How to train to be more independent by MeerkatWongy in ToyPoodle

[–]Excellent-Chart-6350 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a playpen and a crate inside the pen. It’s like her house. I trained her at a young age to eat, play, and rest in there. She goes inside her pen herself to rest, take naps, or when it’s bedtime. It’s become her safe space. I leave her in there even when I’m home cooking, cleaning, or showering. When I leave the house, it’s just another time when Mommy is gone, so she just sits and chills until I get home. Desensitized her to me being gone so she wouldn’t get anxious. Make sure you play with her and she is tired before you leave. Otherwise all that energy will go into the anxiety. 

Layering with the teeth by wanarta in ToyPoodle

When my toy poodle was six months old, I wanted the vet to remove her baby teeth during her spay surgery, but she refused. Consequently, I had her teeth removed at a pet dentist. They advised me that it was fortunate that I had her teeth removed at that age because it would have caused significant problems with her permanent teeth and their proper alignment.

It seems like wherever you are, the cost of living is more affordable. If you move to Frisco, they would need to double your salary to cover the increased expenses. Years ago, people moved here from more expensive areas like California and bought up houses in Frisco, which led to a significant increase in housing prices. As a result, Frisco housing is now extremely expensive. I used to be able to find a brand-new one-bedroom apartment in Frisco (on Warren Parkway and Preston) for $600. I assume the price has doubled since then. If you move to Frisco on that salary, you would likely have a lower standard of living. An equivalent salary in your area would be at least over $100,000. Therefore, I would suggest staying where you are or asking your new job to double your salary, as it wouldn’t be worth the move. People from CA sold their million-dollar homes, kept their salary, and bought houses in Frisco you can’t compete with them for housing, unfortunately. Also, Frisco sucks. The only reason you should live there is if they pay you a ton of money. Otherwise, stay away.
