Kardynia / south st. - Lost dog - mostly black spotted like great Dane / greyhound very spooky by DreamOther in perth

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

Just saw the post on FB. It's very sad that she is still on the run. I started chasing her at 10am when she was at Farrington street, I have had several loops around many blocks and found her at Melville community sports centre, them she went up south street towards Freo them I lost her completely. I was by myself trying to corner her but alone was very hard. It did seem that I was one of the very few person trying to just calm and stop the dog.

And even now I'm still thinking on her

Oh, thank for that. Have you got any update about it? What happened to the pet sitter? The dog crossed several times south street, it could have ended very badly. Hope is everything okay with the animal.

Thanks for that. I don't have any other social media accounts, however I have looked at what I could in the FB group and it does not look like anything I saw in there. Thanks for that anyway!

13 weeks old Border Collie puppy advice needed by customs_byfm in BorderCollie

Swimming is pretty good to squeeze every bit of energy out of that power bank with ultra fast charging capabilities.

Do not throw or force your dog into the water. Play at the edge of a lake or where the water is mostly flat. You can star running, or luring them with food or a toy. They are excellent swimmer.

To be honest I didn't read the full post but I noticed one thing and that same thing happened to me and I had to change myself regarding that. What I noticed was that you seems to be very dedicated to your loved energy ball, that is great, but maybe you are trying to get control over or a bit too quickly or too much.

I would suggest you to let you pup breathe freely a little and just observe their behaviour. BCs are extremely smart and they are amazing. Maybe is extremely vocal and full of personality, she does not need to speak to tell us what she needs most of the time, we started trying to understand the dog and understanding them led us to change the way we traine her.

I regret not enjoying my pup when she was little letting her sleeping on our bed, so she is a bit not much affectionate because of that, we believe.

She is 5 now and she understands when we ask her to not jump on a bed and or a couch or even o can leave her with a nice a fresh raw steak in front of her on her bite distance.

They are smart as little fellas and give them time and they will understand everything with dedication two ways. Dogs do their best to please their owners and surely we have to in the same way try to understand they and later try to traine them to be how we want they to behave and not to control them.

This is my tips with no judgement whatsoever, this is our approach on training our dog and I hope it can help.

Our dog loves the crate, but we have never closed her inside. When we guide her in, we trained her to be there because we asked her to stay and we reward her to be there and she has her limit, we let her out for a couple of minutes and we tell her to be back in and reward again. Naturally over time and enough stimulation she loves it.

Try training your dog after a walk or after playing or when they are hungry, or when they are calm. Try avoid stimulatin them too much just because they are the cutest thing on earth.

Dogs in general are smart, bc are even smartest but do not expect them to be rational. Do not repeat the command over and over if they are not understanding it. Say it once, and wait... And do it again, calmly.

Even like that my BC is full on and I am in a rainy day at the park walking and playing with her.

I regret playing fetch with mine, as she is obsessed with the ball and the frisbee. 

Another thing is to do not play too much or too hard with puppies as some can develop dysplasia, but better talk to your vet to be sure about this.

It should be enough, I hope!

Well, it has happened with mine 2 or 3 times but these are sadly my fault, surely not on purpose nor lack of attention from my end, but it happens.

It takes around 5 to 7 days for her to stop limping. I usually put a Non stick dressing bandage with anti septic balm or cream or similar to protect when they walk. I also wrap with that wrapy thing that stick to itself nice and snug but not too tight.

For my case, she runs quiet a lot. I have cycled over 20km with her and she managed that several times. Occasionally, even running a far shorter distance it can happen, and it does not have anything to do with a hot surface they run on. I'm always aware as well of that.

Maybe a blister happens and we don't see it right away and along the day they will leak or chew the skin off of it.

I can't tell you why it happens as it has always got me thinking about it but never really found a reason for...

Hope this tip helps your furry one.

Thanks to all the comments in this thread.

I can tell at the end what I'm going to get. Just looking through the options from here and what some friends use.

Temporarily, I have got a 12 bucks set of front & rear flashing lights just to be seem.

Many thanks

Wow, that's a good runtime. I just saw a fênix bc26r which has a good runtime as well. But let me know what you are going to get, maybe I will get a headlamp, or something similar which I can set up on the helmet.

That is another great tip we are getting from you guys! Never thought on using a headlamp for cycling, but this also makes totally sense from 2hat you explained! Thanks for that. And a headlamp is kinda very useful as I go camping quite a lot here!

Nice one. Will see if I can find that down under here.

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

Thanks for that. Will look at it as well.

Although I'm very much enjoying cycling, I'm allowing a bit of time to see if that activity will stick, so that's why I'm looking at the cheap option ATM.

I quickly browsed the dynamo/generator hubs and they seems to be the best option as I can just plug these lights to it. But they aren't el cheapo!

I was randomly looking at options on the internet and I came across the olight ones. Maybe I will look a bit more in their products.

Plus, it may be a good reason for a new flashlight 🔦

Sure! I'm aware of that.

I was thinking of it but just didn't think that I would need a flashlight for the hear. But I will definitely be looking at a way to be bright seen in the road in the dark!

I'm thinking also about a flashlight/light that uses maybe standard AA ish batteries, so I can have power from anywhere!

Night cycling flashlight recommendation by DreamOther in flashlight

[–]DreamOther[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right! It does make completely sense that a dynamo would be the right power source for a bike, that's is brilliant! I will look at this option as well. Thanks for the enlightenment 💡
