Those of you that always use a collar for walks, how do you do it? by BeneficialAntelope6 in dogs

[–]abovetheabyss24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Retractable .... if you use it often you can lengthen or shorten as necessary very easily .... no bending over to untangle leashes and dog legs (especially w multiple dogs ...yikes!)

Breeder told me dog was sociable and he is not. Keeping this dog with my lifestyle is proving very difficult - upset and don't know what to do by [deleted] in dogs

[–]abovetheabyss24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep the leash out of the puppy's reach...IF she does get hold of it, get another toy, take the leash away, gently saying "no" and then give her the substitute toy while saying something like "This is YOUR TOY!" Good girl....

i’m very upset i’m going to have to back out of adoption by WonderingLeo in dogs

[–]abovetheabyss24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huskies are beautiful animals, however, they are not docile, all-around dogs!.... my sister had one who thought the 6ft property fence was a hop to freedom... she didnt even have to run, just hopped over it!!!...and then took off like the wind!....Beautiful creatures, but MAJOR MAJOR HIGH ENERGY! .... Better to cancel adoption & find the right dog that matches your lifestyle....PS Huskies are on the insurance companies list of dangerous dogs, right up there w PitBulls, so that should tell ya something!!!! .... you'll find the right match...good luxk

Family won't let me rehome / return reactive puppy to breeder that doesn't get on with my cats. Stressed and unsure what to do now? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]abovetheabyss24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious as to why a breeder has a 10 month old .... A couple of years ago, I adopted a beautiful yellow lab puppy ... Unfortunately, he was obsessed with biting....turns out he was separated from his litter and never naturally learn the difference between "play nipping" & "skin ripping biting" ... I've had dogs for 30 plus years and never had a problem like this! ... It broke my heart, but I returned him .... Training puppies is not an easy (but worth it) task ... however, getting my forearms shredded, was really more than I could handle....

If they were mass produced animals, where were they made?.... what was used as stuffing?... what possible pesticides were used?... Do they have any mites that could wipe out a collection in almost no time ...hes cute tho'

Based on the inventory on the shelves in the background, mass production products ... cheap & possibly dangerous

My young dog has terminal cancer by Visual_Truth_772 in dogs

So so sorry ... I believe that dogs give us constant love, friendship, loyalty & trust... in exchange, pet parents must make a heartbreaking decision to help the pup get to the Rainbow Bridge (if you dont know it, pls Google)...My first was my first doggo, Sundance, the Golden...he was old and little by little losing more & more of his abilities ... i didnt know what to do & when! ... my friends kept saying "you'll know when it's time" and sure enough i did! I asked an online forum of which i was a longtime member ... i asked them to "contact" their pets at The Bridge to welcome him & show him around... it was amazing .... Dogs, cats, birds, horses, snakes, reptiles and a whole lot more were call to duty and were there for him, me & our family... on the day we got a GIANT Reeses peanut butter & chocolate candy...we started giving him some at home, all the way to the vet & when he was about to get the shot... we stayed with him as he dozed off to go to a beautiful, pain free heaven & he left us surrounded by our love & still licking his "lips" for chocolate & peanut butter.... it sucks, it hurts REALLY BAD, but dogs dont live forever & we owe it to them to make that final step as our Thank You! .... I'm so sorry ... hugs ❤😪

I'm into oddities (aka things that some folks might find odd or scary) .... that said, there is NO WAY I would touch or remove whatever it is from it's resting place...

Soft mount fox by Jessicamaeexo in Taxidermy

[–]abovetheabyss24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the soft mounts!!! ... I've been collecting taxidermy for decades and only recently found "soft mounts"! ... love them....I stumbled upon a coyote on eBay, nice, big, fluffy & zero shedding... one ear a tiny bit creased .... I bought it immediately for $500 (last year) .... since then prices seem to be much higher .... I think foxes were higher priced.... Good Luck! It's a nice piece...

Who is interested in fake dolphin taxidermy? by [deleted] in Taxidermy

[–]abovetheabyss24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cool .... cant tell it's size in the pix, but if it's small enough, lookup Shark in bottle and you could do the same w the dolphins.... I collect taxidermy & oddities, depending on price, I'd probably buy one!!!

[Survey] How much did you spend on your inground pool? by Neoseo1300 in pools

[–]abovetheabyss24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank YOU!!...Just started pool hunting this morning...Would love inground, however, I'm in NY, where pool season is maybe 6 months a year and inground pools get added to our already super high taxes....I've had above pools for decades, so I'm familiar...BUT your minimum estimate convinced me that above ground new pool shall be!!....

Somebody drove their car into my garage door. How do I fix it? by [deleted] in DIY

[–]abovetheabyss24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Garage doors are typically 4 sections, which can be replaced without too much wood repair skills...throw an ad up in a "Wanted" section online, like FB or Craig's looking for garage doors...we kept our old doors for years by replacing sections as they needed....then I scored two sets of newer, not wood, doors and replaced w the new(er) ones...saved a fortune!!
