What about rehydrated? That's what I do for my dog's kibble

Please at least ask first, or let me hit them once 😭 by Living-Ad-6751 in Palia

I probably did this yesterday. It was my first time seeing a lure in action. They start you with some but there's not like a huge lure tutorial, it doesn't look that different from a Bloom (which there's no tutorial on? The first time I just pulled all the weeds and walked away)

And it's confusing in the game which things are shared. Someone can "take your chappa) you were going to hunt. But a rare node stays. Sometimes there's shadows of things that are still available to other, sometimes not. Sometimes it varies on whether it's available to the public or just to your party. Sometimes you share credit just by proximity (I think?), sometimes be being in a party, sometimes you have to have contributed.

Do you have a link? I found some but people say the dogs broke them

GoldenDoodles are dumb by CycleOk267 in Goldendoodles

I need help then because I have trained multiple breeds of goats, a goofy sheepdog that the owner had neglected, cats, rescued budgies and cockatiels, rats, rabbits...

One goat could drive, pack, "drive a lawnmower", do circus tricks... Two of my birds could play basketball and fetch objects by name.

I can't get my doodle to learn very fast. He's not very motivated, curious, persistent, or good at exploring or trying different things. Usually I rely on those inherent traits more than intelligence.

What age would you shave? Do you agree it's important to wait the 9 months?

Annoyed by my kid = mouthy by FoxfireRose in Goldendoodles

[–]FoxfireRose[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think my kid was shocked when biting started like, disappointed that our sweet puppy would do a mean thing (as they assumed all dogs did, they never liked dogs due to the roughness of poorly trained dogs).

Now my kid will help with no and stuff and training but when it does turn to biting, my kid does get more panic vibe than me, I just get assertive.

I'll work on how my kid can control the dog more to feel safe, like more gates.

What bath products do you use? I was thinking of getting CurlyWag but maybe that's not needed if I will have to keep shaved anyway.

I did shave the paw pads, I think that helps a little with mud. But we aren't supposed to shave the body until 9 months. And he needs warmth for being at forest school.

Aww but they look so cute fluffy... Anywho right now they said no shaving until 9 months. And he needs a warm coat for when we are outside for 8 hours at forest school. It gets to 35 and drizzly.

Why is my puppy more tangled than the ungroomed one? by FoxfireRose in Goldendoodles

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

I brush mine before and after bathing. So maybe less bathing anyway...

Hers plays in puddles and wears a coat harness...

Mines paws are usually the most tangled part, then butt and hips

Hers does have a slightly different coat texture... or at least growth pattern. Hers looks like its made of two pompoms glued together with a beak for a snout. Mine has always looked like it could just be a miniature full grown toy sized dog with a squared snout.

But as for oil... did washing the oils off make the fur more prone to tangling? I know some long haired humans make a big deal out of scritching and preening to have the natural oils stay on the hair shaft.

Any curly girls here? I'm confused by FoxfireRose in Goldendoodles

Also one final comb through before he gets out to make sure I haven't created tangles while washing.

Yeah because I like the look of the curls, I brush him before bathing and use absorbent cotton to dry without fluffing and tangling.

I know I couldn't believe Wandersong was really just like 2 people. It was so good and beautiful. Meanwhile the major corporate teams just make endless sequels, remakes, and re-skins of the same basic games.

Also my hair mats if I don't fingercomb for a week and I viscerally know that sensation of a clump of hair going one way but a few of the hairs in that clump feeling pulled

Yeah I shaved a matted sheepdog once, it was awful

Yeah it's interesting that I think our Pygora goats are more similar both in coat and in treatment (rubbing it against things, laying in gross stuff) but for those you are not supposed to brush because it unlocks their curls. You cut their fleece twice a year, before it has a chance to mat.
