I don’t remember where I got this, I just jotted it down in my notes.

Couldn’t resist stating he’s a former rally driver.

I don’t know how well this will work for more than one dog, but searching for stuff has worked very well for me. Using their sense of smell makes them expend a lot of energy.

Initially, the “stuff” will be treats, of course, but that’s the part where it might be tricky for two or more dogs. You don’t want them to fight for the treat.

Maybe take turns at first?

Anyway, you let your dog have a sniff of the treat and then tell your dog to stay (close a door if they don’t know how to stay very well) and go hide a treat. Come back and tell him to search. If he doesn’t understand at first, call him towards the hiding place. He’ll catch on quickly.

The goal is to make them smell, and not just search with their eyes. This might take a few tries or maybe a couple of weeks. Keep trying creative hiding spots so that they’re easily reachable but not easily spotted (visually).

You might find that they’ll try to follow your scent (where you’ve been) instead of the scent of the treat. That’s good initially, but later you might want to try walking around elsewhere to throw them off.

As they progress, give them something else to sniff and hide. Follow him close as he searches and as soon as he finds the object, give him the treat. I suppose that at this point, you can have both dogs searching at the same time and treat them both regardless of which one found it.

The final step of this hide-and-seek game is to have them “signal” you when they find it. I believe the most common way is just to sit close to the thing you hid and look at you.

As you can see, I laid down several steps. Each adds more mental stimulation to the game, which is also rewarding to dogs.

I mean… you can’t finish farther down than p20, but that’s not all that can go wrong. ;)

Beware that F1tv doesn’t yet show the updated race time.

Also, this is doc 48 detailing the new schedule:

Yeah… my plan pays absolutely no heed to the economics of it. 😅 I just want to see more races, and let someone else figure out the money. Heh.

Anyway, the article does mention that the main hurdle for a rookie sprint would be economical. Glad to read that it’s being seriously considered.

I’ve wondered for some time if it would be worth having rookies racing with 2-year-old cars in parallel. Perhaps during the weekends where there’s no F1 race.

Nono... There was no mistake there.

Before the Clone Wars, there were lots of Jedi everywhere in the Galaxy, and only a couple of Sith.

Anakin did bring balance.

Initial release of xorg was 2004

Yeah, but XOrg was forked from XFree86.

Are memes allowed here?

Anyway, this is not a new one. I'm sure I'd seen this before, but I received it again today and it made me chuckle.

The monthly drop has arrived…

Kultists! It is time for the monthly release and today we have a brand new Horror Starter for you.

A Ghost Story was written for those who enjoy tales about the deathless, and what better time of the year to tell such stories than Halloween?

I don’t want to rain on your parade, but this community is for tabletop RPGs.

Best of luck, though

I don’t know what’s worse: The whole anti same-sex marriage deal or inventing Javascript.

Probably Javascript…

Heh. Made me smile.

Here, have an upvote! ;)
