What breed is your dog?

Mixed breed dogs are everywhere, especially in shelters. Most of the time, dog owners have no idea what breed their dog is. Either they are left guessing (and are usually wrong) or they only know the prominent breed - like a Lab mix. Most rescues have multiple dog breeds in them, which is exactly what makes it hard to determine the kind of dog they are.

However, sometimes you will come across a dog that only have two breeds in them. I don't mean "designer dogs" like the Maltipoo (Maltese/Poodle), where the traits are well known. I'm talking about when you come across a random dog where it's so blatantly obvious which breeds it came from and sometimes, how weird the combination can be.

I went to the dog park awhile back and saw the most strange, yet hilarious mixed breed ever. The two breeds that came together to make this dog were unmistakable. He had a Corgi body and an honest to god, FULL German Shepard head, tail and coloring with the long hair. To put it in more simple terms...it was a German Shepard on a Corgi frame.

The reason I am sharing this with you is because I have recently stumbled across another obvious mix that is very dear to me. Why is she dear to me? Because of my love of the Border Terrier (Emmitt is a Border Terrier) and of the small Riley type (my minpin who everyone mistakes as a Chihuahua).

Meet Baci...she is a Border Terrier/Chihuahua mix. Seriously, she is really cute. It is sooooo obvious as to what kind of dog this is. It's hilarious. She has the body, coloring and head of a Chihuahua, however, she has the hair, ears, mustache, eyes and tail of a Border Terrier.


Now...tell me she isn't the most darling thing ever! Wow, I mean...sometimes she even resembles a little man, like Emmitt does. Nothing but cuteness coming from her...you should see her in person.

Oh yeah...she is real smart too. She goes to her place already!

Those of you who don't know what "go to your place" is...it's only the best command ever! Email me to find out! (wink wink) ;)

By the way...want some more cuteness? This is the other mixed breed that is comprised of my other two favorites...meet Riley...
