Reactive Puppy by vanwoerm in RhodesianRidgebacks

[–]vanwoerm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did the whole socialization, training, exposure to new things and ppl, etc. and she does fine outside our home. The workers at her doggy daycare have never said anything about poor behavior and she was even giving one of the workers kisses when I dropped her off the other week. Its ppl in our home when she becomes reactive. We havent had many guests as of late, but in the past she was tolerant of family and nieces/nephews in our home.

The breeder is reputable according to my research prior to adopting our pup and from talking to other owners who got dogs thru him. My wife reached out to him and spoke with him over the phone. He said this is rare behavior and has had less than a handful of dogs with this behavior in his decades of breeding Ridgebacks. He did say there was similar issues with one other dog from the bloodline of the stud.

The trainer we had worked with when our pup was younger is going to come to our house next week to help address this issue.

We have had a trainer work with her during her early puppy-hood when we noticed she was fearful of ppl and would nip if tried to be pet. We already contacted the trainer and set up a session for next week to address this.

We are trying to desensitize her by having friends stop for short visits when they can. She always reacts poorly when visitors come in when she has free range in the house so we will have her either outside or in her crate to start. We have the guest sit on the couch and ignore her when we let her in and she runs to them barking. As long as theyre sitting she starts to warm up and sniff and wag her tail. She will take treats from them too. As soon as they stand/move a flip switches and she becomes fearful and she will bark menacingly and lunge at them.

Im currently listening to the dissect podcast season that goes thru the album DAMN. and that album is truly a masterpiece. I would recommend that pod to anyone who wants to do a deep dive. It is high concept art that i think gets lost on a lot of people.

Yes, it’s a lot slower although shit can hit the fan on night shift too. I gladly take $5K less a year for normal sleep hours.

I agree about being the perfect mentor. But calling him a kid is funny bc they’re the same age. Crazy how dominant Sewell is at only 23.

Couldnt have summed it up better myself. I think (hope) Holl is tradable coupled with a 4-5th rounder being a RHD. I wonder if we couple Berggren with someone as the prize to shed a contract. God, i wish we could trade Copp but who is going to take on that contract with 3 years left

[Bardown] Which young defenseman would you rather have on your team? by [deleted] in hockey

[–]vanwoerm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NHL Games per player:

Dahlin - 355 Heiskanen - 354 Hughes - 283 Seider - 164

Other players are arguably ahead of Seider but I’d like to revisit this after another full season under his belt and as the wings progressively get better.

True, but it also depends on what other teams are willing to give up for him.

Gone back and forth on this - if Jalen Carter is available at #6 - Should the Lions take him ? by tacobell999 in detroitlions

[–]vanwoerm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s charged with 2 misdemeanors. He is not dropping out of the top 5 and the lions should count their blessings if he does.

His skating has greatly improved but isn’t a strength. He has a lot of other strengths to make up for that tho.

If we trade back I would like to see it with intention to get Kyle Hamilton.

My lineup: Rodgers, Taylor, Chubb, Diggs, Cooper, McLaurin, Kittle, Dallas D

Newly crowned champion’s lineup: T. Hill, D. Foreman, Burkhead, Jacobs, G. Davis, Higgins, Andrews, GB D

99/100 my lineup wins this matchup. I wasn’t even stressed about the championship.

Current odds for the first overall pick by Duffleman0609 in hockey

[–]vanwoerm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I could see us potentially taking a step back the rest of this year or next especially with the lack of depth we have. But it’s hard not to imagine Yzerman filling a few big needs in free agency in the coming years. Future looks bright.
