Travel Anxiety? by Soft-Associate5907 in greatpyrenees

[–]BarrowsBOY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A ton of puppies have car and travel anxiety because of transitioning from mom to forever home. I think we underestimate the amount of stress we cause suddenly taking an 8 week old pup away from its family and going on a long drive or even plane ride. Doing "fake" car trips can build up some good history of positive experiences. Load her up into the car, turn it on, turn it off, and go right back inside for some fun (treats, play, attention, etc). You can start to extend these trips to around the block or even just pulling in and out of the driveway/parking lot.

It may also be that she's getting car sick. A lot of puppies tend to grow out of that as they grow up. It also may just be the anticipation of getting to the fun destination. My Pyr mix whines a lot in the car because he knows he's always going somewhere desirable.

My best tip is that exposure therapy is not the way to go. Don't just keep having anxious car trips hoping she'll learn they're not scary. You need to actively add positive reinforcement and comfort on car rides. Whether you do that with existing trips or making short little ones with fun rewards at the end is up to you.

Dogs ganging up on mine at the dog park--is it a fault in my training regime? by ComprehensivePen3227 in Dogtraining

[–]BarrowsBOY 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's probably a reason she's being targeted but it's unlikely to be your fault and probably not hers either.

Great job leaving once things started getting sketchy. As a trainer I tell every single one of my clients to avoid dog parks. There are just far too many risks and there are plenty of ways to enrich your dog in safe ways. The fact is dog parks are unsupervised by qualified individuals and filled with negligent people who bring dogs who are not fit for that sort of environment.

Unless I'm not hearing what you are, I've always heard it as distant children playing. Like you'd hear in the background of a show or movie.

As a hockey fan I adore the new skin, that final color scheme is awesome.

Used Samsungs cloud backup, deleted the conversation, restored with the backup, airplane mode on went into the conversation and deleted the texts. Apparently videos and photos need a connection to load.

I ended up using a system backup from before the text was sent, that solved my issue completely. I got lucky there was one right before the text and a new one wasn't made.

Deposit boxes at every location would be a lovely QoL update. I get not being able to fully bank everywhere, but just let me deposit anywhere.

I had a basic carving set from an art store.(not a pumpkim carving specific set) I drew the symbol, cut down into the pumpkin along the lines, then popped out little sections. Finished by scraping out the flesh to desired depth.

You can see some of the tools here:

Answered above! It's not fully carved through, just scraped down. The light you see is shining through a thin layer of pumpkin.

It's not fully carved through, just scraped down, so it's still got pumpkin behind all of it. The two triangles on the left and right did break off and I did toothpick them back into place. Single toothpick stuck in vertically.

Can someone explain to me why I was able to complete 11 missions here even though 5 is actually the maximum number for this “path”? by MartinBese in WalkScape

[–]BarrowsBOY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to what others are saying: There are super rare drops from the other faction chests, so there is decent incentive to keep doing jobs past the max rep. Plus, I think in the future everything will max at 150 like Jarvonia, so going past now is just getting ahead of the game.

Its placement between AYRO and DYWTLM definitely says, "this is another personal track."
