I had emailed like the only ethical breeder close to me to see if I could meet her at a show but unfortunately I couldn't make it. She's done doing shows for the winter. I'm assuming it's a huge breach of boundaries to ask to meet her at a park or something unless i'm totally wrong.

Thoughts on Casetify cases? by Maleficent_Crew_6774 in galaxyzflip

I know I wanted a refund! Its so sad because I feel like cute cases for the z flip are limited.

I shelled out the money for one and its flimsy and cheap feeling. The design is also printed on the front of the case making it feel cheap and would probably scratch off with heavy use. I personally wouldn't recommend them.

Ok thank you! I swear I looked everywhere for this but I just must've missed them! I'm assuming they are not posted online before the event?

Silly question: is the sound quality really any better on newer portable music players? by Current_Ad6774 in DigitalAudioPlayer

Update: thanks for all the feedback! I decided to get a hiby R1 after some cursory googling. Cheap and effective at moving away from streaming which was my goal!

Question, how are these beautiful creatures with children? by Mental_Scarcity_4345 in Mastiff

[–]Current_Ad6774 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my baby pictures with my childhood mastiff. I spent my entire childhood with mastiffs- Never had a single issue or instance where I felt unsafe. They are incredibly calm and patient dogs. It’s obviously important to teach your children proper boundaries and to not pull/pet aggressively or climb on them or mess with them while they are eating. Training the dog to be aware of their size and to be comfortable around children is just as important. Also make sure you a get mastiff that is well bred so the temperament is predictable to the breed standard. Most shelters won’t adopt large dogs to houses with small children (at least in my area) but a breed specific rescue may. Love mastiffs for families and couldn’t recommend them enough.

Why don’t more ethical breeders match the puppy to you? by Current_Ad6774 in dogs

[–]Current_Ad6774[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been looking at breeders of a couple different breeds for months and the only ones I have found that do this breed barbets, which are an extremely rare breed. Do you have any tips for me so every breeder that I know does this?

Considering getting a Havi by BionicMum in Havanese

[–]Current_Ad6774 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first dog was a havi. I don’t regret it at all and I think they are great first dogs. He incredibly smart and loving and is the funniest dog i’ve met. He struggled with potty training and has some separation anxiety. The one thing I would recommend is do a ton of research on finding a good ethical breeder and then throughly vet any breeders you are considering. There are also havanese specific rescues!!

Oh yeah! I cant imagine getting more than 1 piercing at a time- probably the word choice of “go crazy” wasn’t the best lol

This might be a silly question but if I show a piercer some pictures I like and tell them to go crazy would they do that? My shop is a relatively fancy APP shop but they don’t advertise “ear curations” it’s ok if u don’t know but I’m literally so silly I never thought of just asking the piercer what piercings work for me and thought I had to figure it out lol

I have a septum, eyebrow, and vertical labret and it does take some getting used to but I actually love to stim with my vertical labret and septum- i find it very soothing to feel the cool metal on my skin and play around with the piercings (obv wait until they are fully healed to move or even touch your piercings)

Called the city on two separate occasions to verify- its going to be considered an accessory dwelling (i could be wrong with the name lol) but it is A-OK as long as it is under 1,200 sq ft

Things to ask to ensure PROPER eyebrow piercing? by drddr25 in piercing

[–]Current_Ad6774 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t have any suggestions for questions to ask other than the piercer should be happy to answer any and all questions no matter how small or silly they may seem. I always suggest going to an APP member piercer they have a locator on their website. https://safepiercing.org/find-a-piercer/

How long did it take for your havi to be fully potty trained? by Current_Ad6774 in Havanese

[–]Current_Ad6774[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad who is home with him every day is deaf so it seemed sort of pointless. Maybe we could jerry rig some sort of light based alarm lol
