I can't believe no one suggested Skye terrier yet.

You have a strong point. His hair is a little shorter and coarser than a Skye's, and he has drop ears, and he's splayfooted rather than the Skye standard straight-ahead. But this one looks totally like Angus would have as a puppy, in my imagination (original page).

This is Dakota, a twelve-year-old Border Collie and GSD mix (the latter being undetermined but probably a safe bet) I brought home from the HSUS. :love: He's an absolute gentleman and means the world to my family to the extend that the only child hasn't been on family holiday cards since 1997.

He has moderate hip dysplasia that necessitated ramp constructions, but it doesn't stop him from tearing around the woods like mad from dawn to dusk.

Our lab/boxer mix (boxador?) Misty. He's nearly a year old now. We rescued him 6 months ago from a family that thought it normal to feed a puppy weetabix for breakfast and spaghetti bolognese, or whatever they'd had, for tea. He was skinny as a rake when we got him, but now look at him!


Daaaaaw.


Sleeping near the heater when our central heating broke down over Christmas.

This is my puppy. He just turned a year old; I adopted him shortly after he was born. A woman my mother works with was giving them away, so I decided to adopt him.

This is Buffy. She's a rat terrier mix, definitely some dachshund in there. I wonder what else...and where she came from, as she was a stray (that was picked up and taken to a shelter). :)

I love terriers. I have a Jack Russel Terrier of my own; she's definitely my favorite because she's so affectionate.

EDIT: is it wrong to have favorite pets? Never thought about that before.

Holy cow, he looks a lot like my weird little mutt. They said at the rescue that his mom was a boxer. Most of his litter mates had at least one blue eye, so they guessed husky. He got a thick-rear end undercoat for my birthday and a pretty fuzzy butt, but otherwise I don't see a lot of husky.

He definitely acts a lot like a boxer. He's really handsy and he looks around, bounces, and generally moves a lot like the boxers I've known. However! He's the chillest puppy I've ever met in my life. He'll run like a madman (butt-down-crazies) for a few minutes at the dog park, and he'll wrestle the old man's poor doggies all night and day if you let him, but for the most part, he's perfectly content to sit in your lap or at your feet and chew something appropriate.


Anyway, here's what he looks like. Oh, he's right at 8 months old now, and a little bigger than knee-high and just under 30 pounds.






This one ^ was a couple of months ago.


Ohhh the wee baby!


This one reminds me of the last one you posted. Westley (The Dread Pirate Roberts) gets that look on his face all the time!

No! Stop touching yourself!
This is scraps (the wirey fat one) and his brother zero (the long silky one). The people we adopted them from told us that they are litter mates and their mother was a Yorkie, but we have no idea what the father could have been. Every time I think I've pegged down what else one of them is mixed with, it doesn't fit with how the other dog looks. (for instance, we think scraps has some norfolk or norwich terrier in there, but zero looks nothing like either of those breeds.)
















Also, this one isn't mine, he belongs to my best friends. This is Sirius. We think he's chow and German or Dutch shepherd, maybe more Dutch to explain the brindle, but we don't know exactly. Either way he's a very friendly but very quirky/strange dog:

We thought there might be a bit of border terrier to him, because of his coat and the stocky-ness of his build and what not.

Interesting - I have Jack Russel Terrier/Mini Australian Shepard mixed mutts and they look pretty similar:

I miss both my mutts, now. It's been all cat for the past ten years. I love my purr-beasts, but they aren't interactive.

I think the coolest mutt I ever saw was a Rottweiler and Irish Wolfhound mix. Had the Rotty bulk and colouring, but the height and shagginess of the Irish. It's teeth were friggin' terrifying. I never asked, but it had to be in the ~180-200 lb. range. It emanated pure :black101:

I want a beastly canine. :(

Anybody wanna try and figure out what breed(s) my dog is?

He's from Taiwan and I think he looks a little bit like a Taiwanese Dog, but not completely. Also he's very small.


His mom and his sibling and him a long time ago.
Wish I knew what his dad looked like!



Better look at him and his siblings' faces when they were puppies.




Him now about a year old:






The rescue I got him from has no idea what he is, they guessed basenji or manchester terrier mix but I don't really see either.

I don't know a whole lot about Thailand, but from what I do know, isn't it most likely that your dog is 100% mutt with no trace of anything purebred?

Anyway um mutts are mixes. Of breeds.

Anyway this is a Bunan Taiwanese Dog


Looks pretty similar to Sammy actually but different ear and tail shape.

Taiwanese Mountain Dogs/Formosan Dog is a breed native to Taiwan.

There's an outfit called Ocean Dog Rescue in my area that deals exclusively with Taiwanese dogs, and almost all of them are described as Manchester Terrier or Basenji or both, no matter what they look like. I imagine your place probably gets their dogs from the same source. I wonder why they picked on those two breeds in particular.

One of my friends has the craziest dog. It's a jet-black Great Dane/Boxer cross.

If you just saw the dog from the neck back you would swear it was a full blood great dane. Super tall, smooth coat, long thin tail. But the head is all boxer. It honestly looks like someone took a boxer's head and slapped it on a great dane's body. It is hilarious. Wish I had a picture.

Yeah that's gotta be the same rescue. I think it's a large rescue in Taiwan and they have overseas rescues which have no shelters/fosters/etc who communicate with the Taiwanese people to get them sent over to Socal, BC, etc. Mine was called Sweet Home Rescue based out of Irvine, CA. Some of those dogs look just like Sammy :P At this point I'm just thinking Sammy is some kinda Formosan Mountain Dog mix which has become it's own breed almost in Taiwan. There's a ton of dogs that look just like him, but not like the 100% pure Taiwanese Dog.

I got a dog! :neckbeard:





We were told he's a Wirehair Daschund X Yorkshire Terrier. Seems likely enough, but neither of those really seem to account for his giant mis-matched ears or his extra-long tail, which he carries in a big curl over his back when he walks (loose curl like an Akita, not a tight curl like a Pug).

PI pacification list ;)
-was adopted from the local shelter
-is already neutered
-is in the process of transitioning from lovely shelter food to Wellness Small Breed
-will be enrolled in the shelter’s next basic obedience class, which starts in ~2 months
-has a 3b/2bath house to roam, and a ¼ acre fenced in yard to play in
-will be visiting the local dog park frequently once he finishes his shots (shelter estimated him at ~10-12 months old, but he’s only just had his first round of vaccines)

Yeah thanks, pretty sure I was aware of that and hopefully you knew what I was getting at and not just being snarky. Not that there isn't a purebred *somewhere* in the dog's pedigree but that its physical characteristics are a mix without anything to help decide if its great-great-great-grandpa was a basenji.

Do you really think a street dog from Taiwan is part Manchester terrier? Its cute that the rescue is trying to label them as such but its ok to have an exotic Taiwanese mutt :3:

I don't think mutts are always mixes of breeds. I don't think all pariah dogs in Afrida are a mix of basenji etc.

Spike sits formally



And every night he puts the Chickens to bed, the comand is "Spike Chickens!" and he herds them up into their coup, all we have to do is latch the gate.

I'm getting a strong shih-tzu vibe off his expression in both pictures - the eye/brow configuration seems very typical, plus the air of long-suffering sadness. Shih-tzus grieve like no-one else...
