Why aren't you out fighting the war against feral pigs?
Mmmmm... Wild pork....
Because they haven't made it this far north yet.

I was debating taking dogs from the shelter and teaching some old mongrels new tricks to make them boar hunters. But I'm seriously conflicted on the idea. On one hand I'm saving dogs that would be euthanized (I plan on taking undesirable dogs so long as they have drive) and I would be helping indirectly get rid of feral hogs. However, there is a decent chance the dogs could get severely hurt and I highly doubt shelters would want me to adopt their dogs just to put them in danger and inhumanely kill an intelligent animal
In about 2 weeks im going to get an american eskimo dog. Ive looked into how much exercise itll need and and how they behave/act. Anything important i should know?
>>2427180
You fucked up.
>>2427184
American Eskimo dogs are cool for small dogs IMO.
FACT
Big dogs are superior to little dogs in every way
>extra big disgusting turds
>hog too much space in bed
>can't take them on an airplane
>can't sneak them into places that don't allow dogs
>>2426860
I honestly can't think of a single way in which they are superior.
Little dogs are for girls, big doggos are for men.

He's cute until he rips your face off, bites your hands off and tears your balls off.
He is cute until he bashes your head in, steals your wallet and takes your car.

They were never cute in the first place.

You're pretty cute.

whats a good beginner salt tank? ive considered it for a while but seems like a ton of work
>>2425141
My first salt tank was my old betta tank (5 gallons). I kept a clown fish pair and a hermit crab in it for two years before moving them into a bigger tank.
>>2425141
It's not so bad. For me easy corals and clownfish was very easy. Didn't take much work. RO water is a must though. I'm eventually moving onto a FOWLR tank.

Is Little Critter a porcupine?
I always thought he was a hamster.
>>2431157
That or a guinea pig.
He's obviously a Critter.
Have you ever befriended a wild animal /an/?
>>2430960
I befriended your mom
I kept feeding this one doe. Got to the point where I could yank her tongue out her head and she didn't mind. If that's not trust I don't understand.
Nah. Although if you sit still for a long enough time wild animals sometimes decide you're no threat and get much closer to you than they would otherwise. I do wildlife photo as a hobby and that's the main trick; find where animals hang out, sit still and preferably downwind for a few hours. Some people use camoflage duck blinds and things like that but i haven't found those to be strictly necessary.
Hi, /an/
So the company I work at owns a salt water fish tank and we had been having some troubles with the tank (fish dying, too much algae growth, etc)
Well we got the tank under control. It's all clean, the chemicals are at optimum levels and no fish have died in months. So we're on the right course now.
Now they want to add more fish. My boss likes clown fish and she wants to add five. Do any of you anons know about these fish and about fish tanks and could help me out? Is five ok? If not, what would be a safe number for clown fish?
I don't believe there is anything in the tank that would be hostile to clown fish.
>>2430791
>what would be a safe number for clown fish?
How big is the tank? Under most circumstances, the safe number is two; they're territorial little things.
>>2430799
48'' x 18'' x 19''

>no fish have died in months
>Humans think this is success
There is literally no excuse for shit like this to ever happen.
What is the deal with Sit Means Sit Dog training? The difference in the behavior of the dogs from just one week boarding is insane. They go from out of control to being cool, calm, and collected. They briefly touch upon a collar they use to get the dogs attention.
Are they basically just destroying the dogs will power or something? I'm specifically looking at the Massachusetts location. They have insanely good facebook reviews. But what's the catch? Are they beating these dogs and people don't see?

I currently have a lab pointer mix whoI have taught to sit, paw, stay, and a couple other commands around the house. But I can't take him out in public or he just pulls like crazy and loses his shit. The program is starting to look tempting, should you guys talk me out of this?

ARE THEY LYING TO ME IN THIS VIDEO ANONS
I looked at nothing of theirs but more than half of dogs can be trained to chill the fuck out.
They're just dumb puppies for their entire life. You have to adjust them to situations and let them know what is and isn't ok for you and them. Such as if the dog is nervous and scared in one, you teach them how to be comfortable. If they're hyper and over stimulated as fuck you teach them remaining calm will let them get what they want and have a good time. If they act nice around other doggos it means they get to play with other dogs more.
A dog who goes nuts every time they hear something outside, that dog is stressing itself out by being overly territorial, so teaching them to chill the fuck out is healthy for them, you and anyone who enters your home. Dogs need to be molded into home and society just like autists. If you just throw them into the wild streets then they ruin everything.
>>2430741
I understand that anon, but I need help understanding how to get my dog to adjust to those situations. So I am checking to see if anyone has experience with this company or how they are actually teaching the dogs.
This is my first time using 4chan I look on here occasionally but never commented I was getting food when I noticed a spider I would've ignored it but when I looked at it it was a black widow I went to get my phone but when I came back it was gone it looks just like in the pic but without the red marking I poked around with a cane that my father uses but nothing came out I'm scared and hungry but it was right wear my food was and I don't want to get bitten pls help.
If it didn't have the red markings it was probably a false black widow spider. Was it more brownish? Then it was a false. If it was pitch black like that, though, can't entirely rule it out.
Better burn your house down just to be safe
Poke around with your dick. If you're lucky you'll get a big black cock out of it.
It was pitch black but I did try blowing on it to move it toward the light I think I saw some brown but not sure might have just been reflections my house has brown tiling all through my kitchen dining room and into the pantry though it was around 8 feet off the ground so maybe not.
Can someone tell me what this is? I'm in the Southeast US.
