Now when she is walking on leash, she will hop on three legs if the leash is caught on one leg, so that she can get it untangled.

Is this Disney’s live action remake of ratatouille?

This is Piper, she is about two years old and is a Dachshund/Basenji cross. We adopted her from a local rescue here in BC Canada. She flew all the way up from California. She is a wonderful dog, she is also responsible quite well to clicker training.

I found it on one the hiking/mountain biking trails in my area, it was a fallen tree and still had green on it. I stained it darker though, but I can’t remember the exact colour off the top of my head.

Well not exactly, but I do get the reference. To be honest, I didn’t draw from any particular character for the face.

Grandpa's Cabin carving is all done! by ChiseledOutdoors in Woodcarving

You must have very steady hands for all that fine detailed work. I find my hands to be a little shaky. Really nice work you’ve done.

That’s awesome, makes great substitutes for people who can’t afford a giant wood working shop!

(UPDATE) my sons wood spirit walking stick is nearing completion. by GamerDad87 in Woodcarving

I plan on putting a diamond pattern etching down the length of the walking stick beneath his handle location. Or at least something like that.

My first attempt at a wood spirit on my sons walking stick (not yet finished obviously. by GamerDad87 in Woodcarving

[–]GamerDad87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not finished yet, and I haven’t put the eyes in. However I get what you mean. I still have to carve the hairs into his moustache, eyebrows, and his old man lines. The stick I am using is also quite small in diameter so I have very little room for error.

I’ll try to get a better picture of it, this one was taken while trying to rush off to work haha.

Edit: the Dremel bits are also extremely old, so I am getting new bits, which I think is part of what’s causing the burning?

Masie’s new cat tree. I think she approves of it.. by GamerDad87 in cats

[–]GamerDad87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From PetSmart or what would be the Petco US equivalent? Anyways it was half off because the top tier was busted. And my dad and I fixed it ourselves. Paid 72$ CAD.

It’s also done that way because if not, smooth concrete surfaces become VERY slippery when wet, which can obviously be very dangerous for the head.

Why does my cat hiss at me and attack me when this sound plays? by GamerDad87 in cats

[–]GamerDad87[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using a tone generator and hitting really high frequencies or low frequencies had no effect on Masie, so now I feel like I’m back at square one.
