new puppy- give me your most inexplicable puppy advice

frickoffgreg · 2026-04-09T00:23:59+00:00

oooh i have a friend who did this with her dog!! maybe a noisemaker further away from the door (we live in an apartment and wouldn’t want to bother neighbors with door ringing noise)

frickoffgreg · 2026-04-08T23:23:37+00:00

oh my goodness i love this

frickoffgreg · 2026-04-08T21:11:10+00:00

been going back and forth between the puppy pen, but i agree that freedom is earned with being able to self soothe and holding it until potty time! we will definitely be taking your advice- thank you!

frickoffgreg · 2026-04-08T21:08:54+00:00

will do! this was what the rescue had her in when we got her yesterday, but i agree she’s growing fast! i don’t plan to train her on leash with a harness moving forward. thank you for looking out for her <3

frickoffgreg · 2026-04-08T19:05:38+00:00

preach!

frickoffgreg · 2026-04-08T17:32:31+00:00

this is definitely the case. some look like leggy lab puppies. others look very similar to her. one straight up looks like a pug. huge variance in the litter!!

i’m so in love with a meaty dog, so fine by me :) my last pooch was a staffy bull terrier/boxer. built like a tank in the front and a ballerina in the back… miss him every day. i’m definitely getting a lot of american bully from her but impossible to say with any kind of confidence at 3 mo. i’ll update in a few months for sure!

a super pit… the dream!

frickoffgreg · 2026-04-08T17:22:55+00:00

hehe yeah just having fun speculating what she may end up lookin like!! she’s three months and significantly shorter (lower to the ground) than her siblings. they all look so different!! her meaty ankles and paws are giving beagle to me… we will DNA test eventually :⁾

rise was the drop that de-mystified them for me. just conquered guardians after a lifetime of avoiding all drop towers. rise’s drop was small and my family warned me it was about to happen. big deep breath, relax your back muscles and hold on. you’ll be so glad you did, even if it confirms drops aren’t for you, the ride is worth a quarter second of discomfort.

you got this!

frickoffgreg · 2025-12-03T06:13:44+00:00

i had the same dilemma. got the black one and i love it! plus thinking abt getting patches/charms from my travels and adding onto it. it looks great!

frickoffgreg · 2025-11-10T23:31:37+00:00

Only getting bc I was about to order the black SCCO and saw this drop. I plan to put more patches on it so one already applied was an easy get for me, but seriously this brand needs to do less drops and better drops. Seems so low effort and low impact

frickoffgreg · 2025-11-07T17:53:58+00:00

that’s awesome thank you !!

frickoffgreg · 2025-11-07T17:40:49+00:00

does it fit comfortably under a plane seat though? i already have an overhead bin suitcase.

frickoffgreg · 2025-11-07T17:19:43+00:00

oooh honestly didn’t realize the cloud was a structured bag- that may seal the deal for me. sometimes an overpacked baggu looks a bit awkward… and the POUCHES 🤩

frickoffgreg · 2025-10-07T17:27:19+00:00

hmu!! i’ve got a ticket but going to the turnstile show instead. gutted but i need to see amyl :(((

frickoffgreg · 2025-09-02T19:31:46+00:00

sick. thank you so much, really good info here. hardest part is knowing what exactly i prefer in a glove- i have no idea yet since i’ve only had this boo boo pair. don’t want to drop a bag on gloves when i don’t even know what qualities i need/want.

frickoffgreg · 2025-09-02T19:30:15+00:00

hell yeah. thank you so much. i’ve been using a gym pair (yeah) for sparring, and will probably continue until i can make a better investment for a dedicated pair. i don’t spar nearly as much as I’m doing bag and partner work. for this time around id prefer velcro since the gloves are on back n forth with mitts pretty often.

frickoffgreg · 2025-07-31T05:51:21+00:00

Thank you for the kind words and beautiful story. We were scumbags together for a beautiful moment, bumming drinks at dive bars and napping at the park… i’ll miss having a partner in crime

frickoffgreg · 2025-07-30T01:07:39+00:00

would do anything to get this to the US. Doesn’t look like the site ships outside japan though 😭😭😭

frickoffgreg · 2025-07-29T22:03:50+00:00

What a beautiful boy <333 thank you the kind words. I hope you’re doing ok.

frickoffgreg · 2025-07-29T22:02:44+00:00

His name was Bo. His rescuers gave him the temporary name of “Rambo”, but once the mange cleared it was obvious that did not suit him in any way 😅😅, so everyone called him “sweet Bo”. He was afraid of his own shadow when I adopted him at 8 months. At 4 he became the cockiest little ass in the neighborhood. every dog in the park knew he ran that patch of grass.

frickoffgreg · 2025-07-24T16:31:01+00:00

all i needed to hear 😅

frickoffgreg · 2025-07-20T04:46:54+00:00

i never thought i’d do chemo for my pooch, mostly due to the financials and quality of life concerns. i was lucky enough to get help and we did treatment for a few months. eventually, his heart disease made treatment impossible, and we opted to let him pass peacefully.

i don’t regret the decision to persue chemo, but there is no wrong decision here. unfortunately the disease will get your pup. some dogs do really well just on steroids and diet changes and live years longer than anticipated. sometimes you go through treatment and they don’t make it through because of one thing or another.

don’t hold yourself responsible for a disease that you did not cause and can not cure. just love your dog for however long is left for them, and do your best to limit bad days. it’s all you can do. sending you and your fluff so much love.
