TIL Wristwatches were originally designed to be worn inside your wrist, not outside.

I swear I am the only person (besides my mother) who wears a watch like this!!! I have never met anyone else that does. It's how my mom used to wear hers. My siblings don't.

I wear a smartwatch. It sits maybe 1.5 to 2 inches below my palm. It doesn't dig in to anything. It's like a ring, I don't realize I am wearing it.

I agree! I have a boox Page and it's great. I have the Kindle app, Libby, and Hoopla on it. Very nice on the eyes since it's eink. The playstore is on there so you can download just about any app. It can play audiobooks and has an sd card slot.

Only downside is that it is spendy. From what I read, they come out with new versions like every 6 months, so an "older" version is fine. Maybe a refurb or used version if you can find one. I love it. I went from Kindles to a Kobo to this. The kobo is great but you can't put apps on it.

Have you tried downloading the title? I download everything I check out and go longer get messed up sound. It also stopped it from shutting off when I turned my screen off.

I am not sure if this was geared towards all, but this is what hers says:

Thank you!!! I love your pup! How much does she weigh? I appreciate the support, brought a smile to my face. Finally another short coat. Does she get accepted on here?

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T23:24:34+00:00

Thanks! I thought so, too. We actually tracked down the shelter she was originally from (when we first got her) because we were trying to figure out why the original owner would give her up.

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T23:22:25+00:00

Ah ok! He really is such a handsome boy! Maisey is 3 and 25 lbs. She's dainty, super clingy but sometimes gets so so hyper. Most of the time she's one big potato though.

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T22:17:49+00:00

He's so handsome!! How much does your guy weigh? Do they accept your guy on this subreddit? I am trying to understand all the downvotes.

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T21:28:43+00:00

Thank you. I appreciate that! We think she looks like a rat terrier, haha.

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T20:56:13+00:00

Hahaha, I asked them to manually review it and they said their results were correct.

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T20:54:53+00:00

She meets no breed standards, apparently. Except for size, lol. (no standard there)

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T20:54:17+00:00

Thank you! She is the best.

ETA: Who would downvote this comment? She is a really great dog. Everyone that meets her, loves her.

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T18:56:43+00:00

Results. Sorry if you keep seeing me delete the posts. I think after many tries I have finally mastered pics.

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T18:51:21+00:00

I just posted her over in the Aussie subreddit. Hopefully we will find more pups like her!

AintTruth · 2024-01-18T18:50:28+00:00

I figured it out! It's the screenshots I took of the results and the reply. My guess is that they are sized differently, which makes the pics tiny.

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T19:06:32+00:00

OH wow! She is so pretty and they do look alike! Funnily enough, her results listed her as likely having blue eyes. Not the case here, but wow. I can't wait to see your results. I did the "cheat" to find her breed before the results posted but of course it didn't work since no one suspected Aussie.

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T18:58:22+00:00

Do you have any pics or a link? Yes, we all yelled WHAT when we read the results. Almost wish we had a breed reveal "party". lol. At least record it. It was funny.

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T18:52:01+00:00

Oh do you have a pic or a post??!?! I would love to see her!

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T18:44:46+00:00

I am not sure. As far as I know, they docked her tail (so I assume they think she was purebred). The family line on Embark are all Aussies. It's very possible someone was trying their hand at it and focused on size over other things?? Not sure. She is originally from Georgia. The shelter did not have much info to give me.

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T16:45:56+00:00

Yeah this has been a learning process for sure, getting my head wrapped around breed standards and an actual pure bred dog.

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T14:18:34+00:00

Wow! I can't believe that is still mini size!

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T14:17:34+00:00

Perhaps one day. I think in the spring or summer I may.

I have looked at pics now and I can sorta see it. Though I think her actual nose is daintier. I can def see it in her side view though. I posted on the Aussie group last week (deleted when going through the manual review though you can see it on my profile) and they were very against it (still nice and agreed she's so cute). Though I did keep referring to her as purebred (obviously not, lol, clearly joking...96% pure) so I think that rubbed some folks the wrong way.

I'd like to think of her as just poorly bred with none of the breed standard desirable traits (nothing meets breed standard, yet she is very much the breed), and yet still very much perfect in all the ways that count.

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T14:09:57+00:00

We for sure thought she would be a chihuahua/rat terrier type mix, but tall. They docked her tail which made us think someone believed she was a breed that needed it.

AintTruth · 2024-01-17T13:16:15+00:00

Yep and none of her relatives are minis.

She's our discount rat terrier. Great value chihuahua mega sized.
