Got finally accepted into my chosen Grad School and I'm so excited to start! 🥳

What are your tips or things you wish you knew before starting grad school? 📖

Man unintentionally teaches his Corgi sign language! 😊 Follow me for more smart puppers!

A dog's primary language is body language, so things like hand signals and sign language they'll learn even faster than verbal cues!

People really underestimate their pet dogs. I taught my dogs what 'excuse me' means by just saying it and nudging them out of the way. Now I don't have to worry about them getting underfoot when I'm holding a hot pan- I say 'excuse me' and they move. There's a hand gesture I use when I'm done giving them treats so they know there's no point begging for anything else.

They even know what 'accident' and 'I'm sorry' means. Anyone who has ever accidentally stepped on their dog's tail or done something else that hurts or scares them, and laments how they can't tell their dogs they didn't mean it?

You can. Literally, any time it happens, say that you're sorry and it was an accident while showering them with affection. If you have more than one dog you'll see they do that kind of thing when they accidentally hurt each other. If you act the same way and say the same words every time something happens, they'll learn what the word means. Hell, I accidentally taught my dogs to act really gentle and not get too close when they're around puppies and infants (or any animal delicate and small) just by always going 'that's a baby' very seriously and firmly any time they were around one.

My programming exam didn’t do me well. Well, I hope I still pass. Currently in the middle of my exam season and realized I don’t care enough for myself during it. I need to do better.
