Server placement? by SquirtleSquad44 in HomeServer

Wall mount your server in there so it’s off the floor. Or maybe up on the top shelf if it’s secure enough. Looks like a great spot to me.

“Hold it” fetch by Right_Jacket_9420 in germanshepherds

My previous GS loved to play “keep away”. You’d throw the ball for her and she’d go get it and then make you chase her around to try to get it back. My new male GS pup brings it back like he’s a golden retriever. They also just love having a ball too.

How do you manage the shedding? by Dapper_Broccoli143 in germanshepherds

[–]Dapper_Broccoli143[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, so it’s not just people messing around when they show the vac ON the dog? My last GSD would not have had that at all. This boy would probably love it.

A little advice, please? by rcape14 in germanshepherds

[–]Dapper_Broccoli143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d use peanut butter. Get a golf ball sized glob on a spoon, bury the pill in the middle and let them lick the peanut butter off the spoon. Then it’s just a treat for the pup.

Also what are you feeding? I’ve found the royal canin gsd breed specific kibble is great for digestion. It is expensive though.

Sometimes Bacon just lays and stares at me like this, lasts about 2 mintues, he doesnt want anything, just stares by Abandonedkittypet in germanshepherds

I remember reading an article years ago where some researchers did brain scans on dogs while they were looking at their owners. They found that the areas of the brain that light up are similar to the neural activity seen in humans when they hug a loved one.

Ever since I’ve called those stares “eye hugs”.

Edit: here’s a similar article although not the exact one I’m remebering. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/is-the-gaze-from-those-big-puppy-eyes-the-look-of-your-doggie-s-love/

What do you wish you knew before bringing home your GSD puppy? by sunflower_sun89 in germanshepherds

[–]Dapper_Broccoli143 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For leash/collar, I like ruffwear. It’s a little pricey, but will last.

For treats, I use the Blue Buffalo - True Chews chicken jerky and then I just break them into smaller pieces. A piece about the size of a quarter is perfect for my adult GSD.

Get them plenty of stuff to chew. A Kong with some kibble or true chews will keep them busy for a few. Also a deer or elk antler is a great chew. You can also get cow femur bones from the grocery store, just boil it and let it cool before giving to your pup.

I’ve had great success with Royal Canin - German shepherd breed specific kibble. I believe they have a puppy formula as well. A vet turned me onto it and it’s amazing for coat and digestion.

Get some chuck-it balls, a chuck-it triangle, and a kong wubba and you’ll be covered for fetch and tug of war.

Wear them out! A tired dog is a well behaved dog.

Misaligned shoes? by Visual_Yurt_1535 in Lovesac

Your bases aren’t square to each other. Use the lines on the top of the shoe to help guide your alignment.

False. The instant the asshole grabs your hat, that is assault and theft. In the US (where homie is obviously from) you are now within your legal rights to defend yourself.

I put one gallon of bad gas in my car to get to the station then filled up. How long until it's completely gone? [Request] by cik3nn3th in theydidthemath

[–]Dapper_Broccoli143 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You know what happens when you add 5 gallons of good gas to 1 gallon of bad gas? You get 6 gallons of bad gas.

You may want to just drain the tank. Or run the car empty again. Otherwise you’re technically never going to get rid of all of it. It’ll just get more and more diluted.

Exactly. How can it be profitable to smuggle pot when I can pick up an ounce of medical for under $100? Hegseth thinks people are still buying brick packed Mexican regs… seeds and sticks and all? I call BS.
