It's not surprising, it's just how this guy is... about EVERYTHING. He's horrible about it and I've witnessed him lying to someone about the simplest things.

After seeing those other pictures, it would make you curious wouldn't it?
Are you sure Moo's not a Rotti/Golden?They do have DNA tests
for dogs now. Don't know how expensive they are, but they work to identify
breeds. What ever he is, he's a cutie.![]()

Kay,
No matter what his heritage/background Mufasa is where he belongs - with you and your familySometimes not so great things happen with the best of intentions - in this case, the outcome is ideal
Moo has a perfect home and he is a happy boy - we can all be grateful for that

Kay, it does make sense that he might be a nice mix of a German Shepherd and a Golden Retriever. What a terrific mix of two very special breeds.
What I know is that he has the perfect home, with the perfect mom!![]()
At our clinic, the DNA tests are $200. At another local clinic, it costs about $170. Vet clinics pay about $80 but they charge you twice that, which is about $160+. I've seen some results and I really doubt the accuracy of the test, to be honest. But it's interesting nonetheless =)Originally Posted by lizbud
You know, I think it could be a possibility, but are the dogs male and female? I always thought Mufasa was an Aussie mix too, but golden and aussie mixes look pretty similar![]()
Does it matter?
Mufasa is an amazimg guy in his own right, so truly what does his parentage have to do with anything?
And he he has a great Mum so let it lie, and just do what he does ......adore those that love you.
Merry Holidays to One an All Blessed be
Have you ever owned a mutt and been curious as to what he/she was?
Have you ever had someone lie to you constantly and wonder about the truth?
That's why it matters.![]()

You call Mufasa a mutt?!
That just sounds so demeaning.

Mufasa is such a beautiful boy! I'd be appreciative just to have such a wonderful dog as he is, no matter the breed.![]()
I understand, Kay. For example, I take Ginger to the dog park and often get asked what kind of dog she is. Me: American Eskimo mix. Other person: Mixed with what? Me: We are not really sure. She resembles the Eskie side so much it makes it tough to tell. Other person: What is your best guess?This conversation takes place at two or three times a year. I guess it would be nice to give people a better answer.
Besides this would give you a better idea of Mufasa's background before you met him. Something all rescue Moms wonder about (like if we knew what happened before we can somehow be a better mom now).
There was that home test you can do, but it was about $69.99, I think.

All the time. Although I do know what 1/2 of Layla is.Originally Posted by Kfamr
I could believe the Shepherd/Golden mix. But just wondering,how much does Moo weigh? A Shepherd and a Golden would be about 60-75 lbs, maybe? Wouldn't he be a bit bigger if these two were his parents? Just a thought.

I doubt some of the results of the DNA tests as well. I read an article in a vet magazine we get at the clinic and it had pictures and results. A couple I could see and the others were just silly. For example one was a Puli/Afghan Hound/Rough Collie/Glen of Immal Terrier. I just find that mix to be extreamly hard to believe. And the dog looked like a shepherd mix of sorts.Originally Posted by Giselle
Either way, Moo is a handsome boy and lucky to have you as his mummy. Maybe you could talk to your co-worker again and see if you can get the truth out of them.

That sucks that he had to lie to you, but at the same time, Moo was meant to come to you or he would not be with you. It can be very frustrating when you are not sure what the breed of your dog is, and people constantly asking. Like does it reallllllly matter what he is, why do they have to ask...lol I get it all the time with Reilly, most people assume he is a Rottie mix, and are totally shocked when I tell them not according to the vet...lol I have gotten to where anymore if someone ask, I say you could not tell you and dont really care, he is our baby and that is what matters. But I do get where you are coming from though. Give that handsome man some loving from me and a high five from Reilly.
They looks very very similar, have you thought of messaging the girl and asking her straight up if they are? How long have you have him now, maybe she will finally give you some info about it.
P.S. Mufasa is a pretty darn cute, almost as cute as my mutts!![]()
