My New puppy!

Wow I forgot how time consuming these gorgeous things are. When we got our first dog she was virtually house trained so it didn't seem as hard, plus she was naturally quite good, wasn't a chewer at all so from what I can remember (with it being 5 years ago) It was quite a breeze.
Minnie However our new pup is a little in the opposite direction. She's very clever, toilet trained, she won't go over thresholds (doors) which is amazing and she's learning tricks really well....she's just a little too crazy for our other dog which is causing little problems. So Apparently getting same sex dogs is a bad idea, as they find it very hard to get along. Saying that however we are seeing improvement as the days go on between the two doggies, which is heart warming and great to witness the progress especially as our first dog Maisie as hasn't really socialised with other dogs, so I can see why this is really hard for her. The Key is to keep everything positive and only interrupt the play fighting if necessary. Maisie needs to mother her and put her in her place and this is normal behaviour. 
For what us humans see as unreasonable behaviour or when we can recognise to tolerate someone we don't like, Dogs cannot see these reasonings and even with lovely temperaments instincts will kick in. They literally have to learn how to socialise, which is tough. There's growling, Stealing each others chews, eating each others food, Very tough for Maisie as for 5 years everything has been just hers. I really hope that they can be best buds in the end! Have you got any Tips and Tricks for helping them get along?

Finding a career to enjoy.

As a young person in life, in this generation, there're so many different routes and opportunities out there that it is quite overwhelming for young adults like me to find the right path to follow. Now my view on a career may be different to many others, but I want a career that I'm truly going to enjoy doing whilst still living an exciting life. I don't just want a job that I need to do the pay the bills and my happiness comes second. But how do I find this? At the moment I'm working part-time as a host/waitress in a restaurant but whilst it's good pay, working for someone else, for a company isn't my passion..Just isn't what I want to do for the rest of my life. I want to live life and enjoy it, explore everything in this beautiful world. I hate the fact that we're given this one opportunity of life and we have to spend it in some cases working our arses off for so little. Why are we restricted by money which is literally paper and bits of metal? Why does this have to define our limitations in life. I've been dancing since I was little and the enjoyment it gives me is really satisfying. After high school, I decided to take my dance training further, so I went to study at a vocational college doing dance and musical theatre. Unfortunately I had to pull out after my 2nd year due to injuries on both of my knees. I have been advised by my doctor to change careers as my anatomy of my body isn't suited to this lifestyle. This was devastating news as I felt so useless and like a failure to my own life. But I guess it could also be a little blessing in disguise, as the career is very unstable and how you can be treated in the industry can be quite upsetting too, your jobs are decided on the way you look, your size, your alignment, all the unnecessary personal things like that. Which for me and my insecurities wouldn't bring me happiness. So what now? I feel lost and pressured into finding a stable highly paid job, with no further qualifications as of yet than GCSE's, there's little chance I can get that sort of pay. I wanted to right this post just incase anyone else out there is feeling the same way. Or have been through the same thing and could give me some advice? At the moment I'm exploring many options of self employment creating and selling my own products, such as personalised candles, wine glasses and anything else I can think of with the help of my mothers business ( personalised printing ). I'll find my perfect career one day, I just hope it's sooner rather than later!
