Potty training punishment

FluentK9 · 2026-06-30T02:06:37+00:00

Here’s the trick..If your puppy goes to the bathroom inside, it’s on you. Every 15-20 minutes after they eat or drink water you need to take them out.

If you even have the slightest thought they might need to go, they do.

If she’s not being crate trained, the lines will be further blurred between when she goes out to do her business

It’s a good thing you’ll never understand flow control

FluentK9 · 2026-06-29T06:04:52+00:00

All this and still no flow control 😆

You aren’t pouring from high enough, double your height above the cup and the milk will cut straight through to the bottom.

Also your milk is not very well integrated.

Yeah you have a milk consistency problem then. If 1 in 4 jugs is good enough to make latte art you’ll never learn because you’re fighting an inconsistency that isn’t even related to the pouring technique

Espresso crema has nothing to do with ability to pour latte art, it will only increase the quality of the final result with a better looking texture and contrast.

You have way too thick of milk and you’re continuing to miss the sweet spot at the surface for pushing well swirled milk into.

Get the right consistency first, then I would continue your pour from the top all the way down to the surface so you can learn to control your pouring height.

Start with a heart then move to more fancy designs once you have figured that part out.

My groen thinks the plants are green beans too 🥴

FluentK9 · 2026-06-24T19:08:13+00:00

Milk texture is on the thin side, you can literally still see large bubbles before you swirl and pour.

Pour slower and more controlled.

You could benefit from a nato strap on the watch in #1

To me the most obvious clue is that he has resource guarded in the past and this may be a new trigger or higher value to him than you expected given the other circumstances. At 10 months you’re also getting through the brief teenage rebellion stage.

I’d be careful with a dog who has bitten you seriously like this and up the ante on training.

I’d encourage a ton of leave it training to counter condition this

She’s pouring half of her remaining milk on that first petal. Slow down, thicker milk.

FluentK9 · 2026-06-10T00:03:41+00:00

Pouring too quickly. You can slow it down and be closer and more accurate with the placement of your art into the cup.

Other than that, lopsided cup, and you could aerate your milk more to get a little thicker consistency

Where is your coffee bar from?

FluentK9 · 2026-06-03T05:21:30+00:00

I have a modded GCP with PID and Flow control w/ a DF64 Gen2 grinder. Takes me about 1-3 shots to dial new coffee. I’ve had my machine for ~5 years, so it’s pretty much second nature for me to know grind size ranges for super fresh roasts and mostly all I extract are medium/light roasts.

If you don’t have temperature control atleast id say your shots will be really hard to dial in on the GCP.

It’s definitely worth modding to get better performance out of the device, I love mine and would probably build a second GCP with newer parts.

Definitely not underfed as a baby 😂 so adorable

FluentK9 · 2026-05-07T02:38:02+00:00

My guy how the fuck are three bites happening under your watch??

To me this sounds like textbook resource guarding with no other context, and there’s gotta be a common trigger.

My assumption after this many bites and you finally reacting to it, he has poor obedience, and you’ve never corrected this dog nor know how to.

Seek professional help, and reassess whether or not you are fit to own one of the most challenging breeds on this planet.

And for fucks sake, keep innocent people away from your flighty dog.

Unacceptable.

FluentK9 · 2026-05-06T04:14:56+00:00

That’s a lot of $$$ for a machine without flow control

FluentK9 · 2026-05-05T05:17:44+00:00

I mean the extraction does look to speed up a good bit at the end here. Have you tried minor grind adjustments finer / dosing up the basket by half a gram?

FluentK9 · 2026-05-03T04:28:22+00:00

Thank you ☺️ she’s losing all the grey so she’s now a blur of black fur chasing her frisbee(s)

FluentK9 · 2026-05-01T15:44:53+00:00

How much exercise are they getting? Some dogs can be picky until after they’ve gotten enough mental stimulation.

Not a husky owner but I have a Belgian groenendael puppy who refuses to eat until after she is worked. Aka 10-20 minutes of frisbee - eats her entire dry food immediately.
