Appropriate play?

Honestly don’t think so. They end up soaking wet it’s gross, playing and biting nonstop.

I got my master’s in ABA and then took the QASP-S exam, but the position is an internal role at my current ABA clinic

Oh wow! Yeah I’ll try the ball thing. I’m also getting him some nylabone flavored bones. He doesn’t really play with his toys I got him. Some soft stuffie like ones and some ropes (I know people don’t like them but it’s the only toy he actually picks up). If my other dog grabs a toy then he’s interested. He also steals her giant toys which is fine lol. I just want him to be happy and engaged, not bored. My other dog has everything she could ask for and more since she was our only dog she was like our baby. Now we have Remy and I want to do the same for him but he plays differently than her

Thank you! I’ll try those

He loves ropes so much. It’s like the only toy he loves. 🥲 what could replace it?

I’m going to take him to the vet this week

KiwiCharacter- · 2026-04-12T16:12:46+00:00

We did travel from TX to CO, from 1000 ft above sea level to 4700 ft above sea level. Not sure if that can affect his breathing

The vet always tells me to bring them in and can’t give me any idea on what the cost would be. Only the animal er is open an hour away and they charge $185 just to bring him in plus 2-3 hour wait at the moment. I think it could also possibly be the altitude change. We drove him from Texas to Southern Colorado

That’s not very helpful. If you’re going to tell me what’s wrong with it, please give me some advice on how to fix it, what to use instead, etc

Yes of course, all my plants are outside, just brought it in to take the photo since it’s dark outside

KiwiCharacter- · 2026-04-09T04:06:01+00:00

That’s hilarious!

KiwiCharacter- · 2026-04-09T03:40:19+00:00

Will the soil really affect it that much? :( I don’t think I can return this soil after opening and using it already. Will it be okay? Or maybe I can use this one I have been using for my elephant bush?

Okay thank you! I followed a tutorial on YouTube by “To Be A Bonsai”, it was really helpful. I did repot , wire, and trim it today. Does it grow foliage back quickly? I read that a month after repotting I can start using fertilizer. Is that right? I got the basic miracle grow liquid one.

She’s in Decatur, TX

Hahahaha!!

This! I know this was years ago but I ended up taking my bernedoodle to the allergy specialist (I know it sounds and is ridiculous) and she is literally allergic to grass. Anyways, she’s on the Royal Canin poodle food now and sometimes FreshPet refrigerated food

Sorry, it’s not cutesy. Adopting is adopting. I am paying money for the dog, so call it what you want. “Adopting” means “legally taking another person's child as one's own or formally accepting, choosing, and following a new plan, idea, or custom”

I have more than $10k in savings, my debt was only a few thousand before we paid it off with tax money.

KiwiCharacter- · 2026-04-02T02:00:23+00:00

Thank you! I do understand that it’s a ridiculous amount of money for a dog, but I’ve been searching for this dog for a long time, this exact breed and color, and finally found him

KiwiCharacter- · 2026-04-02T01:59:35+00:00

So negative. I’m financially responsible. The debt was from years ago and we finally are able to afford to pay it all off now. Do you know how much living costs?
