My Bulldog's Nose...? Not Soft?!
This is my first bulldog (a Frenchie) and today I noticed that his little nose isn't soft or cold or moist at all. In fact, it's hard and quite dry. Is this normal for a French Bulldog or other flat nosed breeds?

A mix between husky and shepherd or something like laika?
Hi this is my dog Diamond. Not a very doggy name but we won't change it as it may be another stress for him comming from the shelter. He's one year old exactly and was listed there as a Siberian Laika. But I seriously doubt he's a Laika, even if I know some lineages of West-Siberian laikas...

McNabb Border Collie?
I was watching the Ultimate Dog Challenge on Animal Planet, and one of the dogs is a McNabb Border Collie. She's beautiful! Very leggy, lean, and graceful. I've heard the name, but I don't think I've ever seen one. Are they a seperate breed from Border Collies? She had a smooth coat,...

Akita...we think?
Okay, I hope you guys can help. We adopted what we *think* is an akita from a shelter about a week ago. The shelter picked him up as a stray and had no info on him. They had him labeled as an akita mix, but I think he's all akita...just a poorly bred one. The thing is, he has a few differences that...
