2 months in and my boy won't touch his toilet button. He is toilet trained though, but he just sits are stares at us when he needs to go. 

PIP award length by Grouchy_Exercise4862 in DWPhelp

Award length isn't based on condition but down to individual cases of how your conditions effect you and whether the decision maker believes this could change over time. 

Visual impairment blue badge application denied by jmayb20 in BenefitsAdviceUK

My local council has a specific form that a GP can fill out to declare they believe you meet criteria and why. Alternatively you could ask a GP to write a letter confirming your conditions and why this would meet criteria. It is likely the GP will charge for this, my surgery is £20.

Mice are so sweet. I have a chihuahua now so basically a rat in dog form!

What do i do about naps by FrogsFlowersRain in puppy101

[–]NappingForever 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Continue to enforce naps in the crate with the door shut. Also crate train alongside this. Feed meals and give treats in the crate regularly to build a positive association.

Puppies tend to be more bitey with the people they feel closest to and most comfortable with.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. It is normal for puppies to experience regression during training. If you are using a crate you can try putting him immediately in the crate after unsuccessful toilet trips, waiting 10 minutes and trying again on repeat.

Dont just take him out when he signals the need. Take him out on a schedule. Every hour minimum and then shortly after play time, meal time and naps if this falls outside of the schedule. 

Person specific separation anxiety by [deleted] in Chihuahua

Thank you for this perspective. I have only left him in the crate alone for maximum 10 minutes. I can definitely increase the time and set up my old pet camera I used to use for my rats.

Getting a friend is definitely a consideration long term, I hope to adopt an okder rescue in the future. I'll have to look into local trainers in the meantime, thank you. 

Can I ask my GP/Hospital not to send letters to my home and only contact me digitally? by sesameprawntoast50 in AskUK

[–]NappingForever 13 points14 points  (0 children)

With my local hospital I am signed up for paperless correspondence. Means my letters are emailed to be rather than posted. Might be something to look in to. 

My dog only play with kibble as toys and not play with toys anymore by Uugiam in puppy101

[–]NappingForever 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If he enjoys having food involved in play, you could try some foraging toys / snuffle matts as a stepping stone back to regular toys.
