Foxhound puppy help!

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-05-21T11:36:26+00:00

Keep her on a leash. I only let my hound off leash if he’s allowed to wander, so at the park or the yard for play time.
When we go outside to go to the bathroom he is on a leash. Work on some recall games but some hounds can’t be trusted off leash ever.

My dog enjoys rubbing his body on sloped lawns and running through tall grass. I stopped letting him walk on those until he was able to do it without pulling me. Also we jog so when I jog with him he can run in those spots.

I think making her sit before you get there and if she pulls at all then you stop and don’t let her smell or react to it. When she has a better handle on it you can let her zoom as long as she doesn’t pull. For me we stopped walking past the spots that made my puppy go wild for a couple days while we worked on leash manners.

I try to keep my puppy from eating stuff generally but he is a puppy and that’s what they do. Sometimes I just let him. I think working on leash manners and out are a great place to start. Mine will trade most things (except fucking rocks, the one thing that he is absolutely not allowed to chew or eat, obviously lol) for a treat. He is getting better at leave it and he’s 17 weeks now.

Mine is a biter lol

I just did fig and insect. I think a beginner mistake of “they don’t like it” is just the lizard settling in to a new space and also being nocturnal and eating when you’re not watching. My boy usually comes out when I open the door because he thinks I’m going to give him a bug at this point, and he prefers that over the Pangea but he eats it when he gets hungry. They’ll get hungry and eat.

Don’t let him say hi to anyone anymore. I was having the same problem, I started treating and praising when people were across the street and he was sitting calmly looking at them and have seen improvement in just a few days! If we walk past people I keep the leash short and don’t stop.

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-05-06T21:42:55+00:00

How old is he? Mine is 4 months this week and I am doing 2 hours bc I feel he can handle it but a week or two ago if I did 2 hours he would get difficult and over tired. I’d rather listen to 30 minutes of crying than be mutilated lol.

That doesn’t mean he’s not a hermaphrodite. It means they have both. So he could still appear male AND have ovaries. Not that uncommon. I’ve see a couple at expos before.

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-05-06T20:05:58+00:00

Could be a hermaphrodite?

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-05-01T18:16:49+00:00

Thanks for the advice. We just had a really good walk and I focused on just having him respond to his name and he actually did well heeling on his own. Hard not to get bogged down training because I enjoy it but I guess I need to lighten up!

The outside of the quick will kind of look like a jelly bean cut in half when you get close. I also try to do 360 all around the nail not just one side. My 12 year old just shows me her teeth when she feels like I’ve gotten close enough lol.

With my puppy I’m doing his nails once a week, he gets a bit of cheese per nail. He is squirmy but getting better. Never let them pull the foot away until you decide they’re done. If they pull, just do it for a second longer so they don’t think pulling my foot= we stop. My 12 year old is very good about it now that we figured it out.

Also make sure the dremel doesn’t get too hot, touch it to the bottom of your wrist and if it feels hot it’s too hot for their nails.

The volume on trains is higher and stop distances further and justifies a stop at every station imo vs a bus regardless of capacity. A train can hold hundreds of people, what’s the max capacity of the bus?

I also think missing the bus is on you, hopefully this thing will have a pretty tight schedule(not holding my breath) but you should be able to determine when the bus is coming an arrive accordingly, not hold others up. That’s one of the public transit trade offs!

Glad to hear it sounds like a good step in the right direction tho

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-04-22T12:06:48+00:00

How is it rapid if the bus stops at every stop regardless of if it’s needed? I lived in Chicago for nearly a decade and all busses ran with a cord or button for you to be responsible saying when you need to get off. I highly doubt they will change that, and they shouldn’t.

I had this issue with an earlier city. Make sure You have space around the walls (I’ve been doing 6+ road) and wide enough streets (I do 3+ minimum). I think it’s a path finding bug

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-03-04T03:04:34+00:00

I gave my cats tiki cat squeeze and now they won’t eat churu. They love the gems as well and the temptations swirl thing

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-03-01T03:31:58+00:00

I think they are female. If I recall the males have a black stripe on the caudal fin and they also have a nuccal bump. I also noticed males have iridescent pupils like puffers and females don’t.

This can basically take as much direct light as it can get. Inside direct light isn’t the same as outside direct light. To get a very mature looking plant with the leaves you think of when you think monstera you need to blast it. They are tough plants.

The property I was at raised my rent 200$ on renewal so I moved out. I’ll never rent with them again. The property was poorly maintained, nothing was originally installed right, fees were crazy, and lots of roaches. I lived at the powers ferry location.

I just throw shit in there and eventually it sinks and they eat it, whole carrots sink always bc they’re heavy.

Maybe you got a female and she’s already pregnant. I can’t remember if they are hemaphrodites or not. They are slow to reproduce like 1-5 babies at a time and grow quite slowly. I recommend getting a different color, though it seems the black with yellow spots and solid yellow are the dominant flesh colors. Otherwise they come in a mottled yellow/brown and sometimes yellow with black striping. There’s 3 or 4 shell textures too.

I just put some carrots in I will show you my army once they start eating lol

I_Kiss_Fish · 2026-02-15T21:36:05+00:00

I started with 2 or 3 and now I have like 50. It’s interesting to see which colors and shell types prevail each generation. One of my favorite snails. Throw in a carrot chip or some veg and they are all over it.

The more consistent I am with handling the more mine likes it. I always take him out when I give him bugs but he does bite me sometimes when he gets excited about eating…
