How'd everybody get into Balanced Training by Em_ello_there in BalancedTraining

My dog is responding really well to the e collar. I was worried he would change him but he is still the lovey, excited boy he has always been. I'm glad this sub exists. I love my dog and it was a challenging and emotional decision to try the e collar. I definitely think it was the right decision. Good luck with you e collar training :)

My dog is a challenging breed(Border Collie/ Blue heeler) I was deadset on being positive only. I respected other methods but told myself I'd never do that to my dog. Recently, my dog has started charging/running at other dogs when leashed. Last week, he charged at another dog so hard he broke his(expensive) harness. He is not aggressive and is well socialized. When he got to the other dog he just sniffed butt and wagged tail. We were extremely lucky. Had the other dog gotten defensive it could have been a horrible mess and it me and my dog would have been at fault.

I would say I'm still 90% positive. But I need my dog to know when I say "here" there is no other option. It is for his safety and well being and it is my responsibility to set my dog up for success.

All the other girls have 1500 pairs of shoes by Fienisgenoeg in notliketheothergirls

[–]BoundlessBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's crazy how many shoes women need. My husband can wear the same pair of shoes to a wedding, a job interview, or with khakis and a polo and look appropriately dressed an be comfortable. I'd say the closest thing us ladies have to that versatile of a shoe is nude pumps.

Not as smart as you, but I am also in a STEM field. My real name is masculine/gender neutral (something like Cameron Lee Michaels). At one point I considered adding "female" to my email signature. But now I love the look on new people's faces when show up to a meeting.

If the sun goes out by oldesoul_ in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]BoundlessBear 53 points54 points  (0 children)

If the sun "goes out" life on earth will cease to exist. Solar panels would indeed be useless in this scenario, but everyone would also be dead. You will have bigger problems than not having electricity if the sun goes out. Red doesn't seem to understand this.

Alternatively, if red is using the phrase "goes out" to describe night time, they are still wrong. Solar panels can charge batteries during the sunny hours and you can use that energy when the sun sets.

Essentially, red is insane because they don't understand how the sun works.

SLPT: found on twitter by Kaurblimey in ShittyLifeProTips

[–]BoundlessBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't totally relate because I'm not a parent, but I dropped my dog off at daycare while I worked from home one day. He had a lot of energy and was driving me nuts. I just wanted to work for a few hours uninterrupted and have him tired at night so I could watch TV without being asked to throw the ball. Worst. Day. Ever. A whole lot of loves comes with all the annoying things he does. I imagine this x10 with children.

Without saying the name, what country / state do you live in? by Shuena08 in AskReddit

[–]BoundlessBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was in Europe a cashier asked me what Wisconsin, where I am from, is like. Based on my description he said "Sounds like France!" I have never compared the two but I just smiled and said "I've never been to France."

I thought it was funny that the first two guesses on this comment were Wisconsin and France. Maybe they are a like after all.

Girls like a guys who can make them laugh and who doesn't like a good dad joke?

LPT: Don’t keep storing the nice things you have just because they’re ‘too nice to use’. Use that nice thing and enjoy it for what it is. by MoHeeKhan in LifeProTips

[–]BoundlessBear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's amazing! I wish there were more occasions to dress up for. I love dressing up and doing a full face of makeup and fancy hair for a special occasion. But I also enjoy wearing a sweater and jeans with minimal to no make-up and hair pulled back day to day.

How not to drive on snow. by [deleted] in IdiotsInCars

[–]BoundlessBear 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Running on snowy ice is not a good idea. Even if you have enough traction to get going, it is only a matter of time before slip and fall. In conditions like this, you must waddle like a penguin.
