Looking for Ding Gu Da Fang, aka Huang Shan Long Jing, in Zhu Pu.

Last Spring I took a trip to Zhu Pu to look for Da Fang.

Da Fang is the original pan fried green tea. I knew it was from Huang Shan but never went to look for its original home until last spring.

Zhu Pu was a beautiful mountain village. Huang Shan, in my opinion, is very under rated for its beauty. After talking to a few makers I spent the night with one watching him make tea.

Interesting side note, he calls his tea Huang Shan Long Jing and says that only 100% hand made tea can be called Ding Gu Da Fang.

In the Span of Four Years my Whippet Went from Being Kept Outside to Fully Understanding How a Blanket and Pillow Works

I bought Izzy from a guy who had at least six dogs and was trying to use them for hunting. While I dont think he abused her, she probably spent most of her time chained up outside in less than comfortable conditions.

When I first got her, she was extremely timid and was very nervous indoors. I would take her to the bar and she stay under my chair the whole time.

Today she is a magical fairy who prances about, a professional skiddadler. She is confident enough to go anywhere and greet anyone.

You were judged after death on good you were to dogs.

There is a historian on youtube who focuses on the relationships between dog and man in ancient times. He mentions that in some areas of the aztec empire there was a belief that when you died a dog would guide you to the afterlife but only if you were good to dogs.

Ive found plenty of mentions about the guiding part but i cant find anything about being judged on if you were good to dogs.
Does anyone know a source that can confirm this

Dogs in Ningbo?

I just interviewed for a school in Ningbo that seems great, but Im worried about raising dogs in ningbo.

I have three dogs, two of them are illegal breeds (rottweiler and american staffy). I have a few questions about ningbo.

Is it dog friendly? Are there alot of parks to walk dogs? (on leash of course). Is there an outer area of Ningbo that is less densely populated? How strict are dog laws? do you often see big dogs or will police crack down on them pretty quickly?

Edit:
I am already in China. Ive had the rotty for 6 years and the staffy for 4. Ive lived in areas such as Suzhou and Yangzhou. In those areas Ive lived outside the city center. While the police have been called, they had talked to my neighbors and met the dogs and then were basically like "keep them on leash and avoid busy places".

Inventory Being a weight instead of individual items

I sell tea on my site, and I offer a few different sizes of packaging (10g, 30g, 50g). The problem is that I have to set my inventory for each size. This causes a number of problems as its not a clear reflection of what I have in stock.

Is there a way I can set my inventory as something like 4 lbs and have each option take away from that 4 lbs.

Dog owners and trainers often associate aggression with fear, which is not always the case. Aggression can be fueled by reward-seeking behaviors.

While the above study looks at mice and no study has yet been done on specifically dogs, another study found dopamine to be a factor in aggressive pit bulls. Dopamine, as we know, is a pleasure-seeking neurotransmitter/hormone.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10886264/

Personally, I find the topic of aggression very interesting, and I think the more we understand it, the better we can address it in our dogs.
