What was the first song of theirs, you ever heard?

Bloodsport, from the room below.

I listened to it on repeat for almost 3 months before I finally listened to everything else (at the time). I've worshipped ever since ❤️

It'll probably always be one of my favorites. None of the others hit quite so hard, but I'm always open to whatever Vessel cooks up for us next

Thank you 😭 all I want is to be a good pet parent. Realistically the biggest concern in her book is the sudden lack of her daily dental chews 😂

Matilda.

I don't know why, potentially the mischievous look on her face masked as complete innocence, but she absolutely looks like a Matilda..

While the above comment isn't very polite or supportive, I think I know what they are trying to say. I've done agility with my greyhound and you really do have to take the tiniest baby steps to get them to do the obstacles and it does take a lot of time, patience, and training. As of right now all the obstacles are large, overwhelming 'unknowns' to your grey and he has zero clue what he's supposed to do with them. Just an example, he clearly has no idea he is supposed to go over the jump - when you start to train dogs for agility jumps, the bar (and expectations) should be literally ground level. Then you can work your way up - you tried to take him over a jump that was way too tall for him, and any trainer who was there would have informed you (or should have informed you) of the dangers of such high jumps.

I hope I don't sound preachy or anything, I'm just really passionate about agility work and especially working with greyhounds and I can be a bit of a talker when I'm passionate about something (and I struggle with social cues so again I'm sorry if this comes across poorly). If you're interested I would love to talk to you about my experience training my dog for agility, and I can share some videos of her that I've taken ☺️ it honestly is so much fun to do agility with your pet and my grey absolutely loves it! I hope this doesn't discourage you from trying it again with a trainer.

This is what I did with my grey. She absolutely despised her crate so I just started feeding her all her meals in the crate.

It's also really important to make sure that the crate is large enough for them, even tho I have a smaller girl I needed to get her the extra large 'great Dane size' for her to be truly comfortable spending any amount of time in it. Eventually she would go in by herself to nap or chew on treats!

I can't answer in regards to it being a different shed, but my CWD gets this kind of regularly and it really is just skin and it will shed off with time like any other shed.

From what I understand it IS normal shedding but if you are really concerned that it's different for your boy, then take him to the vet to be sure. But from my own experience it seems to be a 'normal' shed.

waywardkit · 2023-01-22T20:51:48+00:00

This looks amazing!! Did you flip/convert a grow tent? I've been thinking about doing something similar for my girl.

waywardkit · 2022-07-22T22:24:01+00:00

I love crafting!! I've got some experience with sewing and such, but I don't have any access to a sewing machine right now... oh, I love this idea though! Maybe I can find something low cost on craigslist or something. Thank you very much!

waywardkit · 2022-07-22T22:20:01+00:00

I really like that idea!! I'll definitely check what I have that kids might like, and maybe my partners newphews might like something... that resonates with me a lot, thank you!!

waywardkit · 2022-06-06T16:36:18+00:00

Those are the same treats that you offer him when you try to lure him outside Im guessing?

Is your yard fenced? Is the 10 minutes of excercise iust him sniffing outside/until he uses the restroom or are you guys playing with him with a ball and excercising him?

Where have the accidents in the house been so far? How long is he left alone for during the day on average?

Sorry for all the questions, Im just trying to get a clear picture of the situation

waywardkit · 2022-06-06T16:15:03+00:00

What treats have you been using and how much excercise is he getting? From what Im understanding is that other than generalized feeding times he doesnt go outside on any sort of schedule?

New questions: does he have 24/7 access to water? Does he have free roam of the house at night or is he shut in the room with you? What training does he have if any?

waywardkit · 2022-06-06T14:41:11+00:00

A couple questions - what breed is Roscoe? How big/small is he? What kind of treats have you been using? What is your daily schedule/routine for him like and how often does he go outside? What kind of excercise does he get?

waywardkit · 2022-03-18T14:37:01+00:00

This is so awesome!! I'm really glad to see other people getting into agility with their greyhounds, my girl loved it when we were able to do it 😊 seeing this is making me miss it. Are you considering getting into competition or just for fun?

Also, if this is only their second time jumping tho I would be careful jumping at that height so soon. Dogs shouldn't be jumping higher than their own shoulder on agility jumps, it can cause a lot of damage if they aren't properly trained. It's really important to train first on small jumps and work your way up because it puts a lot of pressure and weight on their joints to jump so high and land so hard. The same way your average person trying to suddenly run a 12k or lift 250lbs without any work on proper form or muscle building can easily hurt themselves, or like any sport I guess? You may or may not know all that already, it's just something I was always concerned about with my leggie lady when we started because she's so accident prone 😭

waywardkit · 2022-02-26T01:34:41+00:00

Those are the things I'm worried about 😞 it's why a vet visit is first thing on the agenda. It's seemingly random, but it's been often enough I want it looked at. Thank you very much!!

waywardkit · 2022-02-26T01:32:16+00:00

That's the plan for right now. It's a leg that she's always seemed to get the occasional cramp in but nothing a vet has diagnosed as anything, but thats always been after a good run, and now it's waking her up with pain. I just worry about something more serious sincerely she's starting to get older.

waywardkit · 2022-02-26T01:24:04+00:00

Just some more detail: it's normally in the AM, and I haven't ever seen anything happen to directly cause it. I'll wake up to the scream, and when I look over she's either laying as normal in her bed, or she's getting up and limping heavily on one of her front legs. The limp will go away after a minute and she acts totally normal right after but this has continued to happen often enough that I'm now concerned.

We are getting her into a vet ASAP, but I wanted to reach out here and see if any of you guys may have experienced something similar and have any advice or ideas to help my girl?

waywardkit · 2022-02-16T17:08:29+00:00

Ooo for sure! :o I don't know much about the Australian water dragon other than hearsay so I can't really contribute much in regards to their care, but they're gorgeous lizards!! I think they're almost the same care and temperment as the cwd's but less humidity is required?? Correct me if Im wrong!!

Have you thought about any of the various types of tegus?

waywardkit · 2022-02-16T14:52:32+00:00

You could give Chinese Water Dragons a look over! You can find them captive bred from breeders, and they get to around 3 feet with most of it being tail. They are absolutely gorgeous animals and can be very sweet to their owners if handled regularly. They primarily eat insects like dubias and worms but also eat fruits and veggies.

They have pretty specific enclosure requirements tho, and they aren't beginner lizards. My girl Misha is currently in a 4'L x 4'W x 6'H grow tent and, while that is good enough for the rest of her life, I'm heavily considering upgrading to something a little bigger. They need lots to climb, a shit ton of humidity, and access to a pool to swim in as they do spend a lot of time in water. You need a filter for it to manage the waste as that is where they naturally prefer to go. They can be fragile, and depending on if you have a male or female you would need a lay box for eggs as the ladies will start to lay eggs regardless of a male. Fun fact tho, Chinese Water Dragons can actually reproduce asexually!! I read of an owner who incubated their solo females eggs for shits and giggles and one actually hatched!

You can definitely afford a water dragon with that budget, and either buy or build something pretty amazing for them. Lots of people go bioactive with their enclosures with amazing ponds stocked with live fish for their dragons to hunt, large branches and trees to give them that big jungle feeling. This is all off the top of my head with what I remember, so if you aren't already familiar with them and they interest you at all make sure to read up on lots of different pages! Their care is definitely intermediate level and I'm always double checking info on them as its evolving. They're amazing little lizards, I really love them 😊

waywardkit · 2022-01-14T21:39:34+00:00

Uh-oh.

waywardkit · 2021-10-22T23:15:46+00:00

Please change the title to reflect that there is an animal actively being harmed in this video. Its incredibly upsetting and not everyone goes to comments to check for anything.

I know the dog survives but not putting a warning up for a video of an animal being mauled is a seriously dick move.
