OMG I got a dog...

I crate my dogs when I am away until they are around 2 (depending on the sex and how fast they mature). I'd keep her crated for at least a month then leave her out for small increments and she how she does. When I had a boxer I remember very vividly the first time he was left out alone. I returned home and he had jumped on the counter, grabbed a pistol, and was chewing on the frame when I got home.

hahahaha, you got a dog!?!?!!! :lol:

Thats awesome that you rescued one, really, and she looks cute. Crate her, she will love the crate after a few mornings and you don't have to worry about her tearing stuff up. My dog just goes into his crate on his own when I'm pouring my travel mug of coffee (he knows its time). Congrats

Good for you going with a rescue dog. You saved its life.

We are firm believers in crating, but we kind of cheat. Every time we close the door on her in her crate she gets a small treat. Nothing big but something to reward her and reinforce the idea that the crate is a good place. She puts herself to bed at night, if we turn off the TV during the day she goes in on her own assuming we are about to leave, and she will even go in sometimes just to lay down.

If we have to be out for more than 4 hours however we will often corral her in the kitchen with some toys and one of her beds. I don't ever want her to spend more than half of any 24 hour period in her crate so the kitchen is a good alternative.

Welcome to the dark side MPF :D .....just keep in mind, have a lot of treats around....my dogs personal favorites are Pup-peroni, be prepared for a lot of face licking, and all in all general love...

On another note, unless you want Izzy to be a permanent guest in your bed, discourage her now from being able to get on anytime she wants.....had to learn the hardway and now I can't get one of the dogs to get off the bed no matter what I do, she thinks she owns the place :unsure:

      Trading Down Could be a Gold Mine in This Draft!!

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      This is why it's probably going to be hard to trade down. This draft is fairly light on top tier talent but pretty deep in talent of that next tier down. I don't think there's going to be a lot of teams clamoring to move up and numerous teams might be entertaining moving down. Not a good market to trade down if that's the case.

      And if they can't find a reasonable trade down (I think we would need a 2nd rounder this year bare minimum to make any trade down worth it). I would definitely expect Dan to trade UP for an EDGE or LB in the top half of R2. Just makes too much sense. We also have a plethora of mid round picks to use as ammo.

      I don't mean to make this a mock draft thread particularly,  but every time I do a mock I have been investigating the talent that goes off the board between picks 8 and our low 2nd rounder pick 57. There is a gargantuan amount of talent still left on the board in the top half of the 2nd round every time I do one. Losing our original 2nd round pick to the Bears as the last pick of the Bryce trade stings badly .  I'm particularly looking at elite players like Carson Schwesinger (LB), Luther Burden (WR), Matthew Golden (WR), Maxwell Hairston (CB) , Nick Scourton , Landon Jackson, Donavan Ezeraku (all DEs/OLBs) . The sweet spot in this draft really feels like pick 15 to 40 - ish. This is why the Bears should be making bank with this draft. I don't know how realistic a trade down is from 8, but if we could pick up any teams higher 2nd rounder and still grab their 1st? We'd be cooking with gas man.  Say for example we get Tet McMillan at pick 8, if you wait all the way to 57 you stand the chance of not getting any impact pass rushers in this draft. And I don't think this team can afford that.  I'd personally love for them to take a break from drafting wrs in R1 or R2 (i think we've taken one in the top 2 rounds in the majority of the past few years), and stick to repairing the nfls worse defense in history (in terms of total points against iirc, or was it yards? Also included my most recent mock as an example . Don't put too much into the  late round selections lol
