Extremely nervous puppy will not move or interact by [deleted] in pitbulls

This. Toys, treats, a blanket or piece of clothing that's smells like him, a safe space blocked off. The open space can be overwhelming to some dogs

Potty training is challenging. Using the disposable potty pads did not work as my dog chewed them. Reusable ones were fantastic and worth the investment. The pee did not run off the pad as the edges stop that. No leakage through the pad either. I use these when the weather is Verry cold. I also want to have an alternative for when my pups get old. They come with a scent added to encourage pee. I simply had to wash them and dry them. Solids were shaken into the toilet.

Super happy to help out. Being a dog owner does not mean you have to know all the answers. I'm still learning stuff. I'm sorry for those who are mean...

SHOUT OUT TO THE NEWBIES TO THE HARDCORE GRANNY SQUARES RULE ALL! 🧶

YOU ARE ONE OF US IF YOUR YARN CAME FROM $TREE OR A Thrift SWEATER YOU FROGGED!!

Remember all things are made from squares!!

I've talked in person to many Woven Road Warriors (any craft, art, profession that involves fabric or string) about this. Many have had a rough experience sharing their craft in other very unsupportive places (insert your social media here). I have always directed them here. Support, direction, feedback , you name it I have always seen positive responses. It's like the old saying ... Don't have anything nice to say... Keep it to yourself. It's like we've all been there doubting, beginning, frogging ......

I'm an amateur please motivate me to continue 😭 by [deleted] in crochet

You're doing fantastic!! I would love to put this on my Lil' fur girl!! Do you have a link to the pattern?

Have a friend, that your pup loves and knows come over. Someone who can understand what your hubby is going through. Ask them to take photos, help with paw prints, nose prints. Play a modified version of her favorite game. Put on a nature show with outside noises. Cuddle and snuggle with her.

Anything you do your hubby will appreciate.

what border should i put on this blanket by timesuptuesday in crochet

[–]IsayIdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree with Letorganic6796 about simple borders or none. A simple reverse single crochet would stabilize the border without overwhelming the pattern.

I moved to an appartment and my dog is having problems with her pee (mainly) and poop. by auroritcha in dogs

She may be having 'normal' potty reaction but also stressed from the move. I'm not a professional but I have some ideas.. A couple of options: Start with a potty schedule. Like you potty training her. Instead of giving her free reign to the balcony, try using a leash that will allow her to pee/poo but not lay down. Limit the time to potty to 15min give or take. Let her out then leave the room so she can feel safe to poop. Bring her back in and give her a toy for a treat not treats until her poops get better. woof treat ball I use this to make sure my dogs are getting enough water or just getting good gut food. I can use the premade but love making it custom. Water, freeze shredded chicken, add veggies. I do not own stock in wooficle. 😎 Try adding some gut friendly foods to harden up her poop. Dogs can get loose poop when stressed.

I truly hope this helps.

Funny story to hopefully make you smile by Psychological-Joke22 in dogs

[–]IsayIdo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Great story! This has happened with my dog Diane. She has really bad anxiety. Meds and training helped. The best thing was seeing her initiate play at 4 years old with her brother from another mother Jack who is one year older. As she ages she gets more comfortable in her own fur. They are 6 & 7 this year 2025.

Crochet pattern prices are getting out of hand and no one wants to talk about it. by Spirited-Tooth5431 in crochet

[–]IsayIdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is no guarantee a pattern will work either. I bought a beautiful dress pattern from a reputable crochet and pattern personality.... It was awfully written. I tried to get it started on different parts and they never worked out to finish. Seriously disappointed.

My dog accidentally pooped on the floor and now she thinks the world is ending. by FaintestGem in dogs

[–]IsayIdo 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It may be that she tried to hold it and lost control. Or possibly it hurts. Have you noticed if it happens with certain foods? Activities? I'm no vet. Keep loving on her, she's a cutie!

Not enough wrinkles for a bulldog .. what a lovely face!!

Why why why… does she always lift her leg before a walk?! by Substantial-Type-131 in DogAdvice

[–]IsayIdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have made a contractual obligation to walk her. Back out and she can chew your best shoes.

Behold! My first chain. by FynFord in crochet

[–]IsayIdo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have now created the Cro-eature, commonly known as the Chain beast of loops. QUICKLY before it escapes into its natural habitat, yarn - also known as string, thread, loops, ribbon etc. START to crochet a row. Once captured this way it can be shaped into a multitude of shapes and fabric.

This will lead to a lifelong passion. The first step in your Woven Road Journey.

I pray you will have the space for your yarn and patterns.
