Love those Mutts
"This is our dog "Frodo" at 1 year old. His mother is a mix between a Sheltie and a Papillon (a Shelillon) and his father is af mix between a Chihuahua and a Papillon (a Chion). Frodo weighs around 10 pounds (4.5 kg.). He is about the same height as our cat (whom he adores). He is a very sweet-tempered and bright dog. Always in the mood for kissing, carressing, playing or learning stuff. He likes to run very fast, and our cat has trained him to hunt with her. He looks a little bit silly when he tries to sneak in on something, but the other day he caught a mouse before she did (and he don't play with them like she does!). His hair is very easy to hold - we only give him baths when he is really muddy like after a walk. He is extremely friendly, espescially to other animals (our rabbit and him are pals too) and children. It is great to walk him in the pedestrian area - downtown in the city, every one says, "What a charming little dog" and wants to say hello, and he sure loves the attention!!" _______________________________
"Lady, the Pit Bull Mix at 4 months old. We adopted her at 8 weeks old from a rescue shelter, where she and her other littermates had been taken after found abandoned at just 7 weeks old." "Honestly I think if my husband had known Lady was a pit bull mix before we had adopted her, he probably wouldn't have agreed to adopt her. Because like most of the population, my husband and I thought pit bulls were aggressive dogs and with our three cats and four young boys under the age of 8, that wouldn't have been a good fit for our family." "The vet's office have more or less confirmed that she is a pit bull mix, and just from looking at her as she gets older and bigger - she favors the pit bull breed quite a bit!" "As for the cats, she likes to pester them but only to play. She has gotten close enough to sniff at them before (usually they run, they unfortunately do NOT like her!) and she never nips or bites at them, but just likes to sniff them and play with them, her tail a wagging. One of our cats will actually chase Lady when Lady gets on her nerves enough! Its quite funny seeing a cat chasing a pit bull!" "Her training, which we have done all on our own and through watching/reading about the Dog Whisperer's techniques, has gone very well. She sits for any treat automatically now without us having to prompt her, stays, lays down and walks right next to me on the leash when I am pushing the stroller to take her for a walk. At first she would whimper and refuse to walk past houses with other dogs but now she just trots by with her head held high!" "We are pit bull lovers now and are very glad we adopted her. We look forward to the future with our new family pet!"
"I adopted Sandi 2 years ago at the local animal shelter when she was 2 - 2 1/2 years-old. I thought I wanted a little dog, but I couldn't resist that cute face! She was brought in as a stray and had just had puppies. She is not very good at fetching but great at playing "keep away." My husband or I take her on walks every day. She is a high-energy girl! She prettty much ignores other dogs and people unless they get in her face. If they are polite, she is polite. We also have three cats, two of which avoid her and one which sometimes plays with her. People ask, "Is that a Pit Bull?" I guess she is MOSTLY Pit, but she did not come with papers. I really don't care. She is my sweetie!"
"I took this picture of my Australian Cattle Dog/Doberman mix after I rescued him from the animal shelter. Cisco had been a resident at the shelter for 4 months when I adopted him. He is about 2 years old in this picture, and is the sweetest, most mellow dog I have owned. He is unique looking in his own way, he's been called many things, the most common are mutant dog or frankendog (I think he's beautiful)." _______________________________
"This is Max, we had just picked him up from the humane society about 2 1/2 days before this picture was taken. This picture is of him enjoying the snow. He is what we think may be a Spitz mix (not sure of anything else). He is about 2-ish. He is the most easy going dog I've ever been around, and I already trust him to be "free" while I sleep, actually I fell asleep on the couch the first night we had him. He slept the whole time, as far as I know (no "accidents" in the house and nothing chewed up or anything). When I awoke at 4 a.m. he was laying by the front door. The next night while I was at work (I work 3rd shift) my boyfreind fell asleep on the couch, and when he woke, he found him sleeping on our comfy chair (where my boyfriend usually sits) and still no accidents or problems at all. Just such an easy going dog. He loves to take walks and enjoys the snow and our goats! Amazingly, so far, he has been very calm when we've taken him to our barn. Just such a well mannered little guy!"
"Wasabi is a mix of Shar-pei + pit bull, shown here at 4 years old, and a rescue. He likes bike riding, jogging, swimming, boating & car rides. He runs on average 5 miles a day. He has an excellent temperament with kids & other dogs. We went through extensive training on how to train Wasabi for dog obedience."
