Okay, since you guys like to guess breeds..

Can anyone see anything other than Shepherd in Rio? We know he's not a purebred, we just have no idea what else is in him because he looks so much like a Shepherd. At 9 weeks he was almost as big as Dizzy, my fully grown Aussie. I saw him and his brother when I went to adopt one as they were the...

WHat breeds do you see in her?

Here is our little Hurricane Katrina girl. She is about 25 lbs and the sweetest girl ever. She looks mostly yellow Lab to me, but obviously others due to her size and ears in particular. She has the coloring, coat type, tail, and eyes (I think) of a Lab, but the rest is a mystery. I've thought Corgi...

http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/m/minicoonhound.htm Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it's the mini coonhound. No, I am not joking.

Messed up breed listings.

I know rescues and shelters are doing good by helping out unwanted or abandoned animals, but don't you think they'd do so much better if they'd study up on their dog breeds so they actually list the right breed or right breed mix? When I have nothing to do at work I'll surf the net...

Breed?

Could someone tell me what mix Asia is? I'm certain she's a German Shephard X, but what is she crossed with? (ears normally stand upright, like in the second picture.)

What are the popular breeds in your area?

Here in the Philippines (in the city), the most popular breeds are the Lab, Shih Tzu and Japanese Spitz. There are a lot of Rotties, Dobies, Golden Retrievers and Dachshunds. Pibbles and Huskies are also becoming more popular. Now, which breeds are popular in the area you live in?

Anyone care to guess about my shelter dog's mix?

We adopted Jack from the shelter in late February, and he was listed as a "lab/shepherd mix". I don't particularly see that, so I'm guessing they thought that sounded nice and generic. He's about 10 months old (we think) and 65 lbs. He's fairly mellow and laid back, but he absolutely...

I-Dog's Effect On Breeds For You

Just wondering...have any of you grown to like a breed who you didn't/were neutral about before because of dogs here on i-dog and their owners, what you've learned about these breeds here, etc.? For me, I've definitely come to have a respect and admiration for pit bulls, thanks to everyone...
