Mouthy dog

Does anyone have tips for stopping mouthing?
I have tried redirection, toys in mouth, and throwing treats on the ground…
Sometimes I have to care for his hygiene, like cleaning his ears and I end up bruised and hurt. Anytime I go to touch him this happens. He’s only 8 months.

Any tips or experiences would be amazing. I’m at a loss and sometimes regret getting him because I don’t feel safe

Lexus is250 misfiring and transmission codes

I’m having some problems with my 2008 Lexus IS 250 essentially it has been jerking when going up in rpm and stalling out in reverse on occasion .
It also has a ghost code that is coming and going. I managed to catch it one day and it was P 2757. I immediately took my car to a transmission shop where they did a free evaluation and they said that my transmission is fine and that I am having a lot of misfires on my car in multiple cylinders. I’ve been told that I need to replace my spark plugs and coils

I have a friend that is experienced and willing to change my spark plugs and coils for a good price, but I am just wanting to get another opinion as to if this will fix the problem. I was told that the code that I’m receiving is likely a false code due to the misfiring.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

No way she’s ready for tour.

her legs…..I’m genuinely confused as to how people continue saying she hasn’t lost any weight and is just as healthy as SWT.
I feel like this is not going to go well for her at all and her body will force her to end the tour.

She’s likely trying to gain muscle without proper nutrition, recipe for disaster. Worst case she collapses on stage.

Overly mouthy 8 month old pup

I have hit my limit with my dog and I am so sad. He is 8 months old and so sweet in certain moments, but his mouthiness, jumping and fearfulness has made it extremely hard to enjoy being around him.

The mouthiness/biting has become extreme to the point that I cannot handle him properly most times. And if I do manage to throw a treat down or distract him with a toy in his mouth, he’ll drop whatever it is and then turn and bite me. Even after long walks, playing for an hour, he will do it.
Earlier he even jumped off the bed while biting my wrist and wouldn’t respond to anything.

I always keep a leash on him for these reasons, so I can grab him before he hurts my other dog or my mom. But I am just at a loss. My local trainer said they’d help me for $2,400. I can’t afford that.

And if it’s not jumping or biting, he is scared of any noise or movement outside of our house (does well in public though) so I am often pulled to the ground since he is almost my size (I am a small lady).

Has anyone been through this? I’m losing hope and more frustrated and scared to be around him than not. I’m not sure how I’m not supposed to be scared of him when I know any interaction will give me a bruise and pain.

P2757 - 08 Lexus is250

My 2008 IS250 is throwing code P2757 and I'm stressed. It stalls sometimes when I shift from Drive to Reverse once it's warmed up (backing up in parking lots or roads). It also jerks or hesitates if I try to accelerate fast.

The weird part is that it sometimes runs better with a full tank of gas, but the stalling gets worse when the tank is low.

Does this sound like I just need new solenoids or is the whole transmission shot? I’m a student and can’t afford a full $5k replacement, so I’m hoping to just fix the solenoids and get through the year.

Any advice? I’m taking it to a transmission specialist on Friday and don’t want to go in blind.
