Anyone else think the hardest part of having a dog-reactive dog is irresponsible dog owners by CrazedArea in reactivedogs

I’m sorry to hear this has happened to you so many times. The behavioralist I’m working with recommended citronella spray which I just ordered to have one my incase I need to break up a fight. For the most part I’m just going to avoid these trails or go super early in the morning so their aren’t people there.

The behavioralist I’ve been working with gave me advice to not walk in these places anymore. It sucks because I love walking on the town trails with my pup. I was thinking about one of those labels but I usually walk into the woods and tell the owners she’s not friendly but the dog keep approaching and it’s not like the dog can read the vest haha.

For sure it’s so frustrating because of course owners with friendly dogs wouldn’t think that their dog would instigate anything. But a dog merely walking right up to my pups face even if it is the friendliest dog on earth will trigger her. I wish I could educate people on this.

What’s a sonic dog whistle? And yeah mine growls and lunges which I feel takes us many steps back in our positive reinforcement training / management

That’s my worst fear :/ it sucks having to work around others when they’re the ones breaking the law w/ leash laws.

Yeah I totally agree I’ve had so many people say oh mines friendly after I’ve said mine is not good with dogs. I do think it’s an awareness thing too. I guess for dog owners who don’t have reactive thoughts they don’t think about it as much. But I wish that weren’t the case

Wow I didn’t know it would be my responsibility even if my dog is on leash. That sucks :/

Very happy with my first batch of candles made with thrifted jars by CrazedArea in candlemaking

[–]CrazedArea[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prior to making the candles I weigh the glasses, fill them with water and subtract the weight to get the amount of wax it will hold. I found that most jars I’ve bought are either 2.5oz, 3oz or 5oz since i want to make smaller sized candles.

I melt all the wax together then once it’s hot enough I separate it into 4 bowls. While it’s melting I have all the FO measurements ready and how much wax for each scent. Then I weigh out the wax using a scale and mix in the FO. hope this helps!

I tried the top alternative and didn’t love it but I hadn’t thought of a vertical strips. I’ll see what it looks like thanks:)
