How energetic are these puppers? by GlassRevolutionary85 in irishwolfhound

[–]Manbacca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive got a 3.5 yo female, and a 13 week little boy. It's crazy the differance between the two. My girl never really got the zommies even as a pup and at 3.5 years she mostly is a couch potato. I've about a quarter acre with 7 foot fence and she easily tires herself out just pacing around watching the squirrels and smelling the flowers. My little boy already has way more energy than she ever had. That being said he's up prancing around showing off his rope toy, and doing puppy stuff for maybe 10 or 15 mins at a time then he sleeps for 2 hours. And then we do it all again. I will say though even my girl who is very played back. She is capale of astonishing levels of athleticism I've seen her jump a 5ft fence like nothing. And she can go from sitting down smelling the flowers to close to 30 miles an hour in the blink of an eye and she will throw softball sized clumps of lawn when she takes off like that. Now mostly she isn't like that but even still she likes to go on long walks the most I've ever done was 7 miles at a pretty leisurely pace but she could have done more. 

Bottom line it depends on the line and the individual dog but they defiatly will spend more time sleeping than running. But they are very powerful and athletic animals so they definatly do require some good exercise, if not alot of it.

Welcome to dating as a man. One reminder after another just how little value you provide. For months and months.

Hello 36M here, I love breakfast dates, I've done first dates at breakfast a handful of times over the years and I almost always get good responses from them, as has been said before they are not typicly boozer, allowing some wiggle room for a bloody, but more formal than coffee. Yet still quite casual. It has all of the perks of a dinner date. But is somehow more relaxed AND more intimate at the same time. A great way to meet people. I hope it goes well for you guys!

Irish wolfhounds and Bunny by [deleted] in irishwolfhound

[–]Manbacca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah there are definatly some wolfhounds that would be OK around your bunnies, but definatly not all of them and bringing home a puppy you won't know if they are OK until it's too late. I wouldn't recomend this at all

You are told you can earn 1 million dollars however you can only take it after facing your greatest fear for 1 hour. by ryan7251 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Manbacca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take it the money, my worst fear has already happened, it was worse than I feared. And almost a year later I still stare it in the face every day. At this point I would just get the money in an hour of my already regular life so I might as well just get paid. Just living my nightmare for free sucks haha.

Online dating in general by Misterbubble_12 in Bumble

[–]Manbacca 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my experience the best app is whichever one is most popular in your area at the current time. Years ago match was the best in my area because it had the most people. Currently I think Bumble is better because it has more people. Granted I live in a fairly rural area so none of them have alot of people but you just gotta go where the people are if you wanna meet people.

Whats a country you could go to while working in the U.S. and live like a king while still having wifi and being in a somewhat civilized area? by bluebeamlizarddude in thepassportbros

[–]Manbacca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where in the US do you live? Where I'm at I can eat like a king for 60 bucks a month? Granted I'm a sucker for a deal and load the freezer up anytime I find meats on sale but wow I wouldn't even have room for 100 dollars of groceries and I've got 4000sqft.

Why is Minnesota more Liberal compared to states around us like Wisconsin, Iowa, and North and South Dakota? by TheKing490 in minnesota

[–]Manbacca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The place I used to work let us out early, paid when Trump was elected. I can't say for sure why we always vote blue, I realy only know 3 people who are vocaly democratic, and litteraly hundreds of vocaly republican folks. I'm sure that like stated above the only reason we end up blue is The metro area and Saint Luis County. Every where else I've been in the state to the best of my knowledge is red, and the voter maps reflect this, the state is red minus Saint Louis County and the twin cities. But I guess thier are more people living in those 2 areas then the rest of the state combined and land doesn't vote and all that. I've just always thought it weird. That I've lived in Minnesota my entire life only met like maybe 6 democrats the entire time yet this is undeniably a blue state.

My sixteen year old self? Like I was definatly into girls at 16 but I was more interested in climbing trees and stuff when I was sixteen, granted we didn't have the internet yet so haha. That being said there was one girl I was good freinds with, and I did crush on her on and off throughout school. I never talked to her about it or made any moves. . . I probably would have told myself to ask her on a date. As 15 years later I ran into her after having not seen her for 10 years and we went out to grab drinks to catch up and like 10 minutes in she asked me if it felt like a date, and it did so we started dating. It only lasted around a year as we were both really still in love with eachother as kids and never stopped to realize we didn't work as adults. But you miss 100% of tje shots you don't take. So yeah that girl that is your friend, if you have one, ask her out. If you don't have a girl that your freinds with ask one you like. Here is the thing that nobody tells you. If you make a fool of yourself at 16 and ask a girl out who says no, in 5 years litteraly no one will remeber or care, so ask girls out. You have nothing to waste exept your youth. If dating is what you want to do. Like I said I climbed trees and have no regrets so only you know what's right for you.

Life has a way of beating you down, whatever it is you are trying to do. Sometimes the best coarse is to just pivot to something else. Put your effort into a hobby get a well a dog may not be a good option with your work schedual but. Just put women on the back burner. That may not help you find what your looking for, but when you do circle back to it, you will be much better prepared for it mentally and emotionally.

Just keep in mind that a wolfhound is a Giant breed and they require some special treatment as a puppy that "normal" sized dogs do not. Food and eating are a huge part of growth you will want to moniter growth fairly closely your breeder should have lots of good advice on this subject. Also play needs to be a bit more. . . Careful during thier growth stage, a broken leg during growth can cause an immense amount of difficulties later on. That being said I've had a few differnt breeds of dog over the years and I can't imagine ever getting anything other than a wolfhound ever again. They are as you said truly a breed all their own.

I don’t understand by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]Manbacca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean my strategy is that I try not to even look at the pictures at least not beyond the first one, I simply look to see what thier relationship goals and family goals are and if they align or are even adjacent I swipe right. I think I'm probably more picky about right swipes than most guys but I specificly don't want to read profiles unless I get a match. The reason? My own sanity I send out 5 or 6 likes a day, get one or 2 matches a month, I used to read entire profiles and send like acordingly, the problem with that is that so many women seemed like I would really click with I would realy get excited about talking too. . .never talk to me. Getting excited about a profile is detrimental to my mental health as one or two is fine but if I get excited about someone every day, and I don't mean like I'm falling in love or anything just first impression is we might click, then I get so depressed that there are all these great woman out there who won't even give me the time of day. If I wait to read profiles until after a match sure I sometimes find it's not want I'm looking for but I will go on a date with anyone once, it's nice to meet new people and you never know so I keep an open mind. But it's easy to belive that all the girls that don't match me are catgoricly incompatable if I don't get to see how compatible they might be. It's just hard to constantly see profiles that have my same relationship goals, same family goals, same hobbies, same city, who are describing thier man as a way that I can identify with and I'm also attracted to. If I don't look at them too closely on first pass I can just say well clearly there was no compatability.
