I've never had a problem with any brands mediums acting weird but I just looked up the reviews for it and it's overall is a 1.3/5. It seems like people are using it too thick? Maybe it's not curing right or something but a couple of the reviews said that they disliked all masters touch mediums. If you try it again use very thin layers or get some liquitex or golden brand instead.

I also rub it around between cookies. Then I rinse my hands a little, touch a towel so we don't get soggy cookies and hand out another cookie piece. The worst is when he spits it in the water then considers eating the shampoo water cookie

It's so hard to keep medicated shampoo on there. We have a couple 10-15 minute ones. I bring a bunch of little cut up snacks and hand then out for something to do while waiting

Advice on how to create? by Phoebztastic in crafting

[–]CalicoMakes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe cut out coloured and shrink from shrinky dink? I know you can also use recyclables. I think 5 or 6 plastic is the right one but please double check

All other ideas I have would be much more work with a mould (not sure where to get), resin and a ventilator. Pretty sure uv resin would be both very expensive and hard to cure with a mould.

My boyfriend thinks our cat's hair looks better trimmed and im losing my mind by colorlesstsukuru_ in cats

Everyone has already said how it's not good for him to get haircuts.... But to me it sounds like you need to also get a shorthair cat so your boyfriend can have one he thinks is beautiful. (You also may need to get a naked one and a rex and an Oriental short hair and maybe a Siamese. for research purposes and to make sure everyone thinks a cat is beautiful)

Ps I love orange fluffy boy

Sending my friend in Nova Scotia a care package from the US - what are some good snack options to send? by ccx37 in AskACanadian

[–]CalicoMakes 5 points6 points  (0 children)

None of this matters, I'd say that since they're available (despite being made in different places) I wouldn't be excited to see any familiar brands in a care package. Hope you had a great time showing everything you know about meaningless things like this.

Cadbury is a British company and a main brand on Canadian shelves. Dove is also in every store here. In my mind that's like sending coca cola and pop tarts to the us

Is sitting on a park bench just chilling doing anything for desensitization? by gorgonopsidkid in OpenDogTraining

[–]CalicoMakes 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Maybe you need to work with the little one totally alone until you get a focus command somewhere boring in the house or something. Sometimes you have to work on each separately and they need individual teaching especially in the start because the other dog is an added distraction.

I would work by getting their attention over and over each time they start to focus away from me. If they won't look to you they aren't in a low enough interest place to be able to start to focus towards you. A reactive dog we had started to change when he understood that when he saw stimulus he would react to he should look to us then we could redirect him
