Happy Thanksgiving from us pups at Mystic 🦃

11/27/2024

Ten years ago here at Mystic, most of the pups and our dear friend Vince have moved on. We still have a few pups, Luna swissy is with us this weekend, fun to see her when she was so young.

So many memories 🐶❤️🐶

All dogs and kitties are safe and sound from the storm. Power is on, buildings and fence lines secure. Feeling very blessed and fortunate.

Hope everybody is doing well with limited damage from the storm.

The storm is here and so far, all is good. We heated up the dog and cat areas in case the power goes out tonight, so they will be nice and warm. There was no wind when we did evening potty break, but now it's starting to pick up. Definitely a change in air pressure.

The ben howard has trees down so I will have to see how driving will be tomorrow before anybody can get here.

•Pet your dog, all the time
•Talk to your dog, all the time
•Allow your dog to follow you, all the time
•Allow your dog to be on your lap or laying on your feet, all the time
•Pet, soothe, comfort your dog when it whines or barks for attention...or is simply anxious
•Allow your dog to demand affection/interactions
•Be emotionally dependent on your dog to the point that unhealthy dependency and interactions are no longer noticed
•Allow your dog to do whatever it wants, whenever it wants—aka, provide no structure, rules, or accountability
•Foster an environment of chaos, stress, and anxiety
•Refuse to train and pattern calmness
•Refuse to crate train your dog
•Refuse to correct your dog when inappropriate behavior occurs
•Refuse to train your dog how to be independent/alone by using a “Place” command, “Downstay, and/or “away” time in the crate
•Let your dog out of the crate when it whines or barks
•Avoid training or anything that makes your dog temporarily uncomfortable or unhappy—in other words, cater to your dog’s every desire/need, designing your life around your dog, rather than having your dog fit into yours
•And many, many more...

Basically, baby, soothe, allow, enable, disable, lean on, omit teaching necessary life skills, prioritize what feels good for you rather than what does good for your dog, and through this master plan of leadership-free chaos, and systematic cultivation of creating a toxic dependency between dog and human...you’ll ensure that when you leave, your dog will be a true emotional mess, because you haven’t prepared them to be calm, obedient, strong, resilient, robust, independent, and alone.

So you thought you were just getting a fun puppy...

“I should have researched the Belgian Malinois before getting one. They are too smart for me.”

Great video to watch...
