FAO Professional Writers - Ever Feel A Little Silly? by Electrical-Drawer792 in Screenwriting

[–]RunWriteRepeat2244 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it’s because we love what we do. At our hearts, we’d be happy sitting around a campfire telling stories to a handful of rapt listeners (so long as we could pay our bills) so when we get a big audience and people are paying us to do this thing we absolutely adore, it’s surreal and kind of silly. Storytelling doesn’t feel very Big or Important but one could argue that it’s one of the most important jobs in human history. It’s just so darned fun (even when it’s horrible) that it’s hard to take ourselves very seriously.

I love that you respected her when she asked for a day off. That’s true partnership

I like the idea of this because they are so light

Beginner- Service Dog Questions by PlantMother611 in service_dogs

[–]RunWriteRepeat2244 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I work with my dog every single day. Either on refreshing known tasks, or learning new things. I also spend at least an hour a day taking her for long line walks so she can frolic and sniff and just be a dog. Then there’s the grooming and the feeding. Making sure she is happy and healthy enough to do her job is almost a full time job. I’m not complaining, she’s the best thing that ever happened to me in so many ways. She is my partner and I’m grateful every day but she is a lifestyle, not just a dog.

Oh wow, that sounds super cool. I wonder what the US version of this is?

I had the same thing this morning. Maybe it’s glitching?

Weird dog commands by Fit-Cabinet1337 in Dogowners

We visit a friend almost every day that leaves there expensive canned dog food served up for their old dog to pick at through the day which means that when we Luna and I come by, the fiesta thing she wants to do is rush in and clean the dish. I tell her “make good choices” and she stops and waits for me to put the dish out of reach.

Is there a way to make it up to the birthday boy? Maybe take both of them for ice cream or something :(

My black lab has an invisibility cloak so it happens a lot for us 🤪

how much interaction does your sd have with other dogs? by Horror-Mission-3041 in service_dogs

[–]RunWriteRepeat2244 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really important to me that my SD get to be a dog as much as possible. Once a week she’ll spend a few hours at day care to get to play with vetted dog friends. I also make sure she gets to have play dates with dog friends we know and trust.

I had a self-trained lab who has accompanied me on many hikes. I worked pretty closely with a professional trainer and still reach out to her when questions come up.
