I found a puppy in my yard on September 13, 2008. His eyes weren't even open yet when I found him. He is 5 months old now and I'm still trying to figure out what all he might have in him. I weighed him yesterday and he is currently 46.8 lbs at 5 months old. He is black and white (mostly black with white on his face, belly, feet, and the tip of his tail). He has the cutest ears that stick up and fall over right at the tip which is really funny because when he is glancing up at you his ears fall completely open. Also, his tail is tightly curled. Any guesses? I have attached a couple pics.
oh the nose sticking in at the bottom of the one picture of me holding him? That is my 5 year old border collie mix. Ike is as big as she is already and the only thing they seem to have in common is the coloring.
possible some lab or hound in there?....I'm not the best at this....there are some collie/bc people on here maybe they would have a better eye...stick around they will pop in
there is definitely a good bit of BC in there....i'm trying to think of what els could be there to give him his size, but definitely BC....here's my pup, Titch (well he's a yr old now) and you can see the distinct similarities in the face/expression (he weighs 43# and is 20")....maybe something like Pyrenees or Kuvasz (altho the latter not real likely)
i still say BC w/ something else larger in him.....according to one of those, he's already at the weight of a full grown Bear Dog....and they are quite a rare breed, as well.....
Cute dog. You never know! I thought our dog Roy was mostly border collie (but he's 70 #!). However, DNA testing showed he is a total mutt. He is 30% dalmation, and then has DNA (less than 20%) for the following breeds: border collie, Great Dane, Bernese Mountain Dog, beagle.
yeah, i could see the Akita being a possibility.....or Mal (rather than Husky, b/c of size).....
as for the DNA aspect....i'd kinda take that w/ a grain of salt....i just don't think that they're all that accurate, yet, unless you go the high priced route, not the cheek swab.....and, even then, w/ the fact that it took different breeds to create these breeds of today.......
also, keep in mind that the BC can range from 25-65#.....
border collie mix. karelian bear dogs are very, very rare, and it is extremely unlikely that there'd be a karelian bear dog wandering around impregnating random strays.
I waited until my puppy was 6 months old to start giving him Greenies 'cause that's what the package says. I have several friends who give their dogs them and they all love them. At first my dog did too - acted like it was a special treat and went off and devoured it. After about a week...
So I adopted a 14 year old yorkie over a week ago and I don’t know what to make of our relationship. I live by myself and he is very clingy. He follows me everywhere and cries when he is apart from me. He likes to lay on the bed with me and will whine until I put him on the bed. He is always...
So me and the wife were looking around for dog training to do at home with our new husky, and we came across this program to do at home called Brain Training. Has anybody else tried this before? We’d like to know before purchasing. Thanks here’s the link we found...
Vrijheid's Worth the Wait... "Braeburn"
Oh man, I already have so many stories I don't know where to start. But in a nutshell, he's an amazing pup. He will be a lot of work, but I already cannot wait to see the dog he will become. I sort of theoretically understood how working dogs could be...
Well, I thought Piggy was bad abut eating money before, with the "penny poop" escapade. But today she took the cake, to the tune of $300. I'll be toothless for a day or two. She chewed up my partial denture! My fault, should have put it in a safer place.
So how much money has you pet chewed up...
