healthy diet is rare.  Giving them spinach, lettuce, alfalfa sprouts, and chard will keep them happy and healthy.  Geese may find other vegetables like carrots, green beans, and celery amenable as well. Veggies like broccoli and potatoes make geese happy too, but may need to be steamed and fed in a warm (not hot) state before the geese can digest them. Whole grain breads, whole oats, lentils, brown rice, small seeds, and split peas are some of the foods geese enjoy.  Additionally, unprocessed popcorn (free of additives, salt, and butter) and small seeds like sunflower seeds make good snacks for geese.  You can also feed geese foods that occur naturally in their environment such as small fish, mollusks, and crustaceans.  Assorted vegetable/fruit scraps are also welcome. Geese do not like alfalfa and cannot eat raw potato peelings. If we, as humans, shouldn’t eat it, geese definitely shouldn’t eat it.  Things like white bread, candy, junk food, fast food, chips, and anything with high levels of salt, sugar, and fat should not be fed to geese. Young geese (less than 6 weeks old) who are given high-protein or carb-heavy foods regularly may develop angel wing, a condition which causes their wings to develop in an unnatural way and inhibits their ability to fly. Avoid feeding geese milk, yogurt, or baked goods containing milk.  Geese are lactose intolerant.  Consumption of dairy may lead to diarrhea and dehydration, which could in turn lead to death. Do not give food to geese in portions too large for them to swallow.  Their throats are much smaller than ours and they have no teeth with which to chew their food, so it is important that you provide food in bits no bigger than one to two square inches.


Feed it dinner. Bathe the doll. Change its diaper. Read it a bedtime story. Sing the doll a lullaby. Put the doll to bed.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Perhaps a small bottle should do it. Pretend to put it in the bathtub and use fake shampoo and body wash.  Choose a fairy tale or make something up. Rock the doll in your arms and sing a soft song to your sensational sweetheart. Now that it's knocked out cold in your arms, gently lay it down in its crib and kiss it goodnight.


Feed it. Give your dog a place to sleep. Consider your dog’s bathroom needs.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A neglected dog is almost always a hungry dog. If you found the dog, then offer the dog water to drink, and if he is thin or emaciated, offer him a small amount to eat. Chose something bland such as boiled white rice. Giving a full sized meal or rich food is likely to upset the dog's stomach when he isn't used to eating.  In the short term, feed little and often, such as 4 - 6 small meals spaced through the day. This allows the stomach to get used to having food in it.  An emaciated or thin dog needs building up, but do this slow over the weeks and months to come. Aim to give 2 to 4 meals a day of good quality food. Avoid foods that are high in cereal content (cereal is listed first on the food label) as this is harder to digest as it ferments in the gut, which is likely to cause stomach upsets.  Chose a good quality food that is age appropriate (puppy food for juniors, adult food for adults). Look on the food label and chose one that list actual meat as the top ingredients (as opposed to meat meal, which is processed organ and offal). Provide a soft blanket in a quiet corner and leave the animal alone to rest. It is best to restrict the dog to one room so that he isn't overwhelmed. Provide him with a bed, and praise him when he uses it to help him realize this is his space.  It is best to restrict the dog to one room so that he isn't overwhelmed. Provide him with a bed, and praise him when he uses it to help him realize this is his space. At this stage you may not know if he is house trained or not, so put puppy pads by the door just in case. When the dog wakes, give him a chance to go into the yard for a toilet break. Likewise take him out immediately after eating and about half an hour later as food in the stomach stimulates the bowel to move. A stray dog may not be house-trained. Do not punish the dog for going potty inside, as this may further damage the animal's already nervous disposition. Watch the dog's habits and bring it outside every few hours, allowing it enough time to sniff around, get...


Feed or pasture them according to the seasons. Maintain a good herd health program. Check your cows regularly for signs of illness or injury. Maintain a breeding schedule. Keep a regular check on fences.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Beef cows should be let to graze out on pasture during the times when pasture is available. If pasture is no longer available or you do not have enough area to allow stockpile grazing, then you will need to confine them to a "sacrifice area" where you have to feed them hay regularly, preferably by bales.  Make sure you cut the strings or netting from the bales before they're fed to them. Beef cows should be fed according to what stage of reproduction they're in, their physiological needs, and their body condition.  If cows are lactating with a suckling calf at side, they'll need good quality hay and supplementation if they are losing too much condition on just hay alone. Dry (non-lactating) beef cows that are in good condition do fine on lesser-quality hay. Thin cows need good quality hay and possibly supplementation to put on weight over the winter, but fat cows can do with poor quality forage to lose weight. With grazing, opt for rotational grazing to keep your pastures healthy and more productive than if you were to allow all of your pasture for grazing. Annual soil samples and regular harrowing, if you do not have chickens or dung beetles you can rely on to spread the manure around, will also help keep your pasture and paddocks productive.  Always ensure your cows have access to clean water and loose mineral. As mentioned above with Dairy cows, keep up-to-date with vaccinations and deworming/de-licing throughout the year.  Certain vaccines for your cows may only need to be given once a year, whereas with deworming and de-licing, more applications per year may be necessary.  See your vet for best vaccinations and de-worming products that are best for your cows, if you haven't done so already. Beef cows are a bit more tougher and less reliant on humans than dairy cows are, so less checking can be done with these girls.  Many people who raise beef cattle don't check on them daily or more than once a day, unless they're rotational grazing them; they often only check them once a week or every two weeks to give...


Feed specially designed Vitamin C tablets directly to your guinea pig. Offer Vitamin C tablets or liquids designed for children. Don’t rely on adding Vitamin C to drinking water.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

These are supplements designed to appeal to your guinea pig by resembling a treat. Be sure not to use supplements after their expiration date, since they are unlikely to have sufficient active Vitamin C by that point. Be sure not to give too much. Guinea pigs are much smaller than human children and only need about 20-25mg/day of Vitamin C. Although Vitamin C does not stay in the body, it’s not good for your guinea pig to ingest too much of the sugar or other additives that may be included in products designed for children.  You might add the supplement to a leafy green or other treats to encourage your guinea pig to take it. You can also administer liquids by a dropper or syringe, but try something else if your guinea pig resists this method.  Don’t use a multivitamin designed for adults. It is likely to contain other vitamins and minerals that your guinea pig doesn’t need and that may cause harm in large quantities. Supplements may alter the taste of the water and discourage your guinea pig from drinking enough, leading to dehydration as well as Vitamin C deficiency. Also, Vitamin C breaks down quickly when exposed to light and water. After eight hours, the available Vitamin C in a water bottle may be no more than 20% of what was originally added.


Feed the Angelfish heavily. Change the tank water frequently. Look for signs of reproductive readiness. Make sure the eggs get air circulation. Be patient.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Once you’ve relocated your paired Angelfish to the spawning tank, begin feeding them more heavily than you had before. Try feeding them about three to four times a day. An increase in food consumption induces breeding in Angelfish.  Feed Angelfish bloodworms, frozen brine shrimp, white worms, or a beef heart mixture.  Remove any uneaten food after 3 to 5 minutes to help keep the water clean. Angelfish require clean water to breed successfully, and because of the increased feedings, the tank water will need more frequent replacing. Change out at least 30% of the water once a week. It’s even better to change out out 30% of the water daily. Usually within 5 to 8 days of being placed in the spawning tank, your Angelfish will be ready to breed. The female Angelfish’s belly will swell and a papilla, an organ between the ventral and anal fin, will appear on both the male and the female. The female’s papilla is larger than the male’s, which is how you can tell the sexes of Angelfish apart. Because the Angelfish are captive, they might not retain all of their wild parenting instincts. After the eggs are laid and the male fertilizes them, you need to watch to see if the Angelfish fan the eggs with their fins. If not, this means the eggs aren’t getting the air circulation they need. You should turn the spawning slate upside down to increase a good flow of water. If using a flower pot, you can remove the eggs entirely from the tank and place them in another tank with the same pH and water temperature as the spawning tank. It may take the Angelfish a few tries at breeding to be successful. Sometimes Angelfish will eat their eggs or sometimes the eggs don’t hatch. Angelfish breed as often as every 7 to 10 days, so be patient and let them try again.


Feed the cat alone. Give smaller meals. Offer comfort and attention. Wipe the cat's nose. Hand feed the cat.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If there are other animals in the house, the cat may feel uncomfortable eating, as it tries to compete for food. If you section off a room where you can feed just that cat, it can increase the chances of the cat eating. Smaller meals throughout the day may seem counter-intuitive, but it can actually encourage your cat to eat. If your cat doesn't have a large appetite, it may be overwhelmed by a large bowl of food. Some cats want attention when they're eating. Try stroking your cat and talking soothingly to it while it's eating. You can also try a bit of petting if your cat is near the bowl but not eating. This tactic won't work with every cat, though, so if your cat seems disturbed by the attention, leave it alone. If the cat has been sick, it may not be smelling very well. Wiping the cat's nose and trying to remove discharge may help it smell better. In turn, it may be more interested in food because it can smell it. A cat who hasn't been interested in food may be more inclined to eat if you hand feed it. For canned food, you can put a little on your finger and offer it to the cat. For dry food, place a bit in your hand, and hold it out for the cat to eat.


Feed the catfish in the evenings. Give your catfish 1 pinch of catfish fish pellets each day for nutrition. Feed your catfish up to 1 handful of leftover fruit and vegetables each day.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Catfish are nocturnal, so they tend to wake up in the late afternoon or early evening. Place the food in the tank before you go to bed to ensure that the catfish are awake when you feed them. This helps to ensure that your bullhead catfish receives enough protein and vitamins. Any flakes or pellets designed for fish will work well for catfish. Follow the feeding instructions on the back of the packet. Bullhead catfish are scavengers and enjoy a varied diet. Chop the fresh fruit and vegetables into 0.75 in (1.9 cm) cubes, so that they will fit into catfish's mouth. Drop the produce into the tank and wait for the fish to search it out in the bottom of the tank.  Feed the fish a maximum of ½ cup (~25 g) of produce each day. If the fish stop eating the food, this shows that they are full. Bullhead catfish thrive off organic produce and fish pellets because they don't contain any pesticides. Look for products that are spray-free or organically grown to help the fish reach optimum health.


Feed the fry. Change the water. Watch their growth.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Right after the fry are born or are introduced into the tank, feed them. Your local aquarium shop might have food made especially for fry. Otherwise, you can use baby brine shrimp or a high quality flake food that is ground into a powder.  Regular flake food may be too large for the fry to handle. Use a coffee grinder or a mortar and pestle to grind up your regular fish food into a powder that is more manageable for the fry. Keep to a regular feeding schedule. Feed your fry small amounts of food, about a pinch at a time, several times a day. To make it easy, feed the fry immediately before or after you eat. Clean any uneaten food from the tank. Use a net or a skimmer to get powdered food off of the surface of the water. Even with a filter, you want to change the water regularly to ensure the health of your fry. Try to use some water from your standard aquarium when you change out the fry’s water in order to acclimate them to their eventual home. Look to change about twenty percent of the tank’s water every day. That means that if you have a 10 gallon aquarium, you want to take two gallons a day out and replace them with two gallons of water from your regular aquarium. It will take around one to two months for your fry to grow large enough to be introduced into your standard aquarium. The fry should be larger than the mouths of an adult molly fish. Do not move the molly fry until you are sure they are ready to handle your larger tank. Moving the fry prematurely may cause tension between the fry and your other fish.


Feed the fry. Wait for the fish to mature. Separate the males and the females.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Use ground fish food of the same type that you feed to your adult mollies.  Flake food should be used as a primary base.  Supplement the normal meals with a broad variety of denser meals.   Various worms are great for molly fish.  Grindal worms, black worms, and blood worms work well. Brine shrimp, live or frozen, are a preferred source of food. Molly fish even eat algae, which is their primary food in the wild. It will take around nearly two months to be able to tell males and females apart.  Once they’ve doubled in size, it’s probably safe to introduce them into the main tank with the rest of the fish.  Another good way to tell if they’re safe to interact with the other fish is if they are too big to fit into the other fishes mouths. Once you know the gender of the mollies, you'll need to ensure more breeding doesn't take place.  They will, in fact, breed between brothers and sisters.  Try to separate the male and female fish before they are eight weeks old, which is when they reach sexual maturity.


Feed the kitten and its mother. Set up a cage trap. Move the food to the cage trap. Trap your kitten. Cover the cage and move your kitten. Avoid chasing or grabbing the kitten. Be patient.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Offer the kitten and its mother food from a bowl at the same time each day. Back away and give them space to eat. Having regular meals and a routine can build the kitten’s trust. This can also ensure that the mother brings out all of her kittens for food so you can choose one.  Place an item of yours, such as a sweaty shirt, underneath the food dish. The kitten will associate your scent with good things.  Remember that feral kittens are usually mistrusting of humans at first, which can lead to aggression. Give the kitten plenty of space when you feed it and don't rush the process. Trapping is the safest and kindest way to catch your feral kitten. Purchase or rent a humane cage trap and follow the directions for assembly. Secure the trap door with a cable tie so that you can continue to build trust with the kitten before you actually trap it. If you're trapping a young kitten that's still nursing, you'll need to trap the mother cat along with all of its other kittens. Any kittens you don't trap will starve without their mother. Place the food bowl at the back of the cage trap. Sprinkle bits of cat food at the entrance of the trap and around the base surface. This ensures that the kitten feels comfortable entering the cage. Hide the cage trap under bushes or in another safe spot so that the kitten can confidently enter and exit it. After the kitten feels comfortable entering and exiting the cage, attach a string to the trap door and pull it closed when you’re ready. Stay out of sight of the trap and pull the door shut with the taut string. This can ensure that you don’t trap the kitten in the door or associate you with trauma. Place a dark-colored sheet over the trap cage. Pick it up and set it in a quiet, warm room for the kitten. This can calm the kitten before you take it to the vet and release it into your home. Imagine if you were a young kitten that loves and feeds from its mother and enjoys playing with your siblings. Consider what it would feel like if a larger animal started chasing you and grabbed at...


Feed the kitten the food it was eating before you brought it home. Choose a food labelled as "Kitten" or "growth. Adjust the type of food you give your kitten as it grows up. Avoid giving your kitten additional food.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When you bring it home, feed what it is used to eating at her previous home. A sudden change of diet will upset its tummy. Decide what you want to feed the kitten long term. After 2 - 3 days, when it is settled, you can gradually change its diet. Do this by mixing in increasing quantities of the new food over several days so that the kitten's stomach gets a chance to adjust to the new food. " This food is balanced to provide the calcium and extra protein that a growing kitten needs. Choose a good quality food that has a named meat, for example "chicken" rather than "meat meal" or "chicken meal", as top ingredient on the label. Know that cats are obligate carnivores, which means they depend on meat to be healthy. This means that you need to avoid foods that are heavily bulked up with cereals. You can spot this by seeing if cereals or soy products are high on the food label. Your kitten needs a growth food during their first six months. After that, their growth slows down.  Kitten foods are calorie dense, so if kitty is putting on too much weight, it is fine to switch to an adult food (less calories) at six months of age. If your kitty is at a correct weight switch to adult food at one year of age. For example, don't give milk or cream. The kitten doesn't need it and it is likely to upset its stomach.


Feed the top rails through the loop caps. Insert the rail ends into the terminal rail caps. Tighten nuts and bolts. Add your dirt.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Cut off excess length with a pipe cutter or hacksaw. If the rails are too short, create longer runs by using rails with male-female coupling ends. You may need to adjust the height of the rail caps to allow for the height of the chain link mesh, plus a 2 inch (5.1 cm) clearance at the bottom. After checking your top rails and caps for proper fit and alignment, tighten all the hardware. Fill the line post holes with dirt, packing the dirt firmly around the holes.


Feed them fruit and vegetables. Provide live food. Use high quality pellets. Get the right balance of food and vitamins. Provide constant access to water.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Turtles have a varied diet which includes fruit and vegetables as well as meat. As a general rule a younger turtle will eat more meat, and as they get older he will shift to eat more fruits and vegetables. Of the fruit and vegetables you provide, around 80-90% of total should be made up from vegetables and flowers, with just the remaining 10-20% coming from fruit. Generally, green and leafy things should be the largest part of their diet, while you should avoid fibre-rich vegetables such as lettuce and celery.  Good vegetable choices include kale, parsley, green beans, bell peppers, and cabbage. Small amounts of spinach and broccoli are also good choices. Flowers including carnations, roses and hibiscus can be added for variety. For the fruit content use apples, bananas, pears, grapes, kiwi and melon. Unlike tortoises, turtles also eat meat. This is an important part of their diet so be sure to have a regular supply of animal-based food for your turtle, including live food. The type of things you should feed your turtle includes crickets, mealworms, waxworms and other small grubs and insects. If your turtle is aquatic it will need to eat small fish such as comet goldfish, mosquito fish, or even aquatic snails.  You can buy live worms and crickets from your local pet store, as well as pre-packaged dead ones. Feeding your turtle live crickets can seem a little tricky, but it helps to replicate how a turtle would eat in the wild. An easy way to provide food for your turtle is to use specially prepared turtle pellets which you can buy in your local pet store. These will be designed to provide the range of minerals and vitamins your turtle needs. If you are trying to replicate how a turtle would feed in the wild, however, the pellets are less authentic than fresh greens and insects. If you use pellets try to make them part of a balance with fresh food. Think of pellets as forming the only the foundation of the diet. For a creature with a diet as varied as a turtle, getting a good balance of all the different...


Feed your Husky high-quality dog food. Brush your Husky’s coat. Bathe your Husky. Trim your Husky’s nails. Brush your Husky’s teeth.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Huskies were originally bred to survive on a small amount of food. Therefore, your Husky will not need to eat a lot of calories to be healthy and have the energy to play and exercise.  Feed your Husky either once or twice daily and avoid exercise for at least 90 minutes after eating.  Your Husky may need more or less food, depending on such factors as her size, age, and health status.  If you have a Husky puppy, begin by feeding her three times a day — early morning, early afternoon, and evening. When she is three to four months old, she will likely cut herself back to twice-daily meals. Human food and canned food may cause your Husky to become a finicky eater and/or develop diarrhea.  If you purchased your Husky from a breeder, he or she can recommend dog foods for your Husky to eat. You can also ask your veterinarian and other Husky owners for food recommendations. By nature, Huskies are very clean dogs. They have little to no dog odor and groom themselves frequently, so you will not need to do much extra grooming. However, Huskies do shed quite a bit, particularly during the spring and fall when they blow their coats (complete shedding of the undercoat).  The "blowing coat" period lasts for at least three weeks.  Brush your Husky with a slicker brush at least once a week throughout the year to remove dead hair and keep his coat fresh and shiny. Slicker brushes are available at your local pet store.   Do not  shave your Husky's coat in the summer. You may think that shaving his coat will help cool him off, but you are actually removing his protection from harmful ultraviolet rays. Since Huskies do an excellent job of keeping themselves so clean, they rarely need baths. You will probably need to bathe your Husky only once a year. If you are not able to bathe your Husky on your own, you may prefer to take her to a dog groomer. Your Husky’s nails should be trimmed once every one to two weeks. If your Husky’s energy and size make it difficult for you to trim his nails on your own, schedule a nail-trimming...


Feed your Iris. Steer clear of putting mulch directly on your plant’s rhizome. Consider dividing your rhizome. Give your Iris the water it needs. Collect seeds from your Iris if you don't deadhead your plants. Help your seeds to grow.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Irises will benefit from a feed in the early spring. Try to use a fertilizer that is relatively low in nitrogen relative to potash (potassium) and phosphorus. High nitrogen fertilizers are thought to promote rot in Iris rhizomes. Avoid mulching on top of your Irises’ rhizomes to avoid rot. A rhizome is a horizontal stem that grows out from the center of the plant. You can put a shallow mulch that is roughly two inches in depth around the plant, but you should make sure that the mulch doesn’t cover the rhizomes and the center of the plant. Avoid using manure, even at planting time. It can take quite a while to germinate Iris seed so you may have better results and faster ones by dividing the rhizome. Dividing the rhizome every few years also helps maintain the plant’s performance. This should be done about 6 weeks after flowering. It’s fine to deadhead your Iris plant thoroughly if you are planning to divide it. Irises don’t tend to need a lot of watering but you may like to water your plants occasionally during dry weather. Try to give your plant a good amount of water once a week rather than giving the plant a small amount of water more frequently.  Avoid over-watering as this makes the rhizome prone to rot. It’s especially important to water over the summer if you have a variety that will rebloom the same year. Varieties that only flower in the spring don’t need as much summer attention. If you want to get seeds from your Iris, limit your deadheading and let at least one flowerhead remain after flowering so that the seedhead develops there. Bear in mind the resulting plants will vary in appearance and won’t necessarily be like the parent plant. Growing Iris from seed usually involves soaking them for at least 2 days beforehand. Many gardeners pre-chill the seeds by storing them in the fridge beforehand.


Feed your anole Provide water for your lizards by spraying plants in the tank 2-3 times a day. Monitor your anole for common health problems. Consider adopting multiple anoles if you want them to breed. Handle your anole rarely and with caution.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

2-3 insects once per day. Anole lizards are insectivores and tend to eat small insects such as crickets, mealworms, and wax worms. Provide 2-3 individual insects every day for each young lizard in your terrarium and 2-3 insects every other day for each adult lizard.  To feed the anoles, simply place the live insects directly in the enclosure where your anoles can see them. When feeding your lizards worms, place the worms in a shallow saucer to prevent them from escaping or hiding from your lizards. The anole must also have proper vitamins and calcium in its diet; since it eats feeder insects, all of the lizard’s extra nutrients must be contained in those insects. If you keep crickets around in bulk, "gut-load" them by feeding them a vitamin-rich cricket food prior to feeding them to your lizards. This way, all of the nutritious food your crickets just ate will then, in turn, be passed on to your anole. You can also dust the crickets with a supplement powder at each feeding to help ensure the anoles get enough calcium and vitamins. Avoid feeding your anole anything larger than half the size of its head. You should also not feed your lizard superworms or king-worms, as these possess powerful mandibles that might injure your anole. Anoles may also eat waxworms, fruit flies, small worms, canned crickets, small spiders, or earthworms. Occasional fast prey like small cockroaches or flies would also be welcome and would give your lizards some much-needed exercise. Anoles prefer to get their water in the form of droplets off plant leaves. To allow your lizards to drink water this way and to make sure they have adequate water, use a spray bottle to mist both the anoles and the plants in the terrarium for 10 seconds 2-3 times a day. If you choose to put a small water dish in the terrarium instead of misting the leaves, make sure it’s a shallow bowl. Anoles can drown by falling into a deep water bowl with steep sides. The water level in the bowl should never be any higher than the height of your lizard. The most common...


Feed your budgie a variety of foods, like fruits and vegetables, seeds and pellets. Give your parakeet plenty of toys. Keep your budgie's cage clean.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A full bird is a happy bird, particularly when it isn't bored of the food you give it. Give your budgie seeds, pellets, fruits and vegetables.  Start out with natural pellets that contain no colorings or added sugar. Feed seeds separately—not mixed with pellets.  There are some foods to avoid, including avocados, eggplant, mushrooms, onions, chocolate and more. Parakeets play a lot, so toys will keep them very happy, making them more loving pets. Give them shiny toys, swings, rings, bells, etc. Budgies appreciate a clean home just like people. The difference is that budgies live in close proximity to their droppings. Keeping their cage clean minimizes exposure and helps keeps your bird nice and healthy. Get good perches for your parakeet(s).  Perches with varying diameter like natural tree branches help your budgie get exercise that is in addition to you bringing him or her out of the cage.


Feed your cat high-quality food and offer plenty of fresh water. Help an overweight cat lose weight. Increase your cat’s intake of omega fatty acids. Make sure your cat doesn’t have fleas or other parasites.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

A nutritious diet will help keep your cat healthy, which may lead to less shedding.  Look for wet cat food that lists specific meats (like chicken, beef, or fish) as the first two or three ingredients. Because cats need animal-based protein, these are vital to a healthy cat’s diet.  Dry cat foods and low-quality wet foods contain a lot of grains or other carbohydrates like wheat, corn, and soy. These ingredients are not as nutritious for cats as meat-based proteins.  They may even cause allergic or digestive issues that lead to dry skin and shedding. Overweight cats have more difficulty grooming themselves and are prone to having more loose fur.  You can tell if you cat is overweight if you can’t feel its ribs without pressing. If you don’t see a narrowing waist in front of the hips when looking at the cat from above, this is another warning sign.  A veterinarian can give your cat a specific diet plan if needed. You can also try reducing your cat’s intake to the recommended amounts and refraining from giving treats. Play with your cat regularly so it gets enough exercise. Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids are particularly important to keeping a cat’s skin and fur healthy. This can help reduce shedding.  You can find omega fatty acids in wet cat foods that contain salmon oil or flax oil. You can also buy omega fatty acid supplements that you can feed your cat separately or mix into its food. Your vet is best able to judge appropriate diet modifications. But, adding omega fatty acids should be safe if you choose a supplement made for cats and don’t go beyond the recommended amount. If your cat is scratching vigorously (and thus perhaps shedding more), it could be the result of fleas or parasites.  Look for dark flea feces near the base of the tail. If you discover fleas or flea feces, treat your cat for fleas. Then, keep your cat on a monthly flea-control regimen. Ask your veterinarian to help you choose a flea-control product. If you’re unable to trace the source of the itching, take your cat to the vet.  In...


Feed your cat several small meals during the day. Give your cat wet food instead of kibble. Dampen your cat’s kibble if they’re resistant to eating canned food. Feed your cat a raw food diet. Transition your cat to their new diet over a period of weeks.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Giving your cat a single large meal every day will boost the alkalinity of their urine. To avoid this, plan to feed your cat 4–6 small meals throughout the day. This will even out their body’s intake of nutrients and calories, and should prevent a spike in the cat’s pH alkalinity. For example, give your cat a small scoop of food at 8am before you leave for work and another at 5pm when you get home. Then give the cat 2 more scoops of food later in the day, around 7pm and 10pm. In nature, cats get the majority of their water from the food they eat. Domestic cats are healthiest—and have the best urinary tract health—when they also receive plenty of hydration through their food. If you currently feed you cat kibble, switch the dry food out for a high-quality wet food.  For comparison, kibble contains from 5–10% water, while wet food contains about 75% water. Kibble dehydrates cats who eat it, and is high in carbohydrates, which cats’ bodies are not prepared to process. Cats are notoriously picky eaters, and it can take time for a cat to change their diet. If your cat doesn’t take to the canned food right away, you can add more water content to its dry food to get the cat used to a wetter meal. Scoop up a handful of water, and use your fingers to sprinkle it over the bowl of dry kibble.  To further entice your cat, try sprinkling the water from canned tuna over their dry food instead of using tap water. Use this technique as a way to transition your cat from kibble to canned food. Raw food contains even more water than does store-bought wet food, and will hydrate your cat far more than kibble would. So, raw food will keep your cat as hydrated as possible, and keep their pH low at a safe, healthy level. To make raw food, you can purchase an already-made mix of raw meats from a local grocery store. Then, mix in some raw eggs, water, and health-boosters like vitamins E and B. Switching your cat from 1 type of diet to another overnight will upset your cat’s stomach if you. Instead, take a period of 4–6 weeks to...


Feed your cat the proper diet. Create a feeding schedule. Get regular check-ups with your vet. Find reliable care for your cat when you are away. Join online support groups or forums on cat diabetes.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Most people know that human diabetics have to be careful what they eat, and this is also the case with cats. The ideal cat diet is rich in protein and low in carbohydrates. Unfortunately, most cat foods you find at the supermarket will be high in carbs and low in protein. You'll need a cat food geared for your cat's needs.  Many premium pet food companies offer high protein prescription diets. These companies include Purina, Hills, and Royal Canin. The Purina diet, DM, comes in wet and dry varieties. As long as the cat has free access to drinking water, either formulation is fine.  Feeding your cat a protein-dense diet will help your cat’s body reduce the amount of excess glucose it produces. This will help your cat’s body to stabilize itself. Some cats may not need anything more than switching to a high-quality, protein-dense diet. These cats may even go back to normal after a few months of this new diet. Until recently, many believed that the best time to feed a diabetic cat was directly after an insulin injection. However, scientists now recognize that insulin levels will peak 3 to 6 hours after injection, which causes your cat to become hungry. The principle is to match the main meal to the peak insulin activity, which happens around 3 hours after you give them an insulin injection.  Before you give your cat an insulin injection it is important to check that they are eating as usual. That's why it is a good idea to give them a snack before their injection. If you notice that your cat refuses to eat, give your vet a call before giving them the injection. If the cat is sick, giving a full dose of insulin could result in an overdose.
 In simple terms, this means splitting your diabetic cat’s daily food allowance into four small meals. Give two small snacks before each insulin injection and the rest in two meals, approximately 3-6 hours after each injection. A typical regime might look something like this:  7am  —  snack + insulin injection 10am —  a meal 7pm  —  snack + insulin injection 10pm  — a meal Your...

Feed your dog a specialized diet for weight loss. Measure out your dog's food for each feeding. Keep a daily record of how much you're feeding your dog, including treats, and the amount of exercise they are getting. Reduce, or eliminate, unhealthy treats. Exercise your dog more often. Make sure your dog gets mental stimulation.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your veterinarian can help you decide what to feed your dog. This can be simply reducing the amount of your dog's current food or changing it to a weight loss diet.  There are prescription diets available to help your dog lose weight along with diets to help them keep it off once they have reached their ideal weight. These diets are lower in calories and contain higher amounts of fiber to make your dog feel full while taking in fewer calories. These diets are typically more expensive than regular foods and are usually reserved for cases where extreme weight loss is needed or where simply reducing the amount of a regular food isn't working. There is now a new category of weight loss diets available, which work by using "genomics" or using science to switch on genes concerned with burning calories. Hills Metabolic diet is the only variety currently on the market. This allows you to easily spot any changes in appetite, which can indicate other issues. This is even more important when trying to get your dog to lose weight. You need to know exactly what and how much your dog is eating in order to be able to gauge how effective your plan is and to make any needed adjustments. If you have other dog's in the house you may need to keep your pups separated during feeding time. Make sure that each dog only gets its own food by placing them in separate rooms with their meals until all food it consumed. You can use a measuring cup, but weighing each day’s amount is a more accurate way to be sure you are feeding the right amount. You can make a chart or download one from the Internet. Be sure to also include a weekly weight for your dog. Take it with you when you visit your vet to best evaluate your progress. Most commercial treats for dogs are very high in calories, similar to the candy that people eat. While there are reduced calorie commercial treats, you can almost eliminate your dog's treat calories by replacing them with much healthier snacks.  Examples of healthier snacks that are safe for dogs include carrots,...
