    @imagebeastmarkbeast Same! We use them for training and to let her just self-soothe.

    @pieman :) It definitely doesn't have to! We waited until we had enough money to have a puppy so that we could have fun and not worry! Best decision ever!!

    @jayadams81 Thanks for your comment! We thought really long and hard years ago about whether or not to get a puppy, and decided not to because I WANT to be able to afford ANYTHING that I want for her. She is so incredibly smart, it is so important to work with her, provide her with stimulation...

    @xianin The spending has definitely died down! I think at this point we have a good toy rotation, we have dry food for the rest of the year...I realize at this second I didn't include that in the post. So now it will just be treats and the new harness at some point! What other grooming...

    @nonvincitur We groom her for now, she loves brushies! We trim her butt up, clean her ears and trim the toeses. As for boarding, we have my parents! That's really smart on the dog toys! We've experimented with treats, and we will continue to do so!

    @godismyprovider We're on week two and she is consistently using "outside", "snack" (for I need food OR the cat is eating my food!), "ball" when she wants fetch, "belly rub" and "butt" for scratches, "play " for tug-of-war, "brushies" for brushies, "puzzle" for when her puzzle is out of food...

    @ambrose94 https://fluent.pet/collections/kits/products/they-can-talk These are the ones we bought. Yes, I thought to myself early on that it was unfair that I could ask so much of her, but she didn't have the same ability of me! I researched and found that these existed. We're still learning...

    @ambrose94 Good morning! She's an Aussie-Golden Retriever mix. We play with everything! Part of training is that she has a shelf of toys and we're teaching her to press buttons for certain categories! So she can choose from balls, stuffies, puzzles, tug, frisbees, or kong-type toys!

    @imagebeastmarkbeast The most expensive I would say have been the herding balls and kongs! She doesn't really like kongs, so we stopped investing in them. She has a lot of stimulation because my husband works from home and needs to not be driven nuts while he's working. She spends hours doing...

    @monstershouter It has been wonderful! So much destruction and love at the same time!
