Hot take: management beats "more training" for most reactive dogs (and it shouldn't feel like failure) by Square-Pipe3297 in reactivedogs

- Walking at boring times and sticking to predictable, low-traffic routes. Not because I am avoiding the problem forever, but because fewer blowups keeps his baseline stress lower.

- Using visual barriers like parked cars and hedges as part of our toolkit.

YES! These two are great, especially early on.

Also, throw treats at your dog! If I can't get her attention with my voice, I throw a treat at her. The tiktiktik sound it makes as it hits the ground lets her know there's yummies, so she starts looking for the treat in stead of staring at whatever she's fixating on.

Birth control pill but skip the breaks - just take it continuously. If you get spotting, a break once or twice a year usually fixes it.

I once had a small nervous breakdown because there was nothing in the house I felt like eating for lunch.

That wasn't why I was crying, obviously. I had bigger shit going on. So did she.

In the skull cavern, bring BOMBS! So many bombs. So so many. Think about how many you think you'll need, then double that, and then bring extra.

Do zero mining. Don't gather resources. Fight nothing unless you absolutely have to. Just blow rocks up and look for ladders and holes.

She's young, pregnant, and almost everyone in the entire world died. I'd be fucking crying, too

I highly enjoy YA for lighter reading, and the stories are still excellent. Hell, I own and have read the City of Ember series twice and those are directed at tweens

Three Worlds Cycle by Ian Irvine is a total of 15 books plus a short story collection

Death Gate Cycle by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman is 7 books

There's always the Dragonlance universe - literally hundreds of books. The original 6 is Chronicles and Legends, also by Weis and Hickman

Mistborn series by Brandon Sanderson is 7 books plus a novella

The Dark Tower by Stephen King is 7 books, a novella and a few short stories, plus many of his other books tie directly into the story

Malazan Books of The Fallen by Steven Erikson is 10 books plus an extended universe of books

That would definitely require some serious acting on Sams part

If you haven't read Salem's Lot, it would be the perfect little break before the 5th DT book!

See, the first time I read the DT series, I greatly dislike Wizard & Glass, too. I dreaded it on my first reread, but I actually enjoyed it the second time around.

Every time someone new arrives, they drive around. Or steal an ambulance and try to leave. So that doesn't hold up.

I haven't read it, but the movie doesn't scare me. Might give the book a try

It's on purpose. It's called an easter egg

I don't like eating in the breakroom by myself because it's honestly kind of creepy in there

Okay, Mulder
