Birthday Tack Shopping Spree And Should I Buy This For My New Horse? Day 289 (10/20/20) 

Having a dog that pees on men is one way to keep them away from Gabby 🤣🤣🤣

Say "NO!" to the prong collar. Prong collars are short cut but are fear-based. Instead, try positive training to train her how to walk nicely, or a gentle leader (which is kind of like a halter for dogs). Anyway, Happy Birthday Sophie!

I hope this doesn’t come out as harsh but gabby does not need a choke collar for molly those things are disgusting and are just like a harsh bit if she works more on commands and walking on a harness molly will pull less she a puppy she’s gonna be curious but she shouldn’t resort to harmful means to try and get her to stop. I love you guys so much and can’t wait to see more of your journey!

OMG I am 11 too and my name is Sophia 💖 Also tysm for liking my last comment 💖 The tack hauls are my fav vids 💖 Happy Birthday 🎂 Tysm for all of the likes ❤

Dear Laura, This is just my opinion. Daisy may be getting super bloated becuase you may be over loading her with food. You see your stomach is small and when you give her, her meals she probably eats it really fast. When dogs or even humans eat too fast there stomachs feel overloading and make you feel not good. Puppies and dogs in general do not have the self control to stop eating, like we do. So I think that small, spaced out meals will be the best... Also my dog had this problem and I also found that a slow feeder really helped too! I also know that Dalmatians are known to have sensitive stomachs... I hope this can help becuase Daisy is such a cute puppy! Love you guys :)

HAPPY 11th BIRTHDAY SOPHIE!!!!🥳🎉 I hope you have an amazing birthday and have lots of fun with your new puppy!🤍

I have to confess, I sang happy birthday to Sophie while u guys where singing too.

You’re right, Laura. A prong collar is like using a harsh bit. Take a moment to think about why prong collars work - the prongs dig into the dog’s neck causing discomfort. The neck is a very sensitive area on a dog. Using discomfort is not training your dog. It’s a bandaid that you can put on a training issue.. just like how you can use a harsher bit to mask a training issue. Gabby, you can’t just look at someone online who uses a piece of equipment on their animal and assume that it’s perfectly fine just because they said so. I suggest doing legitimate research to form your opinion. Don’t listen to me, the other commenters, or some guy you saw on tiktok who uses one. Do research so that you can be the best owner you can be for your dog. I hope I didn’t come off as rude in this. I love the daybyday family and only want the best for you guys ❤️ Aside from that, I want to wish Sophie a very happy birthday!! I hope you had a wonderful day. You certainly deserve it

Happy birthday Sophie! Also I would highly recommend getting her Baer tested. Doesn’t matter if parents have full hearing or not, it all comes down to their genetics and what they can pass down. My Dalmatian has full hearing but one of her litter mates has bilateral hearing. Both parents had full hearing. It’s very important to get the test because if she is deaf, you can support and train her a certain way. I know people with deaf dogs have taught commands through sign language too. My dal is a crazy pup, very energetic and very playful. Tbh she even has more energy than my border collie 😅

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOPHIE!!! I hope you have an amazing day and your birthday wish comes true! Daisy is so lucky to have you as a mom!!!

Collers with prongs are actually safer than normal collers. They even out the pressure and it actually doesnt't hurt them, normal collers only pull on the front of their neck and can hurt their trachea, and when fitted properly they are designed to be the most humane way to train.

HAPPY 11TH BIRTHDAY SOPHIE!earlier today Sophie's 8th birthday video came up 🥺 I said I was getting a gypsy....I want a buckskin AQH😂 I want to continue in western working!Always have loved the cowgirl style, Laura you should get a lead rope so your ready!just don't buy everything

Happy birthday Sophie! You're such a sweet and amazing girl, hope you had a great day! 💕🎂

Happy birthday Sophia! Happy 11th. Keep shining and don’t let people judge u, you’re a boss.🥰😎💜

I agree with some of the people in the comments about Gabby being sassy, but she is a teenage what do you expect! Let Gabby be Gabby, when she grows out of it she might still be a little sassy but still! She probably never means it, she’s just really good at correcting people😂 love you guys🏇🏽🐎❤️👑💖

Happy birthday sophie ! My puppy is a Pekingese pom mix and he is also super calm and not very playful. It could just be her personality, but if you find yourself disagreeing with your vet there is no shame in a second opinion! Our pets heath always comes first!!

I highly recommend reading up on the benefits of raw food vs kibble. My trainer recommended I try it and it's helped my dog so much was numerous issues. It causes them to bloat less, makes their poops smaller and firmer, makes their breath less stinky, and can prevent so many health problems down the road. Just the other day I met a lady with a 17 year old Border Collie and she said that she fed him raw and that he's never had any problems. It's definitely worth a shot to try! They also enjoy their food so much more. Dogs love variety in their food as much as we do!

My dog is just like Molly! She is submissive, and will bark when people come into the house, but my dog will also bark at squirrels or she'll just bark. We are really working on that. It can kinda get annoying especially during distance learning. So, we'll get there.... hopefully. Also, Happy Birthday Sophie! It is funny to think that u guys are making another video right now, because they are posted a day later. Anyway, have a good day!

I’m not sure what it was you didn’t like about what the vet said, however in my view, it’s always ok to question, express an opinion etc, as there’s no reason why it can’t be done politely. For me there’s a difference between just not liking what someone else says, because you don’t agree for example, and even the experts aren’t always right. Based on what you said and the vet and seeing Daisy in the pet store, she doesn’t seem to react to sounds as much as I would have thought a puppy would, it’s obviously different if she can see you, feel vibrations etc, so it might be worth getting her hearing properly tested, then at least you know for sure and it will then help Sophia with how she needs to train and keep her safe 😊👍 I wonder if feeding her less, but more frequently might work for a bit, unless you’ve been able to source a different food for her that’s suitable, nobody wants a windy dog 🐶😲 I hope you had a wonderful Birthday Sophia and enjoyed your cake 😊

If you want something good for training get a harness that hooks in front on the dog. Or get a shock collar that has the sound and vibrate controls as well. You don’t have to use the shock. I used this for training my dog to stay in the yard. I also have a friend who has a deaf dog and uses the vibrate so he knows to come back to her when she’s calling him. So if Daisy does turn out to be deaf in the future that’s an option for her.

I love spending birthdays with the family, daisy is so cute.

Happy birthday Sophie That ice cream cake looks sooo good daisy is so lucky to have you as an owner and you and fin have really started working together lately I hope you still have a great birthday even in a pandemic

1000000% buy it for your new horse!!! Even if you dont end up getting the horse it would be good to have a lead rope! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOFIE 🎂 🥳!!!

Happy birthday Miss Sophie!! You have come sooo far in your riding and can’t wait to see the rest of your journey!

Omg daisy is so adorable when she sleeping I just wanna snuggle with her 😄 Happy Birthday Sophie 🎂

Happy birthday Sophie. I hope your day is as special as you are xxx

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOPHIE YOU ARE AMAZINGGGGGG! LOVE YOU GUYS

Hi guys I am really excited because next Friday my horse is finally coming home and I will get to ride him and I got to go tack shopping and buy all kinds of things for him so I can’t wait to start jumping him but happy birthday Sophie I am 11 too I will be turning 12 this year but Sophie you are so amazing you have grown so much and you are beautiful and you and Finn have come so far and grown together you have grown so much as a rider I love you guys so much!!!!!💖❤️❣️💞🍀

do not use prong collars, they work by digging into the dog's neck.

Happy birthday to you happy birthday to you happy birthday dear Sophie happy birthday to you!!!!!💗😁Sophie you have came so far in horse riding I’m so proud of you every day I hope you have an amazing birthday lots of love from Molly in the uk 💗

Happy birthday Sophie, I hope you had the best day ever!

Happy birthday Sophie!! Finn will definitely be a pretty boy for sure, love you guys!!!❤️💕💗💖

I love rolling ball spurs. For a horse like Chino who easily gets on the forhand, if you just move your heal up and down his side, it can make a horse really lift up with their back

omg- HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOPH! hope its so amazing and i am so proud of you. you and gabby are my role models!

Happy birthday Sophie! And I’m glad you got the new bridle💗🥳

I love Sophie's new mask! It's so pretty!

Hope you had a very Happy Birthday Sophie! Daisy is so cute, looks like she is getting so much bigger already! Advice for Gabby, if Molly is pulling I would get her a gentle leader it goes around their nose and it teaches them not to pull. I have read online about the chain collars that they can choke on them and they even catch on fire if they get to hot. Molly is very beautiful!

Yayyyy! Happy birthday soph your such a big part of this channel ❤️👍🏻

Happy Birthday Sophie you are amazing and you inspire so many people!

If Gabby is looking for a new type of collar for Molly, try a martingale collar. It's basically part chain and part regular collar. The chain loosens and tightens as the dog pulls, but the release is instant when the dog stops pulling. That might be the next best thing to try.

don't get a prong collar for molly if you don't work with a trainer that can teach you how to use it! They can really hurt the dog if you don't use them correctly"! The one gabby picked up was huge for molly! she needs a smaller on as it needs to pit very snug and high on her neck (behind her ears) so she doesn't get hurt. I recommend you to queue a martingale and if it does not work to hire a dog trainer that can teach you to use a prong effectively and safely! The prong did wonders with my girl as she has a high prey drive, but a trainer worked with us to teach us how to use and train her with it!

Happy Birthday Sophie !! I love the bridle - Daisy is a sweetheart 💕 Hope All your wishes come True

💕💕I hope Sophie had an amazing birthday!!! 💕💕 If Daisy is getting bloated I would try a different food. Usually dog foods that are high in animal by products or corn can cause gas, bloating and lots of poop. Switching to a food that has the first few ingredients listed as real chicken, beef etc, not byproducts or corn will help. We have 2 Goldendoodles with reflux and sensitive bellies and my vet (also a breeder) friend helped me find a food that works really well. What I like about it is that it’s for puppies and adult dogs. It’s called Diamond Naturals. You can find it at Tractor Supply Co and Chewy. I used to manage a pet store many years ago and took lots of animal nutrition courses and learned how important reading labels on dog food is just as it is for us. Also, adding some yogurt into her food can help or pumpkin as that can help with the flora in her stomach. You already know about switching over gradually. 😊 My dogs have done really well on that food and I add water as well which is also good for puppies. I can’t believe how big the puppies are getting!!! I hope that helps!! 😊😊💕💕💕🥰

Happy Birthday Sophie!!🎉🎊🎂🎁🎈 I just turned twelve 😆 Hope you had a great day!

A harness encourages pulling, it’s what huskys wear when they pull a sled, don’t get a prong collar. a halti or some sort of dog halter is a much nicer way to stop pulling. I have a golden retriever that came to us with a choker chain and it did nothing to stop her pulling a halti fixed her pulling quite quickly.

Happy Birthday Sophie, I hope that you have a wonderful day.

I wonder if Daisy needs a different protein source. I know some dogs have issues with beef or chicken. Could be anything though. I hope you can get it sorted.

Happy Birthday Sophie!! Also, instead of a prong collar use a gentle leader :) works much better and is not sharp

The spurs that Gabby got are the same ones I use. They work really well for me and I've never had issues with rubs from them. out of all the spurs you could have got I'm glad you got those cause they really are a bit nicer.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOPHIEEEEE love u guys

Love the tack hauls💕 wish I could have my own horse but I'm happy having a loan and lessons!

Happy birthday Sophie. I'm glad you had a nice wonderful birthday.

I’m making Rope Halters and lead ropes then I’m going to sell them and begin my journey on saving up for my own horse! I used to have a horse so in my grandads stable there is like a free stall that used to belong to my old horse now my future/new horse will get that stall! Let’s hope it won’t be a too long of a journey...

AWW HAPPY 11TH BIRTHDAY SOPHIE! 🥳 I love tack hauls/shopping sprees! I think Daisy was the cutest 11th b-day present, I wish I got a Daisy for my 11th hehe And oh my goodness!!! when Gabby said "Mollie pees on men" I CRACKED up!!! 🤣🤣🤣 Loved the video! 💞 P.s I love how you kept calling a "harness" a "halter" lmao!!!

Happy birthday, Sophia 👸🏼 It looked like a wonderful day♥️

DONE!!!!! I love your videos there are my favorite thing to watch . Your horses are so of the prettiest horses in the whole world!!!

Hey! I work with prong collars they are GREAT! Make sure you study on how to use them first, though. I really suggest that you watch Upstate Canine Academy on prongs! I am a strong believer in tools and that work great when you know how to use them. One Thing tho: use Herm Sprenger! It’s a German company and is the best! They can be pricey but if you get it off Chewy.com they’re pretty reasonable! :D (Herm Sprenger is the ONLY company with a pressure distribution plate. It doesn’t hurt them at all! And in no time your dog will be the best it can be! Still use treats though of course haha)

Happy Birthday Sophie I have been seeing you grow up and getting stronger. We have been growing together through the camera you don't know me but one day I will meet you and hopefully be great friends. I am only 3 years older than you so I am happy that I am near your age and gabby's. Have a wonderful day and God loves you!!!

Happy birthday Sophie!!! Hope u had an amazing day!💞🎉 love you guys!💞💜😆

Their is a Dalmatian puppy food from royal cannin which helps support your puppies health maybe you could try that.Love your channel your horses are all so cute!! And I cant wait until you get your horse Laura I'm sure it will be your dream horse and it will be so lucky to have you as their owner good luck !!!

Prongs are great tools if used correctly. They can seriously mess a dog up if used incorrectly though. Please watch Upstate Canine Academy here on RU-vid if you want to look into using one on one of your dogs. The prong should sit up on the neck right under the ears, and be tight (not too tight- but it should be snug). There is a very specific way they need to be used. You can’t just put it on. It’s a training tool, so you need to put a lot of training into it. Just watch some videos, and decide if it’s a good decision for one of your pups!😊❤️ EDIT: I can’t believe I forgot to mention that when getting a prong, you absolutely NEED to get a Herm Sprenger one. Herm Sprenger collars are the Gucci version of prongs, any other prongs are like the dollar store brands (hope that made sense lol).

It’s 4am I haven’t slept since 12am.... looking forward to some b day shopping! Happy Birthday Sophie! 🥰🙌🎂

Hope you had a amazing day Sophie. Happy birthday

Great video! Happy Birthday Sophie!!! 🎉🎂

don't get a prong collar. They can cause serious injury's please use a head collar they give a ton of control and doesn't harm the dog. Also Sophie that harness that you got from Kong is amazing I have the same one and it has lasted forever and my dog doesn't pull as much any more. Also please do not get a retractable and tractable leash that can cause injury's to the dog and owner, I would recommend watching how to train a dream dog to learn about the leash and Is it me or the dog to learn about the head collar and prong collar.

The kong harness is awesome!! I got one for my doggo :) if you are finding molly and Daisy are pulling too hard get them a harness with the clip in the front on their chest it makes them feel the leash better without having to use a prong collar (low key think those are abusive) the Kong has a ring in the front it’s not made to lead the dog but it works well as my golden doesn’t respect the leash and try’s to pull my arm off (he broke his leg as a baby and was on a leash 24/7 so he hates it) the front pull has really helped because it turns him around when he pulls away from me instead of just dragging me :D love you all!! can’t wait to see Willow with her new bridle!!

Tell Gabbie to get the herm springer prong collar 2.5mm or 3mm depending on how thick Mollies coat is. Also Laura prongs are safer than regular collars as they distribute the pressure around the neck evenly as when she pulls with a regular flat color all the pressure goes on her trachea and it can damage her trachea. Please research them as prongs can be and often are the safest way to walk your dog and BEST way to teach them not to pull, harnesses encourage pulling and shouldn’t be used on a dog who pulls that’s why they use harnesses on huskies to pull sleds. Ps prongs do not hurt and will not hurt your dog you can even put it around your own neck I promise it doesn’t hurt. You just can’t leave them on your dog 24/7 they should only be used when walking on a leash.

Prong collar definitely DOES hurt them. Think about it this way - if they didn't feel it and it hurt them, then why would it work? Head collars are much better if Mollie gets strong when you walk her. Please don't ever use a prong or shock collar.

I hope Sophie had an excellent birthday🥳!! I LOVE those breeches😍! I always have a problem with buying breeches (that fit me at the time) and they stretch out and get to big😒 I feel like I’m constantly getting new breeches😂

Happy 11th birthday Sophie! I’m so proud of you, I enjoy watching you grow. Your becoming such a beautiful young lady and suchhhh a smart girl!! Love you Sophie💓

HAPPY B-DAY SOPHIA :)!!!!

Also prong collars are proven to put bends in airways and causes breathing problems, health issues and in even some cases...Death. I used to think they didn’t really hurt but put it around your neck. NO HATE I STILL LOVE YOU ALL LOL but please don’t get something like that, gabby is already good enough with training. Also you can get an actual “halter” type thing that is actually made for dogs, it goes on like a horse halter. That’s a better bet!

Hi Laura, in the video you mention about Daisy and her hearing, in one part you said that she has selective hearing or some selective deafness and it kinda sounded like your vet was unsure of that, but it is very possible that Daisy does have selective hearing or selective deafness, some breeds can have a selective hearing disorder, it may be something you want to look in too or read up, cause in some cases it can be caused by obedience and distractions. At one point you tried to say that when you sneezed it startled Daisy, depending on the way you sneeze and where she is she could feel the vibration of it and in some cases Sneezing is in another sound octave. I think it might help you expose Daisy to a bunch of different sounds in different octaves and see what she responds to. Another thing to think of when people say deaf, it doesnt always mean that they cant hear, it can also mean they can only hear in certain octaves of sound or maybe they are only have hearing in one side. Daisy could even have early onset hearing impairments that could develop more as she gets older, there is alot of stuff to consider, as the thing is she still is young and she is still learning. You have a beautiful family and animals.

The harness you bought is my all time favorite brand of all dog things

Happy birthday hope you had an amazing day ☀️. Hope you got what you were looking for. Love you guys ❤💞

OMG @daybydayvlogs CONGRATS ON GETTING VERIFIED!

Happy birthday queen!!! Your amazing and don't let anyone get you down sister!! Love you 😘

My birthday is on 10-20-2005 !! I’m 15 now. Happy birthday Sophie 🎉

the prong doesn’t hurt her! it corrects them where their mom used to, and it’s natural to them in that spot.

Happy birthday Sophie 11 was my fav year I’m 12 hope u have a great day love u all😊😊😊

Prong collars don’t necessarily hurt dogs but when they go to pull or when you pull they tighten around the dogs neck and the prong bit digs into there neck and it’s not comfortable for them

happy Birthday Sophia! Hope your ice cream cake was delicious!

No offence to you you know your dogs the most but I think a agree with the vet when you squished the toy she did not pay attention to it till you put it on the ground

Try feeding smaller more frequent meals. And try grain free, chicken free, and/or potato free. Those are common allegations in dogs. And the prong collars you can use two collars or a harness and first soft cue then use the harsher cue. NEVER pull though!!! Also start training in side not to pull then out side then gradually move up to more distracting locations.

Happy birthday Sophie!! I hope you had a great day! I'm sure finny was thinking of you!! ❤🎂

Happy birthday SOPHIE 💕💕💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Happy birthday super Sophie! You are amazing keep being you!

I love the kerrits brand too! They are just so expensive !!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SOPHIEE!!🥰

When I move (soon) were driving through Canada and I hope I meet you guys 🥺❤️

Happy birthday Sophie!!! I’m sick today 🤒

🎁 🎉🍰Happy Birthday, you 11year old, you! Before we know it, you’ll be driving off to college! Yikes! Where did the time go?!? Hoping you have a HUGE birthday wish come true! (whatever that wish may be!)...Enjoy your day!🎂🎉🎁

I do not recommend a prong collar even if you don't want to use a head harness you can use a chest harness one that clips the leash at the chest. When the dog tries to pull ahead the harness will make her just turn around instead.

for the Collar my Labrador pulls she is 1 year old and we have a choke collar but half of it is a normal collar and the rest is the chain and when the dog pulls you or you pull the dog back the collar gets tighter but don't worry it doesn't hurt them and happy birthday for yesterday Sophie

Happy Birthday Sophie!! 😘🧚‍♂️🎂🎁🧚‍♂️✨💞😇

What tack store is that they have so much stuff and my tack stores are so little and I can never find what I need

Omg happy birthday day! I hope your 11th bday is the best one yet! I love you all so so much and every single one of you an inspiration to me!

23:07 I have that same harness and I love it!!! I have a tiny dog and he comes himself if he doesn’t have a harness and this one works so well and it’s so durable!!

The reason daisy gets bloated is because she eats to quickly and inhaled gas into her stomach happy birthday Sophie hope you had a great birthday and thank you guys for bright King my day

Happy birthday Sofia hope you have an amazing day!
