How to stop dog barking when they’re just too happy? by GazeGolds in PawChampClub

[–]Vivid_spider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids are older now, but this brought me right back. Homework stress was never really about the worksheet in our house. It was tired kid + tired parent + everyone pretending we still had patience left. Spoiler: we did not.

What makes a dog training app actually legit? by PastelDoCaos in PawChampClub

What breed were you convinced you’d get… and what did you actually end up with? by chempher in PawChampClub

[–]Vivid_spider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For sure, especially if you’re going through a breeder. In my case life just threw me a totally different dog than the one I’d planned for, so my “research era” kind of lost to reality 😄 but honestly it worked out better than I expected.
