Dog Shaming

1/11/2013

1. In the past week, I have made over five dozen vanilla cupcakes in the hunt for the perfect high-altitude vanilla cupcake. The winner was the first recipe I printed but the last recipe I tried. Of course. I should have known!

2. Dog shaming. Have you seen it? It's perfection. My lab's picture would say I like to eat snow and then I puke a bucket-sized amount because my old stomach can't handle the temperature difference anymore. But I will eat snow every time I see it because I don't have to clean it up. Ha! (punk)

3. My spaniel's picture would say I fart loudly when I jump on furniture or go up stairs. It propels me. (weirdest dog ever)

4. My husband's would say...oh wait. Nevermind. The dogs are cute though. Thank God they have that going for them.

5. You know how I've been whining about setting up my new computer and Windows 8? Well, I'll try to refrain when I have to do it all. over. again. The screen has these red marks on it that apparently multiply daily (hourly?? every minute??) and eventually my screen will be full of them and I won't be able to see anything else. Awesome. So I'm getting a new computer and have to set everything up again.

6. In other news, I'm going to invest in a winery because I think I need to start drinking a lot more. So that I don't whine as much.

7. Oh and talk about a cluster when I went in to a big box store (that I won't name but starts with a B and ends with est Buy) to get this figured out. The verdict? I had to BUY a new computer so that I wasn't without a computer for a week. When I asked if they could transfer all my stuff over to the new computer, they said they charged $80 for that service. Oh geez...hold me back! It's great that I can be nice on the outside and be super sarcastic and mean on the inside and no one knows. I think. Hopefully my face doesn't give me away.

8. I went for my first run this week since Thanksgiving, and I didn't pass out. Hooray! I don't, however, have any plans for running again anytime soon.

9. I hate these "prove you're not a spammer" things with a passion. Seriously. Passionate hatred. Especially when I get it wrong and then I have to do it again.

10. Over Christmas break we watched a comedy show with the brilliant comics Jeff Foxworthy, Bill Engvall, and Larry the Cable Guy. This bit on Jeff Foxworthy's colonoscopy is pretty. dang. funny. It gets really good around 2 minutes if you don't want to watch/listen to the whole thing. Pretty high-quality video, which I think could be ordered to be taken down in mere minutes, so if it doesn't work search for Jeff Foxworthy colonoscopy. It's totally worth it, especially if you've had one or know anyone who's had one.

11. Pray for my appendages tomorrow as I'm sitting in 15 degree weather for 4 hours. I'm worried about my toes. But....Go Broncos!

12. Champ Bailey called the house today to remind us to wear orange to the game tomorrow. Sorry, Champ, but I don't have an orange coat. I'm going for warmth, not color. I'll be loud for ya though!

Possibly the most ignored and understated tip is your pet may need sunscreen just as much as you! Most light haired pets and those with very short haircuts need skin protection against the suns harmful rays. Human labeled sunscreen may not be right for your pet

Understand that you're important to your dog. Your presence can give your dog the confidence to explore new things, and your dog will look to you for information when presented with a new or stressful item.

By being a calm and reassuring presence, you can help your dog feel safe and secure in new situations. This can encourage your dog to explore their surroundings and engage with new experiences. Additionally, your dog may also look to you for cues on how to react to certain stimuli, such as other dogs or people.

Dogs are popularly kept as pets. They possess sharp teeth that enable them to consume flesh with ease. A dog's physical features include four legs, two ears, two eyes, a tail, a mouth, and a nose. This intelligent animal is capable of catching thieves and is often trained for that purpose. With their ability to run at high speeds, bark loudly, and confront strangers, dogs serve as valuable protectors.

Although boiled food with no oil content and minimal spices may be appropriate for certain dogs with particular dietary needs, it may not be the best or only option for all dogs. To keep your beloved pet healthy and happy, it is essential to maintain a well-balanced and varied diet in consultation with a veterinarian.

People can justify punishing after the fact when they think their pets are guilty and have moral sense. A act must promptly (within 3 seconds) be followed by its consequences, whether positive or negative, for learning to take place, according to the fundamental principles of animal learning. The attempt to link previous conduct with future punishment by having the dog see his "mess" (whatever that may be) is not only ineffective in stopping the undesirable behavior, but it frequently results in conditioned anxieties and aversions (dogs who stop greeting their owners at the door).

The allure of having a pet lies not just in the tangible benefits but also in the intangible emotions they evoke. They teach us valuable lessons about responsibility, empathy, and compassion. Caring for a pet requires dedication, patience, and understanding their needs, which in turn fosters a sense of accountability and nurtures a profound sense of empathy within us. Their mere existence teaches us to cherish the simple joys of life, finding delight in the smallest of moments, whether it's a playful romp in the park or a quiet evening cuddled up together.

This is such a smart and modern solution for pet owners! The convenience of digital door and window locks combined with the ability to control them remotely is a real game changer. I especially love the idea of a smart doggy door – it gives pets freedom while ensuring their safety. It's great for people who work long hours and still want their pets to stay comfortable and secure at home.
