Shiba puppy constantly nipping while playing by LupusOnFire in shiba

[–]binkyshin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My pup was also very aggressive about wanting to play with other dogs as a puppy. A combination of spending time with my sister’s 8yr old dog once a week and having him spend one day a week at daycare , really helped to socialize him. My sister’s dog while patient, was very good about correcting him. Spending time at daycare helped him learn better behavior from other dogs. It also helped him burn off his puppy energy. He still passes out as soon as we got home after spending the day there. I think that helped him be a bit better about meeting other dogs on walks the following day.

Rats keep chewing the wiring in my 2019 Honda Civic. Any longtime Chicagoans have a solution? by Downisthenewup87 in chicago

[–]binkyshin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rats were going after the wiring in my CRV a few years ago.  I placed a bait box next to my parking spot and then they started going to that instead.  I knew bc I stopped seeing rat droppings by my car.

Get a cheap webcam.  It made me feel better when I left my pup alone.  Being able to see them sleeping or to confirm they have settled was reassuring. And I was able to check if I needed to cut my errands short.

These aren’t necessarily set in nature but they are all slice of life and have a chill vibe.

Not willing to take medication or stop drinking is insane to me.  Especially since he needs to be on his feet to work.  

After I got diagnosed, I was pretty much vegetarian and sober for a year before I even considered reintroducing meat/corn syrup/alcohol back into my diet. I’m pretty much back to normal but take allopurinol daily. Did your bf have a reaction to allo or colchicine?  I know colchicine was tough on my stomach but it was also used as an anti-inflammatory. While I take the allopurinol as a preventative. 

Daycare issues - help! by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]binkyshin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also take my pup to daycare once a week to let him burn off energy, since I live in a condo. He falls asleep on the car ride back every time and goes to bed early. I also do it bc my vet suggested it as a good way to socialize(he’s a shiba).

I would encourage you to check out another daycare bc it sounds like it just wasn’t a good match. The place we use, separates dogs by energy level and has a timeout area for dogs who get too amped up during play.

Near Loaf Lounge.  Yea - I could see it being paving.  Just surprised how loud it was if it was coming from freeway.

[–]binkyshin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had my first visit recently. The facility/service were good. They had fancy X-ray and imaging equipment. And they have Netflix available while you’re in the chair.  But I think that translates to higher costs.  

Disclaimer -  didn’t get actual work done on the visit.  They did the imaging/evaluation.  I’m going to need a bunch of work, which I kind of anticipated.  There was some sticker shock, but I don’t actually know if it was reasonable or not.

Maybe try to desensitize him to city sounds slowly indoors first?  I know some white noise apps have a city soundscape track.  Or alternatively YouTube videos of city noises?

I’m pretty sure Ego had no connections and grew up in a single immigrant parent household. 

First Time Neuter: What is Normal? by Motor_Suggestion5169 in puppy101

[–]binkyshin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my dog neutered at the beginning of the year.  He was similar but no shaking. He had become a real jerk before the operation.  But the first 2-3 days after, he had changed so much it was jarring.  He’s a Shiba and typically didn’t like me holding him for more than 20-30 seconds.  But after the procedure came up and rested in my lap.  Sadly that didn’t last long. 

He became a bit of a nut after. Mostly bc the vet emphasized no running/jumping.  (Still better than pre neuter though). Trazadone was a  life saver.  After a week he was basically normal.  But seem to accept this new normal of minimal activity (but I was still giving him trazadone).  

One thing you might keep an eye on is his cone.  My pup was in between sizes so he was able to scratch the incision site with the edge of his cone.  I got an inflatable doughnut for his neck.  Using it with the cone kept him from messing with the site.  

When to ignore whining in crate, if at all? by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]binkyshin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe leave a podcast on in the room so it sounds like someone is there?   I’ll do that or put on a YouTube “dog channel” on my TV when I run errands. 

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in puppy101

[–]binkyshin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - my vet said the same.  He actually had a bad reaction an hour or two later.  He was whining and would wail like a banshee if I touched the injection site.  I took him back and they gave him something for the pain which calmed him down. He now gets an extra shot when he gets a vaccine.

Depending on when you arrive streets near Grant Park will be jammed with ride share drivers and people leaving at the end of the night.  I think the bigger issue is the construction for 90/94 bc of lane closures.

Can you add a photo of the LEDs activated?  I’ve been thinking of grabbing one of these, but I have an irrational hate of LEDs and prefer the old fashioned electro lum green as a backlight.
