Who has a pure-breed?

[mugsy]

Well, let's see...

2 full Great Danes (one from the shelter and one found in an alley)
1 full Aussie (from the shelter)
1 full Beagle (from a stupid neighbor who wouldn't know how to take care of a dog if he tried)
1 full Toy American Eskimo (found running on the side of the road)
1 full Weimaraner (from a shelter where he had come from an abusive home)

The rest are mixes (who are the absolute best)

Have had...

2 full Pit Bulls (don't deserve the reputation they have, but can be a problem....ours came from fighting backgrounds and we couldn't get it out of them)

1 full Cocker Spaniel (found running the neighborhood, but sadly was killed by one of the Pits...and NOT the Pit's fault...the fault lie with the abusive SOB that had him before)

Fortunately, or unfortunately, I don't pay attention to breed standards or temperments, so I'm not all that familiar. I know some, and like you said Barbiro, it's the individual dog, not necessarily the breed.

Our dog Sara is a Boxer and supposed to be pure-breed...
alot of people think she's a Pit Bull though.

It's wonderful to hear from all of you but I need your feedback posted here:

My Forum

under:

BREED-SPECIFIC OPINIONS & FEEDBACK

Just open up a topic for your breed and copy and paste the information there

If someone has opened a thread for your breed, just add your 2 cents

done!

[Barbiro]

Thanks.

PS: Now they're asking you questions

[manda99]

Hey, that's OK with me. But I'm NOT an expert!

[Barbiro]

No experts there, just owners! Hey, it's appreciated. Pit Bulls are very misunderstood by the general population. I'm hoping to attract a few owners who will contradict that perception. Thanks for the feedback.

[mugsy]

Ok, done...now everyone there is going to think I'm a nutcase!! lol

[Barbiro]

We're not looking for experts on all breeds, just owners who can provide their feedback. That is so wonderful that you can talk about so many breeds -- now all you need is to post some pictures of each Get ready to be bombarded with questions.

Thanks and enjoy.

I posted about Shelties. Hee hee. Gotta love them.

[Barbiro]

Is it true Shelties nip people's heels?

I have a Labrador Retreiver puppy from Rosebud Kennels. All of her parents are yellow labs. (she is too,) Rosebud Kennels has 7 generations. including some of the top English Labs in America. Her father is King Athurs Reflections of Camelot. My puppy is the most purebred dog I know!

It's funny you should mention a Labrador Retriever, as that is my featured pet of the week. He is really beautiful.
