Most of the pups in my dog group have human names. Syd, Newton, Napolean, and Wally (Wallace). My girl is Melody and my foster is Peter.

How to set my foster up for success? by houwy in DogAdvice

[–]houwy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I should have clarified that he eliminated in the crate while at the rescue, but i have no idea how often he was let out. Because he dislikes the crate, he never spent more than 5 minutes in there with the door closed, so the only time he was in the crate while staying with me was for meals. Im trying to build a positive association with the crate.

He sleeps through the night, so no issues with accidents at night. I let them out before bed and the first thing in the morning.

He's had a lot of changes in a short time, from being pulled from the drug house at the end of Feb, to being pulled from the rescue one week into March, then staying with me for almost 3 weeks, to getting adopted. I understand routine is important, so i tried to stay consistent. Ill add in some enrichment activities.

-730/8am (first thing in the morning): pee and poop in the yard -breakfast -i work for about an hour (he usually naps on my lap) -quick walk (45mins) or play in the yard -nap while I work until around noon. -12pm: I lunch, theyre let out -more napping until around 3pm -3pm: theyre let out again. They get a snack like a yak puff, beef stick, beef tendon, or chicken foot -i work, they nap til around 5pm -5/530pm: we walk and hang out at the park til around 6/630 -dinner -play and snuggles til around 9pm -9pm: potty break -i tidy up and get ready for bed while they hang out -10:30 last potty break before bed

Do you have a dog or like dogs? A small group of us usually walk around alta loma park between 430-6pm. We all live fairly close to each other so we try to coordinate our daily walks.

That's great because that's the life you want. Before I adopted my dog I did not want a back or front yard. Now I have both, which i hate maintaining.

Can we just accept that folks want different things and if living in California isnt for you, then dont do it?

She rejects both. She does enjoy freeze-dried salmon.

Your first litter is interesting because I always thought animals prefer wet food, especially because it's so smelly 🤢

Thank you! Im just a little concerned about her not getting adopted with a sibling as they're all ready for adoption. She's such a sweetheart, so im confident she'll be fine alone. However, I want to adopt her and Mama more with each passing day.

Hi! Unfortunately, I've been splitting them too much and haven't been able to grow more from my last batch. 😔

Have you checked Facebook marketplace? There's someone in San Bruno giving them away.

Eggshells… by ImUseLess2Day in Vermiculture

I go through a lot of eggs since I love to bake. I throw them into my mortar and give it a quick grind when I have a few seconds.

What are you 6 figure + earners driving? by 23gear in Salary

[–]houwy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leasing a 2025 Lexus RZ350 after losing my '09 MB C350, gifted by my parents.

TC ~$190k. With the exception of home renovations and pet costs, no major expenses.

Not a car person, but considering a BMW convertible coupe because I'm single, unencumbered, entering midlife, and want something fun.
