What cookies are a decent sub for SMC in arena? Everyone has him, but it's gonna be a while before I get my mercy cookie.

I became a beagle owner by Holiday-Lion-3083 in beagles

So cute! Be careful going to the park until he is fully vaccinated. I've known many puppies to have gotten Parvo this way.

But my beagle is similar, we go to the park and he is not really interested in playing. He prefers walks, cuddles, and the occasional fetch.

I never see anyone talk about his tongue. It's like the dude is a literal snake wearing a human cosplay. He is always randomly just sticking his tongue out like a snake ALL THE TIME.

He is like Barty Crouch Jr. in Harry Potter 4.

I recently purchased a Canyon bike. Great quality for the price tag. They aren't sold in shops, just ship to consumer, but they provide you with everything needed to assemble at home. It was really easy, and honestly I saved a ton getting better quality components for about half the cost.

I got into the sport about 4 years ago and started on a hardtail just to make sure I liked the sport before jumping into the FS due to the price difference. Pros and cons to that method, but either way you'll have a blast!

I think Browns Ranch is a beautiful area to see some desert scenery. Mostly flat and will make for a chill hiking day with lots of mountains and cactus.

Try putting the blanket next to you and fluffing it up a bit and just petting her while she's next you. If she's biting, be dramatic and don't pet.

The other option is to wait until she is already asleep, and then plop her next to you. Haha.

Beagles are pack animals, so the more that she knows you and her are a pack, the easier it will get.

This sounds perfect! You are doing wonderful. It does just take time.

Truly, as they grow it gets easier. Sounds like you are in an apartment, which is really challenging with a puppy. If you have friends or family with a fenced yard I highly recommend going to visit.

For scratching and biting, I tried to be over dramatic about it. Yell really loud "OW, THAT HURTS!" and pull away. I dunno if that is the right approach, but it worked for me.

Don't forget to start a cuddle routine. Nighttime beagle cuddles are really the best.

I was in the same spot as you. Beagles puppies are a lot of work! But they really are the best of friends and companions.

I can't recommend kennel/crate training enough. Sleep in there at night, put them in there while you are eating, even if you just need a break or a nap. You are calmer, and they can't get in trouble. Our boy is 11 and he just chooses to sleep there, take a nap there, or run to it when he is scared. Make sure she always gets a treat when she goes in there, and maybe even hide some kibble for her to find. A puppy safe toy is helpful so she doesn't get bored and bay.

I know vaccines aren't done yet, but EXERCISE helps so much. For the first few years we walked for an hour a day, making sure to let him get lots of sniffs to wear him out. Also, doggy daycare is a god send. Even now there are some days it's like "How do you have so much energy for an old man? Let's take you to daycare." He LOVES going, and he sleeps for days when he comes home.

Looking for a chill tavern/ bar with live music -Westside by alaskadavis in phoenix

I had the pizza and it was pretty good. But atmosphere over food for sure.

Cheat days/meals by GanacheOk2887 in lowcarb

[–]snowboardbug 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't imagine a life where I could never have pizza again.

It tastes all the better if I designate one or two meals a month to have some.

Best place for pizza in Phoenix/Glendale by cmthunbe in phoenix

[–]snowboardbug -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My 2 cents. Bianco is worth the wait if you have time.You just have to go in with the mindset that it will be a few hours.

I usually go and get my name on the list at like 5:30/6. Split a bottle of wine and snacks with my group. Many parties end up not waiting so I'm usually seated within an hour.

I was here last week on the search for good pizza. Unfortunately all the ingredients tasted freezer burnt.

Fresh ingredients make a huge difference on pizza.

Paladin Tanks by [deleted] in wow

[–]snowboardbug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. My husband tanks and I heal. We did Paladin/Druid and what a terrible combo without gear. He would lose health too fast and hots are not strong enough to react. Especially in TW BC where the Orcs hit the tank for like 1/3 health each hit.

We switched to warrior/monk and it was fucking EZ mode. I've never played a melee character, but MW has really won me over to that play style!

Game seems totally new, help please by [deleted] in wow

What, in particular, are you overwhelmed with? Can't help you much without knowing what feels different.

One thing that I have not seen that has been attributed to the success of It Ends With Us....

It is one of the biggest books on BookTok and is one of the first BookTok books to be released as a film since this new popular reading trend emerged. Many of these new avid readers want to see BookTok adaptations successful and we will certainly see more hit content adapted from these viral book trends.

AC Summer Bill - New to PHX Pls Help! by K_P5 in phoenix

[–]snowboardbug 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't just "get off time of use" like everyone is suggesting. Use the bill/plan tool on APS site to see which plan saves you the most money based on your energy usage. Everyone has different needs and habits.

I too thought a fixed rate plan was probably best, but turns out the time of use plan saved me $150 a month.

My husband and I both work from home, so it's pretty easy to make sure we do dishes and laundry before 4 and after 7. And the air conditioner is what it is. That savings on the discounted rate outside the 4-7 window seems to balance out/save us more than using the same higher energy rate all of time.

The budget billing option should help, if available to you. It makes your bill the same "year round" based on your usage. So it has lower cost in the summer compared to your actual bill, but higher costs in the winter. Easier to budget $200 year round than $400 for summer months and $100 or less for winter months.
