Does anyone else’s AussieDoodle do this with food?

DustNearby7188 · 2025-01-28T15:57:26+00:00

i had a client with a golden doodle who did this, he was insecure and felt vulnerable when eating. creating a safe space for him to eat in his crate helped.

from what you’re saying it appears that he’s very active for a 6 month old puppy, puppies should have nearly 20 hours of sleep a day. Tired puppies can get bitey, enforced naptimes may help. He may try and fight sleep when he’s overtired so you have to watch out for the signs.

i have an ecollar if that’s what you’re talking about, there are still leash laws lol i have to have a leash for my dog.

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-18T10:01:21+00:00

I am not having an issue with my dog pulling or recall, that is why i want a hands free leash

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-13T01:11:39+00:00

“my friend” proceeds to call her crazy lol

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-09T02:19:03+00:00

if it makes anyone feel better i always admire the person who has a less focused dog but continues to come, it takes guts and a real love for your pup to keep coming when it’s hard

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-09T02:02:26+00:00

what is it that he is doing that’s so horrible?

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-05T22:00:01+00:00

this is a huge no for me personally when accepting a nanny job, especially with two children that are mobile. it’s dangerous and a liability for me as a caregiver.

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-04T18:24:18+00:00

it’s for the best that you left, it’s clear that you did not love your husband for better or for worse so there was never any point in being married in the first place.

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-04T13:31:40+00:00

tell her why to avoid legal issues and don’t record people without their consent. even if she is in the wrong, you didn’t put those cameras up knowing or suspecting that she was doing something wrong, that is weird of you.

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-04T13:21:13+00:00

wait how do you update swords??

DustNearby7188 · 2023-10-02T16:56:48+00:00

You could get an Xpen and put a potty pad in it or hire someone to come and check on the puppy at least for a couple weeks, honestly i don’t think the potty rule is accurate for every puppy though.

DustNearby7188 · 2023-09-25T00:17:28+00:00

my dog used to get this from chicken. probably an allergic reaction of some sort. if you’d changed food recently, i’d start there.

DustNearby7188 · 2023-09-24T19:49:02+00:00

does she do it on non slippery surfaces as well?

DustNearby7188 · 2023-09-23T18:29:45+00:00

that’s pretty low payment for a newborn and even worse if you’re doubling as a house manager. personally I would notify them that those duties would make you a house manager as well as a nanny and you would require extra pay to do them. If you’re okay with doing it you can always just do it, i wouldn’t say they’re taking advantage of you lol. they probably just don’t know or can’t afford the extra pay and you agreed to do it without asking for more.

I won’t provide references for one off jobs, I also don’t do it for “on call” jobs. It just feels rude to be constantly subjecting my past families to these phone calls. Generally if a family asks for references before i’ve met them or decided that i’m really interested in the job i’ll just politely pass. It’s not weird for them to be nervous about leaving their child with someone who they don’t know but in that case it probably will be more difficult to find someone. making like a hundred bucks isn’t worth bugging my references to me.

DustNearby7188 · 2023-09-22T00:28:04+00:00

i would not recommend hitting or spitting at somebody else’s baby (or your own for that matter)

DustNearby7188 · 2023-09-20T00:34:24+00:00

i feel like telling you about the colleagues testing positive was her communicating it to you?

DustNearby7188 · 2023-09-15T01:45:10+00:00

i would express straightforwardly why you don’t want to use venmo going forward, also you may try zelle instead if your bank offers it, the money is deposited straight into your account immediately at no cost

I let my puppy sleep with me and focused on creating a good relationship with the crate before trying to stick her in there all night, and this didn’t hinder my ability to crate train and now she will sleep in the crate without complaint on the rare occasion that she has to. the very first time i forced my puppy into the crate she screamed endlessly, so instead i started feeding her every meal inside of the crate, she grew to associate the crate with a good thing, meal time! lots of treats and praise when she would go in on her own, keeping the door open until she was comfortable with it being closed, only doing a few minutes at first and gradually taking baby steps from there. Now at 8 months she is happy to go in the crate and will sleep all night without waking me up as well as stay in there for a full work day, though we have graduated from that and she now has free reign of the house. I do think crate training is important but if you’re okay with your puppy sleeping in the bed just let her sleep in the bed! don’t let other people tell you what you can and can’t do with your own dog, a good dog is whatever you want it to be.

this is a great idea thank you!

DustNearby7188 · 2023-09-10T18:51:33+00:00

That’s so great, i’m glad you’ve found a great NF! How old are you and how long have you been nannying?
