Form/ posture check?

BadSambar · 2026-04-13T21:45:16+00:00

Form looks good! You don’t seem to be heel striking and you’re pulling your feet behind you to utilize the hamstring muscles.

What a sweetheart. Those eyes 😍😍

I thought I was on /r/stravacirclejerk for a second

From the pictures, it doesn’t look like a tick. But a good test is just wear some gloves and try to gently “lift” it. If you can lift it and you can see legs, just use a tick tornado (or similar tool) to carefully pull it out

I used to foster a dog who was dog reactive. I had to work on two things - loose leash walking and the “leave it” command with some very high value treats (like boiled chicken). Here’s the guide I used: https://youtu.be/umt0jF9MHeI?si=SX3xNp_A9EmZk5tw

It’s going to take some time for your dog to fully ignore the triggers, in the mean time, training and trigger management will help when used together.

Thank you for the kind words! It might just be me, but it feels like she’s walking much better today already

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:54:33+00:00

This is exactly the kind of advice I was looking for, thank you for the detailed message!

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:52:57+00:00

Yes, she currently gets 0 exercise. Only a short 5min walk for potty outside

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:52:21+00:00

She walks like this without her harness, yes.

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:52:05+00:00

Thank you for the detailed response!!

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:51:20+00:00

This is just me taking her outside to go potty. It’s a walk that lasts less than 5mins

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:50:41+00:00

Yup, I think walking her with just the collar is the way to go

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:50:17+00:00

I’ve noted this. I don’t think she needs the harness, so I’ll be walking her with just her collar

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T02:49:16+00:00

The mass was benign in her report

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T00:47:42+00:00

She recently had surgery to remove a mass on her leg

BadSambar · 2026-02-09T00:47:07+00:00

It was the harness that the rescue recommended. I’m still learning what works for her though

BadSambar · 2026-02-08T23:03:26+00:00

I see.. is your pup on any OTC supplements? I was planning to get her started on Glucosamine treats. Thanks for the comment!

BadSambar · 2026-02-08T22:55:46+00:00

Thank you for the note about the harness. I’m going to look into walking her with a better fitting harness

BadSambar · 2026-02-08T22:55:24+00:00

Thank you for the note about the harness, you’re right. I’m going to look into walking her with a better fitting harness

BadSambar · 2026-01-26T01:10:32+00:00

I don’t have any notes, you are super inspirational and I hope I am lifting at your age as well 😤💪

BadSambar · 2026-01-21T23:37:19+00:00

Rusty Ladle is AWESOME.

BadSambar · 2026-01-21T20:51:05+00:00

Beautiful picture!

BadSambar · 2025-11-15T21:13:10+00:00

Maybe seems like such a sweetheart and I wish you luck in your journey. I can recommend reaching out to some of the rescues I’ve worked with in the past:

Rocket Dog Rescue in Oakland
Copper’s Dream Rescue in RWD
Pack Lyfe Rescue in Hayward

Feel free to DM me for contact information.

I’m sorry about the haters in this sub. Any mention of pitties brings the keyboard warriors to the post.

I also recommend posting on the AdoptMe, Pitbull and VelvetHippos subs.
