    Wow. It really means so much to me that you took the time to not only read through a year's worth of posts on my thread, but also that you took the time to write out such a thoughtful message. Thank you! I have big dreams about expanding what I'm doing. Buying some land and building a...

    One thing to note is that here on the forum it might sound like I'm simply selling dog training lessons to teach a dog how to sit, but in practice I sell solutions to problems that affect people's daily lives and quality of life - dog is pulling your arm out of socket because it wants to murder...

    Two more small updates. First, I totally forgot that I'm looking to start a part time evening job. It's the most ideal part time job I think I could ever hope to find. It pays well, the person I'll be taking over for says the most they've worked in 6 years was 15 hours in one week, some weeks...

    I also haven't been clear about my preferred pronouns! Please consider (or don't) using "Ms. Dog Lady" and "MA'AM." You're teaching me valuable lessons in communication!

    Opportunities in Food Business Entrepreneurship: Don't Dismiss It.

    NOTABLE! ASSERTION 
    Nope, we have them at Costco in New Mexico as well. I've been daydreaming about getting it to use for homemade dog treats. Because dog "food" and treats are even more nutritionally lacking and more full of poisons/toxins than human food products.

    @heavy_industry you're too funny :rofl: but also thank you for showing me kindness while making me laugh. I was sloppy with my English and the use of the word "start." To be more clear, I enrolled in a very established dog training academy. I didn't create one.

    Rant: My Audience Resides in Ghost-Ville

    RANT 
    As a 33 year old woman who has lost a couple of pets recently, I would be more likely to respond to something that was much more emotional in nature. When it comes to my pets' health and death, forget money, a discount isn't going to be my main motivator. If the order information includes the...

    Time for an update I suppose. Feeling kind of "meh" about my updates, as it's not clear to me if or how I can provide any value to this community. But here it goes. The academy is going well. I'm learning a ton and I have gotten to meet 1:1 with my absolute favorite dog trainer of all time...

    Why Do I Keep Getting Stuck at a Few Hundred Bucks a Month?

    IDEA 
    When I first started entering the entrepreneurial world, I wanted to sell products, whether digital or physical. But that was my problem, I wanted to sell so I could solve my own financial problems and have more time freedoms. And I wanted it fast. And I got stuck fast. Finding problems to solve...

    How Turning Down Business Can Lead To More Business

    GOLD! HOT! EXECUTION 
    I'm not sure if these count, but here are some of my recent experiences. For context, I'm a dog trainer. I had a consultation with a prospective client where I asked a bunch of questions and heard them out about their dog problems. They live a bit out of my current service area, so I created a...

    I know I reacted with a laugh, but it's really kind of sad how people live with their dogs sometimes. It means a lot when people trust me enough to let me into their homes, their lives, to help with these kinds of things and teach/show them a better way/what's possible.

    February. Another month gone by so fast. Income was not as great as January, but the most important bills are getting paid. I organized a "Cans for Cats and Canines" fundraiser for the local animal shelter. I made it into a competition, where people who donated aluminum cans chose Team Cat or...

    The first round with the first flyer, I sent out ~3,000 and got about 3 or 4 calls. The second round during the winter holiday season I sent out 7,500 and got 0 calls. I currently can't support the cost of trying this again. I've found that most of my calls come from word of mouth. A few from...

    Not sure if this is the original original you were thinking of, but: https://www.amazon.com/ShamWow-Original-Absorbent-Multi-Purpose-Cleaning/dp/B07CND4MCC?th=1 Probably still not what you've been looking for, but maybe someone else like biophase has some input.

    Puppies are so much work lol I tell people all the time that I'll stick to my 4 y.o. rescues with aggression :rofl: Glad there are people like you looking out for rescue puppies! They also make these alternative potty boxes. The first one has a permeable turf cover that catches liquids in a...

    I'm sorry for your loss :( My guess is that by doing this you gave him an extra moment to assess his surroundings and feel safe enough to continue walking. A lot of times things can be solved just by us humans slowing down a few seconds.

    About how old are these rascals? I give puppy rearers a TON of credit. I've heard of some people teaching small dogs, including puppies, to use a litter box (not with kitty litter though, see video below). View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=smi2toypYSE&ab_channel=MustLoveLabs
