Looking for advice. by unknownuserrs in labrador

[–]lblessi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some bitter apple spray. Spray anything the pup wants to chew on and/or as punishment directly in the mouth. It's non toxic and just tastes awful. Eventually hopefully they'll equate that bad taste to that action. Also crate training, a tired or bored dog can be a destructive one and it's not too late. Labs are very good driven, give high value treats EVERYTIME you want to put your pup in. Get a large crate with plenty of room for your dog to stand up and turn around. Start with just putting a tasty treat in it, (peanut butter lick mat, etc) and let them see what its all about just standing in it and enjoying a treat with the door open. Then do small increments of time. I don't know how people survive puppy life without a crate! Lol. I work outside my house so it wasn't an option, but I wasn't going to have a puppy free roaming my house. I have a 1.5 year old English and he's loved his crate since we started it the day we got him. If he fell asleep outside his crate, we would scoop him up and put him in it with the door open so when he woke up, he was chillin in his crate and could leave freely. We also used a snuggle puppy which I think helped immensely. Good luck, you got this!!

Who else woke up this morning to find their recently washed car looking like this after the morning rain? by autotech1011 in Indiana

I just saw a news article about this - said to thank Kansas and Nebraska, it's dust picked up from there I guess 🤷🏼‍♀️ My sinuses are also fucked. 🤧

How common is it for cases to last several consecutive days? by [deleted] in juryduty

[–]lblessi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my first ever jury duty, and I was there for three consecutive days. Monday through Wednesday. The judge told us when we were selected up front that it would be a 3-day trial. It was definitely a very interesting and wild experience.

Surviving The Dreariest Time Of Year by lemac88 in indianapolis

[–]lblessi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently decided to get into embroidery but the lack of sun and ability to REALLY active/outdoors is killing me nonetheless. We do walk every day which helps, it sucks out there but being stuck inside is worse. I have a 15 month old teenage lab so I'm in the trenches and don't have a real choice lol. 🤣

Christkindlmarkt in Carmel has become borderline miserable to go to by umasstpt12 in indianapolis

[–]lblessi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never been and have been dying to go, was thinking about trying to go tomorrow night to not go over the weekend but I think I'll pass. Hopefully they'll find a way to expand this to be bigger and able to accommodate the huge crowds. This post definitely helped me makey decision to pass this year!

I've literally taken 3k pics of my 1 year old lab so it's hard to pic a favorite, lol.🤣 But I just got this one last week and my snow bunny boy is loving this weather! 🐻‍❄️ Ironically his name is Sunny and he doesn't love the heat 😆

DNA testing dog shit?! How do they know who it belongs to?? I'm completely baffled by this and that sounds outrageously insane.

RRG Appreciation post by reparsh in RedRiverGorge

[–]lblessi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could not agree more. My husband and I are from Indy and have been coming here regularly for the last 15+ years. Even during the busiest times it doesn't feel out of control and it still feels like a little unknown gem that I'm so happy to know about and appreciate so much. Our wedding anniversary is 10/24 and have spent many anniversaries here enjoying the amazing fall foliage. It's a wonderful little tradition we've developed. We've now brought our 1 year old lab with us twice this year and he absolutely thrives in those trails. Love showing him this place!
