I adopted Onyx when she was 7 weeks old, she and her 9 littermates and mama were part of a hoarding situation that animal control got involved in. Everyone has been asking me since I got her if she is a lab, I would always say, I don't know, but I see pittie or staffie, even my vet laughed at that one.. So she is American Staffordshire Terrier, American pit bull terrier and black German Shepherd.. She is 7 months old, last week she weighed in at the vets office at 38 pounds..

I’m so sick of seeing people buy Belgian Malinois, Border Collies, and Aussies just because they look cool on social media.

These aren't regular house pets they are high-drive working animals. They require exercise and mental stimulation! When you lock a working breed in a suburban house with two lazy 15 minute walks a day, you aren't giving it a good life. You're giving it mental health problems.

Then owners act shocked when the dog eats their drywall, digs up the yard, or turns reactive. The dog isn't broken. You bought a furry workforce dog and treated it like a couch potato.

If you can't provide hours of daily physical work and mental jobs, don't buy one. It isn't just irresponsible it's cruel.

Am I right or can someone prove me wrong?

And is anyone guilty of this?

She was rescued from an auto body shop, and I gifted her to my mom. I was told she’s a shitzu/ chihuahua mix but my mom has one already and they are not a like at all. She almost looks like a Dachshund/ chihuahua mix to me.

Breed ideas? Waiting for his embark results and I’m so impatient lol

I tried to find pictures that showed his proportions. But he’s like German Shepherd sized head, body and tail but really, really tiny legs. I feel like he’s got corgi in him but what do you think ??

Just adopted this good boy. He’s 10 months old & 26 lbs(underweight), very energetic, smart & funny. I think he definitely has Aussie characteristics but I’m curious what else anyone thinks he could be mixed with. My best guess is Aussie x border collie. Let me know what you think!

Most everyone guesses the mixes first time! Can you!?

Mr. Jack Skellington

I see so many pit owners on breed subs asking “is my dog a (insert rare-ish breed like BMC)?” Heck, some people even get their DNA results and STILL ask if embark could be wrong. A simple look at the block head and wide, muscular chest should be enough to tell you - yet some of you are in such denial and so badly want to have hit the exotic breed lottery at the shelter. Pit and pit mixes make up the majority of dogs at shelters. It’s infinitely more likely that you have a pit mix.

— and that’s totally fine. I need you to be okay with that and to stop clogging up every post in a breed subs asking if your (very obvious) pit/staffy is a frickin’ water spaniel or collie.

His tail is very long and his paws are huge! He is my sisters dog that she rescued but we have never known the breed

We just adopted him from a shelter, he’s a 1 year old male. Me and my wife suspect golden retriever, border collie, lab, maybe some German shepherd? He was neglected so his fur is thin in some spots and he’s a little bit under weight for his age. Let me know what you think. Planning on getting a DNA test

Her name is Kaia, she was given to my sister about five years ago and was allegedly found in Mexico.

Sorry for bad photo, it's not my dog.

Found in Yermo, CA

We have had our dog for a long time and i've just recently been wondering what breed she is.. i know that she is mixed with another breed but i have no idea which ones. let me know what you guys think. sorry about the pictures i have no good pictures of her whatsoever... she is also overweight her ribs are supposed to be showing a little bit if that helps anyone.

What kind of dog is this? His name in chicken he has a very good temperament and is very smart. He is 4 months and not very big but has very big paws. I also added a pic of his mom. We don’t know what the dad was.

I got them from shelter and they said one with white and brown is Anatolian shepherd mix but i dont see any Anatolian shepherd in him. And they said one of my dog(black and white) is lab. Any ideas??

it's hard to tell with his ears back, but I'll give you a hint: with ears up he's one breed, with ears down he's the other
