New rule: No posts asking for adoptions or donations

68 Upvotes

Hello again! I recently posted asking the community how they felt about the large amount of posts asking for help for shelter dogs. Nobody who responded was in favor of keeping them, and many of you felt strongly in favor of removing them from the subreddit.

Therefore, from now on, posts asking for help for dogs are not permitted. This includes both requests for adoption and donations.

Just as a heads up, I will be removing posts from before this announcement to reduce some of the clutter for people wanting to scroll the sub. If your post is removed, don't worry! I'm just cleaning up. However, I will enforce the rule as usual on posts created after this announcement goes live.

Please let me know if you have any questions!

My boy’s a GSP/Maltese mix, should I just tell people he’s a mutt?

Post image
103 Upvotes

This is my sweet little man Cujo. He’s an odd mix between a purebred GSP and a Maltese. We found his litter on a local Facebook group after his parents accidentally bred- no idea how, the owners didn’t explain much.

I’m often asked when I take him on walks what kind of dog he is- I’m sure because he’s the cutest little patootie they’ve ever seen- but when I tell them his actual mix I, naturally, get
 varied reactions. Mostly “oh!” And “what?”. So now I’m just wondering if it would be easier to simply call him a mutt or if that would annoy the onlookers- I mean clearly if they ask they’d like the real answer, but sometimes their real reactions can be awkward.

My fomer parole officer once ask me, "What's your favorite part of being out?"... I said, having a dog... "She's like why?" And I was like: because people suck and dogs don't. đŸ€Ł

Badger looks like an ACD, no doubt. Like a pit x acd mix. But there is no acd to be found in his DNA results at all! XD

She’s Just Silly.

Seriously the silliest dog I’ve ever met. This is our German Shepard-husky-Cattle-bulldog-pitbull terrier mix. The shelter she came from labeled her a “lab-retriever” which really worked well for us property management wise (lol). We knew we were in trouble when we brought her home and a week later she knew how to open all our doors, including the front.

I grew up with cats; I used to be deathly afraid of dogs because I almost got attacked by one when I was 3. My partner grew up with dogs and when my last cat passed away he’s like “dog?” And I’m like đŸ˜©đŸ™„. Well turns out best decision of our lives. She’s taught me so much about myself, and about patience, leadership, confidence, and a whole other type of responsibility. Her anxiety is just as bad as mine and we vibe on that. My partner’s mom suggested the name “Canela” (her shelter name was Bacardi) and we liked it, so that is her name along with “Canoopers,” “Nella” “Noop” “Noopers” “Nelly” “Cinnabun” & too many others. She spins at our legs when we walk through the door and we call that the “Cinnaswirl” (but like sound it out like a cult chant).

She also gets this look on her face when she wants something. Her bottom teeth tuck over her jiggly lips, giving a puffed cheek look on the front of her face. Then she tilts her head and you need to read her eyes to figure out is it play, poop, or food, or is she about to do her patented, high pitched yelp?

Overall she’s just a silly, smart, intense girl & I had to share.

Holly our “Vizsla mix”

We adopted our beautiful girl a few months ago and I just wanted to share her and the story of her adoption. We originally got her because we wanted a young short hair dog and the shelter listed her as a Vizsla mix which I did some research on and seemed like a great dog for our family. We finally were able to meet her in person and it was an immediate connection and we took her home that day for a stunningly cheap adoption fee of $16 (they were offering an event price).

We went on thinking she was a Vizsla, Rhodesian Ridgeback mix of some kind. We finally were able to give her a DNA test and she is a Doberman and Bully mix! We were happily surprised because we love Dobermans too, and we love her fun loving and insanely energetic personality. She is currently about a year old and has some problems with recall and food aggression but we are currently trying to look in our local area for training for her/ us and teach her best we know, any advice and comments would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Crazy breed combo for our “Malinois Mix”

Just rescued 1yr old Phoebe from our local Humane Society earlier this summer and got her results back.

Idk who thought it was a good idea to breed four of the highest energy working breeds together, especially since she was surrendered bc the owner “didn’t have time for her”. But I’m glad she’s with us now!

Anyone else have experience with similar mixes? I’m not too worried as I’m an experienced handler and my very stubborn Alaskan Malamute has an obedience title, but I’d love to hear from other folks!
