    Saw peer tutor. Was really helpful. Didnt think we'd be speaking for an hour though ah. Talked about how to apply and went throught that and then half talked about interviews. But aw shes so nice and didnt want to overwhelme me with info. Asked me if still working at primark & how is it and i was like yeah but really boring. And she said you have so much to offer and was being so nice and saying it would be so great if i could get a job in it.

    Oh my god, thank you for sharing that link! My dog barks like a brat at any noise or dog ever, me and my dad have tried several approaches but she doesn't really stop. I'm definitely giving this a try too.

    I've forced myself to start eating healthier and going out a bit more. It's really difficult, but I'm pretty impressed with myself for managing for now :)

    @Kathleen07   it makes most sense than any other video ive watched on it & the comments are so positive. Ive only started doing it to him today and there is definetly a change. He would bark at every single person walking by the garden 4 times out of 6 he never barked & was like wow wtf already cause he barks at everyone thinking hes a gaurd dog. And the other two times i brang him in a put him in the bathroom and told him it was okay & let him stay there for a few mins lolll & literally think hes starting to get the hang of it already cause he heard noise cominng from outside, he looked at me first i said its okay and he put his head back down and didnt bark!!! Like omg. Ive just been watching videos that tell you to distract them but lol never worked. Didnt take him on a walk today cause trying to get him to build my trust in keeping him safe & doesnt need to be a guard dog. Only problem is hes not weeing in the garden as much lol cause he wees everytime he barks at someone like from being scared or something lol. Now hes weeing in the house😓 so feel like im training he right from a puppy now lol

    @Shaunie that's amazing! It's reassuring to hear it's already having an affect on Teddy because Mitzi thinks she's a guard dog too lol - car door shuts, she barks, people talk, she barks, another dog dares to exist, she barks :/ It's kind of funny but it's also really embarrassing, not to mention my sibling hates it. I hope Teddy keeps making progress, that would be great!

    Thinking of getting teddy properly trained and then getting a sausage dog for a friend!!!!  
    Its taking a lot of effort to stick to the training stragty but will keep at it and hope he improves and stops barking at every single person or dog

    Went on a nice long dog walk this morning, left the house at 8am and got back at 11am, very nice and pleasant walk except where I slipped and fell into a puddle and my butt got all wet and muddy, other than that generally great day

    So i joined a facebook group on facebook on mental health. Only one mutural friend on it and we started texting. I know her from college. Was never in the same college class. But meet her once on someones birthday meal & she was funny & sooo nice. Been speaking to her on text and stuff and she was like she would be happy to meet up for drinks ect or christmas shopping. Shes so nice. But i think shes too cool for me lol. Am a loser
