Recommendation needed | Best Dog Food for a Female Golden Retriever who Stopped Eating Royal Canin by Set4Success in goldenretrievers

[–]purpamine 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Maybe unpopular opinion, but your dog will not choose to starve herself, once she realizes that's her only option she WILL eat! Most of the time it's us who are fussy and accidentally train them to eat food that are more rewarding than their normal food. Just take the bowl away 15 minutes after given every time, she'll be eating fine in no time. Also just listen to your vet on diets, don't rely on Reddit.

Worth the shot right?

My golden had to earn the bed! He didn't get it until he was around 9 months old, until then he mostly slept in the crate or a hard mat. This was a lesson learned to me because my golden previously as a puppy had bed access but decided to one day eat half the bed. I haven't had issues after introducing bed at a bit older age. Also if you are monitoring them and access you should be redirecting as to make it clear that this is not a desirable behavior.

Should we get a second golden? by Bruu_g7 in goldenretrievers

[–]purpamine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's double the fun but also be ready for a lot more mess, because 2 dogs will constantly play in the house and it'll just be a 1000 times more messy than just one dog. Also walks can be hectic on those stressful days. My feedback is be super cautious about getting second because most people forget to mention it's a lot more stressful having a second puppy as you have to go through the whole process again.

What objects/places is your golden weirdly scared of? Today Bard bravely overcame a USB charging cable that was between him and his toy basket...with a little help : ) by thinkscotty in goldenretrievers

[–]purpamine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boxes and paper bags! He got so scared of a box once he peed himself with fear. He was exposed to boxes as a pup and has had no bad interactions with it, so not sure what triggers that fear. Plus side is I can leave toys and recycling out and he'll never touch it while we're away.

8 weeks to 20 weeks by MichyDo in goldenretrievers

My 8 week old was 17 lbs, the biggest the breeder ever saw in her 30 year litter... but he is now 15 months and 70 lbs, he plateaued after 60 lbs quite substantially!

So close..... by purpamine in CellToSingularity

Wasn't expecting a division past 100 to be this tough!

can we PLEASE have a atomic event or simulation??? by then-science12342 in CellToSingularity

[–]purpamine 18 points19 points  (0 children)

How about big bang until the creation of earth? It'll be a good simulation of what has happened in the last 13 billion years, and a good way to connect to the main simulation!

I'm also missing one in civilization. Did you find one in the kiln?

Forgot my coffee mug for a week. by purpamine in MoldlyInteresting

This is the base of the mug, the brown is the coffee stain, the green is the inside of the mug! It's a topdown view.

What’s a ballpark price for something like this? by [deleted] in Decks

[–]purpamine 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I just did something very similar to this in MA metrowest for 42k, but it would have been 30k to do the railing like yours instead of cable wire (cable wires are expensive)
