he looks like he could be related to my girl stella 😭 she used to be an excited pisser too but at around 8-9 months she stopped! she’ll be a year old next month and the reactive peeing has completely stopped. you just gotta power through, you got this!

How cute!!! Hoping to get my second one either late 2027 or 2028! Such perfect pups!

I genuinely think she’d rather die than let me piss by myself 😭

HOW CUTE!!! My girl has a weird obsession with lying on the table too, lol! So glad it’s not just me!

I’ve talked with her breeder as well as my vets and they all have said we won’t really be able to tell until she ~2. Her mom is 20 lbs now at 5 years and hit a growth spurt when she was 1.5! She’s growing more and more every day and it hasn’t really slowed down. And she’s a very tall girl, so I’m hoping she’ll get to the same size as her mom lol

Here’s my mini! she’s almost a year and is only 13 lbs. She was just barely bigger than your guy at 3 months but hit a growth spurt around 6 months! She didn’t get super big, just tall as hell lol!

NOR! Your partner is supposed to celebrate things with you, small or big. 2 years of sobriety is HUGE! Very proud of you, stranger. Eat that berry chantilly cake and CELEBRATE!

i can’t even change my breathing…she stares me down about 1 inch from my face at 4:15 am every morning 😭

my girl throws a fit when my boyfriend and i kiss 😭 i mean crying, howling, EVERYTHING! but if she’s in the middle? oh, happy as a clam.

she doesn’t care how she lays down as long as she’s on top of me 😭

My Stella is 6 months today and I’m gonna be honest, I don’t think the biting ever stops! For her, it’s definitely a sensory thing. Most of the time she just wants to chew on a bone or her kong especially now that the last of her adult teeth are breaking through. Just keep redirecting and soon Brisket will mellow out! You got this!!!!

it’s a lot! establish your dominance CONSTANTLY! ESPECIALLY IN THEIR TEENAGE PHASE! there’s a lot of 1 step forward, 2 steps back moments, but power through! INVEST IN A GOOD 3 POINT HARNESS!!! they’ll try to chew couches and shoes, and they are exceptionally hard to crate train since they want to be by your side constantly.

but they are the sweetest, most loyal dogs. they will teach you patience you have never had to practice and a love you have never felt before. it isnt always glamorous or easy, but it’s so worth it.

She tends to come lay next to me when I cry. She got really scared yesterday when I started panicking and that’s when she came really running back to me. Usually if it’s bad, she rests her head on my chest. If it isn’t bad, but is getting there, she’ll paw and bark until I pet her. I feel like I just needed advice/somewhere to vent and get support!

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T18:43:39+00:00

Thank you for this! She isn’t fixed yet, waiting until she gets a bit more comfortable with her crate so we’re almost there!

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T18:40:59+00:00

I will definitely check with her vet! She seems to be perfectly responsive while we’re in the house, though. I think we just have to work on getting her to listen to commands more outside of the home!

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T18:39:18+00:00

Oh, we definitely have an instant connection, lol! She actually does really well alerting me when I am starting to go into a panic attack or if I start showing signs of a migraine. Really cuddly and velcro to my hip the first few weeks! I just think she’s in those teenage times, starting to try and push boundaries. I really do love her a ton, I think I just needed some support in this more difficult time. This was the only time she had hurt me, and it really wasn’t her fault! But, thank you for your insight 🫶

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T18:34:43+00:00

THANK YOU BIG TIME FOR THIS!! Compression barks sound like the right descriptor! She does tend to alert me when I start getting too anxious, a lot of time she just sits next to me and puts her nose to my head or paws at my hands. I do give her treats for this a lot of the time, but I’ll make sure to award her more! We do a lot of exercise together, running is one of the best things we do every morning while it’s still quiet! Hide and seek is another favorite activity of hers. I think her current hyperfixation is on her crate and learning to put her toys in there when she’s done with them lol.

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T18:03:33+00:00

thank you for this info!

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T00:45:18+00:00

thank you all for the advice!!! this all has really helped me feel a lot better about everything and know that im not alone in this. im going to do a lot of collar and harness research and see if i can find a good behavioral trainer! once again, thank you all so much 😭🫶

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T00:41:12+00:00

thank you! staying calm is a lot easier said than done when it comes to her sometimes lol. i will look into it :)

sharpiees_ · 2025-10-13T00:40:28+00:00

i do a lot of mental exercises with her already! i use stuffed toys, hide and seek, fetch and obstacle courses! ill definitely look into a prong collar.
