I have several things on Craig's list. One is a free table. I had tons of emails and randomly picked one. Turns out my table will be used as a sewing table to make costumes for a CIRCUS!!! I am so excited I even told the lady I would deliver. Now I feel like a little part of me will be in the circus.

Great news! You have answers and nothing invasive like surgery needs to happen. Yay!

Good update.... Meds are working and training is going better. not only do they help with leaving, but helps with training and dog park. Just takes enough edge off him. Today we went the the park twice and I was so proud that he ventured into a large group, played nicely and could tell which dogs wo...

Sorry it did not work out. Keep looking, the right horse and owner are out there!

I am the rider in this exact situation. My mare is retired, way early, from injury. Another boarder is hurt and has her horse in two day a week training. He's green but very willing and fun. I started riding once a week and it's now two to three days with owner asking often when I can ride next! Own...

Oh great story. You never found out why she had for 18 days and sold so cheap? I bet you have come up within lots of stories!!

Sounds like a fun project and I look forward to your updates. Pictures are required!

Congrats!!! So cute

I second the meditation and music. I have lots more free time then normal (no brain injury though). I have had to learn how to address some anxiety over not having 12 hours a day of work. Meditation and music have been great. Oh and singing! I learned at 38 that I love to sing when no one is listeni...

Magnesium is a great idea! Dog is doing better with meds. Will continue this week with meds, lots of exercise, and training. This weekend will try to reduce meds and see if training sticks. He's not knocked out on meds, but the edge is taken off and I can leave him. Today for 4 hours! Trick is wethe...

I have a soaking tub, no jets, and love it! No help on the jet tubs but totally understand why you want a tub over walk in.

Haha! My first laugh of the day. I used to work in an apparel company and was made fun of a lot. I guess I took some chances and they didn't all turn out. My favorite was the day I wore a long black skirt, plain top and because I had just walked in was wearing brown hiking boots (was about to change...

Can you post pictures?

I am hesitant on the gental leader as they are designed for walking and not leaving the dog alone. This dog will chew and can get out of a harness left alone. I did get a thunder shirt, which helped with some training, especially walking and leash manors but not on anxiety.

Nope, I am addicted to my take and bake pizza places!

Jean - just sending you jingles. I hope you are able to place all horses in homes you are comfortable with. Sending you and BF strength and healing thoughts.

Wow, 14 years. He's turned into a handsom young man. You can see how proud you are of him, and all the love between you in that picture.

So glad you are ok!

At least timing is right, you should be able to make a good Halloween costume out of that!

Jingles for speedy recovery.

I hope for your sake the drugs work (hopefully it can stop his mind from spinning so he can actually associate being left alone with pleasant things instead of revving himself up until he's unreachable). But if it doesn't work like you need it to and you need to bring him back, I hope you won't be ...

After talking to shelter trainer, I have an appointment with a vet to try drugs. Trainer said I was doing all the right things, it's just time time and more time. So we'll try drugs and if not change then he'll go back. He's a super cool dog and will end up in a good home, one that can deal worth hi...

I still say look at the crate training PDF I linked. It will take time and investigate clicker training, please!! He needs to learn calm behavior. Drugs might help while getting over the hump, find a treat that he likes, chicken, cheese, p-nut butter, steak, hot dogs something he likes not just buy...

Thank you for advice... It's helpful to me, still struggling. Thunder shirt - helps calm him in high stress situation, like when he is over excited on a walk. But not a huge difference with the separation anxiety. Crate - easiest dog to crate train, last two nights slept in crate with door open. Ton...

Getting a thunder shirt to try - thank you had not thought of that. Today is slightly better, leaving 10 minutes at a time and then coming back. He's still not happy, but less destruction. Just don't know what to do, haven't left him more then two hours, I can't always be around. Otherwise he's smar...

I got a dog on Friday, a bit spur of the moment. Stopped at the local shelter on Thursday, meet two dogs and went back and took one on Friday. He's 10 months, maybe a bit younger. Smaller, 40 lb and typical high energy puppy. At shelter he showed many good things - playful with other dogs through de...

Welcome!

Thank you! This is my fav! Last time I did I received more from this board then family and friends. And some people go way out on pictures. I need your my game this year!

I'm in this year!

Depends....I was in a bad car accident. About 13 years later I found the accident report with pictures while doing a deep clean of all my things. It was super hard to read at first, stirred up a lot of old emotions. Seeing pictures of the vehicle I realized how fortunate I am to have lived. But in t...

Gone, very sad. Glad to season any familiar friends here.

Lovely mares!
