    Greyhound/Rottie mixes!?

    Wow! I never saw that coming?
    Did you see the mom and dad? I wonder if they were mixes themselves. (Greyhound mix and Rottie mix)

    I agree with you Angie. I might be blind, but I cant see any rottie. I do see pit bull though. The wrinkles in the forehead and the eyes remind me a lot of Ebonys. Escribador posted a picture of one of the dogs in dog general when she was a pup. I could really see the pit bull. I could be wrong though I'm not all that good at guessing dog breeds.

    She sure is an adorable girl!

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    I didn't even try to guess! I just came to say, Eris and Grace, what precious puppy girls you are and I hope you grow up to be beautiful (well, remain beautiful!), healthy and enjoy long, happy lives! I bet you like to take walks and run, run, run! Please don't run near the street, though, okay? Maybe your people will give you a pet for me because you are SO CUTE!!!

    We saw pics of the mom and she was alllll Rottie. She looked to be pretty big too. We did not, however, get a pic of dad so we have to take it on the word of the family who had them.

    Now, I have found one other set of pictures online of this same mix of breeds.
    They are on Flickr here. If you go to the second page he has some pics of Kali when she was a puppy, and pics fo her litter to. They definitley look like our girls. Also gives me some idea how big they might get too.

    As a side note, my Dad made a good joke when I told him about the pups. I told him the mix and he said "Well the mom would have to be the Rott. I don't think it would have worked the other way around."

    It's funny, in the first picture you posted, her eyes and expression say "Greyhound" to me, but in the older pictures you posted, I don't see it nearly as much. Let me get Shais_mom over here, I bet she'd see the same, as a former Greyhound owner!

    I was going to guess greyhound and ridgeback. Rottie is definatly a shock. They sure are cute.

    I know this is a little off subject but, as for being a "rare hybrid" that is the last thing I want to hear.

    True, but it sounded a little better in my head than "Strange Muts".

    There's nothing wrong with Mutts, if you don't like that word, then you can say they are mixed breeds.

    Technically speaking... a Hybrid is a mix of 2 different species, so there is no such thing as a Hybrid when you're talking about a dog that is mixed with different breeds of dog.
