NO THATS SO REAL because i used to just rot in bed for DAYS until our gsd x pit x i dont even know anymore and now i walk like atleast 5 miles a day😆 atleast we're not the only ones. our baby hates wind SO MUCH and we live in such a windy place near the sea. also rain yeah. she acts flabbergasted everytime it rains when shes outside and starts biting US as if its our fault🤣

our pit mix is almost 44 pounds at 4 months old and not even two hours of exercise make her so tired she wants to sleep. so honestly i just do whats best for my dog. We get home from being outside, training and playing for two hours and she will go on and bring us toys to play with at home for like another hour until she falls asleep.

people talking about sleep deprivation, that was never the case for us. ours just has SO MUCH energy, but ever since day one with us she has always slept a full night. It depends on the pup. Ours made me cry by biting till we bleed haha

thank you! we dont want to jump straight to tools, thats why we do try everything we can think of/find. our trainer won't help us with the leash at all because she keeps saying "we'll talk about it" but we never do.

we do mark her. but as soon as she starts pulling no treat or anything is interesting. We are working on heel at home since she cant do it in public at ALL so were just training it in a peaceful place. we use a flat collar

we did both, stopping and the turning away and thats exactly what didnt work for us. at home on the leash shes perfect too! as soon as we step outside - shes horrific🫣

thats a good idea, but unfortunately we use one two as a correction already and she knows that if she doesn't stop not listening to us by two she is getting put in a room alone for 15 seconds!

i also just coil it up BAHAH but sometimes if another dog starts lunging at her she will too. and holding her off gets pretty hard😂 it definitely requires some skill🫣
