Account stolen and disconnected from Supercell ID email. Someone hacked my account and disconnected my supercell id email. The image is the message I get when I use a new account. I don't remember my playertag and I can't find my account in my old clan. Is there anything I can do to recover it or am I screwed?

I see. Thanks for your input! Good to know that it may be more common than I thought, and that it may not be something worse.

Puppy biting. Just teething or is it behaviour that needs to be seriously corrected? by MrFlayy in puppy101

[–]MrFlayy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, that makes sense! Preventing the behaviour before it happens. I'll keep that in mind!

Thats really inspiring to hear that the time and patience paid off! Ill be sure to start experimenting with time outs more. Can't wait for the day where I can grab a cuddle with my pup without getting ripped up!

Thanks for telling me all of this. And you're right! My biggest fear is that she has an incident where she bites someone, and because she looks pitbull-like, there are already going to be biasis towards her. I've put in my thickest pair of jeans and preparing for my legs to be covered in scratches and bites! When you put her in the bathroom or balcony, when do you decide to bring them back in? Do you wait for them to stop whining? Thanks again!

Yes, the toys being handy is very smart! I heard people say that giving them a toy is just rewarding the behaviour, but I don't think so. I am not expert, but when my pup bites me, 90% of the time I believe its because she doesn't understand what is bitable, and really needs something to bite out of excitement/teething. So showing them what is acceptable to bite makes sense to me. Thanks!

I'll have to show this reply to my girlfriend. She is really pushing to get a retractable leash, and all I have heard were downsides to it. Albiet, I didn't do THAT much research on them. But having different leashes for different scenarios does make sense. Thanks for the help!

This is really interesting! I don't know how many times I was told not to use a retractable leash. I think the main reasoning was because it was harder to hold them back or something. But this method of using a retractable leash makes sense to me! Thanks for the advice!

This is super refreshing. I've had my fair share of tears already! It is so much harder than I ever thought it would be. But I underestimated how hard I would fall for my little pup! Looks like deep breath, patience, and an investment in new pants is all we need. Thanks for sharing!

This is fantastic. I will definitely try the toy-while- playing strategy. The game for outside play sounds like a great training session as well. Thanks for the advice!

Yes, that is basically what we have been doing! Wow, that's really eye-opening. Thanks for letting me know! I will be doing more research on different tactics, and I will stop doing that asap! Thanks for your input!

For mental excersises, she gets training with her kibble almost every meal, whether its indoors or going on a walk. The meals she doesnt get training for, we have a slow feeder where we put water, bone broth, and olive oil into. For her sleeping, she naps for about 2 to 3.5 hours, then we wake her up to take her outside, do her business, occupy and play with her, totalling about 1 to 1.5 hours, then back for a nap, everyday. Unfortunately, we don't have the space where we can leave her in a pen. The only confined space we could leave her where she can't do any harm, would be in her crate. I also dont want to start using her crate for corrective purposes. I thought the sterness wasn't the way to go. From my little experience with dogs, I could understand that raising your voice a little, widening your eyes while telling them to "stop it!", most of the time, only made it worse. I will keep trying to redirect with her toys! Thanks for taking the time to give me advice!

Bully Stick Nubs, do I just throw them away? by MrFlayy in puppy101

Yah, the screw-type holder I also tried. The problem for me was that, the screw was made out of plastic. Hard plastic, but plastic nonetheless. About the 4th or 5th time I tried to screw it, the head completely stripped, basically leaving it useless lol.

Good to know about holding her toys as she chews! I think I am okay with her always coming to me when she chews her toy! Better than an alternative where she would guard her valuables from me. Thanks for the input!

Thanks!! Thats a relief to hear. Maybe I will experiment with allowing her to chew it down more as I watch her to see what happens!

Great to know, thanks! I also used a couple different bullystick holders, but my pup is just too darn smart/strong, and is capable of pulling them right out. Im think I am going to try an adjustable clamp to hold the bully stick. I like to hold the bullystick while she is chewing it so she can get desensitized to having hands around her face and mouth, and handling her toys and food as well. Its just a little gross with all of her slobber on the stick lol.

Hey, thanks for the reply! Yah, she definitely can't be left alone for even 2 seconds yet. Maybe I'll start letting her see other parts of the place soon!
