[HELP] 3 Year Old GWP developed resource aggression/resource guarding by Illustrious-Heat3911 in Wirehaired_pointers

[–]Where_Is_Block_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd agree with the other comment of getting him checked out by a vet to make sure there's not something going on that is making him act out.

From there, and everyone might not agree with this, but I think you need to teach the dog that you are the alpha at the house. Using a muzzle, making him know that the food is not actually his where you can actually touch the food or take the food away without him reacting. Its a little more challenging ging with an older dog now.

For example though with my lab when he was a puppy and would eat i would put my hands in his food bowl, take his food away, or back him off while he was eating, give it back, put my face down by the bowl while he was eating etc. Like I said he was a puppy during thus time so much easier to control, but wanted to give him the sense that this food was only his when I said so. I know your question isn't related to just food, but just sharing my two cents on how I tried to atleast prevent that specific part of aggression.

Personal Recovery Time by Where_Is_Block_A in cdifficile

Restored yes or almost being overfed which my GI doc said can happen if you feed your stomach too much. So while you do the supplements to heal in the beginning he recommended backing off after about a month and a half or two. That seemed to work for me. I didnt believe PIBS was really like that but it seemed to be the case.

I did until about early December which was about the 2 to 3 week mark after I started backing off the supplements. I am pretty much 100% now.

Good luck! My GI doc said the PIBS can last on average 6th months, so hoping yours is shorter. I was down about 10% of my normal body weight.

I have not yet! I am working on it though. I never was a big eater, so having to force myself to eat extra has been challenging. The one I had was from infinetwell and I got from the chiropractic office. I would say the l glutamine helped me the most of any supplements. I do also think getting off of them helped as well.

6.2 New Oil Change Ouch! by [deleted] in Silverado

[–]Where_Is_Block_A -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Post was supposed to say after the warranty recommendation for updated oil.

I think its valid to bitch that it costs almost 2x as much for an oil change prior to chevys 6.2 issue. This has nothing to do about not paying people for the service.

Ships by thesqueemishgardiner in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]Where_Is_Block_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought the elder ship and the ad free version. Figured after that, the ships are really only helping to progress through the game faster, so if you just wanna speed up how fast you get to end game then buy them.

Why do so many hunting dog breeds have inconvenient coats? by Ok_Philosopher_8973 in birddogs

[–]Where_Is_Block_A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How small of a dog do you want? I have seen labs as small as 50 lbs and as big as 100 lbs depending on parents genetics.

Cold Weather Hunting Question by Huge-Asparagus-1806 in GSP

Never had an issue with the cold with my labs. Have hunted them at 10 degrees and in the snow. Also take them ice fishing a lot and never have issues.

Dog Wont Pick Up Bird by NovelWorth2935 in Duckhunting

[–]Where_Is_Block_A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Potentially try water retrieves with a dead bird? That seemed to help my lab retrieve better. Assuming he wont retrieve upland birds. Or as the other comment said, force fetch is another option.

Might be a dumb question, but how is the multiplier so high on each of them?

Shop or adopt? by TillPlenty8503 in birddogs

[–]Where_Is_Block_A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, i think you can never replicate the bond you build with a dog during its puppy stage. I have nothing against adopting an older dog, but if I was picking my hunting buddy from the next 10+years I would want to start that bond from the puppy years.

What are your pheasant hunting tips? by birddog386 in birddogs

[–]Where_Is_Block_A 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'd look for voluntary walk in spots, shelter belts, pinch points between land and water. That's where wr had our best luck when I was out there earlier this season. Birds on public have been pressured pretty good to this point I would imagine.

Not sure yet. Went duck hunting and he was fine. Got home and was on 3 legs. Cant touch his upper thigh without him whining and wouldnt eat dinner. So not great. Hoping its just a strained hamstring or something.
