What's "fun" for MC dogs (hunting type dogs)?

This is our dog, she is 60% MC, 20% APBT, and the rest is hound (coonhound, treeing walker). She is a great hunter (squirrel, bunnies, chipmunks). She has started to do zoomies with us, she likes walks. But I can't figure out what is FUN for hunting dogs. I've had herding breeds who loved going on walks where they would look at you adoringly and 'protect' you, a spitz (very into playtime like tug, catching a bouncing ball), terriers who love the thrill of the hunt (even with fake prey like squeaky toys), and a scent hound who loved to track.

But this dog ... Likes to walk but couldn't care less who is at the other end of the leash. Zero interest in plush toys, or a ball, or a frisbee. I am thinking there must be some form of entertainment I am not aware of - something hunting breeds love to do. She is my first hunting dog (or dog of hunting lineage). We only have so many bunnies and chipmunks in the yard to act as 'playmates'.

Dry egg whites (bag) - what can they be used for?

Expecting to make gingerbread houses, I bought a bag of egg whites from Amzon. They arrived late and were unreturnable because it's food. I get that.

But I have this unopened bag of egg whites and I am wondering... Are they really something I can substitute for actual eggs in a recipe? I do not need to make meringue (I do not want to make it, either). Can they be used in fresh pasta? As a dredge for breaded eggplant? In muffin or cake recipes? I'm hoping there's some great food where using powdered egg whites makes preparation 100x simpler - what do they enable me to do better/easier?

Eggs are expensive and I don't like to waste food, I'm just not sure what to do with them (now that I don't need royal icing for gingerbread houses).

What are the ways to figure out if a foreclosure is a waste of time (a bank that is going to jerk buyers around for at least 6 months before realizing they won't get their dream price) or possibly worth one's time?

A house recently hit the market marked "foreclosure" and I, being nosey, started looking up the history on it. Wow, it's ugly (mortgage balance ballooned to 2x purchase of the home, was modified several times and recast to 40 years with a lot of 'principal forebearance'). And it's been dragging on for almost 20 years of this.

Normally I'd watch the dumpster fire from a safe distance. But it has some characteristics that are hard to find - dead end street + single story + proximity to coastline. So I'm wondering if there's a way to figure out if the bank here is serious about selling and removing the current residents? The 'listing agent' is auction dot com which doesn't get great reviews.
