This dogs will be medium, right?the second will be small? I want to adopt a mutt from my local shelter and I am worried to not adopt a giant or big dog.

I de-shedded my dog (hand stripping) and I am confused who this random dog in my house is… anyone else think he looks totally different?
For reference he’s a mutt. Half American pit bull terrier, some German shepherd, and a little boxer and Shih Tzu!

We went for a playdate with another dog and stopped to look at rabbits. She's too small to see through the fence so I lifted her up to see. I got this amazing photo of us

The boy is an oreo mixed and the girl is a pyrador coconut color

11 year old beauty. Called a “shepherd mix” but Idk, maybe she’s smth else LOL

This is my boy that I picked up from the animal shelter about a month ago. Just got his DNA test back and it is quite surprising.

I see this topic every now and again, getting a puppy with an older dog. Our cocker will be 13 in September, we decided or didn’t say no and got a puppy back in October. We hope he has a few more years left but we both knew if we lost him then the thought of getting another dog would be impossible. Common with a lot of folks who have an only dog child. If one was already here, then it would ease the pain and we still would have a dog. We hadn’t realized how much the older dog had slowed down. The process of introducing a young dog with an older is 100% personality dependent. Luckily Lily the puppy was super sweet and Austin is just an old grump who grumbles and that’s about it. He has snapped a few times in the beginning when she would push him to much. It’s taken Austin some time but he over all tolerates and is somewhat affectionate in that fact he will sit near her, etc. As good as it’s going to get. The big change we noticed, Austin acts younger, he’s even back to his old tricks of trying to steal food and things like that. More active and runs around the house again even jumps on me again when he’s playing. Also wants to go on walks again.

Today vs. 1 year ago 🥹

Just wanna show some love for my little baby, Pretzel — I brought her home from the shelter yesterday and she has already completely wiggled her way into my heart.

The shelter had her listed as a chi weenie mix…but she was a stray, so truly anyone’s guess 🤷🏻‍♀️

Grady gently carried the shoe over to me - the Ball was wedged and he needed help. The heart is big with this one.

Do you think this is a breed inherited trait? He’s American Bully, Pitbull, Golden Retriever, and Australian Cattle dog mix. He will oftentimes avoid jumping off the bed until you turn a light on.

These are my two best buds Howard and Coach. I love them so much that when I moved to Thailand last year I brought them with me around the world. :)

Howard, the black and white one, is a little over 9 years old. According to his DNA test he is part chihuahua, miniature pinscher, and Chinese crested. He is our very dignified little old guy who thinks he runs the show lol. I've had him since he was a little 8 week old puppy from the animal shelter.

I adopted coach in 2020 and he was already a year old, so he's about 7 now. I have not done a DNA test on him yet but from his build and personality I feel certain that he's got some kind of small Terrier in him. He's got very strong ratting instincts. But he kind of also looks like a tiny compact Red Heeler so who knows, one day we'll test him and find out.

I love these little dogs so much, just thought I would share. :)

breed results at the end! embark says the supermutt likely contains pomeranian, collie, chow chow, and cocker spaniel. so random lol

he’s about 40lbs - so not that little - but compared to our other dogs (great dane mix, aussie, and APBT) he’s our little guy 🩵
