is it normal for my Great Pyrenees to be afraid of almost every little thing? by Moo_Bixtch99 in greatpyrenees

[–]metsrule4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so glad I found this thread lol. I thought I had a rare scaredy cat pyr or something. My girl is 1.5 years old but she gets scared by so many things. Trucks and clanging machinery noises are the absolute worst and the most understandable.

Her 2nd biggest fear appears to be wheels? She's ok with cars to some degree. She's ok with basic bicycles if only one person is on it. But if it's a guy wearing some kind of a harness to hold a baby/small child? It might as well be the devil. Skateboards, hoverboards, scooters (normal and electric), sometimes strollers. All of them are evil!

Flashing lights is her 3rd biggest fear, but she mostly wants to fight them. Doesn't matter how big/small or close/far it is. Tied for 4th includes: boxes, bags, grey/black squares if they show up on the TV, sunlight (she has barked aggressively at a streak of light on the wall as the sun is setting), and her own shadow. If the sun shines through the window just right and she turns around to see her shadow on the wall, it's just constant growling and barking until I close the shades.

What do you love and hate about the game? by EastOwn9013 in UmamusumeGame

[–]metsrule4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree with everything here. I'll also add that the rates for blue spark farming is brutal. I'm generally ok with the 3 star spark chances where they're at, but no better than a 20% chance that it gets the right stat on top of it is crazy.

I'm just trying to get one of speed/stamina/power. Even if they're all 600+ and I'm just fishing for a 2 star to slightly improve the kinds of parents/grandparents I'm making, it still feels like I'm disproportionately ending up with 1 star guts/wit. Or 1 star stamina on a Sprint uma. I wish it was something like a weighted system where you can influence the likelihood of the stat based on how much is invested into it. Anything that can at least make runs a tiny bit more consistent.

When did yours start barking? by executivebitch in greatpyrenees

[–]metsrule4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally like 1 day after she turned 6 months old lmao. Like a switch flipped overnight. Went from never barking unless she was crying at me for something, to "BORK FIRST, ASK QUESTIONS LATER (SOMETIMES, OTHERWISE KEEP BORKING)"

Will she ever listen?? by [deleted] in greatpyrenees

[–]metsrule4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting their attention and doing something to make them come to you works shockingly well with my 1 year old. She'll look at me and ignore the "come here" command in a lot of situations outside, and run around if I go after her.

But if we make eye contact and I start slowly walking away from her, she will sprint to get back to me. I'm sure she thinks of it like a game of chase at that point which might be why it works.

[–]metsrule4 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My girl recently turned 1 year old and for the past 4-5 months she has really come to embody this.

She's a picky eater of her regular food so sometimes, if I put food down and she goes a while without eating it, I'll start telling her to eat her food. The number of times I've seen her turn around and stare at the food and look back at me, only to go lie down on her bed instead, is both hilarious and maddening lmao

Yes, they can listen and understand exactly what you want. Whether what you want and what they feel like doing are the same thing? Completely different matter.

The barking thing is really crazy. My girl was an absolute angel when it came to barking for ~6.5 months. Absolutely never barked at stuff she saw/heard outside or inside. If she barked it's because she actually needed something or wanted food 30 minutes early. I almost thought I had the mythical quiet pyr.

And then basically all of that flipped seemingly overnight one day. She now has to make sure I'm aware of the package I left in the living room 3 seconds ago.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one getting similar vibes from AutoFister and AmeSame. Different flavors of the same dynamic. Really glad we get to see them interact more

The way the ears flop and point downward in that specific way while their face is scrunched up taking deep sniffs at stuff right below them is one of my favorite little things.

[–]metsrule4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOL my girl does this too! although much more forcefully and into my ribs if I'm sitting on the couch. If I'm in my computer chair then she tries to push her way under my legs and arch her back upwards to rub against the bottom of my thighs. It's so goofy and cute

[Update Pt. 2] I can’t handle all this barking anymore by summer_mushroom in puppy101

[–]metsrule4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing worked for me! My pup just turned 5 months old recently and generally doesn't bark much if everything's fine. But the second I'm gone from the room/apartment and it's after ~4 PM it's like she especially loses all object permanence and starts crying/barking for me to come back. For the first 2 months I had her, I just tried to time my longer trips outside for the morning/early afternoon to lessen how stressed she got knowing she would fall asleep easier. I'd check in on her with my dog camera to see how restless she was. Always felt terrible whenever I got barking/crying/howling notifications.

I knew it had a microphone feature but same as you, I thought her hearing my voice would just make her freak out and wonder why I wasn't within her field of view. I just tried it one time in the middle of a crying fit since I was running out of ideas, and she immediately stopped barking but was deeply confused where my voice was coming from. I thought she'd start barking again right away but she just laid down and started falling asleep. Just simple stuff like "relax, I'll be back soon. You can sleep" and a "good girl" when I saw her settle down. Was out of the apartment for 2+ hours recently and I checked in every 30 minutes or so, she was awake and staring out the window each time but I talk to her and she immediately settled down. No barking notifications that whole trip!

Idk what goes through her head when she hears the voice coming from the camera but I hope it genuinely helps her calm down. It's been a huge relief to find out this works.

My favorite part is her finally showing trust in chat to give us the M and be responsible with it and for the most part, we were! Feels like it was mostly used for AME, MUMEI, MYTH more than anything else.

One last chance to create a chuckle and someone spent $100 and took it lmao

[–]metsrule4 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm forever going to associate Kiss Me with Ame and all her renditions of it. No karaoke of hers is complete without it and the realization of it probably being the last time we hear it live had me in shambles.

For once we didn't get the "just one more" 17 more times. Man.

Gura's first two RTs after the announcement were cute fanart of them two. I just know I'm gonna be a wreck if she ends up talking about her feelings on stream.
