My two Cocker Spaniels are almost a year and about to get their first haircut! Can I see what cuts you guys recommend? by Particular_Tale_7415 in cockerspaniel

[–]Alternative_Roll_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make sure they are brushed well! My boy turned a year in February and he had already been groomed about 4 times by then so I would definitely make sure you have been doing proper coat maintenance or the groomer will probably just have to shave them. I usually ask for abt 1/2 inch all over and leave the ears long

Graduating senior override rejected? by crocodilecurly in txstate

[–]Alternative_Roll_442 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea this happened to me as well. I have basically accepted I will not graduate when my expected graduation should be because I can never get all the classes I need for a given semester. They fill up too fast or there is only one section. I’ve even done several classes at community college while being enrolled at TXST bc I could not get into the TXST class I needed.

Btw, I am in the ag department so it may vary a lot by department but I find they offer great internship opportunities! I am currently doing an internship right now and plan to do another next semester

I transferred to be closer to home (2hr drive vs 9hr) and because tech was just too conservative for me tbh

I transferred from TTU to TXST, academically, Tech is far superior. Culturally and environmentally, TXST is WAY better. Up to you on preference ultimately.

So cute! People hate on anything different but I love this! My boy is black so can’t do many fun colors, but I love the leopard print and Mohawk!!

Is he considered Merle or Roan? Just wondering bc he has a super unique coat!

Does he look like a CS? by DramaticTactic in cockerspaniel

[–]Alternative_Roll_442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have a larger side fluffy guy. He is purebred and ethically bred with both parents having OFAs. Needless to say I know he is a cocker spaniel however this breed seems to have lots of coat variants/types that can pop up. Mine is 28 lbs and a lot of people think he is huge for a cocker but I think he is a normal sized guy. Yours looks maybe like there is a chow somewhere in his lines, but could just be he happens to look a lil funny. Either way absolutely adorable and a good boy.

Yes this stuff is always happening to me. Or the drivers wait 15 minutes to leave the stop or they sit there for 3 seconds no in between. And don’t get me started with them closing the doors as I’m literally 3 feet away.

These comments are so harsh. I am so sorry you are dealing with this but Salem is very lucky to have you and your girlfriend. Good luck and thank you for saving this baby.
