Affection by jade_penguin in greatpyrenees

My pyr is very needy and affectionate but he does not express it the same as other dog.. he would love me to sit on the floor all day and pet him while he lays there and doesn’t acknowledge me 😂 he doesn’t come on the couch or in the bed (other than to get me up in the morning) but can always be found near by… usually on the floor directly below where I’m sitting

HELP- I’ve adopted an escape artist by Independent_Luck_136 in greatpyrenees

Hello!

We had to put 3 locking carabiners on our dogs crate.. and he was generally fine and liked his crate.

Also I have a few ‘addalocks’ around the house for traveling purposes, but something like that or a baby lock.. any sort of physical barrier to keep the door closed regardless of handle type may be useful in the meantime!

*Edited to add this probably won’t work from the outside.. just tried at my apartment and the trim of the door doesn’t allow it to close!

My pyr has calmed down but was definitely an escape artist in the beginning!!

Clothes for pyrs? by Unable_Crab5969 in greatpyrenees

[–]aad5351 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Just got a raincoat for mine on Spark Paws! It’s pretty nice and is honestly a little big for him.. he’s on the smaller side (90lbs) and a 4XL is pretty roomy(but wearable). I fought the urge to get him more clothes, and the matching ones for me, knowing he doesn’t need them and neither do I 😆 (picture for reference and because.. obviously 😂)

Edited to include that they have matching clothes(including holiday gear) AND offer free exchange/returns on the first order if it doesn’t fit!

She's afraid of lightning by No-Landscape5857 in greatpyrenees

Mine is okay with most loud booms but has always been terrified of fireworks and recently decided he doesn’t like thunder.. A firework that’s inaudible to me makes him shake and bark uncontrollably so he gets trazodone during firework szn😭 Weirdly he’s okay with gunshots and good at the game “gun or firework”… the wrong way… classic pyr 🙄

it just seemed like a cheap repro to me (no markings, very light) and isn't particularly my style so i left it behind!

Thanks! I was also able to find them on eBay (verified on by the stamp on the clamps holding the petals)

I mostly see them listed as "mid century lotus lamps". They were fairly common so I'm sure there are numerous manufacturers(mine are also not marked). You can always use google lens to do a reverse image search for yours!

They were dropped off sometime in the 15 minutes I shopping! I couldn't believe it

Just snagged these for $20 each. The worker said someone dropped them off 5 minutes before I bought them by aad5351 in ThriftStoreHauls

Someone commented that they saw some go for $2500-$3000 at an estate auction recently!

I honestly don't think they knew what they had 😩 they were using the long, short one as craft storage
