  2. I'm really happy with the way this story is turning out, and I think it's great that this dog has a lovely new home with a good job to keep her occupied. ETA: - your first training session looks super! I am really enjoying reading all of this, and I hope my comment below won't stop you from sharing. I promise I'm just trying to be helpful to the community at large, when thinking about bringing dogs to the fort. However, I do want to comment on the issue of separation anxiety in this dog. The reason the dog acted out at the Fort, was not because she thought she was alpha of h

  3. To make it simple, You can use an adapter to get 30 amps to your unit but you just have to manage a few things. The second AC will have to be turned off. You should also watch what you use when the AC is on like your hair dryer and the microwave. Everything else like the TV, lights, refrigerator and hot water heater should work just fine with the AC on. I have not found any problems with the electric at the fort but most of the problems in other camp grounds comes from low voltage. If you can't afford a surge protector right way I suggest you get a $12 voltage meter at home depot for chea

  5. I love this wording The experiment started back in November as a test to begin introducing more paid add-ons for the resort’s wealthier guests, but many regulars found the cabanas to be eyesores at best (and a crass way to taint the futuristic themed area’s otherwise-immersive environment at worst). I'm waiting to see what the "Official" announcement will be saying.

  6. Joan and the rest of our family send lots of love to yours. None of this would have possible with you two. This evening, one of our cats came in. We used the "leave it" command. It took her hearing it three times before she would quit looking at the cat (which is a requirement) so I know it wasn't one that was easy for her. Even so, after the command was given the third time, she turned around and went about her business. Then she got a bacon treat. The cats were not around while trainer was here so I anticipated much more trouble with then showed up. Joan chases them and barks at the

  7. This is fantastic. I can't even begin to explain how hard it was to make the decision to re home her. These updates make it feel as if this was the plan all along. Thanks for these updates. Love ❤️ how this turned out

  9. Oh, yes! We started giving her ice on the first night she was here. Our oldest dog loves ices as well, so that one didn't come as a surprise. We bought a bag of baby carrots, and she LOVES them. Our other dogs, of course, want nothing to do with them. We used some of them in our training session today for her big rewards. Used tiny bacon training treats for repetitions. We covered so much territory in our session today. Our trainer is amazing and said Joan is amazingly smart so caught on extremely quickly. To be honest, Joan is easier to train than we are. We have a lot of practice to alph

  12. I do honestly believe she was born to be a part of our family. She came to us in a round about way, but she was meant to be here. We have all bonded completely, and I can't imagine life without her. We all love her dearly and she shows her love back to us. She is a Disney girl for sure. She has a Baymax stuffed doll that she sleeps with. She could easily tear it limb for limb, but doesn't. She carries it gently and keeps it on the couch during the day. We found out that she loves balls! She found a tennis ball outside and was so excited. Now she gets to play fetch a few times a day. She lo

  13. And on the topic of maintenance and the fort. Trust me we all put way to much faith in the fort and their service connections. I have had one trip with over a grand in repairs to my electrical system. I had always thought that after the bid upgrades and system wide surge and lightning arresters were put in that there was no risk. I was very wrong along with all our neighbors on that loop ( jack rabbit run) Then I got a good surge protector with a display. The voltage is all over the place and very inconsistent. Amperage I can only see my draw not what is there

  15. I feel bad for our southern friends. At least up here, most know how to deal with it. Seven degrees here now, but sunny. Best piece of advice I can offer is, stay off the roads until the snow/ice is gone. If you do need to go out, take a blanket, food (like pop tarts), and something to drink if case you get caught up in a traffic problem. Good Luck.

  17. Andrew Roberts, We have discussed it as a family and we will give your girl a good home. We have no problem with having a dog with separation anxiety. The dog we rescued from a ditch had severe separation anxiety, although he is getting better. Three members of our family are almost always home. We thought he had been hit by a car, but he actually had tick paralysis and is healthy now, just a tad emotional. This is what put us behind in getting a service dog. He needed lots of time an attention, but he is now a strong secure dog. Can't be alone though, which is not a problem with our famil

  18. Also Roberts if you guys decided this is not the time for you. Could you forward the info for the therapy dog group. We would donate the dog to the group if they would train her and give her to a person in need

  19. If you can possibly get her to a breed rescue instead of a shelter, please do. Dogs with SA can have a really hard time getting adopted out of shelters and if they're also very smart and energetic, can also decline really quickly in a shelter environment (making them even harder to adopt out). Looks like there are a couple of rescue groups not far from WDW...
