    My pup loves the awful weather and it's making me hate him

    @iquietguy I got him these after trying a few that didn't work out. He seems to like them, though he kicks one off every time and I have to put it back on. Not quite sure why. But they seem to fit him okay, don't cut off his circulation (like others I have tried), and he can walk and jump around...

    My advice and reflections on being a single person raising a gigantic puppy in a small apartment during a pandemic

    @solomon1978 I use GoodPup. A friend referred me (happy to refer you for a free week). I've only been using it for 6 weeks, before that I was learning from a combo of articles and Youtube videos.

    My pup loves the awful weather and it's making me hate him

    @christianbooks He absolutely is. He's a little shit, but the cutest little shit in the world.

    My advice and reflections on being a single person raising a gigantic puppy in a small apartment during a pandemic

    @emnonymous In all seriousness, if my puppy doesn't like you or you can't handle my puppy being a puppy, it's an immediate deal breaker. God willing, my puppy is in my life for the next ~15 years, and you just won't be. A woman that I matched/was chatting with on Tinder said she was allergic...

    My advice and reflections on being a single person raising a gigantic puppy in a small apartment during a pandemic

    @deojames A woman I was talking to suggested we go on a walking date with her dogs. I warned her that Summer is a puppy and gets jumpy and is unpredictable, she said that's fine, her dog loves other dogs. Uhhh turns out that's not the case, and she didn't mention that her dog had joint issues...

    My advice and reflections on being a single person raising a gigantic puppy in a small apartment during a pandemic

    Hello all, My pup Summer is turning 1 soon, so I wanted to share some stuff I've learned and, in some cases, that I wish I had known when I first got him. Of course these are only my personal reflections, I am not a licensed trainer or animal care professional. First some general puppy things...

    My pup loves the awful weather and it's making me hate him

    @katie_nyc I posted the link somewhere in this thread. So far, so good. But I really got them for snow/ice so haven't got a chance to test that yet.

    My pup loves the awful weather and it's making me hate him

    @imagebeastmarkbeast He actually doesn't mind it. That's not a warm coat, it's just a raincoat, so it just velcros around his waist and has bands around his legs. Getting the boots on is more of an adventure, quite a few bites but he's mostly okay with it once I get one on.

    My pup loves the awful weather and it's making me hate him

    As I write this, it's 7:45am in New York, it's 40 degrees out with 20mph wind and it's been raining for about 30 straight hours. And my pup really wants to go play outside. I took him out at about 6:30 this morning for a potty break, as is our standard morning routine to buy me time for...

    Wow, I have a dog!

    @katewow This happens to me almost daily. I've wanted a dog forever and had never been in a position to get one. I finally made the leap in May and have watched him grow from fat little puppy into a giant happy wolf-like ball of sweetness, and I still just look at him sometimes like "wow you're...
