    Honestly I don't know that there is anything to help him besides just time. I would suggest new toys(if he likes new toys like most dogs). New toys and a new home may make the transition a little easier

    yeah I'm probably going to pick him up some today if I get time. I just feel awful for him, I know some people see them as just dogs but he's my son lol. He doesn't like letting me leave at all.

    Well those "some people" are stupid! Haha, there is no doubt my dog is my son and I will argue that with anyone. When I take my dog to one of my parents house for a weekend or something where I wont see him I always buy him a new toy. Seems to make it easier for him to adjust.

    that's a good idea man, thanks for that. I'm hoping to actually get some "home stuff" setup this week throughout the evenings so that it's not just chaos and crap sitting everywhere. I'm thinking that will help too. I've barely sat down at all and me going 90 to nothing all weekend I'm sure has stressed him too.

    It only takes time and money! Seriously though I have bad news for Brian. That my buddy who I built the bumper with built one too and used the all pro as a base. Sorry @TacoAlaMode

    Thanks man. It was a lot of work but worth it. If anyone has questions about building them or questions about what to use for a spindle I would highly recommend yiu buy one that has a dual shear they make it so unbelievably strong. I can jack up my entire truck with my swing arm. I did it yesterday.

    I have a hitch rack, should you ever need to use it.

    Is he kennel trained? If not, I highly recommended it. Our sheltie will destroy our house, if we didn't keep her in there while away. Once trained, they have a sense of security while in there.

    He is not kennel trained. Never would stay in one as a puppy. He's a great dog and well trained. Never potties in the house and never tears anything up. He just can't handle all of this change at once it seems.

    Can I bug you all to tell me what you have chosen, and if you're willing to tell me what you pay for your internet and TV? Company/Speed/Price/etc...

    My parents is HSV have DirecTV and Knology internet. I honestly don't know what they pay, but I do remember swapping from Knology cable to DirecTV long ago because they kept screwing up our bills. Knology internet I think is the only ones that offered the speed my dad wanted.

    I use DirecTV satellite, it's the best programming and options that I've found.

    For internet, I use Charter Communications. Runs at 60mbps.


    I believe the bill is around $150.00 per month for both.

    Not sure what's available up there though.

    Comcast and too much. Not because of Comcast, but the number of TV's, internet and phone combined. :anonymous:

    Cable over satellite. If there product was better, they wouldn't push a contract.

    I am probably looking to get AT&T Fiber (100Mbps) and DirectTV Choice (175 Channels) for 110$/month. Sounds like a pretty good price to me..

    ha it is high clearance. Did i cut out the fenders on the side? Hell no. It does not have to have the fenders cut to be a high clearance bumper.

    So many choices you have....I am stuck with copper 6mbs...:annoyed::annoyed::annoyed:

    I use to have charter and loved it. Now they are about half a mile down the street from my house and I don't see any signs of them coming on into my neighborhood. The sad thing is that I could engineer the route to my house in half a day...
    btw F AT&T anything!:duel:

    I had the AT&T u verse in collage and hated it. I was very up and down on speeds. Also now I have to deal with them for work and they make my life hell. They care about nothing but themselves, I have to beg them over and over to complete work at their COs. I get told all the time that the work is complete and when I show up nothing has been done. :annoyed:

    If you go with AT&T, why not go with their TV service as well? :notsure:

    Take a hard look at Comcast, if it's available in your area. :thumbsup:

    AGAIN, no contracts. A friend of mine got burned on the DirectTV bait and switch (components) last year and they said too bad, he's stuck with the older system, and not the one he was told he'd get. I'm against DirectTV, because I'm tired of being molested by one of their salesmen (salespeople for the PC crowd), EVERYTIME I go into Sams or Costco. :rant:

    YMMV

    I have AT&T U-Verse and I like them, the internet kinda sucks through them but they're in the process of adding fiber optic cable this week where I'm staying at so hopefully we will see.
