Stanima dog?

Ok, i want to get a dog that has a lot of stanima. I like to roller blade A LOT and the michigan weather get sorta hot and humid in the summer and wet and cold in winter. Im worried about maybe a huskey getting over heated while roller blading. And a dog that would be able to SORT OF pull me. ( I DONT make the dog pull me all of the way, as i am a dog walker) I just want a dog that will be healthy and happy and not get over heated or too cold. What is the best choice?

Stanima dog?
your best bet would be to look at your local shelters. they have many husky mixes or any other type of breed that suits exactly what you are looking for. since you can provide a lot of exercise i'm sure they have tons of dogs looking for a home just like yours. as long as you can provide vet care and training as well. try www.petfinder.com





there are hundreds of young adult dogs who would love to come home with you and be your roller buddy!
Reply:dalmations were bred to run with the fire carriages, so they have a lot of stamina. it wouln't get too hot b/c it has a short coat. there are plenty of breeds that want and need lots of exercise. just do some research to find which breed is best for you. good luck
Reply:have u look at Austrailanshepard they are very active an will go all day an are very loving http://www.tkaustrailianshepards.com/
Reply:I'd suggest a standard sized Poodle. The big poodles, I've seen a poodle compete in the sport where the dog (s) pull a skier in the snow, so I'm sure it could pull you easily on skates, also these dogs are high in energy so you can expect the dog not to get tired soon. For summer months you could shave the dog and for winter months you can let the coat lengthen. Huskies are fine in almost any weather, you see Huskies living in Florida or California, even Arizona all year round with no problems even though it can become intense heat in those states. As long as you allow breaks and keep the dog fully hydrated you should have no problems with getting a Husky.

Whats the t.v. show?

They were roller blading. And the guy was from California or something. He meets this chick and they go into a plant house. He goes skating around the place, and surprises her. The one guy is like a total goofball and tries to get a date. Umm..he surfs then he tries to roller blade.

Whats the t.v. show?
Air Borne.......I'ts actually a movie and the goof ball was played bt Seth Greene.
Reply:It was filmed mostly in Cincinnati, Ohio. Lots of hills and winding roads.

How to rollerblade without falling?

are there any links to tell u how to roller blade withoguth falling? or keeping ur legs balanced? cause when i roller skate i can go but cant stop and soemtiems fall.. or i think its too big for me so it makes it go to the side and thats y i lose balance but still what are some tips and tricks on how to be better at it?

How to rollerblade without falling?
Well the only way you can rollerblade without falling 100% is getting used to the rollerblade which means you gotta practice. If i were you i would try rollerblading with someone to keep an eye on you. Eventually you will get the flow, and you will feel like a natural with skates. If i were u i would check the size of the blades 2. It might be too big for u.
Reply:Hold on to something
Reply:keep your knees bent and don't be so stiff, if that doesn't work, you could always get training wheels lol.
Reply:Make sure you bend you knees and shoulders so that if someone was to look on you from above, your shoulders, knees and toes would all be equal.





When you are trying to stop, try a T stop. Keep one foot heading forward. LIFT the other one, and then gently drag it along behind you . Your feet make a T shape.





Also make sure that your blades are done up correctly, if they are too lose they are no good. When rolling make sure your blades are upright, as in you're not skating with the wheels on a massive angle.

Should I do this and fall to purposely get hurt?

I'm thinking about going roller blading right now. I love roller blading, I'm really good.





I don't know why, but I'm thinking about going to my middle school to roller blade around the parking lot...and purposely fall, to get a big scrape across my arm. No one's there because its late, so no one will see. I don't know why, but I want to do this. I think I will at least try.





Is there some psychological reason behind this?

Should I do this and fall to purposely get hurt?
Well, there could be a lot of motives you may have that you don't realize.





-Perhaps (and this could be totally wrong.. don't worry, I'll give more motives) you wish to do this so you can show off the scrape? It'd make you seem more dedicated and hard core-- could that be it?





-Maybe you want a scrape to prove yourself to yourself. Someone who would get scrapes from any activity (accidentally) is the type who is dedicated enough to go through pain to get better at it.





I'm thinking the second objective for you. It's like this: visualize someone who feels like they've been through a lot, but maybe really hasn't in the big scheme of things. Maybe they want the "chip on the shoulder" of having a tough life to feel like a better person- would you have a greater respect for a man who opened his own ice cream shop and grew up with loving parents, or someone who opened his own shop and grew up with parents who were abusive and threw him out? Most would say the second man, because (although he did the same thing that the other man did), his achievement seems harder to come by because of his hardships. Someone who imagines their life to be worse than it is could be aiming for that same respect- even if it just comes from within.





I think you are looking for the credibility of a person who is dedicated enough to fall and hurt themself while blading- just so, what you do, and how you work, and what your life is like makes you feel better for being you.





But you shouldn't do it! Think about this: you'll feel really good about who you are for you if you start to appreciate what you already do awesome in life and your own hardworking capabilities. You don't need a scrape to prove anything to anyone else- or just yourself.
Reply:I bet you're thinking along the same line that Steven Krane was when he wrote 'Red Badge of Courage'. Not sure of the spelling of Krane.





In "Red Badge.." the main character needs a wound to prove to himself he's the master of the battlefield. No matter that the wound he gets is from being slugged by one of his own army guys.





Anyway, it's a complex emotion.
Reply:Have you ever gotten in an accident like that and in return gotten a lot of attention later on? Maybe that’s what you’re seeking for; the love and attention you get from people when you’re hurt.
Reply:Hurting yourself on purpose would be a psychological problem. Either you don't feel pain properly, or have a strange idea of how to get attention... Neither are good.
Reply:Attention! -- Or you want to see if you still feel?


Or you want to see what its like to get hurt doing that?

dog skin problem

My knees and my ankles hurt? =S?

it started this week, and it's really annoying. When i go down stairs my ankles will have pain in them and my kneez ( for kneez a bit) Like i use to be able to run perfectly but all of sudden i realized that my kneez and ankles hurt when i ran ?? im 16 years old, 5ft 8". I weight about 180 pounds, but this is normal i could run just fine with the same weight. Like when i ran i felt the pain a little but it's when i try to stop when it hurts. Just today i was running and after that there was alot of pain in my kneez and ankles. i just wanna know if this is something serious, like the pain is bearable, it doesn't hurt like mad or anything. It's just annoying. O and when i roller blade like even when i roller blade really fast, i dont feel that pain as often. It's only when pressure is put on it that it hurts. Going down stairs ect. pls hellppp!!! i dont wanna give up soccer, baseball, track, and ice hockey =(

My knees and my ankles hurt? =S?
possible strain, or even developing stress fractures?


With all your exercise, do you wear properly fitted athletes shoes? Different ones for all your sports? If you are getting pain running, that would be the first thing ti look at.

Where do I honestly go from here?

So i had a guy I was dating for 3 years. and its been about a year that we have not seen each other. And well today we met up so he can get his roller blades..he asked.. and when i saw him he had his new girlfriend with him. But the only thing he could talk about was our past or about how crazy and weird the relationship was with her. now i dont know what to think but he spent about twenty minutes with me till she came out of the car and walked over. thatn he came in to my work to get a drink. and still stayed in there to talk to me. now the one thing that was a little strange was that he kept asking me how my newer relationship was. so i felt the need to lie to him and say great, when really it sucks. what do i do.i still love him and cant let go. where do i go from here?

Where do I honestly go from here?
he wants to reconnect to you, if you really want to hook up with him, see how he fully feels, do more investigation. He might be generally just nice and trying to find common ground to talk to you.
Reply:Send him an email saying it was great to see him again. End with Keep in touch. See what happens.
Reply:Well he is with someone, so its selfish to hurt that girl, but it sounds like he hasnt gotten over you yet. you shouldnt lie, u have to be honest. women do big mistakes, lying and going around a story to fit the other persons needs or if that lady is insecure but seriously, your doing more damage, to you and to him, especially both of your relationship, so.... be honest .. go for lunch as friends , without his gf and talk about things, youll be surprised what he might say, it is being self confident about situations and learning to deal with them in a mature way.

Why does mom love my older bro so much more ?

for his 18th birthday she bought him a 1962 corvette stingray. and gave me roller blades for my 18th birthday. his college tuitiion was paid for plus she got money for living expenses, i had to take out a $50000 loan. now for his 30th birthday she is building him a house at Hilton Head. She is now allowing me to stay at home for my last year of college as long as i pay rent ($350/month + 1/2 of utilities and gas for the car). i'm much darker than the rest of my family...perhaps i was adopted...i need to look into this..any suggestions ?

Why does mom love my older bro so much more ?
haha with the difference in skin tone sounds like you were probably just a mistake from the mailman!! She probably can't stand you and wishes you never were...! Dude like seriously i saw this stuff on CSI and they can find your real dad... forget your mom, steal her money and run w/ it!
Reply:Woah. Ask her. Confront her.


Honestly, I would have.


Use your examples.





"Mom, we need to talk." Sit her down. "I want to be treated fairly, I would appreciate it if you listened, to the whole thing"


Pause. "I think you are treating me and _your_bro's_name_ differently. I feel upset you are treating him better." Let your mom respond. "For his 18th birthday, you got him a car. I got roller blades." Pause "His colledge tuition was paid for, aswell as living expenses. Why was mine not? Why do I have to pay rent for living with you? Why for his 30th birthday you're getting him a house?" Let her respond. "I want to be treated fairly.." That's what I'd say.
Reply:How old are you??


You said building him a home at Hilton Head for his 30th


but you are allowed to stay home for your last year of college.


So you are still in college...just wondered if your life style may be something that she does not approve of..have you ever had a big disagreement with her that she may still be holding


over your head. Do you and your brother have similar personalities? I just have questions because wonder what could be the reason..Is she closer to him . Like he visit more or suck up ??? Got to be something we didn't hear.
Reply:talk to her....be open and honest, its all you can do.


explain to her how you feel, be calm and genuine, and if she reacts badly then....her loss


dont let her favouritism ruin your life, make the effort to straighten it out and if she doesnt respond, try and move on...i know its difficult and you've got a right to be upset but dont let it take over your life


good luck xox
Reply:i say bring it up with her. it sounds like extreme favoritism. she should know how it makes you feel. and i guess you can look into the adoption thing
Reply:My god your mum sounds like a *****. You should confront her about this before you do something that you regret.

Am I self absorbed?

OK so heres the deal I've just moved to a much smaller place which is hard cause I'm maybe used to a little luxury, but I'm still intact with the real world, I'm gonna start a new school. Naturally I'm nervous, and the place which I'm going to has UNIFORM, and its fugly. I have a little bro and sis which are great, and I do try and help mum when I register she might need help. Me and dad dont have the best relationship, he called me fat once, it really hurt. Mum agrees but she'd never say it to my face. While unpacking I thought that if I find my old roller blades me and mum could go out around the park or something, be healthy.





I told her about my idea and she started snapping at me telling me I was so self absorbed 'all I ever think about is myself' . I dont think thats true, can you people please tell me if I'm self absorbed and what the hell my mum is thinking? (and please leave out the whole stupid teen part, its quite offensive)


thanks!

Am I self absorbed?
no not at all.. idk what your parents are thinking, but anyone going through problems is going to be upset and want to talk about it w/ other people. and its great your trying to help your parents. i know personally with my dad too, he always thinks hes right, saying this and that, but he doesn;t understand at all. you have to be right there and go through exactly what your going through to understand. im sorry i hope everything gets better, but your deff not self absorbed!
Reply:Your mom might be stressed from the moving. But that doesn't give her an excuse. You aren't self absorbed at all for wanting to spend time with her. Give her some space then when things get less busy, talk to her about it and tell her she hurt your feelings
Reply:You're mom might just be stressed from the move and having to put you kids into different schools. Try sitting down with her and asking her if everything's ok, and just let her know you were only wanting to spend some quality time with her amid all the chaos you all have been going through lately.

Why are Segways so expensive?

They cost an arm and leg


almost 3,000 for a used one! And 5,000 for a new one.





Honestly what is their purpose and why alienate the majority of the buyer's market to appeal to wealthier people?





I'd rather buy a very expensive skateboard set, a pair of roller blades, a pro mountain bike and even a used civic instead of those overpriced pieces of crap.

I want to be healthy but....?

I'm 5 ft 150 lbs but I hate working out on machines it's not fun!! I like to rollerblade, jump on my pogostick, ride my bike and take my dogs for a walk (all 3, with my mom) is this as good as exercising on a treadmill? I live in PA, and let's just say last weekend (Saturday) it SNOWED. Yeah...Pa is still cold. It's around 46-50 or something degrees here. So is it ok to go outside to exercise on my bike, roller blades, pogo stick...? Thanks and if I do one of those every day (well almost every day) will I lose weight thanksss


BTW I eat healthy

I want to be healthy but....?
riding your bike and stuff is just as good as working on a machine. on a machine its just a more constant work out. theres not point in wasting your time on one if your not having fun though. worrying about that kinda stuff just kinda ruins ur day though. enjoy yourself what ever your doing. if you worked out alllll the time and constantly worried about it sure you would be healthy but whats the point of having a healthy body if you cant enjoy it.
Reply:All of those are great exercises, and they'll help you burn off calories very well. Just eat healthy, and cut down on any red meats. Animal fat is the worst thing when you try to lose weight. It's why vegetarians always seem to be healthier.

Is there a difference between men's and women's skates?

Is there a difference between men's and women's in-line skates? I was looking at roller blades, but I want to buy the ones that will fit my feet the best.

Is there a difference between men's and women's skates?
There is a difference in sizing, but the best way to find skates that fit you (no matter what type of skates you are buying) is to try them on. When buying roller blades/in-lines specifically, just make sure that your ankles don't bend inward. You should be able to EASILY stand straight up with your ankles and knees directly over your skates. If they are too big, you can cause yourself some SERIOUS ankle problems! Not to mention that skates that are too big will cause blisters (from the friction of your feet moving inside the boot)!





GOOD LUCK!
Reply:men and womens skates have totally diffent sizes.





mens skates are wider and spacious





womens skates are tighter and have a smaller size.

Does anyone know of this cartoon?

Ok I remember there was this 2d cartoon in the 90s where the main character was a boy with a team of robots that fought a team of evil robots. Each robot was different there was one that was a ninja, one on roller blades etc. And they rode around in these huge vehicles. Also I think it was integrated with 3D portions where they would say "Time to put on your 3D shades" and you could watch the action sequences in 3D.





I hope I'm not just imagining this... Anyone know what it was called?

Ceaser Milon?

My brother watches dog whisperer and all of a sudden he thinks he knows more about dogs than I do. Who pleaded to get a dog for monthes? Me! Who did research on Google for three hours a day? Me! Who looked up the best breeds of dogs? Me1 Me! Me! ME! He also makes up common scense rules. My parents don't do anything, so what do I do? I keep my feelings bottled up which I know is not healthy. How do I tell my brother that I know more about dogs than him? How do I tell him ceaser (salad) only helps the owners to show the owners how to teach their dog new tricks?Added note- Ceaser's roller blades are weird!

Ceaser Milon?
Here's my analogy of Cesar Milan.





A few years back the Atkins Diet craze hit. Many jumped on the bandwagon and got temporary results. Meanwhile, nutritionists stood by and shook their heads - knowing that this was INSANE.





Same thing with Cesar Milan. He has no education or credentials. Anyone with any actual knowledge of dog behavior knows he's a hack. His methods may work temporarily, but in the long run - all you do by training a dog that way is create a ticking time bomb.





Glad to hear that most of you are seeing this guy for what he really is.
Reply:Yes, his methods are old and generally ineffective. Also, none of the dogs on the show seem to like him, which amuses me since he is apparently the "Dog Whisperer." He doesn't even have a graduate level education, which obviously shows through his methods. He is not technically a dog behaviorist or psychologist (he would need a master's or doctorate for that). Rather, he is a dog trainer that got his own tv show and seems to make the pet psychology field look ridiculous.
Reply:first of all i think the dog whisperer is a load of bull b/c the same friggin thing happened to me. i've been workin my but off @ a pet store since my parents opened it. i learned ligitamate ways on how to train your pet and what chemicals work and what doesn't and my grandparents started watching that stupid show and know they think they know the best way to train my dog. The "dog whisperer" does have some good, proven ways of training but also aloyt of them are just crackpot things that he films when it works and doesn't film when it doesn't work.





that bitter apple spray incident, that stuff does wirk, if you use it the way your supposed to, and your deffinately not supposed to spray it on there face, tell your genious brother to read the back label! but finding a way to prove to your brother that he's kind of an idiot, just let him read all of your responses to your question!





have fun proving him wrong
Reply:tell him to research Cesar, that he IS being sued for a dog that was injured on his premisis (he was not there, but staff used the treadmill, the dog now has 20000 worth of damage, and the owner is only suing for vet costs!)


he gets bitten, OFTEN. They don't show all of the cases on the show.


MOST dog behaviorists think that his ways are bad, they were used 20+ years ago.





There is a group here on yahoo. dogbehaviourscience look it up, then start reading about Ceasar. But don't ask about him, its been gone over a billion times, just look in past postings!





and yes, the added note was nessecerry. GRAB THE BOTTLE AND THROW IT OUT!
Reply:I watch "Emergency Room Vets", but I'm not qualified to offer medical advice to anybodies pet.


I watch "Animal Cops", and I'm not familiar with all the animal rights laws.


I watch "CSI", and I'm not a police investigator.


I could go on with this, but tell your brother to read the disclaimer at the beginning of the "Dog Whisperer".
Reply:Ceasar Milan is a hack, and his methods are abusive. If your brother thinks he knows everything about dogs because he learned it from Ceasar, he is wrong. You could do better by going to Pet Smart and buying a book than by taking advice from Ceaser Milan.





Note: If anyone ever sprayed chemicals in my dog's face for any reason other than self-defense, they would leave on a stretcher.
Reply:You seem to have more of an issue with your brother than with Ceaser. Your brother is just being a brother....a pain in the butt....that is what they are for. Yes, it is annoying when they are being show off, know it alls. Think of it this you will have the last laugh. Don't keep you feelings bottled up either......punching bags are a good way to release anger. By no means does this mean that you are to string your darling brother up by his neck and punch him!





I have heard what Ceaser has said, I have seen a part of his show once. I saw more than I needed or wanted to. I didn't agree with what he was doing, in fact many years ago (long before he was on TV), I tried exactly what he was showing on TV and it failed....in fact that was the point I turned off the show. From what I understand Ceaser has a good personality and he is a very charming man, therefore good TV. If he stops only ONE person from beating on a dog that is a good thing.





I have met several people who watch the show, some have never even owned a dog.....but they are now expert dog trainers.





WELCOME to the world of dogs!!! This is how is it. You take everything with a grain of salt. You learn to smile.





As far as that Bitter Apple goes. Product end use is not spraying it in someone's face it is meant to be spray on something. I believe you all ready pointed that out. Don't do it. I do not personally believe in spraying anything in a dog's face to stop a behavior. But that's me. If you feel the need to do this, plain water would to the trick. Throw the stuff out or instruct your brother to use only as directed on the label.





Maybe you can try to get your brother interested in those home repair or car repair shows. Then he maybe just start being master carpenter or mechanic and stop being a dog trainer.
Reply:the main thing about the Dog Whisperer is that he is teaching people you don't have to beat, choke, stave, or kick a dog to teach it. The Dog Whisperer sees dogs under almost crisis situations. AND do you think they will televise any of his mistakes or dogs his methods don't help?





I think he is great! BUT! The Dog Whisperer does not give the dogs enough credit for intelligence. He purely views them as animals. I have one dog who is so smart I can take him anyplace with out preparation. He has not been trained. He is just very intelligent. He really understand about 60 words, not commands. He even talks back with snorts. ( all he really wants to talk about is food though)





The Dog Whisperer is good. You should recognize that and adopt some of his methods But dogs are like people, all different. Your brother should recog nise the The dog Whisper is after all a TV program. NOt total reality.





MY GOD that is abuse!! REAd the directions they say not to spray on th edog!!!! BAth your dog quick! The poor thing! Tell your parents!!! And he does not spray his dogs in the face with anything!!!! TEll your parents we will poison your dog!!!! Of blind him!





Look kid if this is how you rbrother is you need to find a good home fo that poor dog. Find him a place where he is not abused. If I lived near you I woul report him to the Humane Society! If you rparents are allowing him to torture this poor dog they need reported to childrens services. Any child who tortures animals is very ill. Your brother needs help! And if you rparents don't get i tof rhim they need reproted to the proper authorities!
Reply:Just say "just because you watched the dog whisperer you don't have to pretend you can talk to them to. What do you really beleive in that stuff you loser"
Reply:Caesar has several good methods, however I do not agree with all of his methods. I do not feel holding a dog on the floor is right, that's just being a bully. I have used the 5 finger touch to redirect my dogs attention or to let him know I disapprove (as a pack leader or momma dog would do). Most of his methods are to show people you don't need to beat your dog to make him listen.





I know they don't show failed cases, but I have seen him tame the beast in many dogs.... of course they don't show you everything they had to go through to get the dog that far.





My father-in-law bought his book "Ceasar's Way", and yes, I've read it.





I've never heard him say, seen him use nor did I read it in his book anything about spraying a dog in the face with bitter apple. He doesn't use any chemical deterants, he uses "redirect". If the dog is chewing something they aren't supposed to, he redirects to something they are allowed to chew.





As far as his roller blades, yeah they do look a little weird. I rollerblade with my doberman every morning, and it helps expell energy and is great exercise.
Reply:Cesar Millan. Don't blame your brothers stupidity on Cesar. I was lucky enough to get Cesars help with a problem my dog had.Cesar is a very cool guy and knows his SH!T.He does not spray bitter apple on barking dogs, his methods are totally different than that. He would find out why the dog is barking I.E. aggression ,anxiety ,fear etc. and work on the issue more specifically.Bitter apple is to be sprayed on items to prevent chewing, not to be used as a weapon.More to point you and your brother need to be on the same page as far as how you train your dog, two different people and two different approaches will most likely make your dog 'Crazy'. Really put your dfferences aside for the sake of your dog. I suggest joining a group obeidience class together so you both learn and teach in similar ways.I also highly reccommend you watch the Dog Whisperer. Cesars methods do work and quite well. As far as the Law suit, it has nothing to do with his methods. He was exercising a dog that was very out of shape and had a hidden heart defect and had a heart attack,no one felt worse than Cesar..
Reply:Does it really matter who knows more about dogs? Caesar does not only teach dogs new tricks. He also helps dogs who have behavioral problems. If you really feel that way just tell him, or you could be the bigger person and just let him think that he does.





P.S. Was the "Added note" really necessary?
