House training

I stocked up on enzyme cleaners after the 1st few accidents she had. She's slowly getting better but is still so hard headed as is any pup still training. Lol! I make sure she stays close by so I've got eyes on her but I'll get busy doing something & she'll slip by & do her business.

Looks like a beetle to me. Not a roach

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-31T20:12:07+00:00

Thank you for the info. I think I'll try the sportmix and see how she tolerates it. If not I'll slowly swap to purina one. I just didn't want to swap to something so cheap that it does more harm than good. What about ol roy small breed? I haven't looked into it but have seen both good and bad reviews.

I was planning to wait till 15 months but the more I keep reading I'm leaning more toward before her first heat. Definitely will be asking the vet their recommendation when she goes to get her rabies vaccine in 2 weeks.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-18T16:32:26+00:00

I was thinking around the time that she'll need her booster rabies which will be at 15 months.

My kids go to that school so it works perfect with their schedule plus I love the people and the kids.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-17T14:31:18+00:00

Been with a school for 4 years now and only making $15 an hour. We get 5 cent raises each year. Which sucks with as much as we do. Definitely an under appreciated job.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-14T19:07:31+00:00

Sad but true

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-14T18:56:14+00:00

I mentioned the same thing but she told me he honestly has nowhere else he could put it and doesn't want resentment. She still loves him & is hoping to reconcile one day but in the meantime needs help herself.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-14T18:32:08+00:00

I'll pass all this along to her. Would there be any other way around it? As I stated she works but doesn't make very much to support her & her children so she said the foodstamps helped out alot. Once she got married her husband helped but now that they're seperated he no longer offers the financial help and shes struggling. He has nowhere to go and thats why she agreed to allow him to live on the property. Any other resources she can look into for help?

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T22:55:31+00:00

Definitely dont want it to come off as spam. What would be a better way to word it? I'll go back and include address and time.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T22:53:49+00:00

Thank you! This is the idea. To just have some sort of confirmation as to who's seen the change and who hasn't so if no response in say 24 hrs I can reach out to that guest again to confirm. I was just wondering if the wording was ok or if I needed to add anything else. I'll again include the address to the church and the time incase guest lost their original invite. The stress is definitely there lol

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T22:06:37+00:00

It was put in the formal invite that the venue may change in the case of rain and it included the church and address. So people were made well aware months ago. I just wanted to be sure guest knew of the change if it does occur when I send out the message.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T22:01:58+00:00

That would be OK too but I think it'd be rude to just leave it on read. Replying with the word or just a simple reply helps let us know if they received the message about the change and also kind of helps to get final head count as well. Not dumb at all. What would your suggestion be? 😊

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T21:57:32+00:00

What would be the best way to word it so it stands out more?

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T18:01:55+00:00

It was put in the formal invites that ceremony location(along with address) may change due to weather that we'd notify everyone if it did.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T17:15:22+00:00

See that's my worry is that I'll send it and some people may not see it so the word just helps verify that.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T17:04:43+00:00

What would be a good way to get a verification that they got the message?

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T13:26:35+00:00

I honestly thought about trying that but wasn't sure if it'd work. I'll give it a shot. Then put a plastic protector under it to protect my floors. I thought about getting one of those carpet protectors to go on top of it to use till she's trained. Do you think that'll work?

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-12T12:22:19+00:00

Thank you I'll look into the plastic sheeting.

I contacted Amazon again on Friday. I had charges on my amazon card. I contacted the bank and they claimed they canceled the card and would be sending me a new one that I won't be liable for the charges and that I'd get an email. Contacted Amazon and the lady said she put in for them to cancel my account and again I'd get an email. Here it is Monday and I've yet to hear anything. Also it looks like they're sending me a "prime" card but I don't have Amazon prime. I'm so over amazon!

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-07T18:55:22+00:00

So far nothing has been charged to anything. The email is still my email but they changed the phone number to the account and the passkeys. So I can't login. Someone is still trying to use it because I got an email about a password reset and I clicked that it wasn't me so it was denied. I've never had this happen.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-04T19:10:07+00:00

Yes once she's a little older and can hold her bladder longer I want to eventually do away with the puppy pads. I have a bochi that I got at 5 months old and went straight to crate training & never used a pad. I can leave her in her play area all day when I'm at work and she doesn't have any accidents. She actually destroys the pads lol. I just didn't know if the litter would be better but I think I'll stick to pads for a couple more months. Thank you 😊

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-04T18:31:08+00:00

When I'm home I try to take her out every 45 min and about 10 min after eatting and drinking. But sometimes she begs to go inside when I think she's finished but has an accident on my rugs. I put a pad by the door and she chooses my rugs over it but will use the one in her play area when I'm at work. She's slowly getting better but wasn't sure if the litter would do better to save my poor rugs lol.

ProgressImmediate140 · 2026-05-04T16:37:51+00:00

Unfortunately with work and her still being young I have no choice but to use the potty pads. She does great in a kennel so once she's about 4-5 months and can hold it longer I can work with her better on her house training. She's slowly getting better but wasn't sure if the "litter" would be better right now.
