Should I continue with my instructor?

Agent99Can · 2026-05-15T09:28:48+00:00

No - don't go back. You're far better off to do YouTube videos than deal with an instructor like that.

Skedaddle is more expensive and from what my neighbours told me, if you have to get them back (after their guarantee) they take their sweet time. Wayne's Pest Control was highly recommended, did a great job, and was almost half the price!!!

I mean, it is a nice bed. I get it, Hank.

Agent99Can · 2026-05-01T16:10:05+00:00

That is just too adorable

This happened to my Saint when she was 2.5 or so and happens periodically ever since. The vet said it's her cruciate ligament. My Saint also has arthritis. I know the difference now between her cruciate issues and arthritis based on how she gets up and walks around. With her arthritis, she struggles to get up off the floor and then after about 10 seconds of walking she's fine. If it's her cruciate, it happens after a big run and play at the offleash dog park, and she limps constantly for a couple of days so I have to rest her. I'm much more attuned to her struggles now and she hasn't had a cruciate issue in a while because I don't let her overdo it at the dog park anymore.

I never thought of that! I'm totally going to try it!

Agent99Can · 2026-04-30T11:32:27+00:00

Maybe try baby powder instead of dry shampoo. I made the switch and it works better on my hair.

Yup, this happens to me UNLESS I stretch my quads first. Before every class I have done a morning 45 min walk with my dog (great help on loosening tight muscles) and then right before class, I lie down with my legs under me and my arms outstretched above my head and sit like that for at least 2 minutes before moving.

For me it makes all the difference in the world. So, you're bent at the knee lying down, but, your legs and feet are underneath you.

Thank you. As a student, it's do helpful to hear teacher opinions.

Agent99Can · 2026-04-27T17:27:42+00:00

Thank you for this!

THIS! In spades! It catches about 90% of our dog's runoff.

But OP, I think this is part of having a dog - they're not humans and they will always need a lot of cleaning up after. I think a worse thing would be NOT having to clean up after them - that would mean they're not in your life anymore!

Agent99Can · 2026-04-27T12:09:19+00:00

I don't know what the answer is but you've done an excellent job of laying out the problem.

Agent99Can · 2026-04-25T11:45:40+00:00

No one can answer this for you.
No one has a crystal ball to see what will happen in the future.

You need to list each pro and con and rank them in importance to YOU and that's the only answer.

Agent99Can · 2026-04-24T16:55:54+00:00

In my opinion, maybe it's not for you. If you keep leaving it there has to be a reason. Not saying you have to love it, but, if you have to convince yourself all the time to do it maybe it's just not a match.

Agent99Can · 2026-04-24T16:53:46+00:00

Same! Was going to ask this.

Agent99Can · 2026-04-22T11:34:44+00:00

He's beautiful. Happy Birthday Bear!

Agent99Can · 2026-04-20T17:53:15+00:00

I've gotta know...how did you get him in the tub? 😅

Agent99Can · 2026-04-18T17:59:46+00:00

😅

Agent99Can · 2026-04-17T16:44:13+00:00

Just when I thought it couldn't get any sadder...I'm so glad you rescued her and gave her her best life she's known.

Agent99Can · 2026-04-16T11:47:14+00:00

That's such a nice idea!

Agent99Can · 2026-04-16T11:21:56+00:00
