I totally agree. Kestrel and Chew are literally gorgeous, and of course all her other pets.


Thank you both so much!

I actually just got word today that the dam went into heat today! So soon there will be Border collie spam over absolutely everything because I have zero self control when it comes to puppies. Especially my own.

Ooooo, I can't wait to see BC puppies. I so love BC's. Not that Kestrel and Chew aren't adorable.

My shelter has this dog up for adoption as a GSD mix, but he looks like a purebred GSD to me. Like, a really pretty, well taken care of GSD. I feel like someone's missing him. I hope he has good owners who find him and take him back home. Geez, he's just so pretty.

^ I agree he does look like he could be purebred to me. Was he a stray? If he was a owner release maybe they know his parentage which is why he's labeled as a mix.

Yeah, he was a stray, not an owner surrender. That shelter is a bit weird about labeling, it's like they label all dogs mixes except the ones who look like obvious mixes.

ALso there's a litter of puppies and omg omg omg I can't. They're so cute. I've been watching them since they were a few days old. I really want to adopt one because the shelter can't keep them.

This one is named Nibbler.

Shelters have to do that.
Every dog that comes in is a mix unless they have papers from a previous owner because false advertising of whatever breed they could be.

My fiance's mom got a purebred mini schnauzer from the pound but he's written off as a mix because they didn't have any papers.
They did the breed thing through the vet and yeah. Purebred mini schnauzer. He's just a little short for some reason. His name is Lucky c:

My fiance's sister has a mini Schnauzer from a breeder, her name is Pepper, and Pepper is a couple inches taller than Lucky.

Lucky has very fabulous eyelashes and I love him so much? He has to snuggle all the time and I love him.
Perfect little lap dog :lol:


Also nibbler is a very fitting name for that puppy :lol:

when i lived in america, i had to give my basset to the shelter, we moved, and didn't know i could have signed her up as a ESA at the time >.> still mad at myself

they didn't have her papers i kept them and her collar and tag, the didn't claim her as a mix.

My shelter is horrible at labeling dogs,
its not even funny anymore. A dog was so obviously a bulldog and there were just like 'hmm....PITBULL' smh. There was also what really looked like a husky mix to me, really long muzzle, curled tail, blue eyes, very fluffy and I go and look at the dog's tag that's on the cage and it says pit bull....

At my shelter unless the dog is surrendered with kennel club papers it has to have mix within the breed name.

At my shelter they don't even say mix, a lot of the bull breed mixes just say "Pit Bull" Unless it's very very obviously not a staffy/ambully, then they'll say pit bull mix.
