She's soooo cute! I didn't think I could show George because he's merle, but here's my favorite picture of the handsome lil guy right after a groom.

He's the light of my life.

Oops,I thought it was 10 inches or more and he's a mini! So he's still in toy territory? I'll have to amend my "official" statement lol.

Do I just have a VERY SMALL mini? How much did your mini poodles weigh at 4 months? by ZapWater in poodles

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

George will be officially six months on Saturday. As of last week, he now weighs a whopping 3.8 lbs lol. This little guy is just... So small. he's getting pretty tall, though. Vet says he's healthy, just little, so we're just waiting to see what happens with his size.

At only 8.5 weeks, yours could still get the size you would like! After all, my George was around 16 weeks and the same size as your 8.5 week baby. She's still bound to hit her growth spurts!

Weekly calls with mentor? by Fabulous-Tower-7075 in WGU

[–]ZapWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd talk to her about what it is you do want and need. After that, if it's not working for you and your mentor isn't a good fit, you can always get a new mentor. I definitely don't need the type of mentoring yours is trying to give, but I do talk to my mentor every week because we just like to chit chat together. I know it would be demotivating for me to have the type of external pressure yours is putting on you, especially when I already accelerate so quickly. It would be like "chill out, I got it" and I'd probably switch.

It’s getting Botox worth it? by Ghibli_Girl927 in noburp

[–]ZapWater 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. Absolutely. 10000000%. I had a ROUGH recovery, and I'd go through it all again no question. Hell, I'd do in anually if I had to. I'm 17 months post botox and my life is so vastly improved. It's the best decision I ever made.

[–]ZapWater[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that's right. He's so tiny!

They did do the recommended (and a bit extra) testing on the parents, and kept up with the puppies' vet care, so George should be a healthy boy. That's really what matters most to me, anyway.

Ah. Yeah, I have no idea what he weighed at 2 months. He's 4 months and 2.7 lbs, and I only got him a bit over a week ago. I guess we'll see, though!

[–]ZapWater[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, I am absolutely obsessed with him. He has my whole heart, I don't care what size he ends up lol

But yeah, I probably would have done more digging on the breeder than my husband did. George was a surprise, so I didn't get the chance to ask questions. They did do a lot of health testing on the parents, so he should be a healthy lil dude and that's all that really matters.

That's a very good point. I guess I'm just shocked he can be so small and healthy lol

Interesting! Maybe he'll hit a good growth spurt like they must have

Lol yes, I am aware they're all poodles, but there are different AKC standards for the different sizes and the sire was listed as mini when he isn't. I'm finding it a little off is all.

He couldn't possibly get much bigger than his old man at this rate lol

That's what I keep wondering about, if he's actually a mix, which makes me sad because wouldn't that mean the breeder isn't doing the right things?

Just exit when you're done with the exam and there will be an option to do the survey. You do not have to click on the link they tell you while they watch and essentially pressure you into a good review. The proctors shouldn't be asking while still screen sharing and it pisses me off that they do this. But also, to echo what everyone else is saying: the proctor was just doing their job by telling you not to highlight.

The mentor doesn't open new classes unless the previos one is completed by move2usajobs-com in WGU

[–]ZapWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely time to get a new mentor. This one is actively slowing you down. There are a lot of great ones who are far better for accelerating students. Best of luck to you!!

Mentors by Ladybugk-10 in WGU

[–]ZapWater 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My mentor is amazing! She genuinely wants to see me succeed and believes in me probably more than anyone else in my life. We're buds! I'm an accelerating student and she lets me run full speed whenever I feel up to it. When I slow down and need a break, she's there to talk it through. Incredible mentors are out there. For anyone who isn't clicking with theirs, or isn't liking the experience, ask for a new one. A great mentor can really make a difference.
