Bug! We were told by the shelter that he was a yorkie/maltese cross, but who the hell knows. He's bigger than either of those two breeds by a bit and his bone structure is much more solid. My best guess is silky/something big-boned. Like many of the people in this thread, I too get stopped by strangers and asked what breed is he and where they can get one, especially when his hair is at full shag. At times he looks like a miniature, washed-out Briard, and at times like a miniature colored English sheepdog. His vets like to comment favorably on his confirmation and build, and that's one of the things I've always liked about him. This is a good thing because he has shockingly bad judgment as to depths and distances. He's fallen down stairs, jumped four feet down and landed badly, run full-speed into everything, and somehow he just gets up and goes running off into the next immovable object. At almost 12, he has some very mild joint stiffness that we take care of with a supplement but that's it, and I was convinced that he would have leapt to his death by adolescence at least.
