My girl turns 11 today! She seems pretty strong and healthy but our boy Django passed in November and he was only 10 years old so I treasure every minute with her. We did a birthday photo shoot! Please send her some love❤️

Long lost relatives?

Hi there! I may be in the wrong spot but I was wondering if anyone knew or was already down a rabbit hole of pedigrees but I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction of finding my little girls long lost relatives, I know she has a pedigree but her papers are in Russian, and adopted from an older gentleman who couldn't care for her anymore so her history is a little fuzzy, we *think* her father is "color me badd devil anise" and her mother is "Beatrice" my Layla was born March 2022 but thats all we can find on our own, if anyone has any pointers, or experience in finding long lost relatives feel free to reach out! Thank you very much and I hope everyone has a wonderful day! :)

Anyone else have an OEB that demands car rides?

I’ve created a monster! When my big boy passed away last summer I started taking Tessie in the car with me for quick trips more often. I used to take them both together to get pup cups but now she goes with me most places. If she sees me grab my shoes she goes to the door. She grunts if I don’t put the windows down. She paws at people walking by when we are parked, begging for their attention. If someone does ask to pet her, she paws at them to continue. She is an absolute ham.

She starts making licking sounds when she sees we are at Starbucks. She loves the car line at the school when we wait for our kid to come out. All that potential attention walking past. It’s like she’s fishing and waiting for one of them to take the bait. My human child has learned to start bringing friends to satisfy Tessie’s demands. My backseat looks like a hair bomb went off.

Yelled at my puppy now she growls at me

Okay so to begin with, I’ve had her for two weeks tomorrow. And tomorrow she turns 10 weeks.

This is an olde english bulldog so she growls alot and that’s not concerning since I learned that she isn’t aggressive BUT, today has been different.

So she needs to nap all the time, if she does not she goes crazy. Bites really hard on your feet etc. the problem here is that she just doesn’t take a nap on her own initiative so I have to hold her and be like “shh shh” until she falls asleep, and that has been our routine everyday these two weeks, every nap. I understand that I soon won’t be able to do it as she will become bigger but for now that has helped alot.

So what happened today? She just wouldn’t sleep, she ran around biting me, didn’t let me eat because of barking and biting. I lost it, so I moved her bed to her little playpen (crates are NOT legal here) and she cried and cried, everytime she went off the bed i picked her up and put her on the bed, several times and yelled NO! NO! I feel like an asshole but I just lost it.

Since that, she growls when I am on my way to pick her up, and she bites. She literally growls and bites. This is completely different from her play bites (which also hurt but they aren’t aggressive).

The thing here is that I HAVE TO be able to pick her up since I live on the third floor and she just can’t walk those steps yet.

So again, yes I feel like a complete asshole, I’ve terrified her and I feel like I have broken her trust. I’ve been spiraling the last 4 hours and just been googling and reading reddit posts about similar stuff.

What I have tried is giving her treats and stuff when picking her up sometimes it has worked, sometimes not. Right now she is sleeping next to me on the couch because I was finally able to hold her and make her nap. But I honestly I’m scared I have fucked up, or fucked her up. She trusted me and she only has me, and I did this to her.

Today is the first day I feel like crying. These two weeks have been tough, but today was just too much and I feel horrible.

Does anyone have any good advice or just any kind words?

OEB puppy bites hard…

… and nothing helps.

So my 9, soon to be 10, week old oeb puppy bites so freaking hard, she latches onto my clothes and especially my feet. I have literally bruises and alooot of scratches on my feet, arms and hands. She’s sweet overall, especially when she sleeps lol, but honestly these bites are nothing to joke about.

I’ve been around puppies and yes, most of them bite but this… this is different. It hurts so much and I’ve tried everything. Redirecting with toys, she doesn’t care. Yelled “ouch” or yelped, she doesn’t care. Timeouts and reverse timeouts, she doesn’t care. Also crates are illegal in my country which means i can’t get away from her like that. And it’s pretty hard to get away from the situation when she literally latches onto your foot. Tried to yell “NO”, she doesn’t care. Besides that I enforce naps.

Picture of the lil demon.

Please send help 😭
