He's obviously a MINIATURE wolfhound

Do it! Do it! and then wait to see how long it is before someone says to you 'Oh those are rare Icelandic Boxers'!

Go on, you know you want to!

some of these posts have made me laugh!

i wish people would guess jakes 'breed' more often, most people just ask what he is. although, someone once argued with me that he is a full BC... and ive been asked if he is a doberman x and a rottweiler!

gotta love people! I get really weird looks when I tell people Mouse is a pure bred mini Dachshund... you should hear some of the stuff people say! the most common tho is, I have never seen one that colour! to which I reply "good! this is a horrible colour, as a very high percentage of dogs this colour are deaf or blind or both" to which people say "oh is she blind?" and I reply "no she's deaf, but her eyesight, while being functional, isn't perfect" THEN it starts with the "oh poor dog" routine with me convincing people that she does in fact lead a full, happy life, and no she is not suffering, and actually doesn't know she's any different... it goes on from there often wit these exact questions: Does she bark?, How do you call her? and my fav of all time: How do you know she's deaf? I have a VERY hard time NOT answering "Umm, because she cant hear" LOL the next time I see those same people, I get "oh look, it's the blind dog!" Uggh! LOL but at least everyone walks away loving my little Mouse, and learning a little bit about deaf dogs, so I dont mind answering stupid questions!
