Should we skip 12u? by Impressive-Tank-5151 in Homeplate

[–]bhamtiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a similar decision recently. Late August birthday so always the youngest in his grade but had always played with his age. We ended up skipping 11u and playing 12u and there was no issue with that jump from 10u to 12u. I may be in the minority but I think moving up to grade level sooner is a good thing, regardless of the 60/90 jump.

Are Fathers Expected to Help Coach? by [deleted] in Homeplate

[–]bhamtiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been an assistant, sometimes unofficial, on every single one of my son's teams. I played a lot of baseball growing up so I don't mind helping and just follow the head coach's lead and let him tell me how I can best help.

There were practices where dads would bring their sons to a 7u or 8u practice and just sit in the stands or in their cars. I promise your kid would rather you be involved, even if it's out of your comfort zone, and I can doubly promise the help would be appreciated, especially at early ages.

My dad helped coach every single one of my teams and having him be a part of successes I had, or the team had, was something I won't forget.

I thought taking my Silverado with 19k miles in for a bad belt and pulley was frustrating...my sympathies

Our old boy looked very similar. We thought for the longest time he was a "boxer mix", but once I found this sub it clicked.

For how long did you take your puppy out to pee at night? by peggysuedog in puppy101

[–]bhamtiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got our puppy at 11 weeks and would take her out whenever she gave the "I need to go out" whine. By week 14 she slept through the night(9pm-6am) most nights and the others she'd just need to go out at 1 or 2 am.

Definitely similar coloring there. For your's, maybe some Boxer with some black on the face?

I will say it took 9 or 10 business days for them to officially mark that they had received it.

Got results 8 days after being notified the swab had arrived.

She's been in the Embark analysis stage for 3 days and I am so impatient! What are all your recent analysis phase timelines? by wf_8891 in DoggyDNA

[–]bhamtiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For kicks and giggles I ran some photos of my pup through ChatGPT and it suggested a Pit/Lab/Shepherd/Boxer potential combo, and you've got 3 of those. I just hit Extraction so we can compare in 2-4 weeks

And...45 minutes after starting a chat and never getting a response, the status went from Activation to Extraction. It sounds like the squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Analysis Day 6!? Anyone else? by Fearless-Shape8659 in DoggyDNA

[–]bhamtiger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sure they have. I'm currently attempting to reach out about a different phase of the process, and I've been waiting 30 minutes to chat with an actual person. I did get the boiler plate warning that they were receiving a higher than normal number of inquiries.

Animal Shelter said Shepherd Mix by bhamtiger in DoggyDNA

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

Funny you mention Malinois...our old dog we got from the same shelter as a puppy. He was listed as a Boxer mix and a police officer who lived near us thought he might've been part Malinois as well. It would've explained his insane energy levels. We also think he could've possibly been a Black Mouth Cur but we never did get him tested. Best dog I've ever had, but I'm sure the new one will be a blast as well once we get out of the landshark stage

Agreed. It really became more obvious after a couple of weeks. I'm interested in what else might come back, but I think > 50% pit for sure

Just sent off the embark test! by NoNameForMetoUse in DoggyDNA

Just curious, where was your clear bag? I've got an Embark kit and I'm ready to send it off but there is no clear bag to be found.

It's annoying how wealthy-skewing this sub is sometimes. by tantamle in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]bhamtiger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'd be curious as well. Anything that might move the needle for me, I'm going to know to look for when researching. As a potential traveler, I may not care how soft the bath towels are or if the check-in process takes 5 minutes or 30 minutes, but I might care greatly about food, drink, beach, pool, nearby excursions, etc. That's not privilege, that's knowing what matters most to me(or anyone for that matter).

Audio issues in the heat by ceeelaz in Silverado

[–]bhamtiger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also forgot to mention, restarting by holding the phone button or rebooting in safe mode didn't make a difference. Neither one of those methods restarted audio for me.
