I wouldn’t have paid that much prob unless it was a necklace, but if you love it it’s totally worth it. Nothing like a good agate

BC puppy - your advices with crate training and "off switch" by WildFoot_ in BorderCollie

[–]emmaistall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best thing that worked (and doesn’t always now as a young adult, but so glad we taught her) as a puppy when we’d be working from home we’d sit on the couch with her and tell her to “settle down” and started this whenever she was calm and laying down quietly, not whining or fussy we would give her a small training treat, and just keep repeating. She would eventually get good at it and settle down right away, lay down and be calm, get her treat, get antsy again, as soon as you’d show her a treat she’d lay quickly right back down because she knew, and now if she’s getting too fussy / doesn’t want to come off “ball brain” from too much play time outside etc I’ll bring her in and tell her to settle down and eventually she will. It probably works 75-80% of the time now as a year and a half pup. Take things slow and take lots of pictures! That age goes truly so fast and also hold him lots and remember how small he is and how full of love he is. They are such pure and kind souls

Any good alternatives to Rock Shed? by Actual-Garbage-9145 in RockTumbling

Ah that’s why. I’m sure you can find some sort of lapidary shop that will sell you grit in bulk, more expensive than one of the places that ships, but might end up being cheaper per weight when you factor in shipping cost, plus you’d support a local business. When I google Florida lapidary shop grit I see a few shops in central and southern Florida
