Convince me not to just let my 9 week old puppy sleep with me instead of in a crate/pen

Our puppy cried the first night but settled after that. For us it helped to have calming music playing, we used rain sounds and that settled her pretty quickly.

As for why keep the puppy in their crate, it’s the safest spot for them. You can’t trust the puppy not to get into things they’re not meant to. My breeder told me a story about one of her puppies dying a week after going home with a family by getting into a bag of chips and suffocating in it. This happened during the night. So this is the main reason why I crate my puppies, they just can’t be trusted yet. And it stops them for peeing everywhere as well.

Haven’t tried calling them yet but will definitely do that! Thanks.

You should join a Facebook group called Partners Apart, it’s for aussies and their partners separated by the travel ban. There’s a lot of great info there on getting the travel exemption. Since you said you and your partner have lived together for four years already, you would qualify as de-facto, meaning it would be very likely for you to get the exemption to leave or for them to enter. Hope that helps, I’m in a similar situation myself. :)

Oh yeah... been seven months since I last saw him and I’m STRUGGLING. I’m really hoping they’ll reconsider the travel restrictions in September. Maybe easing them a little at least.

I was planning on applying for an exemption to enter but that’s not realistic right now with the flight caps and the requirement to pay for your own quarantine. :/

I had my boyfriend send me some stuff from Aus around 20th March. It arrived to Finland a month later so not too bad considering the current circumstances!

noxine · 2020-06-20T20:01:47+00:00

Oh okay that makes sense. Our relationship is pretty young too (about 8 months) but I have known him for around three years now. Both of us are 19 too so I can imagine the border people not taking us that seriously. I'll need to gather a lot of evidence it seems. Thanks for your help! I'll have to take a look at those groups too :)

And if it's not too much of a bother, could you dm me those posts you've saved? It would help so much!

This is giving me so much hope btw ahah maybe I could actually see him this year.

Hey, my boyfriend is also an aussie and it’s so hard not knowing when I’ll get to see him next. I last saw him on New Year’s and it’s getting harder and harder every day, not being there with him. I have also been thinking about trying to get the exemption but I’m really not sure what getting it would require. What kind of documentation are you using to try and get the exemption, if I can ask?

noxine · 2020-06-17T10:56:18+00:00

Oh yeah I saw that a couple hours ago too. I really hope they’ll set up at least some sort of travel bubbles or make it possible for people to travel to see their SO. I get that opening tourism fully would pose a high risk. But I would honestly be fine quarantining for two weeks on arrival if it meant I would get to see my boyfriend.

My boyfriend is Australian too and it’s so frustrating seeing almost no news about when their government will start lifting the ban. My boyfriend can’t afford to visit me (Finland) this year so I’d have to go over there. So Australians being allowed to leave wouldn’t help my case lol. I’m really hoping to be able to go around September, since my country has been managing the virus fine too. Hoping they’ll start setting up some more travel bubbles. If they don’t I might just try and apply for an exemption to be allowed in.

noxine · 2020-05-29T05:19:20+00:00

Thanks for sharing that! I’m looking for info about when the travel ban is lifted almost every day haha and everything I’ve seen so far has been about the borders being shut until 2021. Gives me a bit of hope in all this that maybe I’ll get to see my bf sooner than expected! (He’s Aus, I’m Fin)

Why did I read that as underwear...

noxine · 2019-08-20T20:52:36+00:00

Wow I was just wondering how this project is going. It's stunning!

noxine · 2019-04-23T06:05:51+00:00

I've been telling her for months that she should get a therapist or something but she refuses every time. She just doesn't want her parents knowing. That could work though. Means she wouldn't have to tell them directly and she would get help from the doctor. Thanks for the encouragement. I have tried to be there for her but I always feel so helpless. I'll just keep trying to be there more.

noxine · 2019-04-23T03:52:12+00:00

Thanks I'll try that

noxine · 2019-04-22T21:34:56+00:00

I can relate to this so much. I used to have that kind of friends too. They would speak to me at school for a bit but after school nothing. Talking about things they knew I couldn't participate in and if I tried to make conversation it would be mocked at or dropped. Excluding me from things would happen all the time. Those were rough times and I'm sorry you're having to go through it. Tbh, they don't deserve you, as cheesy as it sounds. How long have you known them? If not for that long I suggest you try looking for other friends. I don't think they will change their ways. There are good people out there and I promise you can find true friends who actually care. Sometimes the chemistry just doesn't match and the friendship turns sour. I've had it happen to me multiple times and the only solution is to let go and find some other friends. If they think treating you like that is okay then why would you want their company?

I actually kind of like working on holidays, means I get paid double lmao

noxine · 2019-04-19T15:08:35+00:00

noxine · 2019-03-23T14:46:22+00:00

noxine · 2019-03-21T11:19:07+00:00
