#pulling on leash training

Almost there!

Mmm, I do think there is a situation in which Aaravos both possesses Callum while also giving Callum the appearance of free will. An instance in which Callum passively allows himself to be guided, free of resistance.

It’s not like Callum doesn’t not want to do this thing that he is suddenly doing, perhaps something seemingly harmless. Later Callum might even recall it as his action alone? He would be wrong in thinking that, but the idea haunts him none the less.

Why did my neighbors not only get a new puppy when they had to rehome the last dog they got bc it didn't get along with their first one (and no dog should be housed with it, it's got a bite history on both people and other dogs) (including mine) (because they let it outside unleashed) but they're ALSO. Letting this puppy outside unleashed and letting it freely run into my yard (I have a very big dog) (they are fully aware he is made nervous by other dogs) (even if it is currently a puppy and *I* know Renfield likely wouldn't respond to it the same as he does their other dog, very crucially, They Don't Know That)

sometimes I only have the mental capacity to go for a walk, so that’s what we did today

[quenthel]

god... our doggy is a teen rn and he needs to be trained bc he keeps misbehaving and biting at my dad and i while my mom is around (like he is protecting her) and its making me so anxious...

personally I don't have a strong opinion on ecollar use but @ my rich client it's fucking insane to talk about introducing an ecollar to ur 4 month old parvo survivor doodle when she's just doing extremely normal puppy behaviors. what the fuck.

If I can give you guys one tip. Do not buy an active sporting dog if you have no intention of providing them with the exercise they need. They will ruin your house and be huge problems

Re: your last post... Cat supremacy!! 🙏 but you're so right why are dog people like.. That sometimes 💀

UGH I KNOW and like listen i LOVE animals, i totally get the urge to treat your dog like hes a special little guy and he is your special little guy! but like that doesnt extend to everyone in the world you know... when people bring their dogs to walmart im just like dude really?? or when dog owners let their dogs roam around without a leash like UMM theyre still animals and theyre still capable of harming other people dude... idk i just want people to be responsible dog owners you know?? i love dogs, thats why i want u guys to treat your dogs with the respect they deserve by training them responsibly and keeping them from causing harm to themselves and others yeah <3 SORRY that was such a long rant idk where this all came from apparently i have really strong views about this ok bye ily!

The number of strangers who give unsolicited advice about how to train my dog…

[rustpuppy]

dogsitting OVER. finally free

they were very sweet but watching two energetic + clingy medium sized dogs really drives home for me how much i prefer small dogs

plus. a poorly behaved small dog is annoying but a poorly behaved medium dog is a menace 💀

[chaos-coming]

The train schedule sucks today and im gonna have to miss the thing i wanted to go to bc the last train leaves too early

It would make taking chewby for walks much easier

Task force 141 reacting to their very pregnant wife still trying to clean, cook etc

This turned more into ‘Task force 141 preventing their very pregnant wife from trying to clean, cook, etc’ lmaooooo I hope that's alright

Price

HA! Good one!

No seriously, it's actually hilarious that you think you'd do anything for yourself when your hubby's around

That man has been waiting on you hand and foot since you first got together. So now that you're pregnant and you think he'd let you so much as lift a finger? You must have a serious case of pregnancy brain, sweetheart

Price is doing all the cooking, the cleaning, the running errands, etc. throughout the entirety of your pregnancy (and at least the first several months postpartum)

He's kept you practically bed bound these last few months to the point where you think there's a perfect indent of your body molded into the mattress

Seven months in, he's suddenly called away to a quick mission halfway across the globe, and you think finally you'll get some of your autonomy back...

Well, think again because who should show up at your door the next morning than your mother-in-law herself, ready to pick up where her son left off

She came at the behest of your husband, of course, and was armed with a detailed set of care instructions

What does your husband think you are? Some sort of one-of-a-kind, priceless artifact that needs special handling? (Actually that's exactly what you are. Price-less… I'll see myself out 🚶🏻‍♀️)

Ghost

When it comes to having some semblance of independence during your pregnancy, Ghost will give you a bit of a longer leash than Price, but only just so

You’re going for a walk around the neighborhood? Hold on, let him grab his coat to join you. Or you're going into the backyard to tend the garden? He'll pull the weeds while you water the plants

But when it comes to letting you do certain things, there are some hard nos that he will absolutely not budge on

You try to use a stepladder to reach the top of the cupboard? Stop! You'll break your neck! You try to pick up anything heavier than 10 pounds? Stop! Give it here! You try to drive?... Don't even fuckin' think about it, precious.

The farther along your pregnancy progresses, the better he gets at predicting (and intercepting) your next move

You were gonna do laundry today? Well, wouldn't you know, he's already got a load going in the washer. You were about to make dinner? Well shucks, he just ordered takeaway from that Greek place you love

His ability to read your mind is honestly impressive once you get past how damn annoying you find it. Just because you're pregnant doesn't mean you're incapable of fending for yourself, and you're tired of him acting as if otherwise

But really, you can never get mad at anything he does for you. After all, what kind of a husband would he be if he didn't take care of his missus and your little one?

Soap

If you take Ghost’s cautiousness, mix it with Price’s thoroughness, and crank it up to an 11, you get Soap

From the moment he found out you were pregnant, he put your house into full lockdown mode, stopping just short of booby trapping the front door in case you got any funny ideas

You want some fresh air? Just open a window. You want to go for a walk and stretch your legs? Just take a few turns about the living room like you're some Austenian heroine

Don't let him catch you doing any kind of physical labor, because so help him Jesus he will grab a spray bottle and use it like you're a feral alleycat he's trying to house-train (he wouldn't really... but don't test him)

You try to unload the dishwasher? Ehrr! Wrong move. You try to remake the bed? Ehrr! Nice try. You try to mop up your own mess. Ehrr! Enough already. You try to– OCH, WOULD YE BLOODY SIT DOWN, WOMAN?!

For nine long months during his requested leave from work, your husband is attached to you like some kind of loving, smothering barnacle

But doesn't he miss his job, or the lads for that matter? What if the world needs saving? What will they do without him?

Well, (in his exact words) fuck the rest of the world! You're his world, bonnie, and he'll give you everything you could ever wish for and then some

Gaz

By far, you have the most independence with Gaz than you would with any of the other three men… at least, at the beginning of your pregnancy, that is

Once you get to around five or six months he becomes just as helicopter-y as all the others; he's just ever so slightly more bearable, perhaps

There's lots of peeking his head around the corner to check on you throughout the day or appearing seemingly out of thin air whenever you're doing something he'd rather you wouldn't

You've lost count of the number of times you've been in the middle of cooking or hanging up the laundry or whatever and his hand has suddenly appeared out of nowhere, gently taking the object from you before directing you to sit and rest

And like, look. He knows you can handle yourself. He knows you could conquer the whole world if you wanted to. That's one of the things he loves about you the most

But seeing you like this – so fragile, so vulnerable, so beautiful and soft and pregnant with his child; his child – it just… It makes him…

He just needs to do these things for you, alright, love? Just let him take care of you, please? Would you let him do that?

You already have so much you have to carry. Let him ease some of the burden off your shoulders. Let him do these small things for you because they don't even compare to all that you're doing for him 🥲
