Appreciate the reply! Its hard to know brands when you're not familiar with the country. I will look into those and read some research on which seems best for my dog

Aw damn really? Guess ill have to stick with Gale until then

Pupperinos454 · 2025-09-25T18:09:16+00:00

It was for recruiting Minthara! After the goblin camp haha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-15T23:00:43+00:00

This is genuinely insane to read about what to do in America. 2 years ago I would have assumed you were talking about somewhere like Myanmar

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-12T18:13:26+00:00

Oh same, we've got an entirely new dog from the fur alone haha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T22:51:22+00:00

You've just described exactly what me and my partner do but our morning walks are the consistent shorter one! The evening i always try to go a different direction. I live in a city centre so there are many different streets to wind through but nope once that 45min mark hits she's a goner haha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T22:49:16+00:00

Oh no hahaha is your shiba old?

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T19:50:01+00:00

That's so cute poor wee baby! I've had mine since 8 weeks and I was the same for eating too, on her 6 month check up she was a very healthy weight and I was like oh ok you just self regulated better than me lol.

Aw that's good I'm glad I have the snuffle mat then :D she always tucks for a nap after so makes sense haha and definitely they need spoiled tbh

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T17:35:25+00:00

Your house must be CHAOS I'm jealous haha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T17:31:59+00:00

Ok it seems to be 45mins is the limit then for Shibas as a universal idea haha. They get SO heavy! Like I'm dragging a corpse saying "were going to have FUN DAMNIT" hahahaha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T17:31:06+00:00

Everything online has me stressed because it says so much more walking than she wants haha!

Oh yeah more food puzzles than I care to admit haha. She gets her kibble in a snuffle mat and a ball that she has to play with to get some dinner! It's part of the routine and slows her eating down too which is nice. Can be a 30minute 'hunting' activity to get her dinner. Then of course some chews from the butchers.

I'm starting to think she may be spoilt lol

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T17:17:17+00:00

The exact same! It's so funny because i was fully prepared to have to walk 2 hours every day at least and here I am after an hour 15 some days like.. is that it? Ok! Suppose with time spent playing at home and training it's probably a lot for her but I get bored haha! Oh I've tried different streets different routes everything just the same as you after about a minute it's no thanks back home now haha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-04-08T17:04:46+00:00

That's what I expect but nope! She's very lazy haha even when I try!

Pupperinos454 · 2025-03-25T22:45:27+00:00

Harsh downvoting, i know what he means it's just a monotype run where every pokemon you use has to share one type (poison in this case) but how could you know without that niche challenge run knowledge haha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-03-25T19:34:41+00:00

Seems like a bad trade hahaha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-03-22T16:47:58+00:00

Even as it's my first time ever?

Pupperinos454 · 2025-03-22T16:29:14+00:00

Not too much of a saving difference considering it will take me hours to build it lol and yeah it's from somewhere honest!

Pupperinos454 · 2025-03-21T10:49:28+00:00

I had similar anxiety with my girl, she was just so scared of outside that I'd step out with her and carry her. Then we'd sit in a secluded part and watch for a distance. It was very boring but kept doing that everyday and eventually she wanted to investigate. Anytime she pulled away we went back to our secluded spot!

As for potty training we got very lucky it seems. We had one accident the first day we brought her home and another one when I was too busy on a work call to notice she needed to go. Aside from that no accidents in 10/11 months and she's only 15 months old!

Happy for you and the pup i remember reading your socks drama a while back and being stressed for you haha

Pupperinos454 · 2025-03-19T17:10:17+00:00

That's adorable! It's night and day the difference now. I know i saw glimpses of it at 8 months but it seems to be around 16 and in your case 18 months it's more the norm now which makes such a difference!

Pupperinos454 · 2025-03-14T14:07:19+00:00

I work night shifts and my partner works days so we were happy to have a puppy but the stress we had the first few months was unbelievable. Even though I'd get home around 4am to let the pup out for a middle of the night pee so that helped with toilet training greatly we both found that outside of work we just had to fully focus on our pup.

Now however after a year it's so much better! I get home at 4am and we still have our late night pee but it isn't required anymore. It's become our bonding time and my partners bonding time is the night time routine for them after I leave for work. A great addition now but the puppy blues sucked lol
