Any guess on what hes mixed with? I see Duck Toller , and maybe a hint of Border Collie?

[dab_20]

He is VERY cute!! He definatly looks like he's a toller/border collie. Looks alot like Orangutango's dog, Tango!!

[Sadie_Sasha]

what does he look like?

Orangutango is the first person on this thread above. Her dog looks like that except a different color. Tango is a toller/border collie mix.

[Sadie_Sasha]

cool

Ill find out when mom comes home from work if she wants to adopt him.

And If so we`ll probally go down tomorrow to met him and take Sasha with us to met him see how they react to each other. *crosses fingers*

[dab_20]

Well I hopw you get the puppy. He is such a little cutie. So do you think he is a toller/BC? Good Luck, I am rooting for yah!

[Sadie_Sasha]

Thanks
Yea, Im thinking mostly Toller though.
his colloring, but the amount of white on his head and chest kinda says BC, Either way, I WANT HIM!

[dab_20]

LOL, were you and your mom planning to get a dog? His color says toller, I agree. But he is just too darn cute!

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

I don't think it looks like my Tango at all...lol. I do see *some* Toller though, definitely not purebred. Good luck!

[Sadie_Sasha]

weve been talking about it.
My dad is up in Ontario for work, and wed like some extra comfert in the house knowing if anything happened we have 2 dogs to protect us, But also, I want another to keep sasha company because she LOVES to play with other dogs, and I mean, its not that much more work.
If you take one dog for a walk, You take two.
You take one in the car, you take two.

hes not house traned, But thats nothing, and he needs obediance, But I did clicker traning with Sasha so I can do it myself with the new puppy.

Oh, well I thought he kinda looks like Tango. lol

[dab_20]

I found one dog that looks similar to the puppy, same color and stuff. It is toller/border collie mix.

I also wanted to add that Tollers sre still not a very popular breed so the possibility of him actually having any Toller at all is very slim even though he resembles one. He could very well be a purebred Border Collie or a BC mix. Too bad there isn't a better picture of him...

[Sadie_Sasha]

Wow,.. He does look like The dog im intersted in..

awsome. Best of both breeds. :)

[Corinna]

Looks like golden ret. and some kind of spaneil to me.

[buttercup132]

hmm wat ever he is hes SUPER CUTE! i hope you can adopt him

hmm... oh well! lol

hfdsa sdiaifpas, oops sorry that was sammy. lol

[Alysser]

First off, I think he is beautiful and congratulations on gettting such a beauty! I see some Toller and maybe Golden?Husky?

[Sadie_Sasha]

Mom is a little iffy right now.
She was all for it at work but got home and changed her mind.. WTF??

Ill work on her some more.

[dab_20]

lol.

you can tell her the advantage of this: when we had just molli she always bothered me to play with her when i got home and stuff. when sammy came i don't have to play with her when i don't want to because sammy will:D

so if your mom gets bothered with your dog wanting to play 24/7 then thats an advantage. ;)

[k9krazee]

Hmmm, I don't think he looks much like a Toller...or Tango, lol...I definately see Border collie or BC mix...

[IRescue452]

Lab/border collie maybe. How old is the pup? Its a tough picture but he looks huge! I'd definately guess lab before toller.

How did you know that Tango was mixed with Toller, then? (Not being rude, just simply wondering :) )


Its a tough picture but he looks huge!
LOL. I thought he looked small. Like 30-40 lbs.

[dab_20]

yah same here. He looks only about 30 pounds.

I get asked that a lot, I know both of Tango's parents. A friend of ours owns a Toller who she was going to show upon the breeders request, while she was at work one day her husband let Dez (Toller) outside to play with the neighbours (good friend of theirs) Border Collie as he often does but forgot Dez was in season so Tango is from an accidental litter....

Ah, I see. What's wierd is that I barely see either breed in her. Thanks for explaining :)

[CagneyDog]

Just curious, what breeds to you see in her?

I see some Toller...and I see a bit of border collie

[dab_20]

so do I. I think she looks like both :D

[.sarah]

Really, I'm not sure. I can kind of see BC in her nose/mouth, and I see Toller in her ear shape. I haven't seen a ton of pictures of her, though. She just looked like a classic mutt to me ;)

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

She just looked like a classic mutt to me ;)

lol...she looks like a mutt to me also, even though I know what she is I don't see a whole lot of either breed in appearance. She certainly has the personality of both breeds though!

How funny! Do you ever see any of her siblings? And if so, do they look like Tango at all?

[Tollers-n-Dobes]

We have 2 get togethers each year (B-day and in the summer) and she sees one of her brothers, Winter quite often because my Aunt and Grandma own him. She does look similar to one brother (Shadow) but the rest don't really look like her. I'll PM you a couple pics of her family since this thread is way off topic now...lol

[Sadie_Sasha]

The more I look at the handsome fellow, I see more and more BC.
Were going down in about 20 mins to go look at him and get Sasha to met him. :)

I think mom is still going to say no though. But Today is his last day on earth if we dont get him or someone else, hes going to be put down . :(

Im going to cry

[Sadie_Sasha]

and I also think hes only about 30 pounds. Which is the PERFECT size dog for me and my parents.

[lv4dogs]

Looks like a medium sized dog, also looks young. I bet he's got a lot of energy & brain just waiting to be used!

I see BC on him for sure, I don't really see too much of anything else in him. Maybe a little spaniel or something. Its hard to tell from that pic. I also doubt that he's got toller in him, maybe but like mentioned above they are not too popular.

Sorry to hear your moms not to keen about the subject now. Just keep showing her how resposible you are & when the time is right for everyone you will have your new family member!

[IRescue452]

How old is he though? It looks like hes still got a bit of growing to do.

[Sadie_Sasha]

Hes about 9 months.

We went to see him today and he looks nothing like his pic.
hes super skinny and has a really short corse coat, and he actually reminds me of a beagle.

Mom said no to getting him.
But she did say that she`ll keep an eye out for a dog that looks like Sasha and we`ll get one. :)
