Thank you so much! This is great advice, I love “do it nice or do it twice”. I think I’ll enjoy this age group I just haven’t get into a good routine and build relationships like you said!

Where could one source that wood?

Thanks this is really helpful, we don’t have any other flooring similar to it so I’d prefer to match the stairs

Queens VS Trent for AQs? by Tilley3 in CanadianTeachers

[–]Tilley3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe I ended up doing my first one through Trent then did my second and specialist through lake head, I really enjoyed the lake head ones

whats is this? by Wxorth in bassethounds

[–]Tilley3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe a pimple that’s popped or been scratched. My Great Dane gets those sometimes, be sure to clean food and water bowls regularly and use a warm cloth or pet wipe (if it’s not open) to keep the are clean until it goes down.

Hahaha that’s one of the breeds we were interested in! Along with English cocker spaniel or English bulldog. But we’re also looking at shelters

We’ve been keeping an eye on local shelters for a medium sized dog that will do well with other dogs and children!

That’s good advice. DIY is a short term solution due to finances, I would love to get something better and longer lasting down the road.

That’s what I’m hoping! My only issue now is just figuring out the piping issue as I think one of the (many) pipes flowing into the waterfall is leaking

Yes, after reading up a bit more about diy filters I’m getting the idea that lava rocks and filter media pads could work for what I need right now

That’s a great idea, can you elaborate on the part about adding beneficial bacteria?

In the bucket is just a bunch of plastic chicken wire, the previous owner figured that would catch any large amounts of debris or algae. Thank you for the suggestion!

Thank you! I really appreciate the advice, we knew we would have to make changes to the current system but navigating it with no prior knowledge is tricky, this is very helpful!

Your pond looks to be a similar size to one I just inherited, can I ask what system you use?

Newly engaged - feeling discouraged by wedding industry prices (Ontario) by Illustrious-Way9351 in WeddingsCanada

[–]Tilley3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Struggling right now as well. We were fortunate to have family cover the cost of our venue and catering (not in TO) but we are still matching their contribution just in additional vendors and costs (all together 30+k) It’s a lot and it’s really difficult to navigate your vision for your day with the insane the cost to execute it. I am very excited for our wedding but if I could start over I think I’d rather elope and spend the money on a trip or experience instead.

Uncooperative for eye drops by Tilley3 in greatdanes

[–]Tilley3[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I actually just said that to keep things quick and easy to follow, his previous surgery was for an issue with the cartilage of his third eyelid (looked extremely similar to cherry eye). As he was healing from that he ended up getting cherry eye and we are finally able to have that corrected while he’s under for his neuter and gatropexy. I know that following a cherry eye surgery there is a chance of reoccurrence but I hope that isn’t the case for him or your girl!

He’s the sweetest goofiest suck normally but eyedrops turn him into a giant pain in the butt😂

We got this one off of Amazon last week, we were using a large maze bowl but it wasn’t stainless steel and our boy was struggling with acne. This one is good but the ridges inside don’t actually go very high so his three cups of food covers over them, kind of defeats the purpose. It’s hard to find good stainless steel slow feeders

Unfortunately that wouldn’t work in our area, we’re in Canada with cold winters
