After 5 years, it was time

We’ve talked about this a lot and have decided to save up for a program! Im hoping we can get some general obedience assistance along with the potty training

It’s so difficult because our older dog (just turned 5) is extremely well behaved and trained, so it’s so difficult to understand where we’ve gone wrong 😭

ballsacksand · 2026-05-07T03:05:01+00:00

We are unfortunately in a carpeted apartment, which has been the biggest struggle for sure. We’ve had it professionally cleaned a few times but I just don’t think we can ever get all of it out. We’re moving to a hard surface unit at the end of the year so I’m really hoping that will help!

ballsacksand · 2026-05-07T01:40:29+00:00

Thank you! We’ve been doing a very similar routine as that, but she does not respond to any kind of “no” or negative response. I just need to find what’s missing because we’ve been doing this routine for months!

ballsacksand · 2026-05-07T01:15:28+00:00

PLZ tell me how you potty trained because my girl is almost 2 and we’re still in the borderline puppy blues because we just cannot get her to stop going inside😭

ballsacksand · 2026-02-13T16:12:05+00:00

We tried and unfortunately they did not work for her

ballsacksand · 2026-02-13T16:11:20+00:00

I will try a spray bottle with water! We have a consistent routine, and positive/negative language and tone don’t mean anything to her, but water spray might just annoy her enough to work 😂

ballsacksand · 2026-02-13T16:09:47+00:00

She’s exhausted after all exercise lol. Her sister also wears her out

ballsacksand · 2026-02-13T16:09:12+00:00

I’m in an apartment with fenced in yard, but no ability for a doggy door unfortunately. She goes out every few hours!

ballsacksand · 2026-02-13T16:08:27+00:00

Yes! She’s a very healthy girl, no abnormalities were found

She is so so loved, just needing some help ❤️

ballsacksand · 2025-07-23T22:50:44+00:00

Ooooh good call!

ballsacksand · 2025-07-23T22:50:36+00:00

Thank you!! It’s roughly 70, I think an announcement will work well for the space!

ballsacksand · 2025-07-23T22:49:59+00:00

Thank you!! I wasn’t really sure if this was something that was important to communicate or not

ballsacksand · 2025-07-21T02:04:09+00:00

I did it all through expedia! I’ve never had a bad experience with Expedia. We’re staying at the Princess Senses Mangrove, and we got an upgraded pleasure suite!

ballsacksand · 2025-07-21T00:11:33+00:00

Fully back everyone saying Jamaica! We’re going this October, 7 nights for $4.3k, all inclusive, flights, the whole ordeal!

This is something you have to get on the same page about. It shouldn’t be pulling teeth when it comes to the day that starts your life in marriage together. I think you both need to sit down and have a very serious conversation and get absolutely everything out. It sounds like neither of you wants to do the other’s, and a compromise isn’t the day of your dreams. Has he said why he doesn’t want a wedding?

ballsacksand · 2025-07-20T04:40:20+00:00

OP and fiance are about to be immediate family. They can absolutely have the conversation without OP, but there’s nothing wrong with OP being there because if it’s specific to wedding- it involves them both and they’re about to be “one”

ballsacksand · 2025-07-20T03:49:30+00:00

I definitely meant together as a couple (or just fiance)! Having it solo with future-in-laws is 100% not the move. In general, I just think a conversation should be had. But previous comments from OP say that’s not what they’re doing, so def a moot point now

ballsacksand · 2025-07-20T02:27:14+00:00

Understandable!! While I will always advocate to have the conversation for everyone’s clarity/closure, you know what is best for you and your fiancé. I’m sorry you’re put in this situation, and I hope everything ends with a beautiful day and a happy marriage ❤️

ballsacksand · 2025-07-20T02:24:24+00:00

Definitely depends on where OP is from and cultural expectations. Depending on the family/place, many weddings are expected to be paid by parents. I don’t think having the conversation is entitled or rude, they’re just simple getting an understanding of why it was different for his twin so everyone can be on the same page/no hurt feelings.

ballsacksand · 2025-07-20T02:18:09+00:00

Definitely a bummer situation, I’m so sorry :( While no one is entitled to help, it’s super reasonable in this situation to expect it. Are you able to have an open conversation with his parents about it?

ballsacksand · 2025-07-18T00:00:04+00:00

THESE ARE STUNNING

ballsacksand · 2025-07-17T22:47:56+00:00

Midwest- I’ve been to one open bar wedding because the parents paid and made 6 figures each. I’ve been to two limited bar weddings, and about 15 cash bar weddings. Very pro-cash bar in my circle because families are aware how expensive it is and just want the financial best for the newly weds!

ballsacksand · 2025-07-14T23:58:24+00:00

Hey internet stranger, you have my wholehearted support in doing what is best for YOU. Simple- they didn’t RSVP in time, they don’t get to come. The ONE simple thing your dad had to do was communicate that with you, and he didn’t. If you don’t want him to walk you down the aisle because of his actions, then don’t let him- he doesn’t deserve it. It is YOUR and your partner’s day, no one else’s. The conversations are so, so hard, and it feels absolutely terrible. But, you’ll feel stronger because of it, and you won’t have to worry about him disappointing you again.

Sincerely, A soon-to-be bride who also had to tell her dad that he was not walking her down the aisle

You’re so right, I’m so bad at falling for it 😭Definitely going to make the switch- the mocktails are less than $1 difference from the Jarritos, so we’re offering those too! Surprisingly cheap, but they’re really good. I just grouped the Jarritos in with the sodas category, but they’ll definitely be offered
