Okay the main goal for right now is calmness in public places, such as my job, pet stores, etc. As a puppy we worked a little on settling in the house but not to the degree I'm going to try and take it to now.

There's a video on youtube by kikopup that I'm using as a guide, and will try to routinely keep up with the lessons for 5-7 days before proceeding to public places.

What we worked on today was settling ( laying down, chin on paws, relaxed body etc) and calmly treating for said behavior. I cheated a little by immediately throwing the frisbee when I got home until she was tired.

I wasn't rewarding for this, as I felt she was too fixated for my liking here ( facing/watching me) as she is used to offering me behaviors until getting it right.

This is what I was mainly rewarding and looking for from her. She's used to the game being: chin on paws = treats. But I also didn't want to keep witholding treats and cause frustration. We did this for maybe thirtyish minutes while I "watched" youtube and pretended to do nothing

Here you can see her getting confused why she wasnt getting a treat and offering a different position while focusing her attention on me. Again any advice, input, two cents or what have you that you have to offer I'm all ears

Not asking for handouts, just a few spare seconds of your day. My life is a lot of fucked up things rn whose isn't, and I am so uncomfortable whining about or publicizing any of those things to pretty much anyone, I cant stand sympathy please don't pity me and I dont want handouts but listen

I have been unable to work for a year now and lost all of my savings I mean down to a matter of cents.

Thats all fine worse thigs have happened to better people

But y'all my dog broke her leg and I can't even dream of affording to get her help. She is the sweetest most pure big cuddle bug chunker ever to live and she doesnt deserve this please send my dog all your best healing vibes

I'm not religious at all and I've never felt compelled to """""pray""""" before now but like

If the universe could maybe fuck me up instead please bc I can't handle this idk what to do other than sit here and rub her belly and cry

I just want it to heal okay. I just hope she'll be able to walk again. I want to personally murder whoever says a parents love is unmatchable. I've lost love and lost loved ones a few times, been literally adandoned, abused, hospitalized agaisnt my will, drugged and raped, other mild awfulness, whatever, but above all of that, this right here is heartshattering. I cannot stop crying. I would redo all the trauma I've ever experienced every day for the rest of my life if it would help her. If I could give her my leg you better believe I would miraculously momentarily get over my extreme phobia of hospitals and anything medical related at all. I would cut it off myself. I cant stop crying and I really DONT cry. I just dont. It just never comes out. Sometimes I want to, or I feel like I should be, and really nothing come out. But here I am bunching up my hoodie sleeves because they're all tear-y and disgusting.

Again, despite the needy and pitiful nature of this whole post, not in the market for pity or handouts, and I'm sorry if this is silly to you or you don't believe in energy or anything like that... I already appreciate you so so much for reading this far, but if you read this and can still spare another fraction of a second, please send her some running-through-a-field vibes. Chasing a squirrel. Going on a walk and stopping to sniff every blade of grass. Excited tappies when food is coming. Playing fetch. Playing tug. Happy healthy doggo energy is all I ask from you and it means more to me than anyone can know.

She WILL heal. She'll be running again by the time the snow melts. I'm manifesting it idc. Thats all thanks so much for reading and helping.

❤️Super sweet lover boy❤️ - come meet Barron! Barron is a #happy, #affectionate #Staffiemix with the most #gorgeous eyes. About 2 ½ years old, this handsome boy was so excited to get out of the kennel and go for a walk with our evaluator, and he handled very well. #Barron #loved chasing a toy, but had no problem giving it back, and he was very well behaved at the food bowl. He was relaxed with the male dog he met outside. Barron was a star at his first adoption event last weekend, and we learned that he really loves belly rubs! Please come meet this mellow boy any day of the week. #18885 (at AHS-Newark Branch)
