Because she has more money than sense, she has had his DNA tested and he is a mixture of 17 breeds. A point to anyone who gets one right -and if you get 10 points I’ll make a small donation to the Dog’s Trust in your name. Oh, he came from Crete.

Lovely dog and a fun guessing game! Thanks for sharing @CurlewKate !

I’ve added a few more pictures to encourage more guesses. One in particular seems to me to be very disgnostic

Can't believe he is a mixture of so many breeds but has no Jack Russell in him !

Allegedly, someone once asked the Queen about her dorgis (while low, corgis are generally taller than dachshunds). Supposedly she replied that they used a brick.

In reality disparate pairings can occur so long as the bitch is the larger animal. I once saw a local newspaper item about a family who'd assumed their male dachshund and female Rottweiler were fine together un-neutered.

I remember what must be the same article (although I suppose you could have two idiots with those breeds)! The puppies looked rather cute, ISTR.

There’s some good ‘Pointless’ answers on this thread.

Here, the DNA is Dietary Nutrition Added!!!

Thank you all for playing-it's been fun! I am too much in awe of your canine knowledge to choose a winner but honourable mention to @tortoiseshellcats who suggested Azawakh! And to everyone who pointed out that he is 100% Good Boy.

Instead of the Dog's Trust, I have bunged a donation to a lovely small local rescue. They do amazing and creative work in the area, and they are called Happy Endings. Which makes me laugh every time. I hope some of you are as juvenile as I am! Thank you all.

Great name, summons up the image of joyous tail wagging as each dog goes to their forever home.Smile

Fraaahnces · 11/01/2024 12:56

I have always wanted to know what kind Prague Ratters were. (I described them as looking like a cross between an Italian greyhound and a Doberman.)
Now I am off to google Azawakh which absolutely sounds like it should be living with Hagrid.

CurlewKate · 11/01/2024 13:53

@ErrolTheDragon yes-that's a lovely image.

However, very old inhabitants of Mumsnet know not to google dragon butter.....

@Fraaahnces If you like sight hound types, the Azawakh is the most beautiful
Dog I have EVER seen!

I bet Arawaks(must remember this for Countdown or Scrabble) have never been googled so much before!

Fraaahnces · 12/01/2024 00:32

@CurlewKate They actually remind me a bit of Dobby, but I think they’re adorable. I’m more of a Spitz breed lady myself…. This is my newly-washed and still slightly damp Shiloh Shepherd Ivy trying to get me to convince my 19y/o DD to share her sausage roll. (Normally very fluffy, not spiky or covered in feathers.) She is afraid of dogs (even the tiniest ones), but guards us vigilantly from any geckoes that dare crawl on the ceiling. She is a 60kg couch potato who has zero belief that personal space is really a thing. Despite it being humid and 30+ degrees, she is still trying to convince me that she is a lap dog. She has the German Shepherd/Malamute “talking” genes and answers whenever she is asked a question. Great company when you have three teenagers locked in their rooms on devices.

No idea but he's gorgeous

Riverlee · 12/01/2024 11:20

@Fraaahnces Thats one big gorgeous fluffball you have there.

Fraaahnces · 13/01/2024 02:34

@Riverlee - thank you! She’s a very eccentric soul but wouldn’t swap her! (Actually think it would be weird having a “normal” dog after her!)

Zoologydragon · 13/01/2024 07:35

Happy endings are a fantastic charity ❤️ we must be in a similar area. We have a happy endings horse
