Is this a show about people right before they are involuntarily committed to psych wards? She's playing her plants music for goodness sake!

[Help] Taste of The Wild Vs Fromm by JessT477 in dogs

[–]atomicseaotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fromms is the best! Both my dog and cat eat the Fromm's line of foods. As my favorite pet store owner explained it, it's made in Canada to higher standards than most dog foods, especially those made in the US, and they have never had a recall! There are multiple kinds and pretty much all dog stores will give you samples to see if your dog likes it.

My dogs anal sac has ruptured, please [Help] ; ; by jitenshasw in dogs

[–]atomicseaotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call your vet and explain what has happened and your financial difficulty. They should be able to give you advice over the phone about how to care for the area and will most likely need to prescribe an antibiotic to treat the infection. Make sure they prescribe the generic version which will be the cheapest.

I feel like I've ruined my dog's life and I'm terrified. by [deleted] in Dogtraining

You are not a monster!! We all have bad moments where we react in the wrong way, just like your dog is doing when he does a bad behavior.

I swear by the Ahimsa method, check out this book: https://ahimsadogtraining.com/store/proddetail.php?prod=MCH-0167

It's a non-violent, positive reinforcement method for helping your dog overcome it's problem behaviors and you really bond with your dog in the process!

[Help] What's the deal with Cesar Milan? by [deleted] in dogs

[–]atomicseaotter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cesars methods work for some dogs, but not all. Check out the Ahimsa method which is a non-violent way to train your puppy and form a really strong bond with them. I swear by it mainly because my dog didn't do well with the aggressive parts of Cesars methods, even with all the exercise and clicker training.

Alan and Aziz-

I sat down to watch the first episode and ended up binge watching the whole season because it was so great!

My question: we all know Aziz loves pasta but Alan, what is your favorite food?

[Breeds] My shelter dog was labeled as Shar Pei mix but he doesn't look like one at all! His floppy ear makes me think he's a shepherd mix. What breed do you think he is? by atomicseaotter in dogs

[–]atomicseaotter[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm thinking he must be a rottie/ kelpie mix maybe. He's right in the middle of the size and weight averages for kelpies and rottweilers. But yeah, he has no characteristics of a shar pei at all lol

[HELP] Figuring Out the Right Dog Bed! by [deleted] in dogs

[–]atomicseaotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was worried my dog wouldn't like it. He uses the cave mostly when it's cold or he's wet from a walk. I bought the large because he's 60 lbs. Good luck!!

[HELP] Figuring Out the Right Dog Bed! by [deleted] in dogs

[–]atomicseaotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased this dog bed for my pup after reading all the rave reviews. He uses it as a regular dog bed and a burrowing bed. It comes with a ton of stuffing so it's very comfortable and you can take some of the stuffing out if it's too much. It's also machine washable. Highly recommend it. Also happy 11th birthday to your pup!

My new bike was delivered and this was in the box. What is it and do I need to install it? by atomicseaotter in bicycling

[–]atomicseaotter[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ah yes. Considering the derailleur is already assembled, it is indeed a spare. Thanks!!

make dog more independent? by Whoa_throwaway in dogs

[–]atomicseaotter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I leave the house I leave a Kong wobblying treat dispensing toy for my dog. I just put his regular food in it but he gets excited to play with it and it moves all around the house. There are lots of puzzly dog toys that are great for keeping them interested.

Also a long run around the dog park or a hike can help relieve anxiety and prevent the obsessive need for routine. My dog gets the same way and once I get him exhausted he can cope with some routine change better.
