Any clue as to what mix of breeds my dog Angel may be?




I adopted her last year and am just curious. She is about a foot tall and weighs about 25lbs. She is a little bit on the hyper side and loves to hunt and run.

10. If it has a yippy bark that drives you crazy
and it does it constantly, then it's a Sheltie.

11. I think your all correct about the American Eskimo
Edited on Thu May-27-04 10:04 AM by Wcross
I went to the AKC web site and the description fit her. She is the sweetest dog, she will give me a hug every once in a while and can't get enough attention. I adopted her last year when she was about two weeks away from having pups. Her daughter was also pregnant at about three weeks away. Now I am the proud friend of six dogs.



These are the three pups, Angels pups are the ones playing with each other. (Larry and Curly) The dog in the back is Moe, the pup of Angels daughter PeeDee.



This is Bud, father to all the pups.

By the way, they have all been spayed and nuetered. This is the end of the "bloodline" for these guys.
