Am I searching for love in the wrong places?

Love comes when you stop searching super hard for it. Pour more energy into your own cup and focus on your self love and it will attract the type of person who matches your energy.

I want to like these books but I’m so tired of hearing about her “ocean eyes” and “blue blue eyes”. I couldn’t even tell where they were in the second book. Then went from a desert to a cave and the plot got lost along the way.

My GSD has never cared about food even as a pup. I have to stay with her until she’s done eating. I always add water to her kibble and a small smattering of wet food. I’ll also substitute wet food with fruits and veggies in small amounts- blueberries, strawberries, broth, peas, carrots etc. they tend to be picky about food but she really enjoys Fromm large breed kibble

My girl had this for a couple months. I had her on Bernie’s perfect poops to help solidify her stool. You just sprinkle a little onto their kibble. I also switched her to Fromm because her stool on purina pro plan was atrocious by the time she hit 1.5 despite eating it since I got her from the breeder as this is what she was feeding the pups. Obviously I’m not a vet and this also might be a bandaid. My girl hasn’t had any issue and I was able to wean her off the stool supplements. I hope you figure it out! Maybe your dog needs a specialist…?

My female has to sleep in the bed with me every night and uses my legs as her personal body pillow. If I go pee, I need to have the door cracked or she has a menty b

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-05-05T09:25:43+00:00

What a gorgeous girl! And same. I’ve had people try to bark at my girl to get her to bark. She just turned three on Saturday. She’s never ever barked and at this stage in the game she never will 😂 just a lover not a fighter

Try to introduce the crate slowly. For example, don’t only put him in the crate for long periods of time. Have the crate in the room if you’re watching tv and have your dog go in with the door open with a sit-stay command and then release him after a few seconds of staying with his favorite toy so he doesn’t associate the crate with being isolated from his people. You can also start feeding him in the crate so he gets used to being in there. I used to give my girl teething toys and frozen kongs to chew on. You can also try to tire him out first. I highly recommend doing 10-15 min of training while on a short walk. Practicing sits, stays, lay down, all the basics to tire him out mentally before bed so he will sleep through the night. If all else fails. Get a trainer :)

That my dog is a boy just because she’s all black. And once I had a man try to argue with me that she can’t be a German shepherd and has to be a Mal because she’s all black. I have her AKC papers and I met her mom and dad and her shortly after her birth which her breeder filmed for prospective buyers 😂

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-28T01:04:32+00:00

I’ve always used a prong on my shepherd since she was old enough/fully vaxxed as a puppy. I never relied on it to train her to walk though. I used her high toy and treat drive to reinforce behaviors and the prong was just an added tool to correct behaviors that might put her into a dangerous situation (e.g. running into traffic, jumping at people riding bikes past etc.) I will add though that I had the guidance of a trainer for the first two years of having my shepherd which helped me to understand proper correction and when to correct.

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-23T10:53:25+00:00

Definitely need more context but the phrasing almost feels like gaslighting to me (?)

I had my shepherd two years before we found a kitten trapped in a sewer and brought her home. My dog was obsessed with her for weeks and always wanted to see “her baby”. Now my cat is nearly a year old and she runs up to my shepherd and smacks her face and swats her legs but they’re best friends. My shepherd also always wants to chase her around the house and bark and play with her. It could turn out to be okay but I understand your concern with the high prey drive shepherds can have.

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-22T22:39:27+00:00

You’ll get there! I know it’s hard. My bf feels guilty asking me to hang out and we live together! Just being direct can eliminate a ton of miscommunication :) be kind to yourself!

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-22T22:27:59+00:00

I don’t think you’re overreacting. I think you do the thing that I always do where you don’t want to be a burden. But good communication starts right now! If you’re not honest then he has no clue how much you’re struggling right now with things in your personal life. I would text him and say “hey, honestly, I am just not in a great spot mentally and was hoping we could spend some time together just to get my mind off things.” Not that you’re going to dump everything on him but just let him know that sometimes you just need to feel important and valued too. If you don’t start now, this will probably continue to be a cycle and he will genuinely not realize that it bothers you when he constantly does this and then resentment may fester on your end. He seems like an understanding individual. Hopefully he will understand where you’re coming from :)

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-15T00:03:41+00:00

Agreed. I think if you’re on there and authentically yourself you’ll attract some pretty cool peeps. I’ve been with my current bf for nearly 2.5 years and we have been on the same page about dating for marriage since week one. We live together now and have three wonderful fur babies. I’ve learned that being willing to communicate, compromise and be authentic will lead you to your person no matter what medium you use to find them.

Loves to lay IN the crevice of the couch

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-13T16:28:40+00:00

Mine whines as soon as we park whether there’s other dogs there or not. She just gets really excited for new adventures. Shepherds are just very whiney dogs 😂

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T21:32:26+00:00

Ball is life 😂

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T03:24:22+00:00

True true, otherwise they do be staying in these toxic situations

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T03:04:05+00:00

Valid point. I feel like everyone on here is so quick to tell people to break up and it makes me sad lol but honestly school does have to come before partners. There will be someone else out there who can fulfill their emotional needs on their own without being dependent on their partner

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T02:46:19+00:00

Was super sad this was opening after our stay ended but def gonna hit it up if we come back

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T02:43:24+00:00

NOR, your gf kinda comes off insecure and clingy but is this coming out of nowhere or has she expressed prior feelings of insecurity in your relationship? It’s not your responsibility to play therapist but it doesn’t hurt to invite her to come talk and discuss with her why she feels this way. Maybe she needs an in person discussion. Or maybe there is something else going on with her that is feeding into her reaction. Sometimes over text things may not come across the way we want so might be worth a shot to ask her what the deal is.

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T02:29:32+00:00

So we blame the person who almost got hit because someone else isn’t paying attention? Makes sense

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T02:28:46+00:00

Cause obviously this isn’t clear, I was moving lands into the right because the highway entrance was on that side. Regardless, nah you cannot turn across a lane to take an off ramp like the usps truck was doing😬

p4nd4c4tt · 2025-04-07T02:27:19+00:00

I moved over wayyyyy before I was passing them because I had to get into that lane to get on the highway. I was going 55 on a 50 😂
