Verified ParticipantI’ve had good luck with Skout’s Honor Odor Eliminator spray. You could also try making a vinegar spray or use activated charcoal sachets in areas prone to bad smells.

Verified ParticipantWe’ve been trying fetch in the house at shorter distances with success! My dog will now retrieve the toy, but the “drop” part is still a work in progress. We’ll keep at it!

Verified ParticipantI have a tendency to say “beep beep” when I’m trying to get around someone. For example, say I’m working in the kitchen and need to grab a spice, I’ll say “beep beep” so my partner knows move out of the way. Well, now it works for my dog too. When I say “beep beep” my dog automatically starts backing up.

Verified ParticipantChucky? Costumes where the dog looks like their walking on two feet always crack me up—especially on small dogs.
Terrifier 3 is in theaters right now… you could DIY an Art the Clown costume. 🫣

Verified ParticipantWe had a breakthrough! I learned that if I keep my palm flat facing up and hold the treat between my thumb and pointer finger while lowering my hand to the ground, Barney will follow the treat to the floor. After doing this five or so times in a row, I transitioned by keeping the treat in the same position but curling all of my fingers except the pointer finger and lowering my hand again. From there, I was able to flip my hand over while moving it to the ground, so that I was pointing to the ground while the treat lowered. Now, I can touch the ground with my finger point and Barney will lie down. I am working on being able to just point down instead of touching the floor. I used this video on YouTube to get the technique down. So helpful!

Verified Participant@SnoopDoggyDog Thorpe’s story is really interesting. He was the first Native American to win a gold medal for the United States, and he also had an impressive football career. Thorpe was actually stripped of his Olympic medals for violating amateur sporting rules (he was payed to play two seasons of semi-pro baseball) but they were later reinstated after his death. https://www.biography.com/athlete/jim-thorpe

Verified ParticipantHave you considered bamboo sheets? They are very soft yet hold up well. Breathable and temperature-regulating so you won’t get to hot if your dog is pumping out heat. Plus, bamboo is naturally hypoallergenic and antimicrobial.

Verified ParticipantSounds like it’s time for a vet appointment. Could be any number of things: strained muscle, nerve pain, arthritis, foreign body, anxiety, or even a fake injury for attention. Better to get it checked out ASAP.

Verified ParticipantHave you looked into Petfinder, Adopt A Pet, or any other adoption databases? You can filter by breed, age, geographical location, etc. If you’re not against traveling or waiting a bit, you can find one via these adoption sites.
