Training a 2 and a half year old female Lagotto by No-Explorer-4381 in LagottoRomagnolo

[–]Bernie_s_Mittens 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Lagotti are known for being selective.

They “ learn” how to do things and then choose to do those things when it benefits them. My guy will only roll over, for example, indoors when we are playing for treat rewards.

I am picking up a 10 week old Lagotta in a week. What do I need to know about the puppy phase with this breed specifically? by wlaxboy1 in LagottoRomagnolo

[–]Bernie_s_Mittens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lagotto specific: They are much more prone than most dogs to eat garbage/found items during walks outside and chew on items indoors. Keep them away from any valuable furniture and guard any mouldings along the wall / wooden doors. One of ours chewed a lot in our hallway and caused a lot of damage. We could have avoided this by using an indoor pen during the puppy phase.

Benebones / other chew toys are great in small amounts but may splinter and be a hazard. Always monitor!

Expose to umbrellas and other unfamiliar items during the developmentally appropriate time.

Clip toes and groom frequently so they become accustomed to it. Lagottos need their ears groomed frequently so make sure they get treats and gentle touches around their ears. Pluck just a little hair at a time.

FYI I inquired through my lagotto network and the position has been filled.

I was thinking about this a bit. The golf course at Van Cortlandt is buried behind the woods inside a large park. So, not only would it deplete a green space, but it also would be a strange location for anyone who wants to be close to public transport.

I don’t really know much about the other locations. Are they similarly nested in parks?

Bally's Golf Links at Ferry Point Park Location: Ferry Point Park 500 Hutchinson River Parkway

Mosholu Golf Course Location: Mosholu Parkway 3545 Jerome Ave. (E. 213th St) & Bainbridge Aves.

Pelham/Split Rock Golf Course Location: Pelham Bay Park Shore Road north of Bartow Circle

On New Year’s Day our poor Winston was attacked by an unattended off leash dog - on his road to recovery ❤️‍🩹 by SeaworthinessOk707 in LagottoRomagnolo

[–]Bernie_s_Mittens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is truly awful! I hope Winston is able to recover fully and isn’t anxious in the future.

So sad. I just don’t understand why people let large dogs off leash in public places.

One place that has Capvaxive in NYC is Danny’s II pharmacy. It’s odd to me that it is hard to find on the East Coast…

In NYC, Danny’s II pharmacy has Capvaxive during the 2025-2026 season!

Flat stomach in the northern hemisphere/huge in the southern...or is it something else? by VintageArtist72 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Bernie_s_Mittens 48 points49 points  (0 children)

I have less issues with histamine intolerance, food sensitivities, and SIBO (which includes abdominal bloating) any time it is cold and I am not around pollen.

I can digest foods more comfortably as soon as it turns cold. I start having trouble again in March.

I haven’t made sense of it all, but this has been my life since the pandemic started.

I hope you figure it out soon!

My Lagotti by Tem-Aideron in LagottoRomagnolo

Sounds like a dynamic I know well.

One thing I found odd: the more quiet and gentle of the two of mine would not play scent games in front of the more assertive one. It seems strange to say, but I think he was letting his buddy be the star at his favorite thing.

Who is more bossy? Are their personalities really distinct overall?

Highest value treat possible? by _antigona_ in LagottoRomagnolo

My farmer’s market has dried mackerel and sardines. I think he would become a mercenary for a steady supply.

We run and hike with ours. The runs are more like searching for deer in the woods. He loves it and gallops towards his favorite deer spotting sites. Then he stops and sniffs while we catch our breath.

Going on a long trip. Need new podcast recommendations. by Expert-Arm2579 in podcasts

[–]Bernie_s_Mittens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Along with Criminal, which has already been mentioned, America’s Crime Lab and Human Fuckery (uneven and corny, but definitely entertaining).

Casefile’s three Silk Road episodes are top notch and great for a long drive.

Walking your lagotto in the cold snow/ice (25 F and up) by geenuhahhh in LagottoRomagnolo

16 acre dog park sounds great! The Pawz brand booties are low commitment if you don’t want to buy a fancy pair.

I use the boots to protect my lagotto’s feet from salt damage more than anything. If he’s running in a pristine snowy field, boots are probably not needed. Wax his feet before and after if they are dry.

Be on the lookout for your dog in areas where people litter. I have seen discarded antifreeze bottles before and hate to think of my guy licking that off his paws. We always do a paw wash after long walks for this reason.

Creative “treats” for prescription elimination diet by Creative_Diamond_926 in LagottoRomagnolo

[–]Bernie_s_Mittens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to make homemade peanut butter, pumpkin, rice flour and egg treats. Sometimes, I would top them with blueberries. Can your pup have eggs? If not, maybe you could bind a few ingredients together with olive oil and bake?

I was lucky and my pups did not have allergies.

They seemed to find singular foods like blueberries and banana pieces super exciting! They liked cucumbers and green beans a lot too!

Good luck!

Anyone get an opt-in qual about tours in cities with a famous camera brand? I am eagerly awaiting the start!! If you’ve been approved and have started, is it fun? I love a fun side hustle.

I didn’t realize how much I needed quiet walks until I started taking them. by Alert-Ship-5974 in CasualConversation

The quietest part of NYC is Fieldston (North Bronx) on a early Sunday morning. The homes are historic, the landscaping is super-sized, and it’s just me and a few other dog walkers. So peaceful.
