What breed?

A few months ago I had this dog offered to me. A family had two dogs, and we're getting evicted because they got the dogs, and knew they weren't supposed to have her. Anyways they were just going to leave her there, so now she's mine :)

Anyways, here she is, she's the black and white one:

YouTube - Rowdy and Rusty

I'm going to be uploading more videos of Rowdy soon... In about an hour... I was just wondering, what breed do you think she is?

Another video:

Awww Rowdy is so adorable! :3

Thanks!

Lindsey and Melissa said Jack Russell Terrier, and I think that's what she is!

She is a terrier mix.

We think so too :)

I can't tell very well from the videos but I think there is some Springer in there as well.

I don't see terrier. I see beagle, perhaps some spaniel or border collie or lab. Head shape is very beagle, ears too, tail set is classic beagle. The face looks a little bit cocker spaniel, but commonly lab mixs tend to end up with that sort of face also.

maybe a spaniel/terrier mix...

Ah... So confusing!

I guess it'll remain a mystery?

:) :D

You can buy DNA kits now for dogs where you swipe the inside of their mouth with what looks like a long q-tip and mail it in a special envelope. We did it for our Heinz 57 and the report was very interesting. Kit cost about $49 I think (it was a funny Christmas gift).

Lol!

Do you know where you got it??

I bought one for my dog, and they told me he was a mutt - LOL. :cool: They offered a re-test for free, when they added more breeds about a year later... still said he was nothing, so he's either too "watered-down" or a very uncommon breed. Fun idea though, if it works!

You can buy them in some pet shops, like Petco I believe, and vet offices usually have a few versions...

I got mine online at this site: http://www.canineheritage.com/

Oh, but I'm thinking about trying this test instead, when I have a little extra money... http://www.wisdompanel.com/
They test for more breeds than the others, including the one I suspect most (Cattle Dog) - which HeritageDNA still doesn't test for. It's become one of my life's big mysteries, and I just HAVE to solve it! :D

P.S. I think your new puppy could have any/all of the following breeds: Springer Spaniel, Border Collie, Petit Basset Griffon, Beagle, and/or Basset Hound. Super cute!! :)

I don't see cattle dog in her AT ALL.

I see beagle for the ears, basset hound for the body shape, and some kind of spaniel for the color. But, I can't tell if she's got long hair or not. If it's really short, I can see something like a smooth fox terrier in her too.

PBGbees aren't exactly common, so you're not very likely to get that as a result, but it would be neat if you did.
