Look for help identifying breed.

• Look for help identifying breed. indigogal Posted : 1/22/2008 9:02:29 AM We rescued George recently and the SPCA identified him as an Old English Sheepdog mix. Because of his size at 9 months, we suspect he may be a Tibetan Terrier. Can anyone help us identify him? His photo is attached to my profile.

• indigogal Posted : 1/22/2008 9:18:17 AM He weighs about 23 lbs, has large flat feet, is extremely athletic (more than the average puppy) and has a combination bark and howl, all traits which appear to be consistent with the Tibetan Terrier. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• indigogal Posted : 1/23/2008 11:48:07 AM Thanks for the help. The breed seems to have a great range in characteristics (e.g., coat can be straight or curly) and the photos I found varied even among the purebreds. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• rwbeagles Posted : 1/23/2008 11:52:35 AM Given their overall rarity? No....I'd suspect something more like one of the "Poo (dle)" mixes that are clogging shelter's currently. One thing I'd suggest is contacting the breed club and sending them the pic. They look at TT's all day long and would be a great authority on it. Here's the pic so we have it in thread... 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• ColleenC Posted : 1/23/2008 2:40:35 PM  I agree with the "poo"  Its kind of hard to tell in that picture, but possibly a "shih-poo."  Which is a Shih Tzu/Poodle cross.  0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• indigogal Posted : 1/25/2008 9:21:24 AM Thanks again for the help. The only reason we want to know is be be aware of any potential health issues inherent to the breed. I will contact the experts. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
