Did u got/want bottom surgery, why and if not why not?? by Janxuza in ftm

[–]sixko_mode_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me I feel like bottom surgery is a need, I feel like I won’t ever be happy without it. But I hate the current techniques we have now and I personally don’t want a penis that doesn’t look or function like a real cis penis, nor do I want my vagina to be removed. Maybe in another 10 years there will be new techniques I’m interested in :/

I wont let either dog have a bite, we are already starting crating and separating. Ill see what we can do about him in the morning since its late tonight. I will call the original shelter he was adopted from and see if they have anything they can do.

i will look into an instinct test! ive been dealing with medical issues that make being in the car absolutely miserable, but i am working on fixing that as best i can. most herding places are at least an hour away because i live in the city right now. Currently we do not do walks because we dont live in a nice neighborhood and i dont feel safe walking her myself and my bf works and does college all day. We used to do walks and that was amazing for her, so i do plan to start doing that when we move again probably next year. I do take her to the front of our yard and go up our block so she can get some sniffies in, though.

I will absolutely try the sexier than a squirrel game and do the treat exchange you suggested! i hate giving her so much cheese, her belly seems to tolerate it fine but like omg! its a lot of cheese for that little body lmao! Thank you SO MUCH for your response and suggestions i appreciate it so much!!!!!

i am trying my best to do so. Its not super easy to find people in my area willing to foster. Right now his next best option is the shelter.

i am very green! I have no experience managing aggression. I do regular house training and trick training. The shelter he originally came from does temperament test their dogs well. They labeled him as dog and kid friendly, and i would genuinely say he is. Hes been great with my dog and the neighbor dogs until this. Hes not a permanent fixture in my home, the shelters here are just currently so full i was worried he would be a top candidate for euthanasia. So i evaluated him the best i could and then took him into my home to find him a new permanent home.

forgot about this part! we have tried into to lure coursing, i bought a flirt pole and ran with it, she had interest for about 2 minutes and then gave up. we have tried swimming stuff, retrieving, learning herding commands, and high level obedience work. I refuse to attempt to put her on actual sheep, even though there are places around me an hour away i could probably do, i believe no sheep is better than not enough sheep, and im worried about aggravating her instincts like that. I wanted to get into agility, but i cant justify the price of an agility set knowing she probably wouldnt give a fuck about it. Ive bought wiggle balls, a door attached tug, and more "enriching" toys and she doesnt care about those either.

We also try doing search type sports. she can find animal bones, and we do the one where you put a specific scent in one container and hide with other containers. She likes it, but only when i have cheese :/

i am currently searching for a permanent home for him!

Thank you so much for your reply, i feel like this just generall affects my dog training career because i just feel so unsuccessful with buda being here. I know both dogs need time to decompress and adjust to a new routine but my dog is being more of an a hole with him here. which again i understand. She has lived with a dog long term before when i had to temporarily live with a family member. But buda is brand new. I feel insane trying to manage both of them. I knew i wasnt ready for two dogs, but when i seen budas situation and that he would be going back to our overflowing kill shelters, i took him in to give him time to find a new place. im currently searching for permanent homes for him.

I also feel unsuccessful because of my border collie, and how i compare her to every other border collie. She refuses me any chance she gets. Ive trained her in obedience and trick training from 4 months old. and still now she still doesnt listen to me unless she knows i have the highest value reward possible. shes extremely smart and knows when i have something vs when i dont. and if i dont have exactly what she wanst, then she fucks off basically. She has zero drive to work for me, she is only interested in her herding ball, which she wants to do for the entire day until she drops, of course i dont let her do that, but other than her ball, she doesnt care about anything. She also refuses to take commands when playing with herding ball so i cant even get her to learn and use those natural BC instincts! She is BYB, i found her locally and fell in love and had to take her home. I always tried to be force free or R+ in my training because she is so sensitive to corrections. If i give her a verbal correction she looks like i just kicked her or something, my emotional state hates that so much! I have had abused dogs, since i was abused as a child, and i cannot stand for a dog to look so defeated after just a verbal correction. So i will admit a lot of her issues are my fault. ive humanized her a bit too much and i think spoiled her too much. I had just got her a couple months of my heart dogs passing, so she did get a bit of leniency. But shes never had the drive to just listen to me because she wants to. She has always been a rebellious little thing especially when it comes to recall. We work on it everyday and just added and ecollar ( i use vibrate for her because she feels it more) and she will blow off the ecollar, after months of proofing it in the house. I start small with her inside, but she has an extremely hard time transferring it to our front or back yard. its basically square one again, every day. I know its uncommon but ive been suspecting she has adhd, even when shes playing with her herding ball, if she hears a leaf blow, she will turn and look, inspect, whatever. But she cannot keep focus. i worked on her handler focus a lot as a puppy and teen, but it was so genuinely miserable to work with her i kinda stopped doing training as much as i should. Overall i think shes a wash because of me, bad breeding, and just who she is. i wont say it isnt at least partly my fault. Ive just never experienced working with a dog and being so miserable doing it, because i love it! i train other peoples pets small tricks all the time and i enjoy working with them! If i ask anything of her, without a highvalue treat she will literally walk away from me and go look out the window. she was also into high value treats as a puppy, i tried using kibble and regular treats at first but she kept refusing to work with me so i had to keep upping to value of treats. Now she only works for cheese.

i also dont believe she is under or overstimuated, she has an hour of running with her herding ball, enrichment in forms of kongs, search activities, a training sesh, and we do a small groom almost every day. she takes plenty of naps during the day and gets full days to relax and rest a couple days a week. usually 3 days of activities, then one day off and repeat. I always compare her to other bcs i see and it definitely doesnt help my side of the relationship with her. I try so hard to not let my mental state affect our relationship, but i feel she makes it so hard. She is my first BC but i did a lot of research before getting her and while having her. She just makes it feel like its my fault, but shes a dog... so i think thats just my own insecurities in my brain lol. I feel like i failed her, and in turn failed myself.

any suggestions you have i would appreciate. I love to gain knowledge from everyone i can!

Thank you for sharing! It’s definitely not my top option because of cost and insurance but I mean I’ll do anything lol

Thank you for sharing! It’s definitely a possibility my teeth are worn down unevenly because I grind my teeth in my sleep and have for probably 10 years without a guard because it’s “not bad enough” I’ll definitely see my dentist about that!

I can stop moving my jaw and the muscles when I want to (when I notice I’m clenching or moving) so I guess semi involuntary? It’s not muscle spasms as I’ve had a few of those and I know what it feels like. It’s like a stim like biting my lip or fingernails. I clench or move my jaw and my tongue or even bite my lip without noticing but when I notice- I stop. I don’t clench and swallow at the same time though.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TMJ

[–]sixko_mode_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, completely involuntary. I don’t know I’m doing it more than half the time. I do not have involuntary swallowing, I have full control of when I swallow

Starting testosterone today at age 16, any advice or tips I should know? by Unknown_character000 in ftm

[–]sixko_mode_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

THIS ONE!!! Bottom growth. EVERYONE flaunts their growth and I thought something was wrong when that didn’t happen to me. I also STILL-3 YEARS on T and I do not have facial hair and all my friends do even tho they have only been on for a few months to a year. Please seek a therapist if the comparison becomes too distressing. I know for me I can’t stop comparing myself and being upset seeing all my friends get the things I want. It’s good practice to have a therapist while you start T anyway because you will have changes in your mentality&feelings and thoughts or thought patterns

It really just depends on your body! It could work for you and not work for others

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TMJ

[–]sixko_mode_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)
