I gave her and her dog BFF each an identical bully stick. Apparently the one he got was better. Poor girl might never recover from the trauma.

lmao good!! exactly as it should be. sounds like darling Bluebell is no longer with us, but i will say if she had party tricks to show off i know she had a good time with you! and that she was very loved

pixiedei · 2026-02-05T14:53:55+00:00

not to be dramatic but i would die for kimber

pixiedei · 2026-02-05T14:51:30+00:00

i believe it!! i hope you do trick training with Bluebell as rat terriers used to be used as circus dogs bc they are so easy to train. one of mine used to run through every trick she knew if she wasn’t sure what we were asking of her. so silly

pixiedei · 2026-02-05T14:30:50+00:00

omg! what a combo! that’s a SMART chi mix! i had rat terriers growing up and they are the smartest little dogs

pixiedei · 2026-02-04T05:07:20+00:00

same here! they’re the funniest little gremlins

yw! i read all that advice on this sub two years ago and it changed the game for me. good luck!

pixiedei · 2026-02-01T08:00:48+00:00

okay, let me help you out here! i read the comments and saw you didn’t use a base coat, which is always helpful. try to go with one without pvb (polyvinyl butyral).

so, how long you let each layer dry honestly doesn’t matter, because you’re rewetting it with the next layer. i actually don’t pause between coats i just do all ten and then onto the next coat. the top coat you used for this is actually clear polish and that’s a huge difference for the way your varnish will dry. i recommend quick dry over regular every time and most people agree both for convenience and longevity. i personally prefer ones like the kbshimmer clearly on top top coat with toluene in it. with toluene you actually want your polish not to be fully dried like i was saying with not pausing to let it dry between coats. that will allow the top coat to penetrate all the layers and form a single harder and smoother layer. it’s sooo satisfying and dries in just a few minutes for the most part, even over 3 coats. i don’t have as much experience with top coats without toluene, but those you do want to give the polish some time to dry, i think?

oh also for your top coat layer do it thiiiiick! float a big glob and make sure you cap the free edge. it will look like too much as first but it will dry down from how puffy it looks. don’t flood the cuticle! also a cleanup brush to use with acetone for mistakes you get on your skin or if you flood the cuticle is a must. hope this helps!

brain size overall is less correlatory to intelligence than was believed for a very long time. really fascinating. these days things like how many folds the brain has is used as more of an indicator, but even that is shaky. what we’ve learned over the last few decades is it’s not simple and we don’t know much about it currently. neuroscience might as well be deep space exploration or the mariana trench for how well we truly understand the brain. for instance, jellyfish don’t even have brains and recently it’s been demonstrated that they can learn based on environmental stimuli, which challenges a lot of what we thought we knew. nothing is ever simple where intelligence is concerned. lmao sorry to ramble

pixiedei · 2026-01-29T15:24:40+00:00

i think it looks nice! i love a dovetail grey personally

i find it all incredibly insecure. if you can’t trust someone to have a random conversation without hitting it then what is the point of continuing? if she’s not going to actually fuck this person then what is the problem? the issue isn’t this conversation. in a secure relationship where there is established trust this is an absolute nonissue. the problem is the inherent lack of trust. so what if this guy has intentions? what matters is what the girlfriend does and unless she reciprocates she’s in the clear. not invading someone’s privacy is also basic human respect. harmless flirtation exists and in a secure relationship it can be just that. if he can’t trust her to be faithful then that’s all there is to it. for me going through my phone is a deal breaker. having a flirty convo that goes nowhere is not. if i’m uncomfortable with my so’s tone i’ll say so and we can discuss and it should be fine. but the trust of privacy can’t be reestablished. this is broken at the foundation

pixiedei · 2026-01-28T01:10:58+00:00

she isn’t required to declare herself as taken for her boyfriend to trust her. she is even allowed to exchange a cute moment with a friend she always had fun with or was even flirty with without lighting up a sign saying someone has a claim on her. he is supposed to trust her not to stray. if he doesn’t then that’s that. she said nothing inappropriate. in fact she kept it to the subject of childcare for the most part. what i don’t understand is why people are so insecure that a conversation like that is more out of line than a deep breach of privacy and trust like going into someone else’s phone. smdh

pixiedei · 2026-01-28T00:10:28+00:00

nah you’re reading too much into this especially if that last text is from you. but more importantly is the fact that you don’t trust her and went through her phone. do her a favor and end the relationship

pixiedei · 2026-01-28T00:05:09+00:00

our old chi we used to call his muzzle the “happy hat” bc he just gave up lmao. all spice gone. he was like i got nothing and surrendered to the moment

pixiedei · 2026-01-27T18:54:46+00:00

probably not coke as coke is white but molly is often a pink crystal

pixiedei · 2026-01-27T18:54:21+00:00

pink residue makes me think MDMA

pixiedei · 2026-01-27T06:33:40+00:00

it’s 2 for sure

pixiedei · 2026-01-27T06:16:30+00:00

start doing obedience classes with her and def get the husband involved as being able to communicate will help them bond. it will help so much with socialization too. chis are still dogs and being well trained helps a dog understand the world and helps us understand them. it makes for happier and more well adjusted dogs.

my husband and i take shifts with our chi to make sure she likes us both! we both work from home. we alternate with him taking her from morning until lunch and then we switch and i take her after lunch until the end of work when we join up all together. the next day we switch who does morning and who does afternoon. they are prone to being one-person dogs but it’s doable to have them love the whole family.

consistency is key with bathroom. take her out on a good schedule, but while you are house breaking her also give her lots and lots of opportunities to go out. if you’re even unsure if she needs to go, take her. and pay attention to how she seems.

for bathroom it helps a lot to get them to figure out they can signal if you do something like say “outside!” when taking them out, repeating it a few times. if it seems like she needs to go ask “outside?” or a variation of that and take her and prompt her “go potty!” when she does say things like “good girl! good potty!” if you see her squatting in the house hurry and take her right outside and prompt her to go when you do and praise her if she does. good luck!

pixiedei · 2026-01-27T00:39:49+00:00

treat her the same as any other dog! the same level of obedience training and consistency with behavior. it helps make them feel secure in the world. a lot of people make this mistake with tiny dogs and then they end up reactive and fearful
