A friend of mine created this detailed dog training series a couple of years ago and I feel like it doesn't get the love it deserves. She's a fully accredited dog trainer and built this course over several years in order to save new dog owners money. Hiring a private trainer for your pup normally costs $100+ per hour and taking them to puppy preschool is typically $150 for 6 classes that just go over the basics (sit, stay etc.). Not to mention if you want to take your dog to the more advanced classes after puppy preschool it's hundreds more. She made this course so she can spend time with her pups whilst still helping people train their dogs.

Adrienne teaches everything covered there in this one course so you can teach your pup in the comfort of your own home, at your own pace and for a fraction of the price. The best part is, she works with you as you teach your pup, you can reach out to her whenever you run into any issues and she'll help. So you still get the 1 on 1 expert opinion that you'd get from a private trainer, all you have to do is send her an explanation or video of the problem you're trying to address or issues in teaching that you're having.

Delete this post if it's not allowed but I just thought this might help some new dog parents :)

Have you ever wanted to have a painting of your partner, a family portrait, your dog or whatever your favorite photo is? I always loved the idea of painting but unfortunately I'm not the best at it. A few months ago though a friend and I came up with a cool idea, what if you could turn any photo you want into a paint by numbers. That way anyone can paint, anything they want.

We looked up custom paint by numbers and found a few Etsy stores selling them but they were way overpriced and most of them didn't even come with the canvas on a frame. So we looked around and talked to a bunch of suppliers, eventually we managed to produce custom paint by number kits cheaper then anywhere else and already framed (you can still order them without a frame but we found most people want them ready to go out of the box).

Long story short though we're trying to grow and get more people talking about us. So we decided it would be a good idea to reach out to some local subreddits and hopefully you'll enjoy them enough to share your experience :)

You can use the code "COSTPRICEREDDIT" to get our kits for cost price (our margins are pretty slim right now we want to be as affordable as possible). You can get up to 4 kits at that price so feel free to buy a few and plan a date night, family activity or just get your Christmas shopping done.

Buying a house in Bristol, I’m near Yeovil most days. Looking for some mates.

I’ll be staying in your town for the rest of the week with a lot of free time and am thinking about what to do. Current plans: have a look at the Cerne Giant; spend a day at the sea somewhere (what place that I can reach by train is best for this?).

Feel free to drop a comment if you know more attractions, or if you want to get a pint at some pub.

Down here this week from Bonnie Scotland, where's best to grab a pint? What is their to do?

Me and my family are thinking about starting a children’s play area in Somerset, and we need your help! 🧸

We need to know if there’s a demand in the area for a new children’s play area, so I’ve made a quick survey to find out what you and your kids would want in a play space. Your thoughts could help shape something really special! ♥️

Dear all,

Thank you for your replies to the previous post. I just had another follow-up question about public transport. Do busses around the town run regularly and on time? I was thinking of using public transport for commuting and primarily looking at bus routes 81 and 51. I understand that the busses can be late sometimes but drawing from previous experiences in other parts of the SW, they have been quite okay (in my humble opinion). However, I am not sure how it looks like in Yeovil.

Thanks.

Nothing too crazy just one or 10 drinks.

Hi,

I am visiting from Canada and I was wondering what people usually do on monday nights here? I'm not too fussy and always down for a drink!

Thank you

Around the Hospital/College area. She hasn't been home in a few days which is really out of character for her.

Hi! I am coming down to Yeovil for a day to do some property viewings as I will be moving here at some point this year. I have a couple of viewings lined up and was wondering what public transport is like. I don't have my car with me, so I will rely on public transport to get around for the day. Are there any bike hires or something like that?

Cheers!

Hi, I’m looking at moving to Yeovil. Great opener because I’ve read all the advice saying “don’t”. I don’t have a car so for at least a while I’d be living in the town, I’d appreciate any advice on if there are any areas I should avoid living in, and any areas which are worth looking at. Thanks!

Hello, we are a group of psychology researchers from the University of Kent, UK. It would be a huge help if anyone from Britain who is interested would fill out our quick survey (18+ years old only) about your views of refugees.

Fill out the survey here: https://universityofkent.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_4U6y8pi1se8YjrM

We are posting here because we hope to collect responses from British participants with various political perspectives and backgrounds. Please let us know if you would like a summary of your responses once the data collection is complete.

The survey takes ~7 minutes to complete, and we are happy to respond to any queries or questions. Please private message us to avoid giving away the point of the study to others. 

Thanks for your time. 

Edit: The survey is now closed! Thank you very much for your time.

I'm trying to make friends with people at work and they don't seem to wanna know 🙃 Are there any places I'm missing? Feeling quite lonely in this town after moving back here after living up north for a while. People don't seem to be open to wanting new friends? I'm relatively normal (I think) . Enjoy nature, walks, beach, few bevs, little pot smoke on hills. Where is everyone? Some clubs or anything to get to know people?

Messaged quite a few and still have no luck finding one because I am only available during weekends... TIA

The state of the high street in yeovil is shocking! Ok so they are spending loads on developing it, pointless if all the shops are still empty! How about the council licence the shops for food and drink and bars etc and put loads of chairs and tabes and plants outside like europe? That would get the town buzzing again! Cant be worse than the million barber shops we have.

Hey all. I live in Yeovil well very close by I to a smaller town couple years back. Born here lived away most my life been back 5-6 years.

Wondered if people from Yeovil got any traction or even fuck with Reddit at all.

Wondering any like minded forward thinking people about? Just a post. Bless up all

Hi, I'm travelling tomorrow by train, and need to transfer from Penn Mill to Junction, would I be able to walk this easily in an hour, or waould a taxi/bus be best?

Many thanks!

**Edit: There is a minibus between the two every hour!**

In Yeovil bored

Drove past the site of Pittards yesterday and noticed it is for sale. What do we think would be good to go in it's place? I'm thinking something like an Outlet Shopping Centre, nothing massive but enough to bring people in to the area could be good!

Hi everyone,I am the co-founder of Ganddee, a sustainable lifestyle app. Think of it as the Google Maps for sustainable places. While other platforms promote new green products, we believe that sustainable consumption should also include second-hand shops, charity shops, rental places, etc., in addition to sustainable new products. We feature around 2,000 physical stores and hundreds of online businesses in UK, some offering special discounts.

I would love to receive feedback on the app and would be grateful if you could suggest any 2nd hand, rental, repair stores, food coops, vegan restaurants, sustainable stores(you submit we do the verification), etc in Yeovil. We have been relying on our community to suggest new places and inspire each other. All the suggestions can be done through app.

If you are a owner of a sustainable store, I would love to connect and explore how I can help you reach a wider audience.
