    Help new pups

    hey all,I'm trying  to find out what kind of dogs these are.

    Found them on side the highway

     Look to be a month old or so

    • Gold Top Dog

     Terrier of some sort?

    I dont know but that red one can come live with me! He is adorable! They both are but I like red dogs.Big Smile

    We are keeping them,the  Red one is a boy(Rusty) the other is a girl (Jazziy).

    they where in bad shape just two days ago.We cleaned them and brought them to the vet to get check out.

    worms,fleas and some ticks.

    • Gold Top Dog

     They look like JRTs, to me. Maybe a JRT/Lakeland cross?  They're VERY cute! Have you owned littermates, before? Good luck! LOL That's a lot of work, and those are some lucky puppies to have found you!

    • Gold Top Dog

     I'm not much of a judge, but they look older than 4 weeks to me.... 

    In any case, who knows how long they have been away from their mum..... they were probably taken from her WAY too early.  Early socialisation is a MUST with these puppers, to avoid lifelong behavioural issues from being seperated from the dam too early.

    Both are ridiculously adorable, and more pictures are compulsory!

    not this young,We got our frist dog a year and a half ago(Sophie) she was 3 months old.This is her know

    She is JRT/Blue tick beagle mix.I hope she will be a good replacement mother.

    vet is calling them 6 weeks

     We have them in quarantine for two weeks

    • Gold Top Dog

    Gosh they're cute!  My guess is going ot be JRT/Daschund.  At least for  Rusty.  Something about his chest and front legs reminds me of a Daschund.

    he is short and long.  another said the samething

     I assume they are brother and sister

    • Gold Top Dog

    She has the look of a wire haired terrier.  And  yeah, brother and sister can have different dads and thus not look a thing alike.

    • Bronze

    different dads same litter?

    • Gold Top Dog

    I say JRT/Dachshund as well (with perhaps a third breed thrown in for good measure)

    • Gold Top Dog

    different dads same litter?

    Yep.  Believe it or not, it's possible for every pup in a litter could have a different father.  Doesn't happen very often, but it's possible!

    • Gold Top Dog

    Oh yeah, a bitch in heat is not terribly discriminating, and the boys don't seem to have any issue with "sloppy seconds".  I had two brothers, neither of whom looked like momma in any way....one was clearly shepherd mix and the other more pittie.
