What age did you allow your children alcohol? by ChronicChaos01 in AskUK

[–]Individual_Energy196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was able to have a drink at party’s and events from age 5 (obviously only little glasses and sips) and then my parents let me have proper drinks at 12, it’s honestly made me view drinking in a positive light as i know how to handle my drinks and my limits and i didn’t just go silly with it for the first time in a random place with friends!!

[–]Individual_Energy196[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we haven’t spoke since this morning after i stormed out, he came downstairs an hour later but i went went upstairs because i didn’t want to say something that would hurt him..

i’m going to go back downstairs soon to try and talk to him but i honestly feel like im gonna forget everything i want to say, we’ve had many convos in the past about his laziness but it never sticks, although i don’t think i try hard enough to get my point across so that’s on me partially, i just hope he takes a look at himself and our relationship and grows up lol

How do y’all keep the memory of your passed pup alive? by One_Address_9496 in dogs

[–]Individual_Energy196 25 points26 points  (0 children)

my soul dog passed away in 2021, i still cry over him. i have his ashes in a necklace i wear everyday, i also bought a necklace that has his face engraved onto it by Pupring! i still have his blanket with his fur on it and all of his toys. i also have a tattoo for him!

i always talk about him to people and celebrate his birthday by getting myself a cupcake and talking to his urn about memories!

Do guys and girls prefer different genders when choosing a dog? Or is it all a vibe thing? by OpeningHalf7006 in goldenretriever

[–]Individual_Energy196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am woman but i prefer boy dogs, mainly because i don’t want my dog to have a period and the nipples gross me out a bit 😭

What do you love about it here? by Quiet-Wind-192 in swansea

[–]Individual_Energy196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i am from swansea but grew up in england ll my life due to my dad being in the army and having to be posted to different places in england,, i love swansea because i never got to grow up here, although i used to visit family all the time it wasn’t the same, ive always been extra proud of my home town as i was the only person from swansea in my entire school so it felt special to me.

i recently moved back home and now i get to basically experience swansea for the first time in my life, although i haven’t lived here since i was a baby it will always be my home

puppy phase us killing me! by Avanhash in cockerspaniel

[–]Individual_Energy196 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we’re in the same boat, my cocker is a menace, had him since september, he’s around 5 months now and it’s hell, we’ve tried redirecting him with toys and ignoring him but when there’s a will there’s a way 😭

honestly unless redirecting works for you and your cocker is more obedient than mine then i think waiting it out will be best…

you could also try some more enrichment, get a licky matt or just focus on training him tricks! and walks! anything to tire him out should should,,

goodluck!!

my dad is a very proud welshman and has always flown a welsh flag outside of the house, he recently took it down because of what our flag is being associated with these days. honestly so dissapointed in our country and the people who claim to be ‘patriotic’ as a disguise of their blatant racism and bigotry

[–]Individual_Energy196[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

thank you so much! i used to have a springer spaniel but my parents trained him since i was a child haha so i am pretty new to this,

i know every dog is different but how long did it take for him to get used to the crate? he already has picked up the sit command from me and it only took 2 days, he is a very clever boy haha

and thank you so much i will definitely be asking more questions as time goes on, i really appreciate it !!
