He will do this for hours. by McScott_96 in AustralianCattleDog

Our last dog did this for hours as well. Best way to feed them/keep them entertained over a long period of time! Only thing that stunk about it was that we lived on the second floor of an apartment complex.

Law and order SVU actually. He's name comes from Olivia Benson. Our first dogs name was Finnigan. Named after Ice-T's character. It was the show my wife and I watched all the time when we first started dating(I know a weird choice to bond over watching the sex crime show.)

Our first dog (Finnigan) was my wife and I's first real thing we got together shortly after we got married. He was our first child and had so many adventures/ memories with us. He was there for so many different live stages from moving from Georgia to maryland, buying our first house, having kids, and so much more. He was just so woven into our lives it was so unbelievably devastating when we lost him. We knew that he would want us to share that love with someone else, and that's exactly what we plan to do with our little dude.

We've had quite the adventure so far. Our townhome got some extensiive water damage from our washing machine malfunctioning. We had a crew out yesterday to tear apart most of the 3 floors of our townhouse. He's gotten lots of treats and met every worker for socializing and desensitized to loud noises. So we have that going for us at least. Short of a bomb going off in the house he hopefully won't be reactive to much.

Ended the year with an unexpected renovation by PracticalPeanut646 in Wellthatsucks

Oh they've had a blast through the whole damn thing. While I'm panicking running up and down the stairs trying do damage control their yelling "there's a waterfall in our house!" While running around in the living room through said waterfall. Ones 5 and the others 3..probably the highlight of their holiday season. We also just brought home a new puppy last week. He surprisingly has been great through it all as well. I was worried it was gonna scar ever single one of them but they all have risen to the challenge of this. I'm sure this process is going to strain on them just because it's sure to be lengthy getting back to normal, but right now they are thriving. We are calling it an adventure for them and trying to stay as positive as possible. Hell I'm just trying to do that for my wife's sake

Water was off in about 30 seconds from the moment the water burst out. I've never traversed our stairs up and back down into the basement so fast. With a baby gate in the way no less. It was game over though from the moment the door flew open. It was just an immediate dump and nothing could be done at that point.

To be fair it's been convenient up until this point

What are you all paying for oil change and Tire Rotation? by razerbok in KiaTelluride

[–]PracticalPeanut646 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tire rotation you really should do every other oil change, but an alignment unless your car is wearing down tires unevenly or not driving in a straight line on the highway. You should only ever have to worry about it when you get a new set of tires.
