Sunbeam Sonic Egg Bark Control Device https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PINYA82/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_T2RyCb13Z876X

Try one of these out. Dogs fucking hate it. Had to get one for neighbors behind me. They neglect their dogs so they bark at the wind blowing. It's really annoying, but sad. You wanna hate the dog for being loud but it's not its fault. The shitty part is the owners keep the dogs outside no matter what, whether it's 110 outside or 20. Bought this thing and it keeps them from continuous barking.

u/vibratoryblurriness · 37 pointsr/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns

I was having that issue. Seemed like a great reward for spending 90 minutes or more at a time deforesting myself. Then I started aggressively exfoliating, and it mostly cleared up pretty quickly.

u/thekiyote · 14 pointsr/aww

Honest answer? Clicker training.

Here are the steps:

  1. Find a treat your cat loves more than anything else, and something small enough that your cat can eat it in a second. My cats love cooked ground beef, but cheese, salmon, lunch meat and certain treats are all good choices.
  2. Get a training clicker like this (or learn to make the noise)
  3. For a week or two, click then give your cat a treat over and over again. You're teaching your cat to bridge the noise with a treat coming.
  4. Then start clicking your cat when he does something you like. It's a message saying "I'm about to give you a treat for what you're currently doing".
  5. Find ways to get your cat to do things. Waving a treat above their head to get them to stand, waving a toy on a target to hit it on cue, etc. As they start getting things in broad strokes, you can hone in on what you want them to do by choosing what you click.

    If you want more info, read Don't Shoot The Dog. It's the same idea. The biggest difference is that your cats attention span is probably much shorter than a dog's, so you got maybe 15-20 minutes when training them before they get bored. You just need to keep doing it every day.
u/opkc · 14 pointsr/bestoflegaladvice

We had problems with our own dog barking. We bought this ultrasonic bark deterrent. When a dog barks nearby, it emits an unpleasant, high-pitched sound only dogs can hear.


It cured our dog’s barking problem immediately. After a week, we didn’t even bother to turn it on anymore.


It wouldn’t be too difficult for LAOP to keep his dog separated since it works so quickly. The range is about 50 feet, and you can adjust the sensitivity. LAOP could hang it on his fence on the neighbor’s side and just turn in on when they start to bark.

u/nicgeorgie · 11 pointsr/Rabbits

Awe I’m sorry about your first bun.
You’re in for a wild ride with a baby! Definitely, absolutely, no matter what, get your bun fixed.
They will get seriously bad attitudes if you don’t, imagine puberty times a million! Plus a lot of other issues that can come with not getting them fixed both medical and personality wise.

If you haven’t already rabbit proof your place, I use these cord covers but any will work. I swear rabbits like the little zap of electrocution or something but they can seriously burn their mouths chewing wires.

Also this no chew spray has been an absolute god send. My rabbits have chewed up literally everything wood I own, baseboards, bed frame, table legs. Then I found this stuff. They won’t even go near anything that’s been sprayed with it.

You should do monthly checks on your bun as well. Check teeth (make sure they’re being ground down and not growing in funny, lava rock products help them file their teeth, as they never stop growing) check inside ears, eyes, nail trim, that sort of stuff. (You may already know all of this)

Baby buns also require different food and hay than adult buns do.

I swear by Oxbow products, you’ll want their Essentials Young Rabbit Food , it’s a lot higher in nutrients than adult rabbit food, as they’re growing and such they need a bit more. And you’ll want alfalfa hay for a baby bun but switch to Timothy hay once she reaches “adulthood”, along with adult rabbit food.

Sorry that was a lot of info I love buns, mine are my whole life. Feel free to ask me anything if you have questions!

My buns, Cuppy and Cash

u/Avridt · 10 pointsr/dogs

I use a dog treat bag (specifically this one), fits both doggy and human essentials. Fits my phone, keys, headphones easily. Would have space for a credit card or cash if I carried those on walks. I just wear it cross body for connivence, but you could probably use the clip to put it on a leash.

u/voodoobribri · 10 pointsr/Pets

are they fixed? if not get them fixed.

we have a lot of electronic equipment in the living room of our house. we sprayed some of this bitter spray on the cables so the cats won't chew on them. they tried once and never again, they absolutely hate the taste. you can try spraying it on items they are likely to chew. maybe keep some of the collectible stuff in storage until they realize that chewing things isn't fun anymore.

u/dstutz · 6 pointsr/woodworking

I moved shops recently and wanted to have piped dust collection so I started working on that. Somewhere while watching some videos I saw several where people had blast gates that switched the DC on and off and I was like that's awesome but they didn't go into much detail. I finally accidentally found one that gave a better idea of what products they used and bought the parts, tested it out and implemented it. It works great.

To turn on the collector I just open a blast gate. To turn off the collector I close the blast gate. Pretty simple and it makes it very hard to forget to close a blast gate and use another tool with reduced suction.

Short video of it in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59u5zHttUn4

The parts I used:

  • PowerSwitchTail II
  • Micro switches
  • 20/2 bell wire

    Edit: Oh and of all the methods I used to cut the DWV piping (bandsaw for shorter pieces and cleaning up, sawzall with a crappy miterbox-style 90 cutting guide and a handsaw in the same guide) the handsaw I think was the easiest to get a nice cut.
u/HappyLeprechaun · 6 pointsr/Dogtraining

If a fence is too expensive get him a long line and a corkscrew stake like this.

u/DevBot9 · 5 pointsr/nova

Depending on how close you live (and assuming your neighbor takes absolutely no responsibility) you could try leaving this outside.

u/Vollpfosten · 5 pointsr/whatisthisthing

One of those things that play a high pitch sound when the dog barks to train it being quiet?

u/radddchaddd · 4 pointsr/goldenretrievers

Hey! It's a Halti harness, and I have it paired with the leash.

I can't recommend it enough. It's super easy to put on and take off. Also, he gets excited when squirrels run by. I had a harness like this before, which he was easily able to pull with. With this harness, I can control him from the chest and back, which makes it really easy to keep him under control.

u/slamthedog · 4 pointsr/dogs

I use this. We don't have a fence so when we play outside I put the dogs on that leash.

u/makesmecringe · 4 pointsr/TrollXChromosomes

Bitter Yuck

Spray it on your plants. Your cat will try to eat them, then won't feel like eating them again. Our dog just sort of stopped, and she was fine.

For the record, in humans, it pretty much just makes your mouth taste like gross for a few hours. Don't get it on your hands.

u/EmergencyChocolate · 4 pointsr/germanshepherds

Such a cutie! My shepherd/bloodhound mix is a champion chewer, so the usual fluffy toys would get destroyed in a couple of minutes. Even though he loves to shred a fluffy toy (he always goes for the eyes first!), I usually stick to the more industrial-strength chewies. He loves kongs with peanut butter, nylabones, and especially bully sticks (dried bull penises - gross, I know, and kind of expensive, but great for chewing).

Rawhide is bad because it shreds and they can choke. May want to ask your vet about bully sticks and when they are age-appropriate, though, and you will want to make sure that you supervise them closely with the small piece when they get it down to a couple of inches. They can swallow the nub and it can lead to problems.

Also, don't get any edible dog treats that are not made in the USA. A lot of treats from Asia have been found to be terribly contaminated and lethally poisonous.

Another great option are sweet potato chews - you can make them yourself in a low oven (lots of recipes online), a dehydrator, or you can buy them in pet stores. They don't last as long as meaty treats but they can be a good change of pace for the dog. Dried chicken tenders are also good but don't last very long in my experience (and again, make sure they are made in the USA).

Antlers are a wonderful treat, but are very expensive. Bones...well, I'm on the fence about bones. I will occasionally give my guy knuckle bones, but shin bones and other marrow bones can chip teeth pretty easily. Talk to your vet about bones in general, they would be your best resource on that topic, I think.

Another thing my pup loves is when I take a paper towel tube, fold one side over, and put in some good stinky training treats. Then I fold down the other side of the tube and have him sit in the kitchen while I hide the tube for him to find in the other room (usually under a cushion or chair or a blanket). He'll spend a few minutes searching for it, then a few more minutes gnawing through the tube to get at the treats. It keeps his mind and his jaws occupied! I usually take the empty tube away from him as soon as he's gotten the treats out, but he's never tried to eat the paper or anything.

Yet another fun thing to do when the weather is a little warmer (or on a nice sunny cold day) is to make ice cubes with sodium-free chicken broth and then let the pup chew on them. I prefer to do this outside because it can be a little messy. Indoors I give my guy ice cubes as treats, which he enjoys a lot too (just not as much as the chicken broth cubes, those are his favorites).

About the kong: it's kind of spendy, but you won't have to buy another for a long time if you keep up with it. You can fill it with either wet food or peanut butter, and you can also freeze it once it's stuffed, which makes the pup have to work harder for his reward. I usually keep a frozen kong with peanut butter on hand to give him when I need to leave the house for any length of time; this keeps him occupied for a long time and keeps him away from shoes or other off-limits chewables. Keep it clean with a hot water soak every now and then.

GSDs are super-smart dogs as a rule and very much enjoy doing nose work and puzzles. Google up some dog puzzles and see what strikes your fancy; experiment with your guy to see what he likes the best. The ones my guy really love include the Kong Wobbler and the treat star pictured here. But he also loves it when I simply spend a few minutes hiding small stinky training treats all over the house for him to sniff out and devour.

The best thing you can do is spend time with him every day playing with him and engaging his mind. GSDs really thrive on agility games and hide-and-seek. We got our guy an agility course tunnel for Christmas and he's been scampering through it all week, he loves it and loves the praise and treats he earns for doing it. We also have him jump over stacked blocks and broomsticks for fun. The most fun I ever had with him was taking a 10 week agility training class. He loved it so much that I hope to do the advanced one next Spring.

Sorry I wrote so much, and I know it's not all about chewies, I just love my guy! Here's wishing you many wonderful years with your new best friend.

u/profuttbuck · 3 pointsr/gifs

Good on ya. I was considering those too, ended up using rebar and waratah stakes. Another option is goat/dog tether. Also, happy cake day.

u/salent0 · 3 pointsr/AskWomen

Keep in mind, I'm not an esthetician! This is just what I've learned getting waxes myself.

Is your girlfriend getting ingrowns from waxing or shaving? If she is really having problems with it, she should go to a professional who will help her out. Estheticians are professionals (usually at spas or salons) who work with skincare (like facials) and hair removal (like waxing).

Most legitimate spas will do a consultation before waxing. Some even offer free skincare consultations for facials. There is a good chance if she calls around, and mentions her problem specifically, an esthetician will be willing to book her for a consultation and recommend services/products to help with her ingrowns. Just be specific about the reason, and I'm sure someone will be willing to help.

Otherwise, the ladies at /r/skincareaddiction probably know more about this stuff than I do!

Exfoliating is basically removing the top layer of dead skin cells. You can actually do it on your face, legs, bikini area, pretty much anywhere, and it will leave your skin softer and smoother. In the case of post-waxing, or really just in general, it gives the new-growing hair a chance to break through the surface of the skin. Spas will sometimes give you exfoliating gloves to use after your appointment.

But yeah, the scarring sucks. :( I regret trying to get out deep ingrown hairs myself. For now I'm just leaving them alone until I can get to an esthetician because they are just way too deep.

EDIT: I did a quick search for "ingrown hairs" on that subreddit, here's one example of what they recommend over there.

u/SecondBee · 3 pointsr/dogs

I have this one . Highly rate it, really multifunctional and has really lasted well.

u/LucidDreamer18 · 3 pointsr/Dogtraining

Get a long line and let her run around that way. Even the most affectionate of dogs can change. This should be long enough, though I'm sure there are longer lengths. Just be sure you use a harness with this.

Has she encountered small children and men often enough to feel comfortable around them? Strange men can be quite intimidating and children can be erratic and unpredictable.

Keep her in a position to succeed and only let her off leash in secured areas. You should also work on bomb-proof recall so you can call her away from strangers in the event that this occurs again.

u/Swedishpunsch · 3 pointsr/AmItheAsshole

Get yourself a Sofa Scram. It works great on counters, too. It makes an unpleasant high pitched noise, which the cats don't like.

u/kalimashookdeday · 3 pointsr/dogs

Another thing that can make it easier on the both of you at times (if you don't prefer him offleash in the camp site while you guys are attending to things like dinner etc.) is maybe a 25' tie down cable you can wrap around a picnic table or get one of these things. It helps when I take my guy camping as to get some stuff done. He's never on it for more than a couple hours while we cook etc. and it makes it so we're not stumbling over him near the fire or kicking him while we're cooking etc.

I just bring his "camping" dog bed, which is just an old cheap dog bed with a few bones and chew toys and he's good to go while he's "tied down". I usually position it so at the furthest extended point he can come within reach of us but can't get near things like the fire pit and the cooking area. Since he's a GSD/Rottie he's a big guy and can easily jump up on table tops to steal stuff so you may not have the same issues with your Jack Russel but it's handy to have never the less!

u/molassesqueen · 2 pointsr/puppy101

We leave our dog outside during the day- there's just no other way it would work for us. From the general vibe I get from reading this sub, I'm bracing for disagreements and downvotes.

We've done several things to make sure she stays comfortable and doesn't get sick/hurt, and we haven't noticed any behavior problems (or gotten any complaints from neighbors about barking). I can't guarantee these will work for you, but we've had good results so far. We've been doing this since we got our dog at ~12 weeks; she'll be 18 weeks this week.

  • Probably the most important- I check on her every work day after ~4 hours. I'm lucky that I live close enough to my office that I can go home for lunch, take her on a walk, give her attention, feed her a meal, and be on my way. This is to say, my dog is not isolated in the yard all day. If you're unable to go home yourself, I would highly recommend hiring a dog walker for a lunchtime walk.

  • Have a tethered leash system. We bought something like this, but I recently saw some very similar items at Harbor Freight for a cheaper price. We placed it in an area where she is able to have shade thoughout the day and run around, but she's not able to get to anything that would be damaged by chewing.

  • Install an Invisible Fence. We got this brand and have been very satisfied. We installed it along our pre-exisiting fence and set the boundary range to as low as it will go. This is to prevent her digging under the fence and keeping her away from our driveway gate so she doesn't get hurt. For now, we keep her on the tethered leash and the fence collar, but once she gets more acclimated to the fence collar (and a little older) she'll be able to have free reign over the entire yard.

  • Get a dog house, and set it up in the area where you choose to have the lead.

  • Get a doggie swimming pool. We found a shallow trough at Tractor Supply that fit our purposes, but a kiddie pool would work great.

  • Make sure your dog has plenty of water! Right now we just use a big bowl but I'm looking into those self-refilling ones, too.

  • When you get home, spend time with your pup! In the mornings before I leave work, I make sure to get up in time to let her out to potty, play some fetch, and feed her breakfast. At lunch time, we go for a walk, sometimes do a quick training session, and feed her lunch. After work, it's a walk, extended training time, fetch, dinner time, general running around with toys, then one last potty before bedtime in her crate inside.

    Please let me know if you have more questions- this is my first dog so I'm figuring it out as I go, but my puppy seems happy and well-behaved! Good luck!

One with a scat mat on it. He won't even go near the damn thing once he jumps on it a couple times.

Bitter yuck is what I use, but there is also Bitter apple spray as another option. :)

Be careful with applying it, it’s bitter to us as well. Lol.

u/LaserRanger · 2 pointsr/vinyl

I'm about to order these:

http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00B1WRFV8/

The mofi sleeves have good reviews, but it sounds like the Diskeeper sleeves are thicker, and therefore easier to get into the jacket. I have not previously used either of them.

u/ASleepandAForgetting · 2 pointsr/puppy101

Fellow Dane owner here. As far as equipment, I have this leash and it's pretty well padded. You can clip both ends to the collar/harness and make a loop out of it for easier holding and less slipping, as well.

Part of owning a giant breed dog is sizing up equipment, unfortunately. I'd recommend a Freedom Harness and buying larger sizes as needed.

Instead of just focusing on the equipment, what are you doing to teach her that walking at your side is the appropriate way to behave? You shouldn't be relying on the tools to teach this for you. Instead, you need to reward her for being in the correct spot.

I know that you say you've been remiss in her training due to an event outside of your control, but I strongly urge you to dedicate as much time to it as possible. If you think being dragged by a 50 lb dog is tough, imagine being dragged by a 130 lb dog. My male was 100 lbs at 6 months, so your window in which your puppy is "easily" controllable is closing very quickly.

u/Sick_Trix22 · 2 pointsr/bernesemountaindogs

If they are chewing things like corners of wood tables like ours did, there is this spray that we purchased on amazon that you could spray whenever the dog would chew and it takes away their desire to chew that area. I’ll look for it right now and put in the link.

Edit: Searching “dog chewing deterrent spray” on Amazon gives you multiple good choices, but I’d recommend this one due to the wide range of usage.

u/gravitary · 2 pointsr/vinyl

any love for rice paper?

Outers

Inners

I use these. 2LPs are sometimes a little too snug but they work amazingly. All my jackets and inners are kept near perfect.

u/orangetangerine · 2 pointsr/dogs

I use this one, which is significantly quieter than the traditional box clicker like this one that you can find in any pet store. Now that my dog is older and isn't as fearful I find that I can use them interchangeably. I actually prefer the box clicker in certain environments (like outdoors or for more remote stuff) since the button clicker can sometimes be too soft.

If you have a dog that is scared or startled by the clicker, another good way to muffle it is wrapping it up in a sock. We had to start clicker training off like that at first to get her used to the sound being a good thing.

u/MinkySquirrel · 2 pointsr/squirrels

lol I recently bought clickers on Amazon for this express purpose. Haven't tested them out yet, but will be excited to do so soon!

u/orphanb · 2 pointsr/AllThingsDogs

I use a Halti lead:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/d/Training-Behaviour-Aids-Dogs/Halti-Training-Lead-BLACK-Large/B00589G9YY

I find it really good as you can change the length of the lead depending upon where you clip it. The end has a usual dog lead clip (like you use to clip the lead to the collar) and the lead has D rings along it so you can choose which one to clip the end to and therefore how long the lead is (maybe the pictures on the link will help this make sense more than my explanation!). This means I can have him on a short lead for more control or longer lead when not necessary. my SO also uses it when he runs with the dog because you can loop it around your waist and clip it.

It really comes in handy when you take the dog to a cafe/pub/whatever though, as you can just unclip the end and loop it around a (v heavy!) chair leg or something - none of the usual complications of how to secure the dog.

u/YahtzeeDii · 2 pointsr/Dogtraining

Have you tried a martingale collar?

Also, you can find many arrangements that allow you to have two connection points with the leash -- one on the collar and one on the harness, or maybe even both on a harness. There are leashes that have two clips like this that can help with houdinis (or HOUNDinis?!). Dogs might have a harder time escaping this way.

u/torlad · 2 pointsr/Agility

I have spent probably $250, probably a little more, on my equipment. I have 8 jumps , 3 sets of 6 weave poles that can be connected to make a set of 12 or 18, this tunnel from amazon , and a full size teeter totter. All of it was made from pvc minus the teeter board.

I made my own tunnel bags (4 sets) out of cheap drawstring bags with a bunch of Walmart bags lining the inside, and filled it with sand. Tied two of them together with enough rope to hold the tunnel down, but not constrict it.

I was lucky, and my parents surprised me for my birthday a few weeks ago by building and delivering a full sized a frame, so I didnt have to buy that.

All in all, I've spent about $100 on pvc, another $50 on all the fittings and end caps, the teeter board for around $15, that tunnel for $40, and then the rest on various supplies like paint, tape, a handsaw, nails, etc.

The tunnel is really good for beginners, but it does not curve well. A slight s or u bend is not a big deal, but you can't really do any u turns without it getting really bunched up and unsafe for the dog to navigate. I am looking at buying one of the cool runners tunnels as they seem to allow for more variety in tunnel layouts.

u/surlylemur · 2 pointsr/dogs

Your lab will love it. Get some flea and tick prevention from your vet. I got some at walmart once and put it on my dog and he went nuts like it was burning him or something. Freaked me the hell out too so I pretty much just get the tablets now from my vet. They are expensive, but they don't make my lab act like he's being burned alive.

Most animals won't approach you. If you are worried get some bear spray, that should ward off any critters.

If you are worried about recall and your pup chasing something get a 30-50 ft lead/leash. I have both of those sizes in 5/8 inch widths and it works well when i want to let him have some freedom in parks and fields around my town but can't let him off the leash. In heavily wooded areas it might not be feasible, but it is a decent option. My guy was around 8 months when I took him to a cabin in the middle of the woods/by a lake and he took to it as well as you would imagine.

30 ft lead

50 ft lead

u/dogsarelifuhe · 2 pointsr/dogs

KONG works wonders for me. Half-freeze it and boom! Endless puppy satisfaction. It's really strong and you can put treats in it entice your pup. As fuckmylife112 says, rotate your toys so that your pup won't get bored. I also use those rope toys (tug-of-war toys) because they're also pretty strong. Do note that you need to reward good behavior and use a stern but warm voice when correcting your pup like yelping when he bites you.

If toys don't work, you can use an anti-biting spray. Spray it on the things you don't want get chewed on and once your pup tastes the bad flavor, they are less likely to bite again.

There's this so called indestructible chew toy (with a guarantee, never used it but many people are worshiping it lol) if your pup is a death machinehttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0042JJB82/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B0042JJB82&linkCode=as2&tag=territerri-20&linkId=R63I4QQQKB7BCLBS


EDIT: If you can't have these things delivered, you can buy those rope toys from the pet store or a supermarket in the pet sections. They're pretty good if you buy those tight and thick ones. Squeaky toys are really good too. Wipe some peanut butter on them if your pup doesn't seem interested and reward good behavior.


I also found ice cubes or iced toys really good too. The coldness soothes the gums and helps your pup.
You can get rawhide (get the big ones) but you need to supervise your pup when does chew on it because there are certain cons this https://www.dogingtonpost.com/rawhide-good-bad-ugly/


Good luck!

u/tokisushi · 1 pointr/Dogtraining

Buying a clicker would probably be better - having a loud clear sound is ideal - pen clicks are not that loud. Pens are great for young puppies or dogs afraid of a clicker, but if that is not a problem, a classic box style clicker is really cheap and really hard to confuse in their environment. Dogs are generally pretty good at determining what is a mark and what isn't but if you are around people who click pens around your dog a lot it COULD weaken the signal.

A clicker is also going to be loud enough to hear outside or in noisy environments (like training class). Many obedience school will give free clickers to students if you choose a school that uses positive reinforcement/clickers 8)

The leash i wish i'd known about and used, which i now is the Halti Training lead. You can adjust how you want it, it's very versatile, long but it's for training so you hold in your right hand and walk dog on left side.

Also great if you have two dogs, i can wrap one round my waist and attach the other to both dogs and walk handsfree so i can lure, reward more easily.

[this](http://www.amazon.com/Earth-Therapeutics-Hydro-Exfoliating-Gloves/dp/B00BS7AB08] is what I mentioned. You may be able to find them cheaper but it's the first link I saw.

Install something like this.

Problem solved.

What's stopping anybody from looking in your windows, right now? Or sneaking in while you're away and installing hidden wireless cameras to spy on you?

What about installing backdoor trojans on your pc and hijacking your web cam?

I'm sorry to hear about your experience.

I for one have a hard time snapping my fingers consistently. Jangling keys or a dog clicker make an excellent tool for safe-wording when gagged.

u/guess_twat · 1 pointr/LittleRock

I have dogs in a wooden fence and they kept digging out. I spend days and days of filling the holes with concrete, burying boards and doing everything I could to keep them in. I finally got an underground fence, just stapled the wire around the bottom of the wood fence and it has worked to perfection. I would highly recommend if you have dogs that dig out regularly.

> I've tried fetch, and sure, he'll chase the ball, pick it up, and then run right past me with it.

Try playing fetch while he's on leash. I picked up a super cheap 50' lead on Amazon for $12 (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Y909RG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). Having him leashed while teaching him how to fetch worked wonders. If he runs past you can gently step on it and then as a bonus reel him in which serves as additional recall training.

My pup's around the same age, just turned 6 months, and now I can play fetch with him off leash in the yard. He doesn't always come back (still a work in progress) so I bring a coffee out with me and just sit and wait. After a minute or two he gets bored of the "keep away" game and brings the ball back to throw it again.

Stick with it! It sounds like you're on the right track with everything. 6 months is a really frustrating time. They start to hit puberty and just get sort of stupid and forget all the rules they just learned.

You're not wrong but you could be nicer about it.

OP, be very careful with those relays. Don't leave whatever circuit you are making unattended, or consider using something safer like this: https://www.amazon.com/POWERSWITCHTAIL-COM-PowerSwitch-Tail-II/dp/B00B888VHM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1479919667&sr=8-1&keywords=power+switch+tail#customerReviews

Get a training clicker. Started when my cat was young, now it doesn't like treats but will still come when I use the clicker.

Cheap and cheerful, I also have the shrimp ones which do not taste like shrimp at all but if you're into burning fiery hell broth then they're a good choice.

u/samlikesturtlez · 1 pointr/raspberry_pi

It can be done.

To turn a fan on and off, use a relay. This allows the low voltage that the Pi can produce to control an electromagnetic switch that controls a much higher voltage, which the fan works off of. I assume you mean a 115V or 230V desk fan that plugs into the wall. (a relay board will work with DC-driven fans as well, and be safer with lower DC voltages.) If you haven't worked with exposed line-level voltages or aren't comfortable doing so again, use something like this:

Bitter Yuck spray. You won't like it either, but it should help.

Anything like this should help.

u/kidabear0414 · 1 pointr/CatAdvice

I would get an indoor cat grass planter like this one https://www.amazon.com/Catit-Senses-2-0-Cat-Grass/dp/B015J4I51M grass is actually very good for cats digestion. As for the bolting, I know of people who have had success with this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000A76ZYS/?cv_ct_id=amzn1.idea.ERFFU9PN21D&cv_ct_pg=storefront&cv_ct_wn=aip-storefront&ref=exp_cov_myfosterkittens_dp_vv_d its like an electric fence for dogs but the barrier is the doorway.

u/[deleted] · 1 pointr/funny

Good luck with breaking him of that! I've tried all sorts of commercial bittering agents from petco, etc., on my cabling and created some of my own. The only thing I've tried that seems to work is Dave's Insanity Not Sauce. My cat won't lick or chew anything I've painted with Dave's, but that only lasts about a week. It's incredible hot! Don't use it as a condiment!!! Dave's Insanity is strictly an ingredient.

If all of the vulnerable cabling is in one spot, you might be able to use a PetSafe Pawz Away Indoor Pet Barrier for a month or so to break the cat of even investigating the area with the cabling. We used that system to break one of our cats from the habit of pawing our bedroom door at 3 in the morning when she wanted company and wouldn't settle for just annoying the other cat.

The base station generates a field with an oval footprint and has a setting that lets you adjust the size of the field. The collar starts beeping when the cat first enters the field and then generates a shock if the cat gets closer. The shock isn't bad, just startling to the cat. It's about like getting a good static shock.

My cat got one shock and then began turning around when the beeps started. The door pawing stopped.

The simplest (and possibly safest) answer is to get one of these PowerSwitch Tail II. It has a few screw terminals that you can wire directly to your arduino.

If you want something more complex and capable, I would look up relays. Just be aware that you are dealing with wall circuits could be dangerous.

u/rcrracer · 1 pointr/HVAC

Fan and a cheap duct. Blower and a duct.

u/GhostInTheBlockchain · 1 pointr/DogecoinDefenseForce

Before my electric bill came today I was thinking of the following semi-off grid setup:


-----[solar system]-----

solar panel(s)

charge controller

battery(s)


-----[mining rig]-----

Raspberry Pi

Zeusminer Blizzard


-----[electrical stuff]-----

Samlex power supply


PowerSwitch Tail II relay


Raspberry Pi lamp timer circuit


buck converter



-----[The Plan]-----

Plug the Samlex into the PowerSwitch-Tail and PowerSwitch-Tail into wall. Hook the solar system battery up to the Samlex's battery backup terminals. Hook the Blizzard and Raspberry Pi up to the Samlex's 12v output (use buck converter to step the 12v down to 5v for the Pi). Finally, use a cron job on the Raspberry Pi to control the PowerSwitch-Tail. In the morning the Pi would use the 'lamp timer' circuit to open the PowerSwitch-Tail causing the Samlex to draw power from the solar system battery. During the night the Pi would close the PowerSwitch-Tail causing the Samlex to draw power from the grid. The Pi would also restart cgminer to mine to different addresses depending on which power source was being used. I would setup the cron job based on the capacity of the solar system. More panels and batteries would mean the system would run longer off of the solar system before switching back over to grid power. I think it would have worked, but not sure. I'm pretty new at this stuff.

Thank you! My boy loves the tunnel, if I leave it out he will lay in there and just go back and forth on his own. He's a year and a half old and has always been pretty brave about things. I did throw a treat in there originally, and for his first time I used the stakes and attached it to the grass, that way it wouldn't move a lot on its own when he went through or if there was a big gust of wind 🤗 Same here he just loves games, and totally thrives on this stuff.

Here is the tunnel I bought, seems really durable and comes with the stakes 😁 Good luck!

Is the couch thing. There are other sizes and prices on Amazon.

The acrylic is harder because I'm guessing you don't have a way to cut a sheet of the stuff. You could get it custom but that would be super expensive.

I just bought four clickers so I'd always have one easily available and all the clickers would have consistent sound

Consider using a Powerswitch tail 2 to safely take care of the high voltage work. It's rated for 15A resistive loads, so you shouldn't normally be switching your 12A inductive load with it. But as a power enabling circuit it should be adequate.

Stay away from those Chinese relay boards unless you know what you are doing.

u/yeltsinfugui · 1 pointr/wicked_edge

from what you've described, looks like ingrown hairs. I suffer from the same. if you have curly neck hair sometimes the hairs grow out and then curl back under the skin. or if the hair is cut short enough, it curls before it even protrudes from the skin. try not to shave too close on your neck, and especially in the areas where you tend to get ingrowns (I get them in very specific spots) try not to pull your skin to get extra close. as long as you're presentable, you're fine.

another thing that helped me is using a kese or an exfoliating glove. something like these:

https://www.amazon.com/Kelebek-Turkish-Bathstore-Kese-Exfoliating/dp/B00DSVY57W

https://www.amazon.com/Earth-Therapeutics-Hydro-Exfoliating-Gloves/dp/B00BS7AB08

I use these in the shower before and after shaving (I shower before shaving, then at night before bed when showering, I use the glove/kese again on my neck). I guess I could have said I use it every time I shower :). it helps to keep my pores open and prevents the hair from curling back in under the skin.

what other people have said is also helpful (don't shave ATG, moisturize, try different blades, low pressure on razor, shower before shaving, mapping, etc)

Not really what you asked, but I got one of these to keep the dogs off our sofa. We have the dogs trained to not get on the sofa without permission when we're home, but when we're gone all bets are off. The sofa scram works, but you do have to remember to put it on the sofa.

u/SPITFIREJAKE16 · 1 pointr/dogs

I just did a bit of searching and this might be what ur looking for? It is below 250 and it’s easy to set up, they’re all the same and all at the same price so I’d say it’ll work well

I'm seconding the "no chew spray".

Get some gummy candies and douse them in Bitter Yuck!

I bought this and it makes things SO much easier - Paw Lifestyles – Dog Treat Training Pouch . Holds my phone, treats poop bags and keys. If it's hot out I carry a bottle of water in my hand and can stuff it in the treat pouch if I need that hand for something.

SportDOG SDF-100A Invisible Fence System - $100

This is super easy to install yourself. 500 feet of wire and 75 flags are unused in the box. Lowe's & Home Depot sell wire and additional flags for cheap, should you need it. I installed this thing, tested it, and ended up rebuilding my fence before I bothered putting it on my dog to teach him how it works. If needed, you can pay me to install it or help you install it.

I could use a Men's XL hybrid bike, so let me know if you think you might have something to trade.

u/Frostypooky · 1 pointr/homeowners

I've brought this up in past threads regarding dog barking. I purchased this device https://www.amazon.com/Sunbeam-Sonic-Bark-Control-Device/dp/B00PINYA82/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1549288116&sr=8-4&keywords=sonic+dog+egg for my own dog due to her barking at the slightest sound of someone outside when we lived in an apt. When you start to hear them, just walk it outside and have it pointed towards there house. Should quiet them up. You obviously don't want to leave it out and on all the time as you want it to be used as a learned response to their barking, and not going off because of a loud car, motorcycle, etc..

u/Captain-Cuddles · -1 pointsr/Dogtraining

Please don't use any e-collars, nine times out of ten they are misused and only confuse the dog and serve to make the issue worse.

Dog Runs are secure, safe, and cheap to replace when they rust or become weak. This would be a great temporary solution while you work on come when called training.

I never, ever recommend a dog be off leash in an area that is not contained by some sort of physical boundary. That being said, I understand that plenty of people do this and it's a fairly common practice. To work on come when you'll want a long leash and two people. One person stands the length of the leash from the other and you both take turns calling the dog and giving lots of praise. Use treats, but give them out randomly. If you teach your dog they get a treat when they come they may not come if they see you don't have treats (like in an emergency situation). The other thing is never play 'chase' with your dog. It's fun. The dog loves it. You probably love it. Everyone loves it. But in that situation where you really need your dog to come right away they may not be able to tell the difference and think you're playing a game.

Use the dog run to confine your dog to a physical boundary for the time being while you train them on come when called. For added challenge you can start adding in distractions once they get really good, like having a third person toss a tennis ball in front of them or placing favorite toys along the path to you.

u/Feasoron · -1 pointsr/dogs

We had the exact same problems. We got this small shock collar from amazon . It's just enough shock to deter a dog, not enough to hurt them and the base of it is about the size of a smoke detector. After two shocks, our dog gives the cat food and litter box a good 2-3 foot berth and we've had no more problems.
