During this year I had miss lots my old cocker but I saw several online shorts about golden. I started to think, "cocker too do it!!". My preview dog was everything a cocker was supposed to be. So, that's my similitudes and diffences:

SIMILITUDES

-both are lazy, really, do you want your dog jump over the bed or find the ball you just throw for play? They will stare you, not because the stupidity but because is easier if you do it for them... I remember my dog knowing where was the ball watching me like "do it for me";

-both are fun, especially when they wake up sleepy;

-both are clumsy, they are like elephants in a room full of glass;

-they sleep taking too much space in the bed;

-both got soft bite, with my actual dog I had undervalued this amazing skill;

-both love deeply kids, both got the patience to just to lie down and let kids doing everything (my cocker let them cover her with a blanket under summer sun);

-I had say they are lazy?

DIFFERENCE

-cockers are more elegant as behavior, golden are far more clumsy;

-cocker are more snobbish;

-cocker, sad to say, are more skilled to understand commands;

-golden are more patience;

-cocker is tidy, golden is a storm;

-cocker is more invisible when calm, golden more irruent.

But the difference in the end is low.

(intro) The history is so interesting and what lead me to understand actually my could be not the breed but a the mix.

HISTORY

Years years ago there was the period of conquering the world from the old continent, the piracy and the corsairs... those people were used to carry with them dogs.

"Oh gosh they shooted to us" then ended as Titanic and dogs, mostly various kind of bichons, said "we need to stay together to survive" so crocodiles and water... years and years here we go those little dogs from Madagascar.

So, yes, coton is a mix... some myths say poodle and terrier are included, which is highly possible.

"Yoo oh yoo oh" would reply Jack Sparrow which probably owned a mix of those ones.

That's a fun question. He does love travel in car but in rv is a mess, since is an old rv means can invade our space easily... now we tie him but, really, I don't even know HOW he untie him or just jump and tangle himself. 🫡 Useless to say we laugh so much, most of the time we are luck we tie him and opening the window he smell the air when we drive (he would jump out while we drive!!!) so I would say to use the bag for the bike (a backpack bought for my three mini - little bigger than small) rabbits. But my mom dislike the idea. I also got the belt, my rv got the belt in the dinette too (is for four). But mmmh... for now most of the time I hug him! 😅 Luckly we go in not touristic places when we drive.

Ok, don't hate me, is based by similitudes between my traits (I'm ASD HF) and his.

I was wondering "how I can separate his pstd to his autistic traits and his pstd traits are making him like that or he could have autistic traits?" so I started to dig into... I usually spend hours or even months for understand those stuffs and the result to me is clear.

Patrick Jane is ASD HF innate, high masking based on a NPD style went pervasive before John Red, PSTD after John Red that esclusively make evident his innate autistic traits. What we see before John Red actually makes sense, is just an high masking but we never see him outside his comfort zone which is how it works autistic traits and what allows him to be so good about his high masking which makes sense for a kid raised pretending to be somebody else.

So: Patrick Jane is Autistic Spectrum Disorder High Functional "asperger" --> raised with skills on manipulating others --> high masking --> achieving a pervasive narcisistic style --> Post Traumatic Disorder --> unable to use high masking still having narcistic style.

He doesn't got Narcistic Disorder Personality, pervasive style is not his personality but what shaped him.

I was watching 1x18 and I was like "oh cool a hypnotist vs a quite famous mentalist". Nothing happened. I was shocked. I was waiting somebody would say "oh I know you" or "I checked who you are online"... nothing.

This got no sense nor with the pilot but especially with the preview flashback. Patrick Jane was famous and nobody recognize him? Sorry but got no sense.

I could understand the majority but the hypnotist or somebody surely... in the end Patrick Jane was created as an important mentalist.

Got absolutely no sense like that! Ok, maybe not whole or the majority not... but c'mon a pnl boss surely would recognize him or at least somebody in the crowd!!!
