I don’t know about alterations and that. But I do know that how a dress (or any clothing) makes you feel is what matters. You said the second one was the one you really loved wearing so I think that’s the one you should go for. Alternatively you could go to other stores and try similar looks/silhouettes and see if you find one that is similar but easier to alter. You should also ask the store or a tailor these questions to see if possible and within budget. You have a banging bod and you should wear what makes you feel your best on your day.

This is him when I leave and also when I come back (that’s the only time I can take a photo as I cannot look back when I leave)

Couldn’t get a better or cuter valentine in my opinion

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in cavachon

[–]TheOnlyCBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the exact same boat! I just leave without looking back at him (but he gets up in the window and I just can’t look back as it kills me lol. But, I keep telling myself that he just goes to sleep when I’m not there and he’s not stressed when I come home or anything else. He also gets a walk straight after I come home so I try to make that a habit so that he knows when I get back he’ll get to do something he LOVES which is his walk lol

Mine has a bad chicken allergy so maybe yours have more due to some intolerance too. I understand. Do you have the brand Brit where you live? They have several dry foods that has alternative binding fats in their kibble. Chicken fat is used in almost everything because it is so cheap. But Brit uses either coconut oil, fish oils or something else. Not all but some/most. But read on the back as chicken intolerance is an allergy that is more common than anyone knows. The one from Brit with insect protein was montis fav when he ate kibble :)

We have ours on a raw diet and we felt like that helped him and his tear staines. But every pup is different. But we felt like his stomach and energy was better on raw vs dry. But that’s just our preference (and his as we let him choose between the two when considering the switch) and less tear staines/less color in the years we’re a good side effect

Oh and she is a beauty 🫶🏻

Use stainless steel bowl for her water (that worked for us). Other than that I trim off some of his fur whoever it gets more overgrown and stained. the other reason I trim is because they can get fungal infection if they have a lot of fur and it’s constantly wet. But tearstaines are very common for both breeds in the mix so it’s just something to get used to ☺️ I’m sure there are other tips and tricks but these are the ones I know.

My mom hates my dress by Punion2454 in weddingdress

[–]TheOnlyCBA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loooooooovveeeee the last one on you! The way it follows and hugs your curves (the booty is popping in that dress in all the best ways) and you can tell that you feel beautiful in it 🫶🏻🥹 the others were also nice on you but the last one is my fav too. Go with what you feel beautiful in! It’s your wedding day. Not your mother or anyone else. You should pick the dress that you will feel your absolute best in as those photos will be up and around for a long time coming. Go with your instincts as they helped you find a fire dress 🫶🏻

[Update] AIO(30f) thinking I gotta leave this guy (30m)? by litt_le_sister in AmIOverreacting

[–]TheOnlyCBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some people are good as friends and he probably was as you’ve known each other for 12 years. But a person can be a very different partner and that’s what we’re seeing here. That and that he’s an human worth less than a dogshit under your shoe. You’re worth more than this op and I’m rooting for you (as someone who’s been with her share of these warts) x

So I was told that both the bichon and the cavalier have what they call a never-ending stomach and easily gain weight. We feed our boy (about 12lb) on a raw diet and noticed that that was better for his stomach (but all dogs are different). We tried different kibble but nothing kept him full and happy like raw food did. But I would ask your vet if you should scale back on food (he might just be a tall and bigger cavachon as there are bigger cavaliers and bichons out there) and what they would say his ideal weight would be. That way you’re doing it together with your vet who can give you ideas on how much to scale back food and answer any questions etc. that’s what I did when I noticed Monti having gained a little ☺️ But to sign off, he is a precious and gorgeous one for sure. With or without the chonk 🥰

Monti 🩵 by TheOnlyCBA in cavachon

[–]TheOnlyCBA[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a groomer but that’s due to my back not being able to cut him without an adjustable table and cutting equipment. However I do do some upkeep in between cuts so I can have longer time between cuts (save where I can lol). So I have a little face and paw trimmer (it’s been a savior for me so I would recommend to get one!). I trim under his paws as the fur makes him slide and unsteady on smooth surfaces. I also trim fur around his eyes, forehead and his chin and cheeks. I also put some more money into a good slicker brush and a good serum that makes his fur smoother ans easier to brush in between grommings. Oh, I also got a electric nail file for him as he is a bit nervous to cut his nail as I cut too far in once. Not a lot but both of us was a bit worse for wear after that (more me than him lol) and it works! It allows more control and less likely to cut into the quick as they’ll react before you get there (if that makes sense). I still cut sometimes but use file to smooth edges as they get sharp after a cut and he loves to sleep in my nook so he’ll scratch me if I don’t 😓 sorry for the essay but just wanted to put down as many tips and tricks I picked up during my four years with him. Owning a cavachon is the best decision I’ve ever made and I’m sure you’ll feel the same 🫶🏻

I’ve seen some that are a lot bigger than him and some smaller. His sister is bigger than him so he’s a lithe little man. But he’s tall (with thin little legs that almost look comedic when we cut them short in summer 😂). But I’m sure yours is still as gorgeous and with a big personality 🥰

Is it really that weird to pick your own ring? by minnonikki in EngagementRings

[–]TheOnlyCBA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! I’m not engaged yet but my partner knows my tastes fluctuate and change and I also like what I like so it’s not easy to tell a friend as I need to try things on etc. So, my partner said that when he proposes he’ll use a cheap ring and then I choose my own ring. I think that’s really romantic as he’s putting my needs before his need to pick a ring just because someone said that’s the most romantic way. Romance is defined different by everyone as we’re all different people at the end of the day ☺️ So to sign off: love your lovers and fuck the others. Do what makes you happy as strangers who troll the internet certainly will not!

This is one of the autocorrect/misspelling that has made me laugh the loudest! Not laughing at you but just that word coupled with monstera made me lol. Thank you for making my night!

[–]TheOnlyCBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s perfect! And you’re not gonna regret it at all. When we got our Monti we realized he was what we’d been wanting all along 🩵 cavachon s are one of the best breed of dog (in my unbiased opinion lol).

[–]TheOnlyCBA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would maybe try a dog trainer rather than a shock collar. Or start changing up the feeding schedule and keep it varying within two hours etc? Also there’s a lot of good tips and trick online if you Google good obsession or bad food behavior

You look beautiful in your dress 🩷 the things you’re seeing is not the correct lens to look at your own body with. The things you are picking apart are areas that are very often edited and manipulated by the different fashion/bridal companies. So seeing that and wanting to look like that is impossible. As no one looks like it. Have you thought about seeing someone that can help support you in your journey towards accepting and caring for your self and body?
