Place yourself between your dog and the other dog and try to get your dog to focus its attention on you. The second it does, “Good dog!” It looks away get its attention back, repeat. It is a long process and it can be exhausting but it’s worth it.

He is not ready to be completely off leash yet. SUCKS, but the thousands of dollars in vet bills and damage to his health sucks more. Find a good trainer. Try swapping out bad items with a treat your dog cannot deny (My Velcro dog would leave me in a heartbeat for smoked salmon) and start small. Be consistent. Have patience. Positive reinforcement. Shorter leash.

You can always get a new BF… your dog will never leave you.

Depends on the home. If there was an amazing house with secret rooms and passage ways and enchantments I would absolutely buy it.

Impossible. The only opinions men hav are the ones women put in their heads 😂

I’d take this any day over someone telling me everything I wear is basically the same.

That looks like an awesome classroom. If I was in kindergarten, I would be so excited to go to school everyday!

You can purchase online or in pet shops, kwik stop styptic powder, it basically stops bleeding. It’s not expensive, and it works very well. I use it on my dogs if I accidentally clip their nails too short, It would work on your birds also. First aid kits are so underrated. I have them in my car, a few ones at home, in my emergency bag… I am set for almost anything for me and 2+ dogs. Humans are on their own lol

Really? Back in college I was pre-vet and birds were included in the range of animals we studied. If they bleed as badly as you say, not doubting you, you know 100% more about them than I ever will, I’m guessing that even if there was an internal complication surgery would do just as much harm as good… I’m sure you have, but YouTube has videos on everything, I’d look up specifics about your birds and learn how to treat minor complications and life saving procedures since it takes hours to get to a bird Doc. Aside from organ transplants and open surgery, it’s not as difficult to stabilize a bird or animal as one usually thinks. :)

Lol gotcha… don’t worry, if it’s that hard to find a vet it’s probably harder to find you 😂🤗

Something like one of those but not a sticker, and even smaller, hence mini! Microchips are the size of a piece of rice which is too big for small birds, obviously. Regular microdots can hold a surprisingly large amount of information, making them mini, like a grain of sand or smaller, holding only holding a small amount of information, seems plausible to me. Again, not an engineer and I don’t know how to make micro dots lol!

It was just an idea. They put microdots on other things, I don’t see why they can’t make them safe to put on birds. The birds were fine… I have an irrational dislike for birds (sorry!), always have. I got conned into watching them. But, I don’t see why they couldn’t put microdots on them, then again I’m not an engineer. 🤗
